Need more classic rock
Scuba_Steve:
Oh man, here I go
Pink Floyd- Piper At the Gates of Dawn (it's easier to get into IMO)
Dire Straits- Brothers In Arms (Simply cause it's awesome)
Jeff Beck - Jeff Beck Group (again, awesome)
Frank Zappa- Apostrophe (funny album, and an amazing composer)
Fleetwood Mac- Live In Chicago (Before stevie nicks got in the band)
Mott the hoople- All the young dudes (Old glam, before it went bad)
T-Rex- Electric Warrior (again, old glam...before it got screwed up)
Rory Gallagher- Irish Tour '74 (if anyone can find me a better guitarist, hook me up)
I can think of more, but that should get you started.
jcknbl:
I think the term "classic rock" might be more meaningless than "indie rock".
greenMonkey:
Agreed. That said...
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here
The Who - Tommy, Quadrophenia, Who's Next
The Doobie Brothers - The Best of the Doobies
Steely Dan - The Royal Scam, Aja (or just get Showbiz Kids: The Steely Dan Story, its a pretty good compilation)

I think it may have come to be born so that certain radio stations could easily describe to their audience what their sound is, where as "classic rock" is short hand for "what you saw at the local hockey arena/cow auction place back in the days of your youth and had a blast and people were passing around jugs of wine and man, why don't April Wine tour through this town every month, 'cause I would go see them every time".
Night Rocker:
most people have already mentioned some good bands but here is what i think the read deal is
Grateful Dead- good stuff but some of the songs are 10 minutes of guitar solos..good for driving to work
Wolfmother-great rock band that sounds like its from the 70's but i current great band, sorta like Led Zep but in a different world
The Who-GREAT STUFF, they created the rock opera so check out their album called "Tommy", The Who by Numbers, and Who's next
The Rolling Stones-they have a sound that lets you know who they are.
*checks cd rack*
Frank Zappa- if your looking for a sound that makes you go "huh?" and love it at the same time then he is for you
Queen-nice sounding depeding on how you look at it.still a goodie though
