Rock and Roll has a very different meaning today as compared to what it originally meant. These days anything with guitar and distortion, probably a continuous bass drum thump and near scream vocals.
The core meaning of rock and roll music isn’t exactly that. It basically was in the popularity of back beat and shift to popularity of music that had 4/4, 3/4 time signatures. The music was easier to get a hold of sonically in your mind and just move to it, rather than do elaborate swirls in jazz or big band music.
