Right I challenged two younger coworkers on who was the best hard rock band 3ver........all in all I won that challenge with everyone else agreeing with me
BY FAR the best band to ever grace this planet! All of their albums are great. My personal favorite is 'Physical Graffiti.' I will never get tired of listening to Zeppelin.
who cares , its a great album, not all mainstream music is bad the people who always say that are upper middle class hipsters who have been spoiled and pampered their whole lives and need to try and make out they're cool by saying they ain't mainstream OR its people who read to many music magazines fuck um! there's alot of underground music that is cataclosmicly shite as well
Still played on rock radio? What they meant to say was that Stairway is the most popular song in recorded history. Reaching a point in your life when you listen to this song, over and over, for an entire summer is like losing your virginity or first getting your drivers license and if you don't know what I'm talking about then summer is right around the corner. Get on it!
John Bonham died on September 25th 1980, he was then buried in October 1980 in Rushock Parish churchyard, Worcestershire. Great drummer such a loss. (1948-1980)
Zeppelin is everything. They're one of the softest, yet hardest bands in history. Zep was all over the place.. dabbling in folk, pop, hard rock, blues, metal, and classical. They're my favourite band... and although I may have some biases... I'm well aware of the criticisms and agree with some. Were they a metal band? No.. but you can't say they didn't have elements of metal and were one of the pioneering bands in that genre. I think most metal artists would tend to agree.
Even has elements of metal, it's just folk rock, blues rock and hard rock. Metal is Metallica, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Blind Guardian, Pantera, Slayer, Black Sabbath, etc. XD
Miklos Salomon Lopez Zeppelin was the first band to be labeled as Heavy Metal by critics even though the band didn't like the title. Obviously there were much heavier bands that came after them but they're probably the first. It is debated wether Zeppelin or Sabbath are the first major band to make metal music.
Sorry, but Zeppelin's early albums were NOT released to critical acclaim. They were largely dismissed by critics and treated pretty badly. It's the entire reason IV was released without any reference to the band or band members, with symbols only (beating Prince on this by a coupe of decades). It was only after the release of IV that they began to gain the critical appreciation they were due. However, it took many years before their true greatness was properly appreciated.
Yeah I know man ''Thank You'' is a great song haha I know all Zep songs there my favourite band but Beatles were the best tho in terms of world changing
@@aallbeerrtttoo if you say queen is trash you forget we are the Champions song?? NO 1 FAMOUS SONG ON HISTORY UNtill Now people in this era know we are the Champions song
Beatles = BEST Zeppelin = FAVORITE There IS a difference ! And let me say this... my "secret fave" Zep song is "Carouselambra". The middle when Jimmy hits the A-B-A--- C !!! chords... and Plant yells, "I heard the WOORRRD.." ahhhhhh....
The second highest selling band ever. But considering the way they changed the industry, probably the most powerful band ever. You may never see another band whose every member shows up in every top 10 for their skill. ( Page is the greatest ever).
Plant was asked in an interview about Stairway, did the crowd love it when you guys 1st played it. He laughed and said, I think the crowds were board when we 1st played it.
Nothing in The History of Led Zeppelin about how the group got its name? I only know it vaguely, something about Plant (or somebody) wanting to call his new group The New Yardbirds and Clapton (or somebody) saying "That'll go over like a lead zeppelin". Or something like that. I was kind of looking forward to a more definitive account.
dwc1964 can't remember who it was, maybe Keith Moon from The Who like the guy above said, but they were jamming with someone and he (keith Moon?) said something like, "We should start a band, it's gonna fly like a Led Balloon!" Page or whoever it was liked the sound of it and changed it to Led Zeppelin. I THINK, this is correct.
dwc1964 it was John Entwistle of the who, page, plant, moon, and entwistle had an idea of a supergroup and entwistle joked that it would go down like a "lead" zeppelin if it were to happen. They then changed it to "led" as to not confuse us americans haha
And another funny thing... the title track to "Houses Of The Holy".... is on the NEXT album !!! "Physical Grafitti" !!! "We didn't have room for it". That took some balls. Like NO title for Zep 4 or ANY words ANYWHERE on jacket (Atlantic Records absolutely hated that).
You forgot "Coda" album, the compilation of song unused on other records, released after Bonzo's death (R.I.P. John Bohnam, the greatest drummer of them all).
I find it incredibly tragic that John Bonham AND John Lennon, 2 rock legends died within 2 months of each other. Bonham in October, and Lennon in December.

To everyone saying this isn't heavy metal, think about the other music of the time, they're considered heavy metal because it was way heavier than any other music before it and they were the founders of heavy metal along side Black Sabbath. Although now everyone would think of them as hard rock because of all the heavier music there is to compare it to now. This is why they are heavy metal!!
Jakob Holt Listen to Going to California, The Battle of Evermore, The Rain Song, and most of Led Zeppelin III, far from Heavy Metal. Communication Breakdown, Immigrant Song, and Achilles Last Stand approach metal, but that's really about it.
Some people don't count it as an actual Led Zeppelin album, because it was released just to fulfill their contract with Atlantic Records after Bonham's death (being just a compilation of songs that didn't make it into their previous albums).
tnightwolf. They weren't under contact with Atlantic after Houses of the Holy. They formed their own Record Label. Swan Song. Swan Song was tied to Atlantic but Zep didn't have to produce albums on an Atlantic schedule.
@@josephreynolds4649 since Swan Song (the vanity label to give them creative freedom) was distributed thru Atlantic, they still had one album left in their contract for distribution...they put out Coda.
TheAdultsswimer I'd try watching the video before trying to correct me. Unclog your ears and actually listen, and maybe you might hear the narrator say "with a unique brand of heavy metal fused with blues, rock, and folk". She didn't even hint at the band being a catalyst; she straight up called them a heavy metal band, which the band absolutely abhors.
Glad to see the flame war was averted. We need more of you guys. Also, I have no opinion on LZ, other than to say that I love them regardless of how they are classed.
Hello, I am seeking a Led Zeppelin Historian. I am hoping you can help me. They found the two people on the cover of the Woodstock album wrapped in the blanket. In the UA-cam video "Led Zeppelin - Since I've been loving you Live (HD)" there is a girl in the audience that they pan to twice. She is a dark haired girl with major blue eyeliner on. They show her first at 2:37 and again at 7:46 at the end of this video. I have been watching this particular video for years and I have always wondered if we can find out what happened to this girl like we found out what happened to the two people on the Woodstock album cover? Thanks very much.
You must mean music artists (why do people leave out the "music" part on these lists I'll never know). They have nothing on Bach, Beethoven, Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci, Rembrandt, Shakespere, Pablo Picasso, Vincent Van Gogh, Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allan Poe, Robert Frost, etc. Again...Music artists...respect!!!
how cool must is be to play for your dad's LEGENDARY rock band.
R.I.P. John Bonham best drummer of all time.
indeed
but John Bonham is the actual best drummer
Ian Paice is no less...
Best *rock* drummer of all time.
Definitely number 1 best drummer of all time, he's a maniac
I feel SOOOOOO bad for people who don't listen to led zeppelin.
Me too
Right I challenged two younger coworkers on who was the best hard rock band 3ver........all in all I won that challenge with everyone else agreeing with me
I don't
Me
Don't. Without them we wouldn't have gotten hair rock, cock rock, arena rock, anthem rock .. you know, all that typical stupidity.
BY FAR the best band to ever grace this planet! All of their albums are great. My personal favorite is 'Physical Graffiti.' I will never get tired of listening to Zeppelin.
Led Zeppelin II is my personal favorite. When it comes to Zeppelin, there were no bad choices (except for In Through The Out Door)
who cares , its a great album, not all mainstream music is bad
the people who always say that are upper middle class hipsters who have been spoiled and pampered their whole lives and need to try and make out they're cool by saying they ain't mainstream OR its people who read to many music magazines
fuck um!
there's alot of underground music that is cataclosmicly shite as well
naw the beatles and pink floyd are better
+Indigo Aura sorry but have to disagree
Guitar gadu 1950 and beyond Fine I will put led above floyd but Beatles will remain my number 1
It brings tears of happiness to my eyes when i think about Led Zeppelin.
Stefan Raeuber Wow that's sad!
Me too

John Bonham died on September 25th 1980, he was then buried in October 1980 in Rushock Parish churchyard, Worcestershire. Great drummer such a loss. (1948-1980)
Robert Plant great voice, Jimmy Paige the best guitar player, Jon Bonham best drummer ever. John Paul Jones base player. They were Led Zepplin.
BEST Band ever.
Led Zeppelin isn't one of the greatest bands of all time... THEY ARE THE GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME
Wian Esterhuyse your profile pic is my background on my phone
You scared me for a sec

Wrapping Cigars have now surpassed them in patriotism! Build the wall!!!

Led Zeppelin is not heavy metal, at their hardest, they`re hard rock.
they breathed life into heavy metal with other bands

Shammo Hamid led zeppelin inspired what we know as heavy metal along with black sabbath a few years later
I appreciate how loyal they were to each other... very refreshing to see those qualities in a band

the. best. band. ever.
Led Zeppelin best band EVER.
Since I've Been Loving You is there best song AND the best song ever written.
agreed.
IrishBasterd ... I very much agree with you there. On a mellower note , "Thank You" is a beautiful song and wonderfully written.
Yeah I know man ''Thank You'' is a great song haha I know all Zep songs there my favourite band but Beatles were the best tho in terms of world changing

And let me say this... my "secret fave" Zep song is "Carouselambra".
The middle when Jimmy hits the A-B-A--- C !!! chords... and Plant yells, "I heard the WOORRRD.." ahhhhhh....
What about Queen, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stone, The Who.
Wow Led Zeppelin got really creative with their album names
The second highest selling band ever. But considering the way they changed the industry, probably the most powerful band ever. You may never see another band whose every member shows up in every top 10 for their skill. ( Page is the greatest ever).
Beatles also

I just love Led Zepp, everytime I drum with my band or any led zepplin track the bohnam insperation in me comes out! love em!
But lest we forget presence has one of their best songs Achilles Last Stand
I can’t believe people would call them heavy metal it’s hard rock raw blues/blues and rock
I’m a fan of led zeppelin from Australia
Plant was asked in an interview about Stairway, did the crowd love it when you guys 1st played it. He laughed and said, I think the crowds were board when we 1st played it.
Led Zeppelin 4 is the best album to be released ever
Ten Years Gone is their best song
AGREED
Going to California.
greatest rock band of all time
Rush is Better
Queen is better
@@worshipkyama9566 not even close.
Queen sits under the lap of the Rock Gods Led Zeppelin
@@vanplq8841 they are a close second though😅
@@worshipkyama9566 you like Pink Floyd or The Beatles?
greatest artist of all time period
WHO EVER COMES FROM A GENERATION MY GENERATION OF REAL MUSICIANS AND MUSIC RAISE YOUR GOD DAMN FISTS ✊🏾 KEEP UM UP HIGH
Its not as well known as others one this list but the battle of evermore is probably my favourite song, its very experimental
led zeppelin was NOT heavy metal. they were relatively heavy for their time before black sabbath came along and virtually invented the genre
I wish I could make a time machine just so I could see LED-ZEPPELIN perform
The four corners of talent now and forever.
My father listened to Led Zeppelin on the radio in college!
What a band makes me so happy
Anyone who disproves Led Zeppelin because they think they "stole" song needs only to look at their entire catalog...
Greatest thing in existence period.
Then, now, and forever...ZEPPELIN RULES!!!
Led Zeppelin II knocked The Beattles Abby Road off the #1 spot on the charts
Bonham died in September 1980 not October!
I couldn’t even listen to the video I was just jamming to the music💀
Nothing in The History of Led Zeppelin about how the group got its name?

Yes, I've heard/read this theory before. As well as some others. Which one is true, verified and sourced? That's what AskMojo was supposed to tell me.
dwc1964 it was John Entwistle of the who, page, plant, moon, and entwistle had an idea of a supergroup and entwistle joked that it would go down like a "lead" zeppelin if it were to happen. They then changed it to "led" as to not confuse us americans haha
A melhor de rock de todos os tempos LED ZEPPELIN.
And another funny thing... the title track to "Houses Of The Holy".... is on the NEXT album !!! "Physical Grafitti" !!!
"We didn't have room for it". That took some balls.
Like NO title for Zep 4 or ANY words ANYWHERE on jacket (Atlantic Records absolutely hated that).
They had room, Plant just felt like House of the Holy sounded too much like Dancing Days, so he held it back for physical graffiti
very cool, I miss John and I hope I can see them play one day
I did , I saw them in Madison square garden '73
Lucky
Matteo Echegaray yes, I was born in the wrong decade. I really have seen live only Black Sabbath, Elton John and Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
Great band, one of the best/greatest rock bands.
The greatest band of all time. It's unfortunate that the Beatles shadow over so many other artists, especially Zeppelin
Same Kashmir is epic but whole lotta love and rock n roll are my favourite
I love Led Zeppelin!
For the record Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp was played WAY more frequently live than Immigrant Song
Beatles are the best band of all time
Whenever you walk into a guitar center you immediately hear stairway to heaven
When you walk into heaven, I bet theres a stairway to a led zeppelin concert. 😆😁
