Classic Rock albums for overcoming sadness and grief

Recently, my grandfather is about to pass away due to his illness. Thus, I need Classic Rock albums for overcoming sadness and grief during upcoming difficult times.

And by Classic Rock, I have no restriction in terms of era or how it's presented. It's not a kind of music he listens to, but this is one of the genres that makes me feel at ease.

Thanks for every suggestions in advance!

Rock n Roll Appreciation Class

Hey yall i'm a college student and I am in a rock n roll appreciation class this semester. For my final project I am supposed to interview people who graduated high school pre 1985 and ask them a couple questions about music. I figured there would be some people in this sub with good knowledge about rock music. If anyone is interested I can send you the questions, it isn't anything personal just favorite artists and thoughts on the culture surrounding it. Thanks!

MOLLY HATCHET & BLACKFOOT: I didn't go to this concert for some reason back in 2006 but saved & stashed the pair of tickets away in a keepsake box then re-found the tix last night while looking through stuff. Fortunately, I saw both bands twice back in their glory days.

Books?

Hello!

I watched Almost Famous again today after several years and find myself feeling that funny nostalgia for a time I never actually lived through.

I’m looking for books that document the scene in the ’60s and ’70s—a sort of portrait of a time.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Interstitial Tracks UPDATE

Some time ago I came to this sub asking for strictly instrumental tracks of a length not much greater than a minute and a half.

I've since more or less completed the playlist I was compiling with this sub's kind suggestions, and while it's not a classic rock playlist it is nevertheless a rock playlist, and I'd be remiss not to return my findings to the sub that aided me. For your listening enjoyment(?), my collection of incidental (got the words eventually) music for a tabletop roleplaying rock opera adventure game:

I think it's on PlutoTV, too, if you're like me and too lazy to find the DVD player.
