About this book

Let’s rock! From its thunderous beginnings in the 1960s to its untamed legacy today. Explore the raw, gritty energy of The Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin to the stadium-shaking anthems of Queen and Pink Floyd. Witness the headlines and crank up the volume on the milestones that redefined music into the heartbeat of a generation.

Classic rock, defined by its powerful melodies, guitar-driven anthems, and influences from blues and hard rock, typically ranges from the mid-1960s to the mid-1990s. It gained widespread popularity in the 1970s through AOR (Album-Oriented Rock), frequently showcased on dedicated radio stations, and has showcased countless iconic musicians and bands who have become cultural legends.

Whether you’ve been rocking out for years or are just tuning in, this collection serves up a wild ride through the sounds that changed music forever.
