You keep saying its a generational thing but I not sure that's the case, acdc are before my time anyway. Also I like led zep, but only the epic stuff like stairway, not so much the bluesy stuff. I don't know who Frampton is.
For what its worth, my primary choice of rock music is late 90s/ early 00s punk. That is defiantly my era as I'm in my 30s.
It's a generational thing for me then. That's all I can think of. I could say they were crap, but that is obviously not true as they appeal to a lot of people, but I suspect generally to those people who heard them before they heard those who had influenced AC/DC.
By all accounts I should think that Queen, for example, are one of the best bands that ever strode into a recording studio, but I could never take them seriously, and it even took me two purchased LPs to realise it. Sting is another artist who leaves me totally flat [Indeed, if anyone wants that vinyl album of A Dream of Blue Turtles, that I tried to give away on here a few years ago they are welcome to it].
And FWIW, I was born into early 60's Pop, Rock, Psychedelic, Progressive, you name it. I don't really feel that I have an era as such though. Like yourself obviously I just like what I like, be it Gilbert & Sullivan, Mozart, Hendrix, Moody Blues, Nick Drake, Donovan, Beach Boys, Simple Minds, Talking Heads, XTC, the list is practically endless. And I discover music that I've never heard from almost any era and some of it astonishes me how good it is. A couple of years ago, for example, I decided to listen closely, pretty much for the first time, to some of Bjork's albums, and they were incredible. So music takes me where it will.
Here's a

Frampton Comes Alive album. Turn up the volume. You may like it.
