Led Zeppelin was an English rock band formed in London in 1968. The group comprised of vocalist Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page, bassist and keyboardist John Paul Jones, and drummer John Bonham.
With a heavy, guitar-driven sound, they are cited as one of the progenitors of hard rock and heavy metal, although their style drew from a variety of influences, including blues and folk music.
Led Zeppelin are one of the best-selling music artists of all time; their total record sales are estimated to be between 200 and 300 million units worldwide. Rolling Stone magazine described them as "the heaviest band of all time", "the biggest band of the Seventies", and "unquestionably one of the most enduring bands in rock history".
They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.

The narrator said it was debatable that Led Zeppelin was one of the greatest rock bands, that is not debatable, they are one of the greatest. In fact, they are often cited as the second greatest rock band, only behind the Beatles obviously.

If BONZO would of lived and Plant would of stayed and of course Page would of gotten cleaner they would of taken over the early 80's too. And I want to emphasize NO OTHER band was even close to Led Zeppelin and that is a fact . Zep believe it or not we're at their height of popularity in late 76 throughout mid 78.

Saw them in 73. My ears were ringing for days. They covered the stage with dry ice during "No Quarter". The actual building on the cover of "Physical Graffiti" has one more story than the photo on the cover. The guy on the cover of Zep 4, is not Peter Grant. Robert found this photo in a store in York, of a 19th. century English witch (cunning man), said to be one George Pickingill. 1816 - April 10, 1909. 92 years. Zep 3 had these two Freemason sayings on the runoff, near the paper label, on the original records. Written by Page himself. "Do What Thou Wilt", on one side and "So Mote It Be" on the other. As a sly message to the music critics. Steinway To Heaven -jpj

Elvis connections were very interesting! 1) That's not Robert's voice at the very end of "The Crunge." Stark difference in vocal tamber. I'm guessing Jones or Page? 2) Rolling Stones may have grossed as much, if not more, in the span of their career than Led Zep. 3) Next time maybe include Plant's Tolkien LOR references in "Ramble On?" 4) Maybe link references in Spinal Tap film with a road manager who always goes around with a bat? Grant was a menacing bull dog and his intimidation helped get the band up to the front of lines.

The most hidden fact is recordings of Robert Plant's original vocal style. You'll never hear it. First record I ever bought was the Guess Who. I confused them with what I really wanted; The Who. Then I got the Rod Stewart album with Maggie May. Then Led Zep 3. In 1973 I began college as a Music major. So I was loaded with rock and pop music, but everyone wanted me to teach them Stairway to Heaven. But personally it was Page's acoustic playing that most impressed me. I did drop Zepplin by the time Queen came out and never bought any of the Satan symbolism BS.

@@broeheemed32those lawsuits were because of how Led Zeppelin’s fame skyrocketed, other then a few words or a couple chords, the songs sounded nothing alike.

@@sicotshit7068 Yep. Those that accuse Jimmy Page of playing "sloppy" at the peak of their career (like in 1972-1973) refer to the fact that at a Led Zeppelin show, they never gave it to you the same way twice, and rarely did they just play the "studio" arrangement. They improvised all over the place, turned a 4-minute song into a 12-minute song, and a lot of what Page was playing he didn't even know he was going to play until the moment he played it. Those that criticized would be happier at an Eagles concert, where it was demanded by Henley that every song was played note-for-note like the studio cut.
