Liner Notes

Steve Ellis, the teenage voice behind Love Affair’s chart-topping “Everlasting Love,” has died at 76. We look back at the song, the mod scene that made him, and a career that lasted six decades.

A sitar, bagpipes, a mandolin and a guitar that talks: here are ten classic rock songs that got their magic from instruments you'd never expect.
