Rock Legends
The stories of some of the biggest names in rock music history, from the beginning of their career to the height of their success.
S8, EP5 "Lynyrd Skynyrd"
Southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd rises to prominence in 1973, stressing boisterous hard rock as opposed to the Allman Brothers' more open-ended blues; tragedy strikes in 1977 when Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gaines and Cassie Gaines die in a plane crash.
S8, EP8 "Ramones"
The Ramones, a group of "brothers" from Forest Hills, Queens, help invent punk rock by mastering a simple but extremely effective sound: a combination of speedy grooves, sing-along tunes and deadpan lyrics.
S8, EP10 "The Band"
With its rock-ribbed, austerely precise arrangements and a catalog of songs that linked American folklore to primal myths, the Band -- four Canadians and a Southerner -- makes music that is both earthy and mystical.
S8, EP11 "The Byrds"
The Byrds pioneer folk rock, combining traditional acoustic music with early Sixties pop; the group's signature sunny melodies, lush harmonies and ringing 12-string guitars make for some of the decade's best singles.
S9, EP9 "Jerry Lee Lewis"
Piano-playing rock 'n' roll pioneer Jerry Lee Lewis becomes famous for his high-energy stage presence and controversial life.
