Absolutely! Carlo did the opening base run based on sax playing done by Big Al Sears (I believe).
By the bye, since REAL Rock 'n Roll is about: Getting a girl, getting a car, and getting the girl in the car (my age again), I think the greatest rock 'n roll song is "Get Out of My Dream, Get into My Car" by Billy Ocean ("Get in the back seat, baby!")
If that's your criteria: Meatloaf, "Paradise by the Dashboad Lights" (not my choice of best, but better than Billy Ocean.)
