![]() ![]() Although the earlier rock and roll artists of the '50s and early '60s are indeed both classic and rock, they're usually not considered to be "classic rock" from a programming standpoint, instead being relegated to oldies stations. ![]() The unwritten definition used by the website (and many people) generally seems to be any music created by a non- alternative note excluding New Wave, Punk Rock, and Post-Punk, if you even consider these genres to be alternative rock band/artist that was at the peak of their/his/her career sometime in between the Rockabilly/ Rock & Roll (using the strictest definition of the latter term) and the Grunge/ Alternative Rock eras (basically, rock from the middle-ish 1960s to the very early '90s). There is no set definition of "classic rock," with just about everybody having their own personal criteria. Classic rock is not, strictly speaking, a musical genre, but rather a radio format that features old-school rock songs. ![]()
