3. The History of Pop
You could say that the songs of music hall were the first
real pop songs, written by professionals and widely
performed for audiences. That dates back to the Victorian
era, when a performer needed a catchy, identifiable song.
Things changed with the advent of recording, early in the
20th century. With that, music had the chance to be much
more widely disseminated. Records, played at 78 rpm on
wind-up gramophones, were relatively cheap.
In America, that led to a breed of professional songwriters
in New York who wrote pieces intended to be recorded
and sell well - Tin Pan Alley. They were largely hacks, but
did produce some beautiful material. London had its own
equivalent as the music business became centered on
Denmark Street in the West End.

6. Development of Pop
While various forms of commercially produced popular music had
existed in Great Britain for several centuries, what is now
understood as British pop music emerged in the mid-to late 1950s
as a softer alternative to rock 'n' roll and later to rock music. While
these basic elements of the genre have remained fairly constant,
pop music has absorbed influences from most other forms of
popular music, particularly borrowing from the development of rock
music, and utilizing key technological innovations to produce new
variations on existing themes. From the British Invasion of the
1960s, led by The Beatles, British pop music has alternated
between acts and genres with national appeal and those with
international success that have had a considerable impact on the
development of the wider genre and on popular music in general.
