Since I was called an "Old Man" in the Skrillex thread I figured I would show "Old Man" music to the kids around here on TD. I listen to a lot of Classic Rock (Mostly Before 1980s) - Here is a list of a few of my favorites. Feel free to post yours!

Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin
Another Brick In The Wall - Pink Floyd
Hotel California - Eagles
Riders on the Storm Doors
Sweet Emotion - Aerosmith
Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin
Carry on Wayward Son - Kansas
Limelight - Rush
The Joker - Steve Miller Band
Dreams - Fleetwood Mac
Feel Like Makin' Love - Bad Company
Hurricane - Bob Dylan
Down On The Corner - CCR
Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd
Ramble On - Led Zeppelin
Take It Easy - Eagles
Dancing Days - Led Zeppelin
All Right Now - Free
Lift Me Up - Yes
Don't Look Back - Boston

These are pretty much the first 20 I could think of at the top of my head

Anything more obscure? If I turn on 98.1 I'll hear each of these at least 10 times in a day.

For example:

Blue Oyster Cult - Burnin' for You (much better than Don't Fear the Reaper, IMO)
Led Zeppelin - Moby Dick
Led Zeppelin - Ten Years Gone
Rare Earth - I Just Want to Celebrate
Rush - Working Man
Rush - The Spirit of Radio

If we're going obscure classic rock (and God, I hate that term), I'll throw out No Sugar Tonight by the Guess Who. Real underrated song.

As well as Soldier by Neil Young, In My Time of Dying by Led Zeppelin, and Monkey Man by the Rolling Stones.

I love every song listed and I like Skrillex, what does that make me? I prefer Classic Rock over all other genres, but I pretty well like a little of everything. In fact I'd probably pick electronic music as my second favorite.

A reasonable list, except one of those is not like the others. "Roundabout" or even "Your Move/All Good People" I would have got, but "Lift Me Up" is from the 1990's bastard 20 man version of Yes.

Your list sucks.

No Rolling Stones, no The Band, no Tom Petty, no Skynyrd, no Allman Brothers, no The Beatles.

WTF
