And do you really understand just how insanely huge Led Zeppelin was long before there was an MTV hype machine?

GNR was popular with both the (later) 80s and (early)90s generations, hence my comment. I was not speaking of "twenty years". As Appetite came out in '87, and their success translated through the mid-90s, it's a fair statement., with not a trace of 'hyperbole"...

Yes, I know how huge Zep was- I lived through it. Feel free to "take apart" my post, if that's your thing. But read my post again before you do- I was not comparing Zeppelin to GNR in any fashion, I was using them as a standard of popularity level, i.e. the biggest band in the world during their apex of popularity. And for those that question that, tell me who WAS the biggest band from 1987 to, say, 1993. And someone will say Nirvana, and I'll say you'd better research it first, lol...
