ClassicRockMusicBlog.com Rveals Inside Information about Classic Rock from Both Familiar and Surprising Sources

Posted in Music

Classic Rock Music Blog recently opened with a view of classic rock from both traditional rock music sources as well as discoveries about classic rock from sources as diverse as Science Daily. Blog author Todd Whitesel, former editor of rock magazines Goldmine and Discoveries, get info from sources in the music business that he acquired over his time with those magazines to obtain exclusive interviews with classic rockers from the past, the latest about lost classic groups and performers, news, videos, music reviews and more.

“My goal,” said Whitesel, “is to offer readers an assortment of info about classic rock that they can’t get anywhere else.” Recent articles included the usual rock news about reunion tours and new albums by classic rock acts. But they have also investigated such subjects as scientific research performed on the sound frequencies of the legendary, and puzzling, chord with which the Beatles opened the song “A Hard Day’s Night,” a chord whose composition has confounded musicians for decades.

Whitesel seeks also to enlarge the boundaries of classic rock for viewers. He uses his eye for talent to introduce emerging artists who stand to define the next generation of classic rock. “Although most people view classic rock as something in the past, that isn’t all it is,” Whitesel asserts. “Rock grows and expands in different directions all the time. I want to let people know about new performers who demonstrate the same potential for making an ongoing role in the development of rock music that previous classic rock artists demonstrated when they first appeared on the scene.”

Classic Rock Music Blog already has grown a striking assortment of reviews, music videos, interviews, and news. Whitesel delivers exclusive interviews with Judas Priest vocalist Rob Halford, and Uriah Heep founding member Mick Box, among others. Whitesel also includes some of his pre-CRMB features, covering legends like Rory Gallagher.

Whitesel also explores rock history to uncover performers whose talent never fully received its due. This is demonstrated in an exclusive interview with singer Stan Nunnery. Nunnery went largely unnoticed in the 1970s. His music, however, has been compared favorably to legends James Taylor, Gordon Lightfoot, Jackson Browne, and Dan Fogelberg, and is beginning to win him attention today.

Beyond the news, interviews, and a wide range of reviews, ClassicRockMusicBlog offers readers a varied assortment of features. Top 10 lists identify performers, songs, and even guitar solos that serious rock enthusiasts should not miss. And the videos highlighted on the website provide viewers with a growing assortment of some of the most memorable moments in classic rock.

Ultimately, Classic Rock Music Blog tackles an ambitious task. It doesn’t stop at seeking to keep readers up to date on news of the performers who define classic rock. It seeks also to unearth previously little-known gems both from the past five decades and on the horizons of today’s rock scene.
