I actually like a lot of classic rock (yes even Hotel California, that solo kicks ass) but there is a lot of bad classic rock too. What do you think the worst classic rock song is? What is the most overrated band or artist? I think Supertramp is mid at best, but Bob Seeger is truly dreadful.

Really early Grateful Dead is the shit. Like Live/Dead era when they were tripping balls and absolutely shredding every night.

MC5 was pretty based

The album version of Light my Fire. The radio version is good, but the 4 minute long electric piano solo just gets to me. It’s boring and the tone isn’t interesting enough to really justify how long it is

You know I had an album called "Classic Rocks" that was either rock arrangements of classical music of classical arrangements of rock music and I can't remember which but it was cool.

As a radio programming format, yeah.

As music it’s pretty good. Even the band I bounce off of the most, kiss, has some cool stuff that never made it big and is fun to listen to.

Weirdly the thing that saves the music from the terrible clear channel/I heart radio format is the other stuff on the format it was released as.
