And my first poll as far as I can remember. Anywho, this was basically the great divider back in the 70s. Friendships were ended, and marriages were nulled. Which band was the best. And you can only choose one of these 2 or you dont count

The correct answer is the Velvet Underground.

Damn, that made me laugh something fierce. Thats about the truth of it though.


And like I said, I really do like both bands, for me, its never really be a pick one over the other, but I just like the feel of Zeppelin a bit more then the Who.


Also I think DAKKA needs a "PUNCH YOUR MOUTH" button or something. You know, for those that just CANNOT follow the most basic of forum rules

Post by: MadEdric


While I love Zep, it's The Who for me.
Listen to Quadrophenia, the whole album, in order and you have the greatest rock opera the world has ever known.
Listen to Keith Moon's drums, there is no end to it, it is varied and consistent at the same time.
Listen to John Entwhistle's bass, he is a genius. It took a group of 5-6 musicians to create the complex rhythms he put out after he died.
Listen to Pete Townsend's voice and guitar. Read the lyrics to Quadrophenia that he penned and see if you're not impressed.
Listen to Roger Daltrey's voice, clear cutting notes to screams that are still musical.

Led Zepplin is up there to, and my love for The Who does not mean Zep is any less, I just like the who more. While I own all the albums of both bands, it's The Who cds that are always in my car (this is where I listen to music the most).

Good Question KK, just wish more would put some thought into it and not be haters, but this is Dakka.

Post by: Ensis Ferrae


I voted Zep, And in response to MadEric, I would suggest a song off of the "How the West Was Won" album put out fairly recently, "Moby Dick" In it, John Bonham basically has a 17 minute long drum solo (the studio version, IIRC was 'only'12-15 minutes or so)

I also thoroughly enjoy the "how the band was formed" story, especially where Bonham is involved.

But for me, the Ultimate Zeppelin song, has to be Achilles Last Stand. I've told my wife to have it played at my funeral should I croak first.

As for The Who, TBH, the only songs of theirs I know is the "Who Song" (used as the theme for CSI), and Pinball Wizard.

Ledzep all day.

I despise The Who. Too jangly and bubble gum pop-ish, plus how many decent songs do they have? four? Pictures of Lily is funny, but not a good song, IMO. Won't get fooled again is a rock staple, and a cool song, but not as legendary as stairway.

Never listened to a bad Led Zepelin song. Well, not from before 1978.

Don't understand Sabbath and Ozzy. Too obnoxious for my tastes. IMO, ozzy has no substance to him. his lyrics are skin deep.

Rolling stones are fantastic. Dislike very little of them. I have to be in a certain mood though.

I had to go with the Who, simply because my best friend in high school made me listen to LZ constantly for months on end. Con-stant-ly. Whenever we were hanging out, whatever we were doing, LZ. At first, it was great. Then, it became annoying. In the end it was maddening. If they'd have made more music since then, I might have different opinion now, but they haven't. My feelings for LZ are much the same as Tom Hanks' for seafood at the end of Castaway.

Yeah, same. I used to sit and figure Bonham's parts out and try to play them. There's a few little corkers in there that I can play, like the stuttering bass drum figure in 'Good Times, Bad Times' - it was a bitch to figure out, but once you get the knack of it, it's so simple and clever. It's like a triplet pattern on the hi-hat and bass drum.

Agreed, sometimes it took awhile, but like you said, it always ended up being more simple then I started off thinking it was. The dude was talented thats for sure. Another great band I used to jam my bass to was Clutch. Those bass lines were fun as hell, and ranged from slow mellow, to pretty edgy.

Anywho, back OT, Zeppelin! WOOOHOOO!!!

And yea, when the levee breaks is one of their best. I used to practice playing my bass to their tunes often.


I'm 18. Led Zepplin: Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, John Bonham, Jimmy Page.

The Who: Roger Daltry, Pete Townshend, Keith Moon and John Entwistle.

Can I haz cheezeburger now?

I personally prefer Led Zepplin to The Who. I just prefer their music. As for drummers the only drummer who I think is better than John Bonham is Neil Peart from Rush. That man is something crazy behind the drum kit!

The who, because my dad likes zeppelin and used to play it incessantly when I worked for him.

I don’t care how good a song is, when you hear it a dozen times a day for four years in a row…

I choose the band which was led by Hugh Fitzcairn, since I was in fact born to be a prince of the universe.

Of these two, Led Zeppelin.
Otherwise it's a tossup between Queen and AkkaDakka

I have to say that was pretty funny... But almost true. Too much music these days is just junk, as is some older stuff.

Blarg, The Zombies aren't that great, Rob's voice really only has one tone to it...

Just my opinion, of course. I mean, I like Superbeast and Dragula as much as anyone, but Living Dead Girl, Foxy Foxy, He just can't pull out a voice that works with that sort of musical tone.

I agree with Rob Zombies solo career, and Ill add, I simply cannot stand the guy musically. But WhiteZombie his sound was perfect for their sound. And they made some really good tunes. I dunno why the hell he left that group TBH
