Okay, name me a rock song from, say, the '70s that is not 4/4. (So with this knowledge, you're a musician, right? What do you play? I'm a guitarist.)
This is an interesting challenge, please let me chime in even though it was addressed to JonC because music production and theory is something I find interest in.
Nearly in the 1970s is "America" by Simon & Garfunkel (1968) in 3/4 time.
"We Are the Champions" by Queen (1977) in 6/8.
"Four Sticks" by Led Zeppelin jumps around multiple time signatures, primarily 5/8 and 6/8. That's also in the 70s.

There's more. I think it is precise to say that most rock songs are in 4/4 time, but it's not a rule that I am aware of.
