Why not based around the Blues? Aside from 'modern electronica' (whatever that is) every style you mention had the Blues as an original influence, maybe not always as the primary influence but it was still there. Why avoid it?
The other thing, not a single one of the bands you listed wrote 'classic rock', it's just how their particular style ended up being recognized in retrospect. I don't think many people back in the day would have said The Beatles and Black Sabbath were the same style or genre...
