Although many believe that the Teddy Boy style and phenomenon appeared in Britain during the mid 1950's as a rebellious side effect to the introduction of American Rock'n'Roll music. The Teddy Boy is actually a uniquely British phenomenon and pre-dates the introduction of American Rock'n'Roll music into Britain in late 1955 by Bill Haley & his Comets by at least five years or so.
But when Rock 'n' Roll did hit Britain in 1955, the music would quickly become adopted by Britain's Teddy Boys and from that point onward's the style and the music became inseparable.
