Long description
Modern rock would not be what it is today were it not for the innovative stylings of such bands from the '60s and '70s as Led Zeppelin, The Who, Pink Floyd, The Eagles and AC/DC. Guitar World Presents Classic Rock is a fascinating look back at the artists who shaped rock and roll forever. Read the inside story of how songs like The Allman Brothers' "Ramblin' Man", The Doors' "Light My Fire", The Eagles' "Hotel California" and Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Freebird" were created; learn the complete history of Neil Young; let Aerosmith take you album-by-album through their illustrious career; and read a tribute to the late, great Jerry Garcia. Also features interviews with some of the most legendary names in rock guitar, including Pete Townshend, Angus Young, David Gilmour, Frank Zappa and Billy Gibbons. No book embraces rock and roll's magnificent past with as much passion and detail as Guitar World Presents Classic Rock.
