Things have changed a whole awful lot over the decades. From fashion to hobbies to music, of course, everything is different now than it was even just 30 years ago. That amount of time isn't a ton, relatively, but it sure seems like it when comparing how life is now to then. One thing that has not changed is the love for music. Rock music is fun, loud, and creates some strong emotions and reactions. Rock music has changed and shaped society into what it is today, and it's important to the classics.

There are many classic music and rock icons to be remembered. Some of them are no longer in the world, but many are, and many are still creating and playing music to this day. Whether someone is a true fan of classic rock music or just knows the songs on the radio, everyone can appreciate these artists.

Here are 22 very interesting and somewhat surprising images of classic music icons of the past and some memorable moments from shows and society back in the good old days.
