Led Zeppelin were an English rock band that formed in September 1968. Led Zeppelin consisted of Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Bonham, and John Paul Jones. With their heavy, guitar-driven sound, Led Zeppelin are regarded as one of the first heavy metal bands. Their rock-infused interpretation of the blues also incorporated rockabilly, reggae, soul, funk, jazz, classical, Celtic, Indian, Arabic, folk, pop, Latin and country. The band did not release the popular songs from their albums as singles in Britain, as they preferred to develop the concept of album-oriented rock.
Over 25 years after disbanding following Bonham's 1980 death, Led Zeppelin continue to be held in high regard for their artistic achievements, commercial success, and broad influence. The band have sold more than 300 million albums worldwide,including 109.5 million sales in the United States.Led Zeppelin are ranked No. 1 on VH1's list of the 100 greatest artists of hard rock.

Definately the greatest band ever.
Great, great rock ‘n’ roll!!
best. band. ever.
it is the best band in the world
with out a doubt the greatest ever
The fucking best band on this world.
No one comes close…...except maybe The Rolling Stones
The Best
As good as it gets and probably as good as its ever gotten. :p
They don’t make music like they used to… best band ever.
i attended one of their last concertes. 1980 in zurich. i got the ticket from a lady with whom i worked with. she stole the ticket from her son – because she won’t let him go to rock-concerts. (sometimes a great thing being an old man.)
Ohh, I bet that kid hates you. ;)
I would!
why me? if there is somebody to blame then his mother. anyway his oedipus complex has been healed.
life is strange life is weird – belief it or not i met that guy last night at my usual place . he doesn’t hate me. :) we had some beer and we smoked a … uhm cigarette.
Hah!
I am glad he doesn’t hate you. I would. ;)
I just had the Led Zeppelin box "The Complete Studio Recordings" today, which i'm listening right now, and i want to share a feeling here! One that i feel everytime that i listen to these guys, which is f*ing pissed off cause i'm never going to see them live... it really pisses me off!
On righ now: Dazed and Consufed
Same thing here when I hear Nirvana, though a part of it still lives, along with Grohl. It feels a bit confusing, especially when I'm watching a music video, looking at Cobain and then at Dave in the back, with his long hair. Makes me want to have been born a few years earlier. ;)
"Makes me want to have been born a few years earlier.", I was going to say that in my earlier comment... funny!
E visto que és Portuguesa, porque não falar em Português! Como ia dizendo, é bastante fdd (desculpa lá a linguagem :P) gostarmos de algo que já não podemos ver, e Nirvana realmente também é uma daquelas bandas que dispensa apresentações, e das minhas favoritas, no entanto à algo por detrás dos Led Zeppelin que mexe comigo. :)
é o rock mais puro que há! a Black Dog é brilhante. Se bem que no outro dia estive a ver na Fox o filme do Oliver Stone sobre os Doors e pode-se dizer que o Sr. Jim Morrison é verdadeiramente um poeta, aparte as loucuras dele. Coisas de génios. =P
(eu ia falar em português, mas aqui o pessoal fica todo incomodado pq as cenas devem estar na lingua comum e bla bla bla. Bah! Hell with that!) xD
e só reparei depois na quote que tens dele no teu perfil. xP
Mas há algum termo de uso sobre que especifique que é "obrigatório" que se fale em Inglês? Eu até dei uma vista de olhos na diagonal mas não vi nada :x
Anyway, back to English xP the "The Doors" movie's very nice, and yes Jim was a genie and kind of crazy, but just like Led Zeppelin, their music was amazing. These two are the bands that i mostly listen to :) i was just listening to Led Zeppelin I and II!
Whatever mood you are in,happy,upset,angry or simply jus' bored,spin their cds…it heals all!
The best band ever.
I love their song "D'yer Mak'er".
D'yer Mak'er is a great song. 311 did a cover of that song that's ALMOST as good as the original. At least I think it is. But then again 311 is my favorite band ;)
I like all their stuff, but any thing off Physical Graffiti is best.
I heard that there are talks going on that may involve a re-union of the band in London or something. Did anybody else hear this?
No, I have not heard any thing yet, but will keep my radar up and let you know if I hear anything!
Thanks Henry, I eagerly await your findings.
If that happens… someone has to pay me the trip to London… so… who's gonna be?

Damn you lucky Britons
There ya go, I just heard on the way home tonight. Man $255 a pop, ouch.
...but in the long run, there is still time to change the road you're on…
YEAH THEY ARE ENGLISH!
our shadows taller than our soul
there walks a lady we all know-ow . . .
Long live the Led Zeppelin may it continue its inevitable decent forever.
welcome back guys it has been a long time. dont ever stop playing together again. best return ever.
dont call it a comeback!!!!!!! lol
I mean yeah the beatles are graet but these guys pretty much shaped rock and roll for years to come, you can find any genre of music within their songs. Rock, metal, classical, blues, folk, even funk(Trampled Underfoot). By far the greatest band to walk the planet and I'm so glad they are back together! LONG LIVE THE FUCKING ZEP MAN!!!!!
I love their song "Tangerine"It gives me a happy feeling
what can i say that hasn’t already be said thanks god you stuffed up with the platypus but led zeppelin was just right
