When it comes to dissecting the musical connections between artists, bands and genres, there is no better visual representation than the posters that come out of UK-based design house Dorothy. After tackling the History of Alternative Music, the History of Hip-Hop and the History of Dance Music / Rave Culture, Dorothy have finally set their sites on chronicling the history of Rock and Roll with their latest print. As you might imagine, this print that’s mapped out on the circuit board of a guitar amplifier is an absolute doozy. Sure, you’ll find all the big names like The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Zeppelin, The Beatles, Metallica, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Elvis, Chuck Berry, Radiohead, Bob Dylan, Buddy Holly and Robert Johnson, but this Rock and Roll Love Blueprint celebrates more than 1,400 different musicians, artists, songwriters and producers that have been attributed to almost every related genre from blue, gospel and jazz, to country, boogie-woogie, doo-wop and everything else that led to the creation of what we now consider Rock N’ Roll. This is the end all, be all print for any music lovers in your life.
