The Seven Ages of Rock is a renowned series targeting the history and evolution of some of the sub-genres associated with rock music. The first segment features blues rock, the British Invasion, and important figures such as Bob Dylan (1963-1970), the second speaks on how rock music became an accepted art form and its theatricality (1966-1980), the third tells the story of punk music (1973-1980), the fourth dishes out heavy metal (1970-1971), the fifth focuses on arena rock (1965-1993), segment six is devoted to alternative rock (1980-1994), and indie rock rounds out the last episode (1980-2007). A definite must in the library for rock connoisseurs.
