What we call classic rock are the songs that were hits on the old AOR Rock format of radio!. Psychedelic, early harder blues-edged stuff like Cream, then Santana and others!. Heavy doses of Aerosmith, Led Zep, Boston, Van Halen, Hendrix and AC/DC!. Mainly music from the late sixties through the late 80s that Top 40 woudn't touch!. Most of the hair-metal bands didn't make the classic rock cut,

Oldies can really mean any kinda music thats old, maybe old as in 70s or could be as old as the 50s!.
Classic rock is just ROCK from like the same eras as i said, like 50s to 80s!. 80s rock really isnt classic in my opinion!. The best years for Classic Rock, to me, were the 60s, and 70s!. But i guess thats something thats argued about a lot!. But really, 80s was taken over by hair bands!. But whatever!.

it's getting to the point where there isn't one BUT!.!.!.oldies as i consider it is music from the 50's and earlier!.!.!.elvis, bobby darin, sinatra(maybe later but i still consider oldies,)stuff like that!. Classic rock is that which follows(minus the beatles)!. The stones, led zep, queen, etc!. Basically, i think it all boils down to whether or not they have a rockin' guitarist!. If the guitarist rocks it is ROCK lolWww@Enter-QA@Com
oldies i'd say would be stuff before the 50's which was when rock 'n roll started out!. you know, stuff like paul anka and that!.
