I really would like to see your argument defending the fact that brought nothing new to the table.

I love Zeppelin. I'll repeat that the bands technical mastery is unparalleled. Page was in a favorable position and always had super gear. I would argue the most ground breaking thing about Zeppelin's first two albums is the sound quality. I mean other bands were covering blues records, but no one did it as great and as awesome as LZ.
I guess I would ask what YOU think is "revolutionary" about any thing on either album. Yes they were the best band and had the best sound hands down, but what was something you consider revolutionary about them?
