I like lots of young fart music. Just not most of the young fart stuff posted on this forum.

Re: Zeppelin

Rolling Stone Magazine HATED them. They slammed every one of their albums. The press in general hated them. They made their name off of underground FM stations and constant touring. They toured the US five times in their first year of existence. And each time they'd play bigger and bigger halls based solely on word of mouth.

After that it was the brilliance of the albums and highly publicized tours that made them the biggest grossing act of the 70s.

About 7-8 years ago VH1 did a "Top 100 Artists of all Time" poll based on votes from musicians, producers, and fans from all types of genres of music. Young and old.

1. The Beatles
2. Michael Jackson
3. Led Zeppelin

The mighty Zep isn't going anywhere. I see teens wearing Zep T-shirts all the time around here.
