Rock and Culture Anniversaries

Led Zeppelin stars had already shocked fans when they reunited for MTV's 'Unledded' special.

Future Led Zeppelin star actually got his solo start decades before 1988's 'Outrider.'

They were winding down, but there were still songs the band's U.S. label had never put on an album.

That raspy howl may have been new to some, but he'd actually been chipping away at mainstream success for years.

He'd been out drinking with friends when the casual evening took a terrible turn.

"We’re all thankful for both of them, but especially for both of them combined."

At the time, one of his defining songs didn’t yet have its famous title.

Crazy or not, Van Halen's cofounding frontman was bound for a solo career.

There were plenty of memorable gigs throughout his too-brief career, but none was more infamous than this one.

He already had a pair of Top 10 solo albums to his credit, plus a day job in a little band called Genesis.

He didn't roll over and play dead when the famous advice columnist criticized "Cold Ethyl."

This disaster's origins can be traced in part to the practice of general admission seating.
