Can you old bastards help me with a classic rock playlist?

[Ns1]

Clarifications:
- Classic rock is also referring to the sound and not just a specific timeframe
- metal =/= classic rock
- RHCP / Primus / Smashing Pumpkins =/= classic rock
- Yet, GnR and AC/DC would solidly be classic rock

thanks, updated the OP.

I can never listen to Journey again, ever. singing competitions + glee have totally killed Journey for me

 

[OutHouse]

CCR

 

[lxskllr]

pre bitches Fleetwood Mac

Velvet Underground/Lou Reed

 

[Ns1]

pre bitches Fleetwood Mac

funny you say that, I can listen to Rhiannon for daaaaaaaaays.

 

[smackababy]

Do you mean traditional classic rock or what is played on classic rock stations these days? The quote "When did Motley Crue become classic rock" comes to mind.

With that said, CCR, Deep Purple, Cream, the Who, Boston. Maybe some more avant-garde stuff: Steely Dan, King Crimson.

 

[Carson Dyle]

You're reaching back fifty years and you can only come up with the names of 15 bands??

 

[rudeguy]

Yep Journey has to be done in small doses. But you have to have at least one song on any classic playlist.

Also: The Weight
Boston
Queen

[lxskllr]

Van Morrison
Kinks
GnR?

Having trouble coming up with stuff I still enjoy while using your guidelines(sounds like hard rockish?). Most of the old stuff bores me anymore. Surf music is pretty good for classic rock.

 

[smackababy]

Also, can't go wrong with Bowie.

My era is late 60's to late 80's WITH THAT CLASSIC ROCK VIBE

so late 80's AC/DC would be YES, late 80's RHCP would be NO.

Yes to GnR

No to The Weights (the who?), Boston, Morrisey

to the Maybe list:
Queen, Bowie (I generally dislike bowie, but "I'm Afraid of Americans" almost makes up for every other track that I hate), The Who

I like a few of Jimi's tracks (all along the watchtower = #1), but I'm mostly meh to Hendrix. blasphemy, I know.

 

[tHa ShIzNiT]

Led Zepellin should be on the list.

bolded for yes, underlined for maybe. great list/suggestions though, just not my cup of tea for the most part. Watched an hour long documentary on Alice Cooper, awesome documentary, but I can't get into the music at all.

 

[highland145]

Didn't see Radar Love or Black Betty.

 

[Ns1]

Led Zepellin should be on the list.

Since I've Been Loving You - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZiN_NqT-Us

edit: also No Quarter

can't stand to listen to LZ on a casual basis, exception for "stairway to heaven". Can't listen to "No Quarter" after listening to Tool's version; LZ version is so anemic in comparison.

Didn't see Radar Love or Black Betty.

who? lol

My guess is that there are many bands where you may be familiar with only one or two hits, and couldn't name the band even you recognized the tune.
