Abstract
Over time, many musicians have shown us what good rock and roll music is all about. Musicians such as Elvis Presley (the king of rock and roll), Jim Morrison (lead singer and songwriter for the 'Doors'), and Kurt Cobain (musical genius from 'Nirvana'), are discussed in this paper to try and understand the fascination of rock and roll.

From the Paper
"Kurt Cobain was the lead singer and guitarist of Nirvana. He started the group with Krist Novoselic, a fellow punk rock devotee. They developed a style that became known as "Grunge Music". "It was a style that evolved as a reaction against the perceived superficiality of 1980s stadium rock and the over the top metal bands of the time" (5). Nirvana was an underground band with a devoted following. After four years of playing, the band just exploded into the mainstream. Cobain struggled with the band's success and felt the success was contradictory to their beliefs and what they stood for. The Nirvana song, "Smells Like Teen Spirit", became the anthem for Generation X. (3)"
