But then again, that definition seems so elusive.
Led Zeppelin were one of the most popular and successful bands for their time as far as albums and concert sales (& radio airplay except Top 40), but they really weren't a band that released singles (except for an editted version of Whole Lotta Love) in hopes topping the Pop Charts eg Billboard like Pop acts do.
