[I don't like ALL the stuff of the below, but they feature in my playlist]

Beatles
Stones
Led Zeppelin
Edit: Ha, Amy, look!

Aerosmith
Bob Dylan
Eric Clapton
The Animals
The Who
David Bowie
The Carpenters (they are in the rock encyclopedia, they count)
Queen
Elvis
GNR
The Doors
Jimi Hendrix
Pink Floyd
The Doors
The Beach Boys- YES! Firstly, there is absolutely nothing wrong with a bit of Beach boys. Secondly, they also have a rather substantial entry in the rock encyclopedia!

...see, the thing about rock is that people don't realise how much music is actually classified as 'rock'. This rock encyclopedia I keep mentioning was rather enlightning at times. I've seen acts I like in there that I didn't really think of as rock...of course some are hybrids....and on with the list

The Smiths (not much of them, but I like Panic..'hang the DJ, Hang the DJ')
James Brown- he was in that good old encyclopedia! Although I realise he's the Godfather of SOUL..
The Kinks. I can't get over how much I like the Kinks. And people who haven't heard of The Kinks. Everyone's heard The Kinks

Even if they don't realise it. *natters on about The Kinks*
I dunno if they count, but The Hollies.
I'm gonna shut up now.

Just a few additions after gazing more at my playlist

The Troggs (Wild Thing...kinda obligatory

)
The Spencer Davies Group
Ohio Players
Lou Reed
The Sufaries
George Baker Selection
Dion, if that counts

I'm sort of addicted to Runaround Sue. I wanna be a backing singer on it!

My play list is er...odd.
There's some stuff there for cheese value aswell, like ABC by the Jackson 5

I love classic rock, probably because I grew up with it playing all the time in my Dad's truck.

What about people who're trying to bring back the sound of class rock? Y'know, Jet, Franz Ferdinand and Modest Mouse? (OK, so their single don't sound like it, but they're pretty good!)

I like classic rock, but I don't associate classic rock songs with who sang them simple because I listened to them off the radio and they don't bother listing the artist/song title. I grew up listening to country music, not classic rock, so I had a late start.

I almost forgot to mention Jerry Lee Lewis

Classic rock is always great. I'm listening to the Ramones right now, in fact. Though that's more punk, but meh...

Good stuff:
Elton John
The Who
David Bowie
Red Hot Chili Peppers
The Doors
Cheap Trick
Queen
Velvet Underground
Fleetwood Mac

Just recently though, I've started listening to The Beatles (so far, I've loved it all), The Kinks (that too) and Pink Floyd (as well).

Oh, and real old Red Hot Chili Peppers.
