I sure do. I know deep inside Newschooler's WuTang/Method Man population, there are a few people out there that still enjoy classic rock. Share favorite bands/artists, songs, or albums.

Top 10 Bands:

1. The Who

2. The Rolling Stones

3. Led Zeppelin

4. Jimi Hendrix

5. Aerosmith

6. Elvis Presley

7. Queen

8. Lynard Skynard

9. The Beatles

10. Guns N' Roses

Favorite album for me has got to be Who's Next followed by Quadrophenia/Forty Licks

Favorite song has gotta be Suspicious Minds by Elvis

Stoked on Aersosmith's current tour, The Who coming to Detroit in November, and rumors of The Rolling Stones touring in the Summer of 2013!

You think The Who are better than Zeppelin and Hendrix? Sorry to be the one who breaks this to you but your taste in music is fucking awful.

I love classic rock. It definitely isn't the only thing I listen to, but on the right day, not much beats it. In no random order, these are some of my favorites:

Zeppelin

Boston

Supertramp

Rush (going to see them in September)

yea i really wouldnt consider it anything else ex. metal. ik maiden is technically metal as well as metallica but the genre has evolved so much to guys roaring and head banging and shit i would consider it good ol classic/ hard rock.

Fleetwood mac, Van morrison, Neil Young, Zeppelin, jethro tull, pink floyd, journey, rush, the police, rolling stones holy fuck so many and theyre all so good

I listen to it still.

Favourites are Led Zeppelin, Rush, Budgie, and a few others.

(In case anyone is wondering Budgie could be described as a mix between Led Zeppelin and Rush)

I guess a lot of it has to do with me growing up listening to the who. My dad always listened to it, so i guess i caught on. Anyways, its an opinion. Most people that say the who sucks and that hendrix/zeppelin is better know like 3 songs by them. Once you get old enough, you will realize anyone born in the classic rock era will tell you the who is better than both zeppelin and hendrix.

Correction. I shouldnt say that anyone will say The Who is better, but they are defiantly on the same level.

i find it funny that a lot of rappers or people that listen to rap and hiphop appreciate classic rock, but never the other way around...

like me, ive listened to rap/hiphop all my life and i enjoy classic rock. maybe its just cause im not stubborn with my music choices. other than country. fuckthat
