The Classic Rock All-Stars is a supergroup composed of hit-making artists in the 1960s and 1970s. The band has performed a variety of classic hits live often at outdoor festivals, since forming in 1992. The hit song "Get Ready" typically kicked off the live show showcasing Pete Rivera's (also known as: Peter Hoorelbeke) lead vocals while drumming.
Spencer Davis of Spencer Davis Group was originally 2nd guitarist in the band, but left to pursue other interests. Dennis Noda, formerly of Cannibal and the Headhunters and the original bassist for the Classic Rock All-Stars, died in May 2009.
