In the beginning

Why did folks beat a stick on a log? Appease the Gods? Blow off steam? Impress a probable mate? Accompany oral mythologies assisting memory?

I need a good book on how music may have begin. Plus your thoughts.

Then few years back, I found accordion and started to try to repeat to what I listened on this particular phonograph. What was before that, I don't really care.

Launaguge was primative. Banging rhymically and making noise emoted feeling and sometimes a memory. And, as it evolved, people started to like how it made them feel. We humans like things that make us feel good.
