I have gotten this urge lately to listen to classic rock. What are some good songs? Stuff like Boston, Journey, Jethro Tull, Steve Miller Band, Styx.

I like albums more than songs. Stuff like:
Rush - 2112
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here, Animals
Hendrix - Axis: Bold as Love
Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein". Even if you don't know it by name, you've probably heard it, it has one of the greatest rock guitar riffs ever.

Yeah, I can't believe I'd never heard of this song until last month.
If you like stuff by Jethro Tull, check out John Barleycorn Must Die, the album by Traffic. You won't dissapointed.
As far as Tull goes, you really can't go wrong with anything off the albums Thick as a Brick, Aqualung, or Stand Up. This isn't to say stuff off their other albums aren't good, these are just my favorite.
I'll let others suggest some more popular stuff, I just notice this band doesn't get mentioned as often as I believe it should.

led zeppelin- heartbreaker, stairway to heaven, kashmir, and communication breakdown
the rolling stones- satisfaction, you cant always get what you want, start me up, harlem shuffle, and sympathy for the devil
queen- bohemian rhapsody, another one bites the dust, fat bottomed girls, under pressure, and now i'm here
rock on! :bang:

Styx and Boston do not deserve mention in this thread. We are discussing classic rock not corporate arena schlock!
