Sometimes I wonder who lists like this are for. Classic rock fans, you'd say, but I suspect they will probably just listen to the old stuff these artists release. When you go the Ultimate Classic Rock website and actually read they write-ups they are so lacking in love, passion, detail and sometimes even praise that I sometimes wonder if the UCR team actually listened to the albums themselves or just list all the releases by artists their readers might have heard of.
