A large episode: Bill Haley is credited with putting out the frst rock and roll record, the Beatles run out of steam, the Rolling Stones return to their roots, Amon Duul invents Krautrock, then a note about talking about the avant garde on a popular music podcast. Then, Desmond Dekker brings Jamaican music to the UK and Fairport Convention creates UK folk rock. Rufus makes slick funk and two instrumental prog rock groups put out their third albums.

Savatage discover Andrew Llloyd Webber in 1989 and Pestilence release an excellent death metal record. Finally, Kelis debuts in 1999.
