I pick an album from your choices like Lorca by Tim Buckley; it’s an absolutely unconventional record and, in my opinion, dazzling. How can you say that the true rock is Black Sabbath (whom I appreciate anyway) when you’ve heard Lorca?

At least you can agree with me on the Vampire Rodents and the Residents, or should we let what Muffin said slide?

Rock is not just Deep Purple or Led Zeppelin. That's what the masses believe is solely rock. Rock is also and above all experimentation, madness, and the expression of extreme states of mind in completely unusual ways. But as long as one limits oneself to just listening to a piece, one will never understand.

I used to listen to Black Sabbath when I was 14... to listen to the Vampire Rodents, I need to take a day off ;)

Song form? Verse chorus verse? Riff? Maybe you didn't understand what I mean by Rock ;) it's a broad term that can encompass everything... take the Residents or the Vampire Rodents...

If I really said what I think, you would stone me immediately, so I'll keep it to myself ;)

It is impossible to have more expressive freedom and therefore artistic potential than what exists in rock; practically anything is allowed, as long as it makes sense. If it doesn't make sense, then we find ourselves in the realm of improvisation, and often jazz pops up. Personally, however, I find a work that has an "artistic" sense to be more expressive than one that lacks it. The cases where jazz reaches remarkable heights of expressiveness are precisely when it brushes against the shifting colors of rock... but that's just my opinion... you are free to think differently :)
