Abstract
Abstract Everyone seems agreed, the music’s lovers and loathers alike, that rock and roll means sex; everyone assumes that this meaning comes with the beat. I don’t, and in this chapter I suggest that if rock does sometimes mean sex it is for sociological, not musicological reasons. (And besides, as the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ casual male chauvinism makes clear, in this context sex is an essentially sociological sort of thing, anyway.) Deliberately misreading the Chili’s point, then, I will start this chapter with the concept of fun.
