Stroll On

"Stroll On" is a song written by Jeff Beck and recorded by The Yardbirds. It was released in 1966 on their album Yardbirds. The song is notable for its distorted guitar riffs and driving rhythm. It's essentially a revamped version of the blues standard "Train Kept A-Rollin'," reworked with a heavier, more aggressive sound. The song's performance is particularly remembered for its appearance in the 1966 film Blow-Up, directed by Michelangelo Antonioni. During the film's performance scene, Jeff Beck dramatically smashes his guitar on stage, which has become an iconic moment in rock and roll history. "Stroll On" is considered a key early example of hard rock and proto-punk, influencing many subsequent guitarists and bands.
