a phrase commonly used in the english language, but is not actuly a word. classic is defined as "of the first or highest quality, class, or rank: a classic piece of work." and rock in the form it needs to be stated for this defention is "to move or sway to and fro or from side to side". so it tells us that classic rock is the best music
many popular bands form the 60's to the late 80's are considered classic rock.

A genre of music which spanned from about the early 1960's, starting with British Invasion Rock and The Beatles, to as late as the mid 90's, by which time most of "the greats" had died. Classic rock is remembered and revered by most in society as the grounds for all forms of rock, many of which can be linked to a specific classic rock band, such as Metal to AC/DC, and Psychadelic Rock to Pink Floyd. There is some descrepancy as to which bands are Classic Rock bands, and which bands were simply the first in their own area. some people group british invasion rock bands, such as the beatles and the who, seperately from Classic Rock, but most include them. Many Classic rock songs are recognized by youth today, who dont even realize that someone actually CREATED such amazing music, and in some cases children actually believe that Classic Rock song exist from their "sheer awesomeness" Each Classic Rock band has a distinct style, making the genre incredibly diverse and experimental, unfortunately, while the exact date of the end of Classic Rock is debated (some place it as early as the late 70's to as late as the death of Freddie Mercury in 1991) it is a general consensus that Classic Rock is no longer in the making, and while it may be listened to forever, will not progress any further than it already has
Generally agreed upon Classic Rock bands include: The Beatles Queen Led Zeppelin Pink Floyd The Who AC/DC The Ramones The Doors Deep Purple Jimi Hendrix The Rolling Stones

good music basically the beginning of pushing the limit real gangsta get your shit right ever heard of chuck berry or the blues thats what rock came from you douche lots of things in zepplin are blues influenced open your eyes every thing in rap is generated by someone else that cut and crap they need to learn to lay a real instrument yeah some are good but you sound like a misinformed idiot that thinks whoever gets the most show time is really a better artist no its because there generic oh yeah another thing Hendrix. and they don't all scream most actually sing unlike some rapping oh stairway to heaven bitch white rabbit or walk this way sort of or paranoid iron man or wild thing sunshine of your love or cocaine or Johnny B. Good guitar is real takes real skill we all know what sounds good how hard is it to do that with a program try a guitar or drums bass harmonica something real puto and they had analog stuff back then not digital
