The Top Five Classic Rock Songs

First of all?  What the fuck is classic rock? According to Wikipedia, Classic Rock "is a US radio format which developed from the album-oriented rock (AOR) format in the early 1980s."  It is considered the main "genre" of music that was listened to by the Baby Boomers.   But you certainly don't have to be a baby boomer to appreciate the concept of Classic Rock, as my co-host Chris Corral and I take on today.  We chose to define Classic Rock as anything released prior to 1985.  Our lists are eclectic and thoughtful with a couple of surprises. This was an incredibly fun show to record and I give major props to Chris for his insight here - he's not only a pop-culture enthusiast like myself but he's also a musician, composer, and songwriter and I sure did learn a lot from him during our discussion. And by the way - Chris Corral did compose the show music for this very podcast as well as my other show, Higher Ed Happy Place.   As always, feel free to contact us about our lists, challenge our choices, or propose a Top Five subject of your own!  The email address is [email protected] Want to support the show?  Check out our Patreon Page:  www.patreon.com/topfivepodcast
