I did "My Kinda Lover" at karaoke the other night. A little out of my range if I am being honest.
Saw Billy Squier a couple years ago. He was on tour with the Ringo All-Starr Band. Billy still looks good and still sounds great.
I feel certain that he can still sing "My Kinda Lover" better than I can.
Not that I am going to let that dissuade me from trying.0 -

Love that song.....but that cheesy video wasn't the highlight of his career in my opinion. But then again, that was the 80s.0 -

How are you defining Classic Rock? Because Classic Rock now includes '80s Hair Metal and Grunge bands ...0
-
Can't believe there is only one mention of Queen!
And then there are/were:
Led Zep
Deep Purple
Metallica
AC/DC
Pink Floyd (tho only appreciate it now, not when young)
and...
wait for it...
ABBA

If anybody tries to make fun of you, just remind them that ABBA is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Whatever that is worth.0 -
bumping for playlist ideas
All playlists should start with Santa Monica by Everclear.
That is just one man's opinion.0 -

I'm not defining it any way I want. I'm 45. I started High School in 1982 - At the time, The Beatles were classic rock. At the time, They had been done for 10 years. Led Zeppelin Was classic rock - they had been gone for 2 years ...
My Son is 17. When he started high school in 2010, Nirvana had been done for 16 years ....
Doo-Wop Music had been dead and gone for 20 years when I started High shcool, and it was what the "Oldies" stations played. When my son started high school, Hair Metal had been dead and gone for 20 years ...
In my area, the classic Rock Stations have all added 80's and Grunge Pioneers to their playlists.
Time marches on, man ....0 -

Not sure about others, but I consider classics/oldies whatever you want to call them 60's-80's, hell 50's too.0 -

Pink Floyd
Tom Petty (seen him 7 times live)
Allman Brothers (I've seen them once and Warren Haynes spin off band Gov't Mule)

Oh I agree....except I don't think a band has to be "done" to be classic. Bruce Springsteen is classic and he is still going.0 -
