Rock On – Classic Rock Only Hot Playlist


Classic Rock Playlist

 

Evans Liberal Politics, September 24, 2010, by Paul Evans:

We have been collecting music to stream for you on Evans Liberal Politics since we started this site, really as an add on to my Evans Web Design website, back in November of 2008. There are 190 songs collected together on Paul’s Playlist of Rock and Pop Hits, which we have painstakingly gathered together for our viewers, in some cases paying as much as $30 or more each for the rights to stream a particular song on the playlist. Later we learned how to do this for free.

Recently we have been collecting music from the playlist which represent particular genres of music together in blog posts. On September 21st we had for you Songs of Christian Faith from A Liberal, which made up some 24 Christian rock tracks. This was followed yesterday by our Electronic Music: Electro-House-Trance-Techno-Dance-World-Jazz-Fusion-New Age Music, which has 34 of the best electronic tracks anywhere (IMHO), with a few jazz and new age sounds.

With this post we just about complete the process, for here we have gathered together our best hard rockin’, smokin,’ wailing classic rock tracks for you, together in one place. About the only thing left is to make a post of the pop sounds, which we hope to do shortly. Necessarily, the selection of rock tracks reflects my own liberal bias and what I like in rock music, and the fact that I now (somehow) am 53 years old. I’ve tried to limit this playlist to rock music by commercial artists we all know and love. These are the songs of my life, and these are also my very favorite classic rock tracks. I hope you enjoy my efforts:
