Rock music, or rock for short, serves as a generic term for music styles that have emerged since the late 1960s from the mixing of rock 'n' roll of the late 1950s and early 1960s with other styles of music such as B. beat music and blues have developed. Many genres within rock music are identified with individual youth cultures.
Parallel to the emancipation of the long-playing record from the single, a completely new treatment of the record sleeves developed from the mid-1960s, which had never existed before in any music genre. An art form of its own emerged that tolerated no restrictions whatsoever and for which Klaus Voormann and Peter Blake for the Beatles, Storm Thorgerson for Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd as well as Doug Johnson for Tina Turner or Judas Priest deserved credit made. In this context, it also became common to design a separate band logo for each band.
