    This is going to be hard, as there are so many great classic rock tunes. Here are 5 of my favorites:

    Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
    All Along The Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix
    The Wall - Pink Floyd
    Hotel California - The Eagles
    Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - The Beatles (Hence, my user name!)

    OK, it's your turn - your 5 favorites!

    As a guideline, let's say music from the 60's & 70's.

    Ti - your comment earned you rep points.

    You gotta give me an Era to choose from.

    My tastes range from Bill Hailey & The Comets, Beach Boys to Beathoven.
    I like Kizz, AC/DC, Queen, John Denver & Jim Croce.
    With a little Sir Mixalot, and Ice T mixed in.
    It all good.
