I think Glitter posted a list somewhere, also… under the "everything else…" forum I think.
Wow, I have more glam rock than I realized… I just posted my vid but I’ll probably do another one.

Glam rock is more the 70’s based stuff, the T-Rex type sound. Hair metal could be a sub-genre.
I’ve edited the below list with my knowledge. I won’t play music purist for those who’ve chosen other tracks…David Bowie (anything from 75 – 80)
T-Rex
Elton John, very album dependent. (Yellow brick road has moments)
Gary Glitter (C’mon, c’mon)
The Sweet (Ballroom bash)
Alice Cooper, track dependent
Marc Bolan, yes, yes yes!!!!
Mott the Hoople
Queen, 70’s fer sure. Bohemian Rhapsody, FB Girls etc.
Suzi Quatro
Joan Jett (early 80’s, stop after I love rock n roll)
Hello Sailor
Early Spilt Enz
Slade
Status Quo (mid 70’s)
David Essex, pure pop but had his moments
KissAll these are varying forms of metal but not really glam rock. Although Hair metal could be considered a sub-genre of glam rock. Those I’ll put an H next to.

Edited to add the top list too! -
I do have to disagree about the Marilyn Manson one although obviously his entire music collection isn’t glam rock…but a lot of songs from his Mechanical Animals CD were very glam rock inspired, and his video for Dope Show definitely has a lot of androgyny in it which was a huge part of glam rock…
Not trying to be a music snob, just throwing in my .2 https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
