In this episode, we sit down with legendary guitarist, singer, and songwriter Warren Haynes for an in-depth conversation tracing his incredible journey from his early days with outlaw country icon David Allan Coe to his defining years with The Allman Brothers Band and Gov’t Mule. At just twenty years old, Haynes hit the road with Coe, cutting his teeth in the unpredictable world of touring life, before going on to co-write “Two of a Kind, Workin’ on a Full House,” which later became a massive hit for Garth Brooks. In this interview, Haynes opens up about the pivotal moments that shaped his career—from recording Pattern Disruptive with Dickey Betts to helping resurrect The Allman Brothers Band in 1989, where his fiery guitar work helped define a new era for the group. We also explore the evolution of Gov’t Mule, a band that transformed from a side project into one of the most respected names in modern blues-rock.

The summer of 1977 remains etched in my memory as an extraordinary period for rock concerts, especially as a 16-year-old. From June to August of that year, I was fortunate to witness live performances by legends such as Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, Emerson Lake & Palmer, and Yes, all at New York's Madison Square Garden. The excitement had already been set earlier in the year with shows from Boston, Foghat, ELO, and Queen. But it didn't stop there; 1977 was filled with memorable concerts, a golden era when attending such events was within easy reach for most teenagers. Fleetwood Mac played two nights at Madison Square Garden at the end of June 1977.. This is the story of what it was like to be there at Madison Square Garden and witness Fleetwood Mac's show on June 30, 1977.

Our article, "Top 10 Haunting Rock Songs," explores a collection of tracks that encapsulate the essence of the word "haunting" beyond its conventional association with horror or the supernatural in popular culture. The concept of being haunted transcends the realm of ghost stories and eerie tales, extending into the personal domain where individuals are often haunted by indelible memories from their pasts. These memories, both cherished and painful, have a persistent presence in one's mind, embodying the true spirit of being "haunted by the past." Rock music, with its frequent exploration of themes such as lost love and bygone moments, is replete with songs that resonate with this deeper meaning of haunting. Our selection process was meticulous, aiming to spotlight songs that truly reflect the profound, original sense of the term. The article feature music by The Doors, Fleetwood Mac, Tom Waits, and more.

For those who came of age in the 1970s and 80s, Leo Sayer's tunes became integral to the soundtrack of their formative years. His back-to-back number one hits in 1977, "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" and "When I Need You," have left an indelible mark on the collective memory of that generation. Beyond these chart-toppers, Leo Sayer's career is distinguished by a wealth of hit songs, critically acclaimed albums, and significant commercial achievements, showcasing his dedication as both a songwriter and a performer. He also is a really nice person to talk with. That point is clearly evident in my wonderful conversation with Leo Sayer, which we hope you enjoy from ClassicRockHistory.com

If you were a child of the '60s and '70s, chances are the Chambers Brothers were a staple in your music collection. With six studio albums released from 1967 to 1975, and an additional eight live albums, the band made a significant mark on the music charts, most notably with their legendary hit “Time Has Come Today.” Decades on, Lester Chambers, the band's lead singer, continues to thrive musically with the band Moonalice. Among the many joys of being part of this psychedelic soul ensemble, Lester particularly cherishes the opportunity to collaborate with his son Dylan in the group.
