Arrow Rock 500

De Arrow Rock 500 is een jaarlijks radioprogramma van het Nederlandse station Arrow Classic Rock. Het wordt sinds 1999 uitgezonden. De uitzending geschiedde in 2008 en 2009 in oktober in plaats van december zodat de lijst niet op hetzelfde tijdstip was te horen als de Top 2000. In het programma worden de 500 populairste platen aller tijden gedraaid, zoals die in de weken voorafgaand aan de uitzending door middel van een stemming via internet door de luisteraars zijn bepaald.

In de eerste negentien edities van de lijst heeft het nummer Stairway to Heaven van Led Zeppelin de eerste plaats bezet.

In de twintigste editie in 2018 werd deze voor de eerste keer van de toppositie gestoten door Child in Time van Deep Purple. In de twee daaropvolgende edities veroverde het nummer eveneens de eerste plaats.

In de edities van 2022 en 2023 bereikte Comfortably Numb van Pink Floyd de toppositie in de lijst.[1][2]
