One of the worst forms of music EVER. There were a few, decent songs from this era, and stressing the word few. This genre of music took place mainly from the late 1960's to early 1980's. No one is sure why it got the name "Classic" because most of its music is utter garbage. What is worse is that the majority of music stations still play this slop, unwilling to let go of the past. The music itself is nothing but noise. "Classic" Rock junkies claim that the greatest guitarists came from this era but wailing a electric guitar for 8 minutes straight does not take as much skill and making an acoustic guitar sing. The song lyrics for most songs were about three things. Sex, drugs and rock. That is fine sometimes but there creativity lacked so much during this era. Most performers so were so strung out on coke, blow, etc that mindless lemming followers still hung onto everything they played.
Young Child - "Dad why do all those men have scary looking paint on their faces and why do they stick their tongues out?"
Dad - "That's the members of the Classic Rock band KISS son. The band's music is so horrible, they try to attract attention in another way."
Young Child - "OK I think I get it. Hey Dad! Did you just hear a cat squeal?"
Dad - "No son. That was actually Brian Johnson, lead singer for AC/DC."
