If you ARE a classic rock fan and you haven’t yet made your list for Santa, just print this one off! Ladies and Gentlemen…here is our Top 10 List of the best gifts to buy for the classic rock lover this year!
1.) Vinyl Recording USB Turntable
Ion or Numark. I’m thinking of buying one for our house—we still have 3,000 albums in the basement!! If you haven’t put on a record in a while, please do so—the large, warm sound will totally blow your mind! And, now you can save some treasures on CD and travel with them.

2.) REO Speedwagon’s “Not So Silent Night”
Want some pretty vocals accompanied by those Les Paul guitars?! Well, here you are. Surprisingly, very moving performances of classic Christmas songs.

3.) The Art Of Classic Rock
Coffee table book. The next best thing to the music is the art that accompanies it. Great, legendary album covers and posters!

4.) Bruce Springsteen Box Set “The Promise: The Darkness On The Edge Of Town Story”
This is an absolute steal at $70.00! The notebook alone is worth more than that! It’s a true to life copy of Bruce’s own notebook with all his ideas and songs handwritten for the Darkness sessions. Plus the 21 lost songs that didn’t make the album, plus the documentary (which is amazing whether you’re a Bruce fan or not), plus KILLER live footage from shows in 1978, and a whole lot more!

5.) Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame Videos
Now, this is a true treasure, a must, must have. This is what I want! I got to go to some of the induction ceremonies. The speeches and the jam sessions are legendary because of the mix of artists on the stage. Watch the promo video—you’ll be hooked! All of our heroes assembled in one place—The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
