A-Z Of Rock: J Part 1

Welcome to our weekly alphabet themed rock post! In this post we will talk about a specific letter of the alphabet and associate it with all things rock music!

This will include a band with that letter, a song as well as a rocker. There is an accompanying playlist so that the selected songs can be enjoyed! Click the Spotify link below and remember to save it!

Band

This band is a favourite for many. Myself included! The melancholic tune, which here has turned into somewhat of a fun song. Somehow! Joy Division are timeless.

Joy Division – Love Will Tear Us Apart (All Rights Are Retained By Joy Division)

Song

You want something to make your day better, then this song by Chuck Berry will surely do it. The old school stylings of it and playful nature always put a smile on my face.

Chuck Berry – Johnny B. Goode (All Rights Are Retained By Chuck Berry)

Rocker

Jimi Hendrix… Was there really going to be another selection for this one? I selected this song purely because it shows that not only could he pen his own songs but more importantly make the songs of others even better.

Jimi Hendrix – All Along The Watchtower (All Rights Are Retained By Jimi Hendrix)

    There’s a clip from the Stephen Colbert show that was making the rounds on TikTok for a while. In it, Keanu Reeves was his guest, and Colbert asked him “if you are in an island. It can only listen to one song for the rest of your life, which song would it be?” Reeves said, said “ love will tear us apart“ by joy division.

    I can’t say I disagree with him

        That’s. True.
        the point of the question is “what song would you choose to listen to forever if you could ONLY choose one?” He even explains that is not an infinite loop thing. It’s more like “if you could only hear one song when you turn in the radio, what song would you choose?”

          Oh well in that case its fair enough 🙂 I’d go with Ace Of Spades – Motorhead 🙂

      How about a link to the playlist you’re making? I’d be curious to hear what you’re putting together.

    Johnny was always good to me loved dancing to this during high school dances and it was still a popular hit in the 1970s.

        Here in Oz it’s about $3,500 AUD which is roughly $2,300 USD
        Probably why it’s called the bass of doom 😂
