real fact: A radio station in the UK ran a competition where they got listeners to vote on "the best" rock musicians to form a imaginary super group, based on what part they played (drums, rhythm, lead, vocals, etc.) and were shocked/bemused that the winners of each category were all the members of Led Zeppelin. Best drummer? _John Bohnam._ Best Vocals? _Robert Plant._ Best Bassist? _John Paul Jones._ Best Lead? _Jimmy Page._ Now there were a couple of close ones (IIRC), like Plant ALMOST lost to Freddie Mercury, and John Paul Jones _just_ squeaked by David Gilmour, but when that's your competition, beating them out is _saying something._
I did the Zeppelin marathon every time I had to drive all day.
Jack Black 100% CORRECT!!! I LOVE LED ZEPPELIN!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
At 14 I watched the song remains the same at a sleep over. It changed how I perceived and what I expected from music, musicians and even myself. Listening even now at 54, feels like coming home.
That's right. They raised me up. I've been jamming with them my whole life. Over sixty in 2026. And still, I crank it up, every time Thanks guys for your dedication to your music and, your fans.
