That's a pretty good rock compilation album.
However, why "you shook me all night long" instead of "Whole lotta Rose"?

Ugh. So many of these suggestions are played out and boring. It wouldn't be any different than listening to your local crappy classic rock station.

The problem is obviously that songs which aren't on the best rock list ever, are probably not good enough to be on it.

Better would be to list the best rock albums and not just songs...

That would be a reasonable trade-off. And I really shouldn't have omitted "Lola" and "A Whiter Shade of Pale."
