I think of it all as one continuum, that was only disrupted once grunge came around & made the hair bands GTFO. Also the classic rock station here played GNR & Aerosmith & all that mixed in w/ Led Zep & so on.
By the way, what's the radio genre for the Beatles? I never hear them on classic rock or oldies stations.
Grunge was heavily influenced by 70's music. You're not big on music history, huh? No offense, but if you put 60's and 70's guitar rock in the same category as Hair Metal and 80's pop, you don't seem to have even been exposed to what I'm talking about...the music I'm talking about isn't cheesy, though I'll totally admit some of the 80's synth-pop I like can be cheesy, but that music is more "fun" than "intense."
The Beatles are considered 60's pop (or Mod) and you'd most likely hear their early stuff on a station that played "oldies" from the 50's and 60's that also played bebop, bubble gum, and Motown.
However, the Beatles' later stuff should be played on Classic Rock stations, and IME it usually is.
