I'm sure many if you will be disappointed to discover that this thread is not about geology. Maybe it would be gneiss to have one one day.

I'm after your help in me compiling a playlist of classic, iconic rock tracks. Jog my memory please. (Nothing after the horrendous 1980 year plethora of synthetic-only crap thanks.). Young people keep out - you have no taste. 😁

So far I have:

Stairway to heaven (LZ)
Freebird (LS)
Simple man (LS)
Barbara O'Reilly (TW)
Behind blue eyes (TW)
Pinball wizard (TW)
Ziggy Stardust (DB)
Starman (DB)

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
Warpigs - Black Sabbath
Harvest Moon - Neil Young (not really rock but sniff it Chris)
Child in Time - Deep Purple (even if it is totally ridiculous)
Easy livin - Uriah heep (very funny drinking song)

Good shouts - especially 'child in time' ... but Neil Young, great though he is, belongs elsewhere.
 

Pulled up what the local classic rock station is playing for more ideas.

Slow Ride (Foghat)
Don't Fear the Reaper (BOC)
Burnin' for You (BOC)
Somebody to Love (Jefferson Airplane)

It's a Long Way to the Top (AC/DC)
Let There be Rock (AC/DC)
Barracuda (Heart)
Magic Man (Heart)
Hold on Loosely (.38 Special)
And the Cradle Will Rock (Van Halen)
Reeling in the Years (Steely Dan)
Carry on Wayward Son (Kansas)
Dust in the Wind (Kansas)
Roll With the Changes (REO)
