R.E.M is a gurrrreat band too. They aren't really "classic rock" since they are supposed to be alternative or something but who gives a crap about genres anyways. Their first album, Murmur, is delicious. Automatic for the People is their most known album and it's savoury also, a very different style though.



That's Sitting Still from Murmur, has a nice beat and of course that awesome clean guitar sound that the dude always has.



This one is Find the River off Automatic for the People. That song has such a sick atmosphere, the accordian and reverby sound are just so good seriously.

edit: Oh yeah gonna add this in case any R.E.M fans wanna bust my chops for some reason. Yes I know R.E.M have said that they think coldplay is a good band and even have been "influenced" by them for their later albums. My response to this is that their last 2 albums, while I haven't heard them, well I'm sure they suck. Well I heard one song and it was pretty crap. Anyways yes, booo coldplay, boooo.

Some "rock" I enjoy

U2 - Anything up to Achtung, Baby. Joshua Tree and Achtung are my favorites
Rush - 2112 through Moving Pictures, if you like Zep and Cream you could also check out the first two albums
The Who - Live at Leeds, Who's Next
Van Halen's first and maybe second album
Boston's first album
Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger, Superunknown
UFO - Strangers in the Night
Iron Maiden - I like the live albums best

Velvet Underground- Influential to nearly all alternative genres we see today.
Good Starting Point: Velvet Underground & Nico Heroin is way too great.

Beatles- Started the pop movement
Revolver and Rubber Soul are by far my favorite cds

Frank Zappa - Fusion at it's best. Many albums are not very accessible for someone who isn't too open minded towards music.
Hot Rats is his most accessible album. From on then I'd recommend listening through both discs of Make Jazz Noise Here

Talking Heads - Arguably one of the most technical bands of the 80s and pioneers of new wave.
Start with their debut (Talking Heads 77) and follow them in order. Don't listen to Speaking in Tongues or later. Remain in Light is amazing

Bob Dylan - Probably not your style but so immensely influential that I mine as well put it....
Lot of good albums... Blood on the Tracks is a favorite of mine

David Bowie - Friends might call you gay but in your heart you will know that he is amazing and they are stupid. Creater of many sub-genres we see today. Hunky Dory will always be a favorite of mine. Ziggy Stardust is also a fantastic album. I like all his work in the 70s but that's because of taste in music

Funkadelic/Parliament - EVERYONE NEEDS FUNK IN THEIR LIFE
Maggot Brain is a good starting point from Funkadelic

The Who - Just listen :D
Quadrophenia and Tommy are their best work

I could list more but chances anyone will listen to this is low but whatever just trying to help lol

(I know you said Classic Rock but why not learn the about rock in general :D)

Pink Floyd is progressive rock. They have elements of psychadelica in their music, but they are not "psychadelic rock".

Cpt.Cocaine, there is so much of a "bluesy" feel in all of gilmours guitar work. pink floyd is a Progressive ROCK band.

Also i must add, Coldplay are so amazingly untalented/bad it makes me want to chop my dick into tiny little pieces. Holy fuck, listening to the lyrical content the band comes up with is like reading from a cliche book. Some of the most shallow music i've ever ever ever heard. Fuck you coldplay.

Well, I guess it depends on how broadly you want to define 'bluesy'. I listen/play a lot of straight up blues myself and I never really thought of glimour's playing as being remotely bluesy, especially compared to, say, led zeppelin. Not to say it's bad, I actually love pink floyd, but I think it's a category of it's own.

Deep Purple. Early Deep Purple rules, like Mk II and 3. So.

In Rock (great stuff, speed king, blood sucker, living wreck, into the fire)
FireBall (awesome, kinda experimental, but great tracks, fireball, strange kind of woman, demons eye, although it is on a different release.)
Machine Head I mean, come on, not a single weak track. Everyone always says, highway star or smoke on the water, but I listen to the whole thing. Theres SPACE TRUCKIN, Maybe IM A LEO, PICTURES OF HOME. And the single NEVER BEFORE. perfect songs.
Made In Japan(if you want to listen to 3 minute studio versions of songs here, you went to the wrong place, this is the way its supposed to be, its like epic 11 minute versions of the masterpieces)
Burn, great Mk III album.
Perfect Strangers, the MK two reuinion. Awesome AWESOME album. Great stuff.
Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow Rising. And Stargazer, I believe. Anything by Rainbow. its good hardrock. Classic Hot tunes.

Queen. seriously. get that huge Greatest ever thing. it has basically everything you need by them.

David Bowie, Heck yeah Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane.

Jimi Hendrix, Spanish Castle Magic. Purple haze, voodoo chile. StoneFree

Pink Floyd, It IS classic Rock. eff, its the stuff that resonates in everyone's DNA, what the crap, just get it, its stuff you NEED in your brain.

Black Sabbath, Master of reality. Black Sabbath(self titled) Paranoid, National Acrobat.

I just youtube bands I wished I learned of, like I did that with sabbath a year or so ago. like, I wanted to hear their stuff. Youtube is an excellent tool.

Europe, The final Countdown album, ninja is a cool song.

WhiteSnake, Still of the night.

Bon Jovi( just get the guys, start riding in the car, loud music, bust those cocks out for the rock.) haha, bon Jovi is awesome. I mean its in the 80's but come on, you gotta love it.

Theres so much more, just get all you can.

To me, Classic Rock, is not just the sound, its something everyone can get down to, no matter how musically closed minded they are.

Bah, get out of here! Its like the greatest love ballads ever! The epitomy of the 80's right there. Sure they are ridiculous, but its like, good music!

I mean, Slide it in? Heck yeah! Bust those out and effin push ! At least you have to get the music in your head and bust it out once in a while.

This version kicks trash



Cryin in the rain as well. Thats actually a real heavy song, to me anyways. the riffs.
Hoo Ra!

Uhhhhhh... anything with Barret at the helm can be categorised as psychadelic, however in the Waters era its the most pure and fundamental prog rock :>

Cocaine, if your listening and playing to Robert Johnson and Leadbelly, then no, gilmour is not a 'blues' guitarist, however no guitarists of the 60's 70's really were pure blues guitarists in that case. Gilmours foundation is in blues imo.

btw HooHa, national acrobat is off Sabbath Bloody Sabbath... ;|
