Although I just saw you said only 40 years old, so by that definition Zeppelin,

Pink Floyd, The Who, and many others produced some great "oldies," like Stairway to Heaven, Baba O'Riley, and many, many more. The greatest songs of all time, really -- not just oldies.

I'll assume you really meant 50+ years, so pre-1967. That narrows the field a lot.
