Rock, What is rock? I gave up on rock twenty five years ago, and I don't miss it. Plenty of great progressive bands,alt. country, alt. folk, new jazz, classic jazz, jam bands,to keep me more than happy. I am discovering new bands almost weekly.
Pete Townshend Quadrophenia Demos 1 & 2 (released on vinyl EPs in 2011 & 2012) argue that at his peak Pete was the Beethoven of R&R. 60% of The Who release is on these demos. What was saved or cut makes for a fascinating schematic of process toward the commercial release. Excellent SQ but disappointing that it costs two EPs to get it all.
Here's one for ya'll...it's just one song, not an album. It's only available in the audiophile dreaded 320kbs but hey, it's free! You can download it here http://www.theafghanwhigs.com/
The Afghan Whigs covering Frank Ocean's Lovecrimes. Oh hell yea.

I never thought those guys would ever play together again. Unlike a lot of the old dude reunion stuff going on these days, Dulli and the boys are still badass, maybe even more so. Can't wait for 10/5 in NYC!
