Play with rock and pop legends Chuck Berry and Jackson 5 this week!
One of the most popular songs in rock and roll history is “Johnny B. Goode”, by the late Chuck Berry. The song was released in 1958 through famous Chess Records in Chicago, Illinois. Upon its release it charted on Billboard Hot R&B Sides, as well as the Hot 100. Rolling Stone Magazine declared it #7 on its list of “500 Greatest Songs of All Time” and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame included the song in its list of “500 Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll”. Berry sings his personal life-inspired lyrics over a swinging blues progression played by the rhythm section with twangy lead guitar riffs. At just about 60 years later, there’s no denying the song still swings; a true staple of rock and roll.
Keeping up with the theme of record breaking songs, “I Want You Back” by Jackson 5 released in 1969 and stood at #1 on the Soul singles chart as well as the Billboard Hot 100. It was included in Rolling Stone Magazine's “500 Greatest Songs of All Time” as well as standing at #9 of the “100 Greatest Pop Songs Since 1963”. It was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame –deeming it a “musical recording of lasting qualitative and historical significance”. Everything about this song is incredible: The syncopated rhythms between the rhythm section, the funk and glam tone quality on the guitar, Michael Jackson’s killer lead vocal line with supportive harmonies and backup vocals make this song a pure pop gem. By no means would it be complete without the absolute monster bass part- also noted as one of the greatest bass lines of all time! This song will definitely be a challenge but that’s why we wanted it back!
Songs can be purchased individually for £1.59 each. The Rock Band Rivals Season 2 Spotlight Pass can be purchased for £10.79.

2. Is there a list up anywhere of all the songs in this week's challenge?
nothing like the 50% sale of RB1 and RB2 era DLC they did for a few years.Corazon de Leon wrote:1. Do we think there'll be a sale on DLC to mark the tenth anniversary next month? I'd like that.
I actually think Rock Band has been priced pretty well in terms of DLC which probably helps entice me in to buying so much of it (I think I'm at over 1000 songs now 
) Think they were only released for like the last 6 months of 2009 but still.
