It is bands like Lynard Skynard and Van Halen that ruin classinc rock for me
I can understand not liking these two bands, but to say that they ruin classic rock for you is ridiculous. Those two bands and other bands similar to them comprise an extremely small part of CR. Most people who like classic rock only know the most popular bands like Zeppelin, Floyd, The Who, and The Beatles. To really appreciate this grand era of music, you have to look under these headliner bands at the smaller and lesser known ones. Blue Oyster Cult, The Hollies, The Byrds, Dire Straits, The Moody Blues, The Guess Who, The Allman Brothers, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Fleetwood Mac, Cream(though they are rather well known), Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Grateful Dead, etc.
