I actually like a lot of classic rock (yes even Hotel California, that solo kicks ass) but there is a lot of bad classic rock too. What do you think the worst classic rock song is? What is the most overrated band or artist? I think Supertramp is mid at best, but Bob Seeger is truly dreadful.
i have always been kinda snobby but i detest basic bitch rock. verse chorus verse is an acceptable structure, but for like five straight decades we got music that was mostly about materialistic excess, and anything deeper was usually on the periphery - if you didn't want more music about girls, cars, sex, having a good time then I have bad news.
But I like everything that rose to technically and lyrically interesting heights, and i hope someday rock and roll can reinvent itself from the old and ossified thing it has become.
