Rock Legend Lita Ford Can’t Run Away From Rockers’ Block

40 years' worth of material is at BlastEcho's disposal. Will she dispose of it?

Some music artists have released literally hundreds of songs over the years, to say nothing of the ones deemed too garbage-y to release. BlastEcho wondered if those involved in recording so many songs could remember them all. Enter Rockers’ Block.

For each Rockers’ Block contestant, we play five random songs from their catalog each song from the beginning, to see how long it takes for them to guess (well, maybe guess isn’t the right word) the correct song. Then once they do (hopefully), they talk a bit about the song.


Including her contributions to the seminal all-girl (and we do mean girl) punk-rock group The Runaways, Lita Ford has been making music for 40 years. That’s a lot of riffs to remember or, as we found out on one occasion during this episode of Rockers’ Block, forget. BlastEcho caught up with Ford minutes after a headlining performance in Algonquin, Illinois. She was in great spirits, which matched her memory. One song, as you’ll soon see and hear, she nailed in near record time (if, in fact, we were keeping records — which we’re not).

Anyway, have at it!

P.S. The full songs are below, if you think you can do better than Ford did…
