A few days ago we learned of Mick Fleetwood’s new book ‘Love That Burns: A Chronicle of Fleetwood Mac, Volume One: 1967–1974,’ and now we go down under for the best rock book (or stocking stuffer) of the year with the ‘AC/DC, the Complete Story. The book is nearly 150 pages of inside info, ranging […]
The Elton John AIDS Foundation celebrates 25 years in 2017, often times handing out honors for those that have distinguished themselves in helping others.

Dr. Hook hit the charts in the mid-70s with “Cover of the Rolling Stone,” as a slight parody suggesting the power the magazine held in the music industry.

Thanks to the GEICO commercial from a few years ago, the Scorpions are back in favor with fans.

Now the Scorpions […]

There may not be another Southern Rock group like 38 Special. We couldn’t imagine getting on the road without throwing in a tape or CD to hear “Caught Up In You,” “Fantasy Girl,” “Hold On Loosely,” “Wild Eyed Southern Boys,” or “Second Chance.” Rockers Don Barnes and Donnie Van Zant grew up in the same […]
