What are some good classic rock songs?!
Question: I have 67 classic rock songs and I'm in the mood to listen to more. Don't give me the super popular ones, I probably already have them.
But could anyone give me a list of their favorites, or any good ones?
And if its possible the band AND the song, it bugs me when people just say a band because i still don't know what to listen to.
Thanks.

"The Ballad of El Goodo" or "In the Street" by Big Star. Anything off of that first album, actually, is great.
try Termination and Are You Happy, by Iron Butterfly
and maybe Death Valley Nights, by BOC
Zeppelin's No Quarter is also a favorite, not to mention The Song Remains the Same
the all time highlight of my collection would have to be The Doors' Celebration of the Lizard
if you can't obtain that, then Not To Touch the Earth, is a part of that collection
try the dave clark five, the beatles. or maybe black sabath, nirvana and led zeppelin if you think of that as classic rock
Pink Floyd - Have a Cigar
Pink Floyd - Time
The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter
The Rolling Stones - Midnight Rambler
Led Zeppelin - Since I've Been Loving You
Led Zeppelin - Bring it On Home
Rush - Working Man
Jethro Tull - Aqualung
Jethro Tull - Locomotive Breath
Paul McCartney & Wings - Band on the Run
These are all great songs... some more popular than others, but all great!
Blue Oyster Cult and Dio they are not super popular.
For stuff from Blue Oyster Cult :(Don't Fear) The Reaper, Goin Through the Motion, In Thee, The Marshall Plan and some others. Dio: Holy Diver, Rainbow in the Dark, The Last in Line, I Could Have Been a Dreamer.
one of my favorites is Roadhouse Blues and 5 to 1 from the doors.
any hendrix, petty, led zepplin, bad company, george thorgood, allman brothers are good too
Gimme Shelter-Rolling stones
I wanna Hold you hand is my favorite song from the Beatels.
I can give you that band and some songs. RUSH, they have so many good songs. Spirit of the Radio, freewill, La Villa Strangiato, YYZ (from guitar hero 2), 2112, the trees, and Lime Light. Hope you listen to them. I listen to them every morning and some others like Foriener and The Eagles.

Ted Nugent, free for all, cat scratch fever
The Eagles, hotel california, take it easy

Lights Out In London-UFO
Hocus Pocus-Focus....it's kind of an odd song but the music I think is awesome.
