I've been fond of classic rock for a while now and would have to say the following are some of my favorites:

Led Zeppelin (I know *everyone's* favorite) - I can't stand Stairway because it seems like every crappy classic rock station has it on at any given moment but their other stuff is so kick ass. I think it's funny to look back at them and realize that they were THE *boy* band at the time. Robert Plant was chosen for the band because he looked good.

Jackson Browne - The live album Running on Empty has to be a top three album for me. Such a great musician ... nothing really needs to be said :-). If you've never heard the entire Running on Empty album there a lot of great tracks that get little to no air time (Cocaine comes to mind). Cool story behind the album as well ... look it up on wikipedia.

Jethro Tull - All I can say is "wow". Who else has the balls to play flute in a "heavy" metal band? He was saying that with his lyrics and Zeppelin's music they could have created the perfect band ... and I agree.

Jimi Hendrix - nothing needs to be said

I like a lot more bands from this time frame (Doors, Beatles etc) just too many to list :-p

Yea that's one of my dad's new border collies. Unfortunatly I live in a place where I can't have my own dog :cry:

A dog is one of the first things I'm going to get when I can afford to buy a house.

I was never much of a classic rock fan. I haven't heard any music by most of the artists listed in this topic (at least, not that I'm aware of). I do have a Floyd CD, but only because it was a gift from a Floyd fan.

Ahh you should. A lot of the so called "garage rock" "retro rock" stuff coming out of acts like the Arctic Monkeys, Strokes, White Stripes etc is just recycled music from the 60's/70's.

While I'm not dissing those bands (I like them) you do have to give credit where credit is due :thumbsup:
