In 1952 a disk jockey living in Cleveland, OH, by the name of Alan Freed, coined the term rock and roll while describing some new music on his afternoon radio show.
He borrowed the term from the juke joints of the south. The term 'rock and roll' meant to FORNICATE.
Suddenly a new music genre was born. Freed soon moved to one of the world's largest stations in New York City to do his show.
Seven years later, Freed tearfully resigned amidst a scandal for taking kickbacks to play the music of certain groups.
Five years later, Freed died drunk and broke at the age of 42. The man to name the era became its first victim.
Cultural critic Michael Ventura states:
"...rock 'n roll was a term from the juke joints of the south when a music was being heard that had no name.
...in those juke joints, rock 'n roll hadn't meant the name of music, it meant to f---. When, finally in the mid-'50's, the songs started being played by white people and aired on the radio -- "Rock Around the Clock," "Good Rockin' Tonight," "Reelin' and Rockin'" -- the meaning hadn't changed."
Can music really influence the human body and mind? Nearly every function of the human body is moved by music.
Research shows it affects "digestion, internal secretions, circulation, nutrition, respiration," neural networks of the brain, and one's major internal organs.
Our bodies not only hear music, but we feel it. Many people today claim they no longer pay attention to the words, they simply like the way it feels.
At a recent christian conference on aggression, Pastor Bill Gothard taught:
"The frantic, almost uncontrollable evergy level released at a typical rock concert is often mistaken by the audience and the performers alike as a demonstration of musical artistic ability.
Whether they know it or not, the primary power and draw of this style of music is their "fight or flight" (adrenaline reaction) syndrome."
The article went on to say that once the system is triggered, the body actually gets high off its own internal drug.
A DRUG that is now going undetected in the body of Christ.
