I have pretty bad playlist with mostly songs from 90s/00s. Any recommendations from before? I have few songs from Beatles, U2, Queen, Eagles, some Pink floyd, that's it... :(

I just added Aerosmith (Should I be embarrassed I only found them recently? :lol ).. who else is worthy of adding?

I prefer rock/pop music mainly.. No country/jazz/R&B plz. I also don't believe rap was around before the 80s.
Recommend some good stuff!
