Classic Rock
Ah, the classic rock anthology. A treasure trove of nostalgia, air-guitar solos, and questionable fashion choices. But hey, that's what makes it so darn enjoyable, isn't it? "Classic Rock - The Collection" is a 3-disc masterpiece that takes us on a rollercoaster ride through the iconic hits of the 60s, 70s, and 80s. From the thunderous riffs of Led Zeppelin to the anthem-like ballads of Queen, this compilation has it all. The album kicks off with the ultimate feel-good anthem, "Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey. You can't help but sing along as Steve Perry's vocals soar through your speakers like a glorious rock angel. And if that doesn't get you pumped up, then the fiery guitar licks of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama" surely will. But it's not just about the big names on this album. Hidden gems like Thin Lizzy's "The Boys Are Back in Town" and Toto's "Africa" bring a fresh twist to the mix. And let's not forget the ultimate power ballad, Foreigner's "I Want to Know What Love Is". It's cheesy, it's emotional, and it's everything we love about classic rock. So jump in your car, roll down the windows, and crank up the volume on "Classic Rock - The Collection". It's a wild ride full of timeless hits that will have you rocking out like it's 1975 all over again. Just don't blame us if you end up growing a mullet.

Bell Rock Lighthouse : An Illustrated History
Since its completion in 1811, the Bell Rock Lighthouse has been revered as an industrial wonder of the world.The iconic tower was built on the Inchcape Rock, a submerged reef some 12 miles off the coast of Arbroath, and now stands as the oldest sea-washed tower in the world, surviving over 200 years of violent storms and crashing waves.The construction of the Bell Rock made the name of the Stevenson family, a dynasty of lighthouse engineers who dominated Scottish lighthouse engineering for 150 years.Robert Stevenson was the first man on the reef and the last man off, a personal commitment which saw the Bell Rock’s actual Chief Engineer, John Rennie, almost deleted from the building’s history.The Bell Rock is, however, more than just Stevenson and Rennie.Not only was it a remarkable feat of engineering, but one which played host to a remarkable way of life.The light-keepers undertook nightly vigils on the rock for 177 years, their often mundane and monotonous duties occasionally being punctuated by technological improvements and world events. The keepers are now all gone but the Bell Rock continues to show its familiar flash for the safety of all.
