> Is Rock and Roll dead?

Much to the chagrin of its original demographic, "rock and roll" in 
its strictest sense (that is, the sense that "Madonna is not rock and 
roll" that started this discussion) is no longer the driving force of 
popular culture.  Heck, it's no longer the driving force of popular 
music.  Basically, rock and roll now is roughly equivalent to where 
jazz was in the '60s: still popular, but out of the commercial 
mainstream.  Eventually, rock and roll will be where jazz is today: an 
esoteric, specialist taste that is almost invisible in the wider 
popular culture.
