Some seriously killer rock songs dropped in 1975. And I bet just about every 70s kid out there who loved rock music knows the words to each song on our list below. Let\u2019s take a walk down memory lane and dive into some 1975 classics, shall we?<\/p>\n
\u201cSlow Ride\u201d by Foghat from \u2018Fool For The City\u2019<\/p>\n
Nick Jameson\u2019s killer bassline on \u201cSlow Ride\u201d just can\u2019t be beat. The whole of the song is a jam-turned-single for the ages. This hard rock song from Foghat made it to No. 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 14 in Canada.<\/p>\n
\u201cLove Is The Drug\u201d by Roxy Music from \u2018Siren\u2019<\/p>\n
Out of many of the songs Roxy Music is known for, \u201cLove Is The Drug\u201d might just be the most danceable and fun to sing along to. \u201cLove Is The Drug\u201d was a huge hit in the UK, peaking at No. 2. In the US, though, it was a milder hit, peaking at No. 30 on the Hot 100 chart. Either way, it\u2019s an amazing song. It was also named<\/a> one of the most influential tunes that shaped rock and roll by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n \u201cWalk This Way\u201d by Aerosmith from \u2018Toys In The Attic\u2019<\/p>\n This song didn\u2019t get a ton of love back in 1975. But it did finally get some recognition after a re-release in 1976 and later in 1986 via Run-D.M.C.\u2019s stylings. Even if you weren\u2019t alive in the 70s, you can probably sing along to the chorus of \u201cWalk This Way\u201d by Aerosmith<\/a> with ease. After its re-release in 1976, \u201cWalk This Way\u201d peaked at No. 10 on the Hot 100 chart.<\/p>\n \u201cWish You Were Here\u201d by Pink Floyd from \u2018Wish You Were Here\u2019<\/p>\n A bit of a heartbreaker about former Pink Floyd member Syd Barrett, \u201cWish You Were Here\u201d is a staple among many a 70s audiophile. And even if you weren\u2019t the biggest Pink Floyd fan in 1975, I bet you know the words to this entry on our list of rock songs. This prog-rock gem wasn\u2019t released as a single off the album of the same name, so it didn\u2019t chart. But it has since become one of the most important songs in Pink Floyd\u2019s discography.<\/p>\n Photo via Getty Images<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Some seriously killer rock songs dropped in 1975.
