7-28-21 Classic Rock Update

Behind-the-scenes footage from the making of AC/DC's official music video for the song "Witch's Spell" has been released. "Witch's Spell" is taken from AC/DC's latest album "Power Up", which was released in November.

Mammoth WVH, the project helmed by Wolfgang Van Halen, played their first concert last night at the Bottleneck Night Club in Lawrence, Kansas. The gig was a surprise show, announced just a day before the event. But that didn’t stop the concert from quickly selling out, as a capacity crowd turned out to cheer on the budding rock star.

More from the show:

Stone Temple Pilots are also sharing a previously unreleased video, from the 1996 track, "And So I Know", in sync with the newly released expanded 25th anniversary reissue of their third album, "Tiny Music...Songs From The Vatican Gift Shop."

In the History of Rock: In 1956 a national TV audience gets its first gander at Elvis Presley on CBS’s The Dorsey Brothers Stage Show.

During the first show, both Paul McCartney and John Lennon received mild electrical shocks from ungrounded microphones. Supporting acts included The Kays, The Moonlighters, and The Streaplers.
