    Take a minute to listen to the similarities and differences between the original versions and Elvis Presley’s rendition of the same song. Note how Presley, perhaps because of his upbringing in Memphis at the intersection of the music from the lower Mississippi Delta (Crudup’s blues) and Kentucky (Monroe’s bluegrass), absorbed influences from both regions, hybridizing them into a single style that for a time was relatively unique to the Memphis region.

    Take a minute to listen to these various clips of music. Blue Suede Shoes topped the pop, R&B and Country Music charts simultaneously. Chuck Berry’s Maybellene represents a similar hybridization of styles but represents a reversal of the direction of ethnic appropriation. Berry was an African-American who borrowed elements from white musicians.
