The next Zep?

Tony M. said:
Why not give them credit for themselves rather than comparing them
to a mediocre at best band from over 40 years ago that somehow have
since been elevated to an undeserved status that makes them the objects
of an admiration that borders on the fringes of fanatical cultism?
It's even worse than the Jimi thing. At least he had talent.

Sheesh, talk about drinking the cool aid...

Tony, Love ya-- respect ya-- truly mean it--

and -- your entitled to your opinion--- and I would not even BEGIN to try and change it not 1 iota --- BECAUSE WELL, where would the fun in that be???

AND then I wouldnt be able to parade out LOVELY numbers like the ones in the link listings below :)

Led Zeppelin discography - Wikipedia

Check the list of// Silver --Gold--Platinum and DIAMOND (and DOUBLE DIAMOND--to be clear that is TWENTY THREE TIMES OVER PLATINUM--I MEAN REALLY!?!?) // for sales of this "mediocre" band......



you may hate them --- but they are and always will be a force in Rock Music --- period.

How many (truly) mediocre bands from 50 years ago still get this much airplay? uhm........come on ????

Fanatical Cultism, perhaps....... or maybe just maybe, they really just dont suck ----

I LOVE these guy's energy, tone and spirit. I especially love the old school vibe. I hope the rest of their album is like this song!!!!

There are some people who truly just don't like a band that is idolized. Maybe the music is not exactly what they like, maybe they think the band is undeserving...

I know a guy who feels exactly the same way about The Rolling Stones...he truly believes they suck and are undeserving of their fame and fortune...and they have
at least 5 years and Many more albums on Zeppelin...

Really? The Doors? Morrison's psychotic, moody, drug-inducted rants of "poetry" with a blaring organ in the background? Maybe when I was 16, but not now, at 26.

To each his own...I love The Doors and I have have always loved Jim's poetry. And...Robby Krieger played a pretty mean SG when he wanted.

By the way, I'm still only 16...at 58.

Great... yet another thread turns into the Jimi and Zep Bash-A-Thon!
Click to expand...

What Jimi Bash-A-Thon?
I said Jimi had talent.

The 4 (yes, only 4) albums he did while alive hold up to this day.
All the Hendrix estate cash cow milking is another matter.
They seem Hell bent to market anything he was even remotely
associated with regardless of the quality or lack thereof.
I know it's about money but a great deal of this
stuff should never have seen the light of day.

...but we did get Rainbow Bridge out of it.

and...

Maybe there is a reason so many threads turn into Led Zeppelin Bash-A-Thons?
I don't see threads turning into Deep Purple Bash-A-Thons and they stole everything too.
Maybe the difference is that Deep Purple totally kicked a$$ in a live situation?
 
DEEP PURPLE SUCKED! Richie blackmoor is a hack--- that bass player couldnt keep time with a watch --- and the drummer UGH --- then the keyboards--- how STUPID heavy metal keyboards? Lord my arse ... his real name is Wanklestein
look at these pathetic standings .......
Deep Purple discography - Wikipedia

hardly even a Platinum ......losers.......
 
ANY Diamonds???????? nope they suck HACKS --- HACKS I SAY!

NOT EVEN ABBA--- has the level of DIAMOND catastrophic SUCKFESTIeNESS the Zep put out!

ABBA discography - Wikipedia




Have you all noticed I found this neat ranking of certifications and am having a ball using it while also aggravating Tony M ???? have ya???

JUST increasing my post count Tony nothing personal :)


Truth be told I actually LIKE Deep Purple --- im just being a DICK :) :)
