Worrying about the coolness factor is for teenage music snobs who haven't yet learned to stop worrying and just love uncool music for whatever it does have to offer.
Yep. Therefore, it's pretty much an inevitability they'll all come to love yacht rock as much as me someday. Even elephantor! It's the genre everyone ascends to after they've gotten all the experimental ****, extreme metal and hip-hop / random indie **** out of their systems.

On topic: Zeppelin are hit or miss, but 'No Quarter' and 'Achilles Last Stand' are great, great great.
