Absolutely!

Steve65 says:

Rock N Roll!

dougeby says:

Will always be the best!

Not a Chance!

GypsyPirate says:

Well, I do really like Classic rock, and as I get older, more of what I like is considered "classic". But, no, there's other forms I like better.

Monteath says:

It's very very very close, but I'm a blues man and I have to give the edge to BB King, Johnny Lee Hooker, and company. "Ain't Nothin' like those blues, the blues are my companion, they don't bother me at all."

Alternative 

  • Adam and The Ants Video Showcase That Music's Lost Its Taste So Try Another Flavor
  • The B-52s The world's greatest party band - Ever

  • David Bowie A Man of Sound and Vision
  • Dead Kennedys Video Showcase When I think of punk bands, one of the first I always think of is The Dead Kennedys. They are irreverent, foul, and really talented and witty.

  • INXS An Eternally Powerful Rock Band
