Classic Rock

cool

i've been listening to a lot of the more forgotten classic rock songs lately.

Radar Love, Space Cowboy, etc

How is Space Cowboy forgotten? Alot of people know that song.

Still is a song you dont hear to often on the radio and Radar Love , my friend have a cd from Golden Earring. Their unplugged version of their greatest hits, pretty cool stuff

i don't mean forgotten like it's never on teh radio, i mean forgotten like people don't talk about it when they are talking about classic rock.

like five man elecrical band's "Signs". Or Sugarloaf's "Green Eyed Lady". But i'm not going for stuff like Bloodrock's "DOA" which most people haven't heard of.

oh, alright

i like led zepellin, AC/DC, Sabbath, Guns and Roses, KISS, Lynard Skynard, Pink floyd, and Van Halen - there just the ones that could easily be dexcribed as classic rock

Guns and Roses aren't classic rock. Van Halen is borderline

Led Zep "When the Levee Breaks" is one of the damn coolest songs in the world...I love it, im listening to it right now

basically... i would say any reasonably old rock band that sold many records are classics...

what is old then?

so all of a sudden Guns n Roses are 'reasonably old'? Appetite for destruction was released in 1987! That's not even twenty years yet! Their latest album was barely more than a decade ago. they're not old

AC/DC, Guns n Roses, and Van Halen are definitely not Classic Rock.

Van Halen is classic their debut album is from an area when most of the original classic rock bands had quit.

I'd say that Van Halen is borderline. "Jump" just doesn't strike me as a classic rock song.

Then again, Tom Petty's stuff does seem to strike that chord even though he was at the same time.

The first Van Halen albums are defiantly Classic Rock.
Van Halen, van Halen II, Women and Children First....
Jump didnt come until their 6th studio album and by then they were down to a a commercial rock band that experimented with different styles even though 1984 is a very good album

Yeah, no denying that they were talented and had some great albums (along with some that were just plain bad), but I just don't get the feeling that they belong next to The Kinks, LZ, The Who, etc.

Think they filled in the gap after LZ, Deep Purple nicely

i argue against ac/dc not being classic - they penned some of the greatest riffs of all time

I would say AC DC followed the line of the New wave of British Metal with the likes of Maiden and Priest
