OT- Classic Rock Thread

mugzi · Post #1 » by **mugzi** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 9:42 pm

Considering we have a hip hop thread and all, which is great cause I love hiphop, I figured what could it hurt if we had a classic rock thread. Since most people consider classic rock to be anything from the 60s and 70s, Im going to amend that to include anything up until 1981. I think 30 yrs or older is fair game for the genre.

Here's a few that are classics to me, I know the genre pretty well so if you can come up with some songs that are somewhat obscure but classics in their own right then please post them.

Cheers.

I like this rock song.

Try "House of the Rising Sun", "American Woman", and "Paint It Black".

of course someone has to post the beatles, i'll post this song though because a few weeks back i was at the bar that was playing rap, r&b, and all other kind of crappy music until i went to the music player, inserted my dollar, and watched everyone stop talking and look at the drunk man nod his head in a 'yeah, do something' way

edit: if anyone cares, that night i spent over 100 dollars and tipped the waitress about 40 bucks.

So many good classics though...have to close your eyes, open up your mind and let the groovy tunes take over

While it would be considered new age by definition of this thread, Close to Me is probably in my top five drunk songs of all time.

Ha ha I know right, I figured an old man like you would have some classics to add, good picks there, Aqualung is one of my all time favorites.

Cant have a classic rock thread without Steely Dan, love the guitar work on this one...

I got to see these guys in a crappy bar on Long Island back in the late 90s, talk about falling from grace.

One of the best basslines Ive ever heard in a song.
