Classic Rock
Classic rock is a genre characterized by its powerful, guitar-driven sound, soaring vocal melodies, and catchy harmonies. Emerging in the late 1960s, it evolved from blues, folk, and psychedelic rock, incorporating complex song structures and conceptual themes. The genre's heyday spanned the 1970s, with iconic bands crafting anthemic, radio-friendly hits that resonated with a generation. Classic rock's cultural significance lies in its ability to tap into the era's social and cultural upheaval, with many artists using their music as a platform for storytelling, social commentary, and personal expression. This genre drew from and influenced a range of styles, including folk rock, hard rock, and prog rock, but its distinct blend of catchy hooks, guitar virtuosity, and introspective lyrics sets it apart.
