anti rock video

The video I picked is called "Humor of a preacher condemning Rock n' Roll". That's just what the video is. It opens as a preacher appears,

and begins to talk and try to relate to the youth of that time period by saying why they enjoy rock music. It's quite entertaining. But the truth is,

I don't think he was trying to be funny or entertaining. He honestly thought rock and roll music was having a bad effect on the teenagers of that time..

One of the most interesting things i found during studying this topic was how negative the genre was viewed in it's early days.

Rock is still viewed not a very holy pursuit. Even with that being true, they are not preaching about it in churches.. at least not the kind of church I go to.
