“Rock and Roll“, also known as “The Hey Song“, is a song performed by British glam rocker Gary Glitter that was released in 1972 as a single and on the album Glitter.
Co-written by Glitter and Mike Leander, the song is in two parts: Part 1 is a vocal track reflecting on the history of the genre, and Part 2 is a mostly instrumental piece. Both parts were popular in Britain, and the single went to #2 on the British charts. In concert, Glitter merged both into one performance.
In the US, the instrumental portion (Part 2) attracted most of the attention; it hit #7 on the Billboard Hot 100. The US mono 45, which is mixed different from the LP, clocks in at 3:10, while it runs 2:58 on the US LP. In France; Part 1 was the successful side, reaching #1. In the UK, “Rock and Roll“ was one of over 20 hit singles for Glitter.
