Lots. Classic rock is fundamental to my music foundation so I am not arguing your top picks there, but just saying that there have been many bands since then who have and will continue to stand the test of time. |

One day at work, I was talking with someone about my own age about seeing Zep in concert. A very bright 20-something woman we work with stopped in the middle of her task, and asked us both "..you SAW Led Zeppelin?!?..." as if she'd met the guru at the top of the mountain.
Seems the record companies don't quite have the young`uns by the throat just quite yet... |

Bob (as I call him) bought me a pint once...during the following conversation I asked him about the Keith Moon " lead balloon" story which he confirmed...as the evening progressed it became clear that he had a problem with David Coverdale (don't we all). He also said that he'd been a mod in the early 60's because he like the clothes/scooters etc..but he prefered the "rocker music" like Gene Vincent.
Nice bloke though, this was around 1987 in a pub called the "Queens" in Primrose Hill London.
