So how did rock ‘n’ roll happen?
It just so happened, I asked my parents for a guitar for Christmas. It had to be an electric guitar—it couldn’t be a folk guitar; it had to be electric. And I thought they weren’t going to do it and they did. So they got me a little … guitar, a little Silvertone, I think it was, and a little amp, and I made a lot of noise the first few days, and then I went to take a guitar lesson with a guitar teacher. And as a kid, you think you’re going to learn it all in one day, and I remember going in and (being) very exuberant and saying: “Teach me how to play rock ‘n’ roll." And the guy looked at me like I was from another planet, you know? I just think the whole thing with the electric guitar and maybe, he didn’t care at all. My take was that he did care, that he didn’t want to teach me rock ‘n’ roll because I was a girl, and so he tried to teach me “On Top of Old Smokey." - Joan Jett
