Same with the bolded, so the letdown factor probably plays a big role in my opinion on the band.

Still pretty mindblowing that you could ask 1,000 rock guitarists or critics today who were the top 10 most iconic players of all time, and a large percentage of them would name 3 guys who all played in the same band at one point.
You think Jeff Beck has that much pull?

They all played in a major role in shaping the genre so it's not really surprising to me.
