Well, Steppenwolf coined the phrase "Heavy Metal Thunder" in Born to be Wild. So that marked the beginning of the rock era and the end of the blues.

The Who and The Kinks and The Beatles were all doing rock well before Steppenwolf.

Still haven't seen anything predating 1934 or any solid case against Run Old Jeremiah being a rock song.

Hard rock, not rock. Please get a brain transplant.

TFW that song is harder than The Kinks and MC5.

Anything predating 1934? How about this?

Solid choice. I would've gone Bach tbh, but that's probably a little obvious.

No no no. If you're gonna do that, this is the obvious choice:

I've long thought somebody should turn this into a heavy metal song. Would be perfect for it. The "aggressive" violin line is a natural heavy metal riff. Even the words would work great as a heavy metal song.

Maybe something by Howlin Wolf. Smokestack Lightning probably outdates this song.

I guess you mean the first song and not when the genre was popularised.



Or maybe Dylan's Maggie's Farm from 1965 from googling around a bit.
