A History of Instrumental Rock


Back in 2011, I read an article about the Instrumental Rock band, Explosions in the Sky, in SPIN magazine (whose music, by the way,  is great). I was recently skimming through it again and enjoyed the second page that listed a history of Instrumental Rock. I love music and history and enjoyed discovering some new artists who were a part of the evolution of the instrumental rock genre. I thought it would be fun to re-produce the history on my tumblr – to see and hear the history evolve in sound.
I have done just that. The last 2 weeks on the Lodico Arte Taccuino tumblr, I have featured the history of Instrumental Rock. If you would like to check it out, you can find the beginning on the bottom of page 3 (http://lodicoartetaccuino.tumblr.com/page/3). Happy listening and exploring! 

The original online version of the history article by Jason Cohen is here.  http://www.spin.com/articles/playlist-30-greatest-instrumental-songs-ever
