American rhythm and blues (R&B) arose during the post-World War II years
to provide an important link between jump blues and rock and roll--and by
the late 1950s, soul. Welding the raunch of jump blues legend Amos Milburn
onto a threadbare chassis of shuffling rhythms and concise songs, the biggest
R&B stars of the '50s made records that came from the blues but aimed for
the dance floor. The hits came in droves as Big Maybelle's "Ring Dang Dilly,"
oft-overlooked Little Willie John's "Let Them Talk," "5-10-15 Hours" by Ruth
Brown, and R&B kingpin Ray Charles' "I Got a Woman" have remained signature
R&B tunes to this day. Underscoring the heavy influence R&B wielded on the
nascent rock and roll of the mid-'50s, Big Maybelle and Little Willie John
recorded arguably definitive versions of, respectively, "Whole Lot of Shakin'
Goin' On" and "Fever" well before the better-known rock and roll versions
were set to wax. As the end of the '50s drew near, R&B became increasingly
smooth and made its move onto the pop charts, but its original grit-and-
holler approach would become the driving force behind the soul music that
would sweep the nation in the '60s.
