I love them both, but this song puts The Who over the top IMHO.




I'm going with Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden also....
When KC wakes up from his blood pressure knocking him out, I'm kidding!
Got to be Led Zep for me. Killed way more brain cells listening to them than I did the Who.
The Who are incredible also, but Zep's better, IMHO.

And great song/video MR. Brings backs the early days of MTV for me.
Believe it or not kids, MTV used to actually have music videos.....

I think it, KC says it.

Anyway, The Who is obviously superior, because Keith Moon wasn't in Zeppelin.


While I like Keith Moon, John Bohnam was just such a raging drunk....well honestly they where both rather awsome drummers and apparently could survive on booze and drugs alone....hard choice really... I don't think I know where I am going with this one...some where out far far far into OT left field. =o]

ps I voted for the Zep =o]

No, Pink Floyd would have to be compared to another band. And personally, I dont think thats even possible really. Pink Floyd is that rare band, that even though people talk up SOOooo much, they are still better then the talk. That would be a pretty boring poll

Whos better? Pink Floyd or Pink Floyd?

I voted for Led Zeppelin as their tunes are much more meatyer that the Who. Now don't get me wrong the Who can do a good tune but they just couldn't do some thing like this;



Ignor the lyrics and just have the tune and you have the perfect music for big stompy robot showdowns

Though personally I prefer Pink Floyd to both of them.

Anyway, back on topic

As much as I like stairway to heaven, I have to say I like the Who a bit more.
Zeppelin's instrumental is great, but the vocals...nah.

And I like Black Sabbath more than the Who.

No love for CCR? I haven't seen any mentioning of them on this thread




This is an American rock song. Not any of that MTV spawned gak.

Led Zeppelin by a country mile.

Oh, and I will personally fight anyone who says that Moon is a better drummer than Bonham.

Yea, Bonham was a friggin insane drummer. Seriously, listen to Moby Dick, discussion over.




Ribbon Fox - I dont think the generation really has much to do with it, people who like Rock WILL know who these 2 bands are. The problem is, people cant seem to stay on fething target, its like the whole world has a severe case of ADHD or something

I'm 29, and I know who Led Zep and the Who are. Because I have taste.

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!!!
