Everyone knows rock achieved perfection in 1974!" The only difference is, for me that year is somewhere in the late 80s.

Maybe we have different definitions of "classic". To me, "classic" in this context refers to an old song (yes, 1987 is old, it's 18-19 years ago) that has that sort of style - the Whitesnake style, for example.

What's your definition of "classic" in this context?
