^^^ Great song.

I’ve seen three votes for Joan Jett… I Love Rock and Roll.

IROC 04-13-2023 03:13 AM

More honorable mentions with a Southern slant (since I'm a southern boy):

Train, Train - Blackfoot
Flirtin' with Disaster - Molly Hatchet
Green Grass and High Tides - Marshall Tucker Band

If I was forced to pick one best song (gun to my head):

Time - Pink Floyd

Not really 'rock and roll', though.

I think Baz said every other day you can mention one contender if you already have voted.

Montrose - Rock Candy

Not enough coffee or too much Green Grass will cause that :D

Now that I'm older, my fave is DOCTOR, DOCTOR by UFO

I'm torn between "Knock Three Times" or "Tie a Yellow Ribbon" by TO & Dawn.

70's Gold!

Face it fellas…Burt Bacharach nailed it:

Wives and Lovers

Hey, little girl
Comb your hair, fix your make-up
Soon he will open the door
Don't think because
There's a ring on your finger
You needn't try any more

For wives should always be lovers, too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
I'm warning you

Day after day
There are girls at the office
And men will always be men
Don't send him off
With your hair still in curlers
You may not see him again

For wives should always be lovers, too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
He's almost here

Hey, little girl
Better wear something pretty
Something you'd wear to go to the city
And dim all the lights
Pour the wine, start the music
Time to get ready for love

Oh, time to get ready
Time to get ready
Time to get ready
For love

Honestly, a Chuck Berry song. The man was responsible for 98% of what came next...


for a while. Carl Perkins is in the class, too. Then you'd have to go back to records that we never got to hear, but some did.

+100 Per Wiki, he pioneered Rock and Roll.

Wrote Promised Land in jail. Asked for a US map because he did not know detailed geography.

Workin' on a T-bone steak a la carte (pronounced a la carty)
Flying over to the Golden State
When The pilot told us in thirteen minutes
He would set us at the terminal gate

Swing low chariot, come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone
Cut your engines and cool your wings
And let me make it to the telephone

Los Angeles give me Norfolk, Virginia
Tidewater four ten o nine
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy is on the line
