Are “Stairway to Heaven”, “Hotel California”, “Smoke of the Water” really rock and roll songs? “Stairway to Heaven” is an anthem. It really isn’t rock and roll.

Someone needs to define what rock and roll is if we want to have an accurate list.

If you can’t jitterbug to it, it is NOT rock and roll.
Bill Haley’s “Rock Around the Clock” is a good example of true rock and roll.

Different strokes for different generations. I appreciate and listen to a lot of music before my time. Rock evolved out of the blues, C&W, jazz and who knows what else. Perfect representation of the USofA. Rock on and Go Tigers!

Agree. "Rock and Roll"? I don't recognize 95% of the songs you good folks have listed. I did grow up way back when listening to "rock and roll". I did a little searching online, and saw mentioned that the years considered true "rock and roll" lasted from the mid-1950s (starting with Bill Haley's 1954 "Rock Around the Clock") until the mid-1960's. At that point, music was mostly considerd to be "rock" in nature.

Maybe to help you we can just call it either rock or classic rock. Does that help you?

1 I Wanna Hold Your Hand (Gets its place more because it kicked off the whole Sixties music scene, leading the "British Invasion" that kicked the reigning sappy payola music to the curb, than for artistic merit.
2. (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction - Stones (Whole "Out of Our Heads album could be considered one song for this purpose, really.)
3. Summertime Blues - The Who Live at Leeds version
4. (Tie) - Somebody to Love/White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane
5. Piece of My Heart - Janis Joplin

I might come up with a different list if I went through my record collection (Yes, vinyl, in the majority.) Seems like something from Exile on Main Street ought to be in there somewhere. Everything is negotiable, but I Wanna Hold Your Hand is solid number one. Nothing else since Frank Sinatra's Bobbie Socks years had caused so many wet panties.

Many of them are better than Stairway to Heaven. Such an overrated song by an overrated band.

There, I said it. Someone had to.

Folks, I have read your lists and find many worthy candidates but no one has listed "Knights In White Satin" by the Moody Blues. Some may say it has to much orchestra but the same could be said of "Bohemian Rhapsody". At least no one suggested Mrs. Miller.

I tried sober at work, now with a nice mellow buzz and this is impossible. I live (outside CFB and a good movie or two) on music. Listening to The Outlaws right now. Depends on my mood and I’ll wait for the top 100 😉.
