I’m not quite convinced these are “Rock Classics” as the subtitle claims, but there’s some good music on this CD. The conceit of having every song include “Rock” in the title gets a little worn by the end of this CD. ROCK ‘N’ ROLL FANTASY: ROCK CLASSICS OF THE ’70s & ’80s from 2000 includes a few less common songs like Rod Stewart’s “Sweet Little Rock ‘N’ Roller” next to well-known songs like John Mellencamp’s “R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.”
Do you recognize these songs? Any favorites here? GRADE: B
