Essential Classic Rock Songs.... HELP!

[Solecord]

Ok so I'm not that big into classic rock from the 60's and 70's but I'm trying to compile a CD of some of the best/essential rock songs from that decade. Examples like Skynard's "Freebird" or Zep's "Stairway to Heaven" ... help me out here... list on...

saying you're going to burn an essential classic rock CD and not having Pink Floyd is like eating cereal without mixing it with milk. ITS CRAZY!!!!

[Solecord]

I don't put milk in my Frosted Flakes

[scar3crow]

That and you dont need 30+ Pink Floyd tracks on a cd...

Ive never been quite comfortable with the term classic rock, I just go by the decade... though if were just talking older bands in general, Yes, Jethro Tull, and The Who are awesome.

I was just throwing out suggestions, not a playlist. It's Sole's music collage after all, not mine
