Classic Rock

Staring Into Nothing's new album 'Power' combines shimmering flavors of progressive rock with cutting social commentary. Intrigued by the record's lyrical thrust, I talked with Steve Rogers about the band’s impetus and direction.

'Last of the West Side Cowboys' is simply marvelous. The melody rumbles and rolls along with egregious dynamism, while the rhythm vibrates with a pulsing irresistible pattern. Goddess’ grating voice magnifies the music's electrical sparkle. All these elements combined make it a winner.

This is a beautiful album, full of sumptuous rich melodies laced with exquisite, mellow energy. Reed’s voice is easy to listen to, placid and satisfying. 'If All the World Were Right' is perfect for chilling on a sunny afternoon.

'Eleven Nine' is a strong album, especially if you’re a fan of Neil Young. The melodies, although a bit lugubrious, are catchy, and Anders’ voice is easy to listen to. Whether you agree or disagree with the political implications, 'Eleven Nine' is worthwhile simply for the music.

Veterans such as Neil Young, Ryan Adams, blues great Joe Bonamassa, Bjork, The War On Drugs, St. Vincent, The National, Spoon, and Living Colour made stellar releases. Favorite new artist: Jay Som.

Spurned from British folk, Hegarty is riding the wave to the movement's new summit.

With iconic special guests including Steven Tyler, Buddy Guy, and ZZ Top's Billy F. Gibbons, Jeff Beck's 'Live at the Hollywood Bowl' is an essential collector's item for longtime fans. Period.

Other than The Beatles, Black Sabbath is perhaps the most influential band in rock history. February 4, 2017 is forever marked as the final date of their last ever tour. It was a one of a kind celebration of their enduring legacy. And the Angelic Sessions is a bonus treat.

An original rock musical makes its long-awaited debut at San Antonio's Josephine Theatre.

The Who, 2017 incarnation, rocks the Royal Albert Hall with a complete reading of their landmark rock opera 'Tommy' and select gems from throughout their career.
