Because , as I said they were never seen & they were never heard.
which speaks volumes for their talent and success - 7 number one albums without ever releasing a single (at least for the duration of their career). to not have to rely on press coverage or singles to acheive success to the extent they had will never be matched.

Just for the record, the most successful period for zeppelin was the early 70s. by the mid-late late 70s they were out of fashion and seen as a dinosaur as punk swept in.

ALSO, Jack White is better then Clapton!

I'll agree with that.
Jack White is tenfold greater than Clapton in his ability to entertain with the guitar. His riffs are catchy. Clapton's are boring.

Well, in sheer skill with the instrument, Jack White doesn't stand a chance. As for entertainment, well, its all opinion, but everything I've heard from The White Stripes has been boring as ****.

Listen to Wheels Of Fire and Disraeli Gears and tell me that.

Boring is completely subjective, it has nothing to do with being better or not, lets say i find a lot of Joe Satriani's solos to be boring, and that i enjoy Kurt Cobains playing a good deal, by your logic..................

i've only fallen asleep to two albums in my time, literally anyways...one by one - foo fighters and a white stripes album. they're as boring as they come. and clapton and jack white pail in comparison, clapton is a dominant guitarist in every way possible.
