Electric guitars and other amplified instruments emerged in the 1950s and influenced the development of rock music from blues, boogie, jazz, gospel, R&B, and country. Rock and roll came to dominate the popular music charts in the 1960s as artists like Elvis Presley and The Beatles achieved success. The 1970s saw the breakup of The Beatles but also the rise of new rock styles like singer-songwriters, soft rock, and glitter rock as well as successful solo careers from former Beatles members.
