Let there be (songs about) rock

History, Society & Culture

LISTEN TO PODCAST NOW

There was some great rock in the 70s. But also, as it happens, some great songs with the word rock in the title. This week Marty and Venetia pull together a collection of songs that reference rock in some way, because… well… why not. Whether you like to rock it out, rock your baby or collect rocks, you’ve come to the right place. So let’s rock!
