I have three:
Doors
Jethro Tull
Rush
I just never understood how people could play albums or tapes of these bands over and over - still don't.
,p> Then again, maybe some folks don't like some of my favorites, either.

Rush, in fact. I’ve sort of gotten into Beethoven and Wagner, however. Classic rock radio stations just seem to play the same tired songs over and over again. My favorite singer to this day is still Natalie Merchant. Her voice sounds like a smile.

Post your faves and take that chance.

I do like a few individual songs, but I was never much of a fan of the Rolling Stones, the Who or the Doors. On the other hand, I came to like/appreciate Pink Floyd and the Allman Brothers as I got older.
I have two Rush tunes that I'd rank among the 100 best classic rock songs of all time: "Time Stand Still" and "Spirit of Radio."

I’m only agreeing with Rush.
Hate them.
A lot.

Michael Jackson. Even in the days before he turned from a poor black boy into a rich white woman, I never “got” that guy’s music.

I forgot to mention ELO. But I could spend all day on this subject so I’ll just spare you that. Lots of people like to talk about rock bands they like.

True, but at least there were a few Queen songs I liked....I hear a Styx song, and I change the dial as soon as possible.

Good question. All so called “progressive rock”. Art rock, standing on one leg and playing rock and roll on a flute? You’re kiddin’ me! All the pretentious Pink Floyds, ELOs, Emerson, Packard and Palmers, Moody Blues after the 1st album, same with Bloody Sweating Tears, and all of Chitkago.

My only problem with that band is that their music has been terribly over-played over the years.
Maybe this is why I have an unusual taste in a lot of classic rock music. For almost any of the legendary classic rock bands, it seems like my favorite songs are ones that never got a lot of airplay over the years. "Freebird" may be the most popular (or tiresome, depending on how you feel) of their songs, but I've grown very fond of "Tuesday's Gone" in recent years.
