2). Rock Music..Then and Now By : Bob Mathers
I have a friend in the music business who only listens to Rock 'classics'. Hasn't given contemporary Rock music any play. Shame. There is always great music coming out that's worthy of a listen. Although I don't stay up on Rock music the way I did when I was younger, I still like to hear what's being played. I do like listening to Three Doors Down, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nickleback, Bush, and groups like that.

3). Rock-&-Roll Surrogate By : J Square Humboldt
Years ago, upon my first-ever arrival in Paris, there was no doubt as to where I would begin my itinerary ... I went immediately to the Père Lachaise cemetery. That's the final resting place of such luminaries as Voltaire, Victor Hugo, Sarah Berhhardt and Chopin. If I had been there during daylight, I'm sure I would have taken my time to pay my respects to each of them and others.

It was because nobody had ever heard a man sing something like "All Shook Up" and it shook them to the core. Being sexy like that just came.

I've been in rock and roll all my life and I admit it's bit difficult to put Jimi Hendrix above Mick Jagger in terms of brilliant rock and roll stardom, but after watching several movies of both Jimi and Mick in concert, here's why I would do it: 1.

10). The New Formula for Success in the Music Business By : Peter Cross
Hardly anybody in the music business understands that the old formula of how to successfully promote a new act is obsolete. The record companies are all aware that there is a big problem but they have no idea what the solution is. What they do understand is that they are unable to recoup their investment in studio time with a good producer, the cost of a good video, the advertising budget, and the cost of the first promotional road tour from the profits on a first hit CD.
