Sure I quite liked their Beatles-pastiche, but come on…

Zeppelin were in a different stratosphere. I would add the Who, The Kinks, Floyd, the Clash, the Stones, Genesis (Gabriel era), a long list to be honest.

What they don’t do, is stand up to any serious scrutiny or lend themselves to “serious” headphone listening and for that reason they’ll always be 2nd or 3rd division. Bit like Saxon then really, but yeah….not quite as good…!!

I don’t know if I’d give them credit for decent albums, even, more like decent singles.
