    IMO, the Beatles belong on their own shelf, immune from any comparisons. They influenced all that came after. They are and will likely remain the most important act in pop music history.

    Very good analysis of each category. I was so absorbed with the Beatles in the 70’s (and still am) that I missed the initial impact of Led Zeppelin’s releases. After much persuasion my band mates finally dragged me to a midnight showing of “The Song Remains the Same” in 1981 and I became an instant fan and bought up all of their records. I love both bands, but the Beatles are no doubt my favorite and I agree with the Super-i-ometer’s results!

However, Zep is also my personal favorite, and I actually think TSRTS and Presence completely kick ass. No Quarter live is a masterpiece IMHO! Great video.

    The Beatles were the musical wallpaper of my childhood which I kind of took for granted. And they split up before I left Primary School. Led Zep, Pink Floyd , Yes and co. were the new Gods to worship - and the were good and very talented Gods. As more time passes the great music of the 70's still sounds just as good as it did then but the music of the Beatles weirdly sounds more original as it ages (Eleanor Rigby for instance in almost 60 years no'one has come close to writing a song that sounds that way).
    Nice post Andy Edwards. 35 minutes of my life well spent.

    Huge Zeppelin fan most of my life. Like you, my appreciation of The Beatles has grown immensely much later in my life. When you announced a THE BEATLES vs LED ZEPPELIN
    Super-i-ometer battle I knew it would be the wipe out that it turned out to be. And yet, while The Beatles are not my personal favorite band, I believe they could objectively be called THE greatest band ever. I doubt I would be able to effectively argue a case against it. Would love to see a Super-i-ometer battle pitting Bob Dylan vs Neil Young. Would love to see what kind of records you would need to calibrate the Super-i-ometer with on that one!

    • @jdmresearch

    You say you've not got any Beatles records, but a few CDs. I'm gonna guess you've got Revolver, Pepper, White Album and Abbey Road. Maybe Magical Mystery Tour is there? I'd like to know, out of interest, which Beatles albums you do actually own. I'd recommend that you should take a moment to play Ticket To Ride on a good system/headphones just as a reminder of their pop excellence before it got weird. I'm a huge fan of the explosive confidence of that song; and how it is such a turning-point in their studio techniques and their abilities as musicians.
    And next on the Super-I-ometer ... Floyd vs Radiohead anyone?
    (I'd also be interested in any random cassettes that are kicking about your place - particularly compilations you made, or tapes made for you - like it was in the old days.)

    It’s a bit of a “great apples” versus “great oranges” experiment. For me, the Beatles left behind the most magical song catalogue and discography. They even had the most engaging personalities. But Zeppelin maybe the best live band with that huge sound. Yes, the first two Zeppelin albums are derivative but they were also super heavy - even now. So, I guess a slight edge to the Beatles; since they actually made the world a better place :)

  • @G60syncro
    @G60syncro Рік тому +1

    Tha point about composition illustrates the stance my bandmate took upon the Beatles after hanging out with me... When he started playing guitar, he was nurtured by a friend that told him the blues and the Stones were where it was at... The Beatles was just f*g music. When we started playing together he would notice little flourishes, fills, recording tricks and asked me where that came from... "Well I nicked that from the Beatles!!" I would reply. Since then he's gotten into it and realised how the songwriting and production was so on point!! He started gettin into 7th chords and some timing quirks that the Beatles were doing.
    I will add regarding the final score.. As a fan of both bands I will hand the Beatles the top mark for the score because they got there first and Led Zeppelin just built on that groundwork... That being said, in the grand scheme of things it just doesn't take that much away form Led Zep!!! The score looks dismal but I think of it on like a log scale where the big numbers mean just an incremental difference.

    Love this video. Both bands were brilliant, iconic, pioneering. I would agree with The Beatles probably being out there on their own on almost every metric. A stunning 7 year recording career. But Zeppelin are up there with just a handful of other classic rock acts that built upon and expanded the Beatles’ legacy. Thinking of Pink Floyd up to 1983, Steely Dan, the Doors, the Rolling Stones (particularly 1968 to 1972), the Who (1969 to 1973), Roxy Music (1972 to 1975), David Bowie (1971 to 1980), the Velvet Underground.

    When you were talking about album covers. I really liked your descriptions of all the brilliance of Zeppelin’s albums.
    But when you got to the Beatles Abbey Road. The first thing I actually noticed was how forefront the boys were but how far into the background the shot went. With the rd and the cars. All of it in focus. But then I looked at the boys. Paul’s bare feet. I thought you would give it to the Beatles on the bases of what that represented. The theories and mysteries it created. With this at its pinnacle.
    I don’t think Zeppelin had anything like that.

    The Beatles started it all and I lived through the magic. Led Zep 2 blew me away, but the Beatles have to be my no.1.

    I can see how hard it was for you to have the beatles to win ...i too adore both of the bands and of course beatles were the 60s...zeppelin the 70s and that also has to be taken into account ..and in fact just like footballers and athletes of other eras are impossible to really compare with with our days athletes...so are different eras of music ..i too choose beatles but can relate to whoever chose led zeppelin ..and with a lot of good reasons to do so ....they both are the best at what they did and that is what i can add to the debate

    The running time for the movie 200 motels is 1h38m. And its exactly 1h38m too long. Also its a totally unique creation that also inflicts on the viewer a totally unique feeling of pain and nausea.

      The biggest let down ever was when I got 200 Motels on VHS. Put me off the Flo and Eddie band

    Why would anyone want to compare the Beatles to ANY group? The facts and comments speak for themselves.

    To be fair, any band would fall short against the Beatles... I love both about equally, but for different reasons... like you, I generally prefer the mighty Zep.

    Led Zeppelin sounds dated and very derivative(Blues-based) - lot of lawsuits. But if you listen to Abbey Road, recorded in 1968 - 1969, over 50 yrs ago, it sounds like it came out yesterday. Nobody can touch the Beatles for the innovations and songwriting. A Collective Genius. And they did it in their 20's and in less than a decade. No Comprasion!!!

    Superiometer was spot on. Beatles are the superior and my long time favorite (but actually I’ve heard them so much in my life, I don’t really listen anymore).

    Great video Andy and fair result but . . . . . LZ's album covers knock socks off of the Beatles covers, also . . . . Super-i-ometer is missing the 'how many of the bands albums would get in the top 10 albums of all time?' LZ win this 3-0: Led Zeppelin 3, Physical Graffiti, Presence. Love your channel - any chance of doing something on the great Burt jansch?
