I'd say they are. I think the general timeframe of classic rock ends around the time that hair metal began to wane, and grunge began to become popular, so the Police, who were around during the 80's, would be classic rock.

 

 

....to begin classic rock discussion, I actually bought a Police greatest hits compilation today, along with John Lennon's Imagine, and a Whitesnake dvd. :naughty:

I grew up listening to Queen, they were my first favourite rock band. :biggrin2: And my mum has always been a big Bon Jovi fan, so I've had Bon Jovi tunes pounded into my head since day one, haha...

 

I also like The Beatles, Bowie, The Police, Eric Clapton (I always wanna write 'Eric Crapton' because of a typo on this Japanese CD cover that I once saw, LOL), Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac, and The Moody Blues :mf_rosetinted:
