I don't know whether these count, but, as my Canadian former roommate
liked to say, "What the hell, eh?" IAC, I'll know mire than I knew
before.

In lively tempo, it's a riff tune in the _rock and roll_ rhythm style.

Earlier, slightly, as the title of a record:

The remaining two sides—- _Rock and Roll_ and The Object of My
Affection — were made with Jimmie Grier's orchestra when the girls
were in California.
