This is classic rock? When I hear the term "classic rock" I think of Buddy Holly, Elvis Presley, even The Beach Boys, etc. 1950s rock n roll.

IMO,classic rock covers stuff made from the late 50's to the mid to late 60's.Buddy Holly is "classic"...so is Elvis...as are the Who,Hendrix,the early stuff by the Stones,Creedence,etc.

To me,the music "died" in the early 70's...not with a bang but with a wimper.

Nope, those are oldies. While that might seem like splitting hairs, you'll instantly discover the difference when you tune your radio to a classic rock station. You won't hear any 50's rock, but a whole lot of 70's and 80's guitar rock. Even Motley Crue is considered classic rock these days.
