Certainly the course of music history would have been changed.  Depending on 
the prevailing culture, some other trend of the time would have developed.  
A different blending of folk and blues?  That would be white and black music 
again, but there are other ways the two could have combined.

Clearly The Beatles were the big ambassadors of rock, and the Stones gave it 
a bad boy twist.  Who was the biggest influence on electric guitar work?  
Not Les Paul.  Hendrix?
