Post a question about a song

What rock & roll song is on the disc sent with Voyager 1?
(which is the only man-made object to ever leave our solar system)

1. Johnny B Goode?

4. That's it!

(I forgot to add "without using Google" to the thread title)

6. I remember when they did it I thought it was a perfect choice

I’m a big Chuck Berry fan, so I didn’t have to look it up.

8. I was fortunate enough to see him perform when I was a kid

(San Francisco Civic Auditorium)

I'm a big Chuck Berry fan too!

13. Wow I envy you. I had a large stack of the little records with the big holes. We had sock hops

2. Johnny B. Goode

That's what most say. But, it's an incomplete answer.
There's actually several classical pieces (Well Tempered Clavier, Rites Of Spring, for example).
Also, there's a blues song by Willie Johnson, and some ethnic tunes in languages other than English.
Don't ask me why I remember that!

7. Didn't know about the Willie Johnson song. Do you know which one

[ProfessorGAC]

12. Dark Was The Night, Cold Was The Ground

I admit I didn't remember which song, so I looked it up.
The whole list, including the story behind it, as well as images in the probe and the methods used are in this cool Wikipedia link.
What I remember back then was that I thought it was a Robert Johnson song, and found out it was Blind Willie Johnson.
Like I said in the other post, I don't know why I remembered this stuff.

5. I remember that!

(I used to watch SNL religiously, every Saturday)

9. What was on the flip side of

the 45 record of "They're Coming to Take Me Away" by Napoleon the thirteenth?

[red dog 1]

10. "They're bringing me back"?

(I do remember that song)

[Mr.Bill]

11. Nope.

I bought the record. I don't know why I remember these things. Head full of useless information. Well, until the internet was invented, anyway.
