Description

Genre of rock music which came out of the hard heavy blues rock of the late 1960s. Largely designed for dance parties, it tends to feature a repetitive driving rhythm in place of instrumental experimentation found in the more progressive blues-rock bands of the period.Boogie rockers concentrate on the groove, working a steady, chugging back beat, often in shuffle time.
