One of the most iconic scenes in film history is Marty McFly’s guitar solo in the movie Back to the Future. Michael J. Fox’s incredible performance takes place in the middle of his rendition of Chuck Berry’s “Johnny B. Goode” during the high school prom of Marty’s parents, as he travels back in time to ensure his parents share their first kiss at the dance so that he does not get erased from history.
Fox learned how to play “Johnny B. Goode” for the movie, and that’s why his finger movements seem to match the audio so well. However, the actual audio we hear in the film is from another performer named Tim May, according to ScreenRant.
The vocals that we hear in the movie is not Fox’s but the Jack Mack and the Heart Attack singer Mark Campbell. As for Fox’s dance moves, those were all performed by him, but the dancing was taught to him by choreographer Brad Jeffries.
Who really played guitar during Marty McFly’s ‘Johnny B. Goode’ performance?
