His music defies categorization, drawing inspiration from American folk music, blues, classical music, Brazilian music and Indian music. In several of his later works, he experimented with dissonance and noise; these later works have been compared with musique concrete and industrial music. He founded the Takoma label in the 1960s, which helped launch the career of fellow fingerstyle guitarists Leo Kottke, Peter Lang, and Robbie Basho. Fahey was also noted for his writing skills, having written voluminous liner notes which (among other things) satirized the folk music scholarship of his day. He is the author of two books: Charley Patton, an analysis of the famous Delta bluesman, and How Bluegrass Music Destroyed My Life, a book of essays Grammy Awards of 1997 Kennedy, Wayne Kirkpatrick & Tommy Sims (songwriters) for "Change the World" performed by Eric Clapton & Babyface / Wynonna Best New Artist LeAnn Rimes Alternative Best Alternative Music Performance Beck for Odelay Blues Best Traditional Blues Album James Cotton for Deep in the Blues Best Contemporary Blues Album Keb' Mo' for Just Like You Children's Best Musical Album for Children George Massenburg (producer) & Linda Ronstadt (producer & artist) for Dedicated to the One I Love Best Spoken Word Album for Children Virginia Callaway, Steven Heller (producers) & David Holt (producer & narrator) for Stellaluna Classical Best Orchestral Performance Michael Tilson Thomas (conductor) & the San Francisco Symphony for Prokofiev: Romeo and Juliet (Scenes From the Ballet) Best Classical Vocal Performance James Levine (conductor), Bryn Terfel & the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra Kendra initiative of using the Internet to discover, use, share and pay for digital media such as music, web content, books and films, by creating compromises between the desires of producers and consumers of digital media.

Livgren penned Kansas' hit "Carry On Wayward Son", as well as "Dust In The Wind" and other songs. It was around this time that Livgren became involved in Urantia, a spiritualist pantheistic faith, which was obvious in the music of Kansas' Monolith project. While on tour with the band supporting that album, Livgren converted to Christianity. Dissatisfied with the musical direction the group was taking (partly due to his new found faith), Livgren, Dave Hope, Warren Ham, Michael Gleason and drummer Dennis Holt formed a new band called AD. AD released three albums, Time Line, Art Of the State, Reconstructions. In 1998, Prime Mover was released which was a collection of previously unrecorded AD songs recorded by Livgren and Ham. Livgren continues to record and perform from time
Musical genres are categories which contain music which share a certain style or which have certain elements in common. See also musical form. Some genres, such as Indian music, are geographically defined; others, like Baroque music, are largely defined by chronology. Still others, such as Barbershop, are defined by quite precise technical requirements. Some genres, however, are quite vague, and may be contrived by critics; post-rock, for example, is a term devised and defined by Simon Reynolds. To some extent, all attempts to categorise music will have a degree of artificiality to them, because musicians tend to produce music in any style they choose, without concerning themselves with which genre they are working in. Some people feel that the categorization of music into genres is worse than useless.

Rock and Roll emerged as a defined musical style in America in the 1950s, though elements of rock and roll can be seen in rhythm and blues records as far back as the 1920s. Early rock and roll combined elements of blues, boogie woogie, jazz and rhythm and blues, and is also influenced by traditional folk music, gospel music, black and white, and country and western.
