I'm really just trying to compare them to bands that are already on the site. There's so many bands that I love that I know have no place on the site but I think some of these ones do. -
I also love many of the bands mentioned, but I think your letting your sentimentality cloud your judgement. As Geoff said, they're not what I associate with the site. IMO, of course. -
The Georgia Thunderbolts - Stand Up. I've only just heard of these guys, I'll have to go on a deep dive. Killer vocals.

So obviously you know that my idea of hard rock, sleaze and glam is quite a bit different from a lot of people who frequent the site and I also have a more encompassing view of AOR as well but here's my take: America: Absolutely I think they fit as either lite AOR or Hard Rock in some spots. Christopher Cross: Yes, although he is soft rock I would have to say that he also falls into the category of AOR. Air Supply: Same as Christopher Cross but with some pomp influence too. Collective Soul: Collective Soul is a modern classic rock band imo and absolutely should be on the site. Live: nope Creed: I would say yes, it's weird that Alter Bridge and Scott Stapp's solo stuff is on the site but Creed isn't. Stone Temple Pilots: I'd say yes. Especially from Purple on. Goo Goo Dolls: They're one of my favorite bands but I don't think they fit here. Alice in Chains: Big no. Soundgarden: Maybe, they have big guitars and soaring vocals. Pearl Jam: See Soundgarden. Nirvana: No Mudhoney: I love Mudhoney with all my heart but they don't belong here. Kid Rock (Rock and southern rock releases only): I hate Kid Rock but if Andrew W.K. is here he probably should be too. Genesis: The Peter Gabriel stuff for sure. Pink Floyd: Yes Emerson, Lake, & Palmer (Powell): Yes The Rolling Stone: Absolutely The Beatles: Yes Also, I'd like to see Creedence, ELO and a few others on the site as well.

I absolutely love "The Cars". They were a big part of my life growing up, but I don't think they're HH material. A rock band for sure, as you said, but I think of them more like "INXS", another great rock band at it's core, but not HH worthy. IMO, of course.
