Jazz and rock

Author's name: Mirna Al Mahdi

“She hummed an Elvis Presley song and went down to the kitchen. She looked at its tidiness, her hands on her hips proudly. No dirty dishes in the sink, the floor sparkled, the walls were shining, and her husband’s head was buried in the planter. Wasn’t that every sensible wife’s dream? As for him, he put on his Walkman and drummed to the rhythm of a Rolling Stones song, watching his girlfriend hide the evidence of his guilt.” What is the connection between a jazz-loving wife in the 1960s and a rock-loving teenager in the 1980s? Are there any songs in their playlists? You’ll discover this in the first part of the Perfect Assassin’s Playlist series, which includes a remixed version of “Thirteen” and “Rock and Roll.”
