I wouldnt consider Queen rock in the true sense of the word either and i have seen Joel called rock before. Sabbath to me are not rock but metal but they are called rock, Gallagher seems to be more classic blues than rock.

    All called rock at some stage though,

    Sabbath were metal in the day but music scenes change and things get put in other categories.
    You couldnt have Sabbath and a modern metal band in the same categoty

    To be fair, rock originates from blues (as does most music) but in the sense that rock tunes (usually) follow the pattern of a twleve bar blues riff.

    Nope but that s because there are so much kinds of metal now. It seems like as metal gets heavier ,older types become rock but they are still strictly metal. Even heavy bands from a few years back like Obituary are all of a sudden light. I reckon bends like Obituary will be rock soon LOL

    I have to agree with all of those Westie! Not a keen Limp Bizkit fan though.

    I have to agree Phil Lynott did have a great voice as well as that guy from 'Deep Purple' and later 'White Snake', David Coverdale; he was also fine as hell, one sexy white boy
