Conspicuously absent butt:
Billy Squier - 'Stroke'Heart - 'Barracuda'Hombres - 'Let It Out (Let It All Hang Out)'Black Sabbath, period
Maybe Cafferty - 'On the Dark Side'? Surely Mellencamp had something appropriately butt-y. .38 Special?

I mean yes, of course, there is good butt rock and lame butt rock but(t) in the interests of science we should set our prejudices aside in determining which songs fit. All I am saying is give butt a chance.

why won't you just butt out of this
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Friday, 7 February 2020 18:27 (four years ago) link
My friend and I tried to whittle down a definition, and what we concluded was it had to have a certain lack of ambition (ymmv). That is, it can't be funny on purpose ("Godzilla"), it can't have a clear unified artistic vision (AC/DC, Van Halen, ZZ Top), it just has to be butt-stupid blues-riff based rock. So, like, BTO's "Tacking Care of Business" is a yes, but in our opinion "Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" is a no, since it's got some cool chords in it. "Black Betty" is a no, because that thing is complicated as hell, and we didn't included stuff like Kiss, because Kiss is lame. Boogie always helps hit the buttock sweet spot, but our top picks were stuff like "Smoke On the Water" and for sure "Mississippi Queen" and "We're An American Band." Bad Company's "Feel like Makin' Love" deserves some, er, love, too. We considered stuff like Sabbath and specifically "Iron Man" as kind of honorary ur-butt rock.

That song might be the best butt rock song of all time. It's like the butt rock "Day Tripper."

― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Friday, 7 February 2020 18:43 (four years ago) link
I dunno, when I see that list above I think, no, butt rock is (er) more than a feeling. Like, Dude Looks Like a Lady, it sucks, but Aerosmith is like 90% butt rock and that is not it. And Enter Sandman is not butt rock. And Welcome to the Jungle sure ain't butt rock.
Now, if we were trying to distinguish butt rock from freedom rock, that's tougher ...

That's French rock, don't be a bigot
― ill fuckin put a paste on those (Neanderthal), Friday, 7 February 2020 18:48 (four years ago) link
"Hair of the Dog" indeed an egregious omission. Related: cowbell seems to add a little buttness generally speaking
― Josefa, Friday, 7 February 2020 18:49 (four years ago) link
Josh let’s just agree to, well not exactly disagree, but that I’m completely right about “Ain’t Seen Nothin Yet” and you’re completely wrong

It's between Black Betty and Slow Ride. Slow Ride has the advantage of two tempos: double buttin'. But I think I gotta go Ram Jam.
― stop torturing me ethel (broom air), Friday, 7 February 2020 18:56 (four years ago) link
Foghat’s cover of “I Just Want to Make Love to You” is even more buttrock than “Slow Ride”.
― Mr. Snrub, Friday, 7 February 2020 18:57 (four years ago) link
Oh shit, "Her Strut" is such butt rock. I saw Seger at MSG a few months ago, and not only had I not heard that song since it was on the radio, I think I thought it was ZZ Top!
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 7 February 2020 18:58 (four years ago) link
Does anybody know where I can download the "Hey man is that Freedom Rock?" "Yeah man!" "Well TURN IT UP, MAN!!" commercial?
I swear you kids these days have no idea how good you have it. Back in MY DAY you couldn’t just go to YouTube and type “freedom rock commercial”, oh no.

In leaving out Nazareth, this list is clearly willing to mess with a son of a bitch. Which is a pretty buttrockin' thing to do, but not as buttrockin' as the song itself.

xp, I personally believe buttrock ended in 1979, and anything later is something else. Maybe that Pat Travers song is grandfathered if it was recorded before '80.

Mott’s a bit too glam, piano-y, too “bright”? Not nasty-sounding enough. Definitely Grand Funk though, they are automatically a shoo-in for buttrock
