No, really, I think that The Beatles are the greatest band of all time

Led Zeppelin and the Who are my two favorite bands. I mean, almost neck-and-neck with each other, almost. But...I'm gonna have to go with Led Zeppelin, though the Who is a great band.

The great thing about it is, you can enjoy one more than the other, and vice-versa, depending on your musical mood at the moment.

Overall, I like the Who better. But, if I want something more blues tinged, the I'll listen to Zep. I win, either way.

zeppelin would beat them at what? wreckin' hotel rooms?! hardly! the who 'invented' hotel wreckin.' the who went from three minute, top forty jingle pop singers through several decades and ended up on broadway. along the way they began the first throes of punk (if you don't hear punk in "rich man's blues" from 'live at leeds' you don't have ears for punk); along with zeppelin, endured a decade that started with peace and love and ended with disco and stil kept pumping; and influenced at least two generations. my g-g-g-g-generation.

having witnessed these two bands twice each, i must admit to being a fan of both. camped, tripping for zeppelin tickets for the physical graffiti tour even but live? no one.......'no one' beats the who live. and for me, that's how bands ought be judged.

Well I'll take the time and do me a side by side comparrison-
Drums - Moon vs. Bonzo-Both have the drive and talent, but bonzo is just more versitle
w:0 z:1
Vocals - Daltrey vs. Plant- Both amazingly versitale, but also through into the vocals mix is entwhistle and townshend, thinking of that, the who takes it
w:1 z:1
Guitar- Townshend vs. Page- TOwnshend was no great guitarist, page was, done
w:1 z:2
Bass- Entwhistle vs Jones- Another clash of the titans, I think Entwhistle Squeaks by on bass merits,
w:2 z:2
Musicainship- I've got to give this to Zep, pretty much just for john paul jones.
w:2 z:3
Songs-now this one is damned hard,and a matter of opinion. I like the fact that the who's are wide spread in stlye, but I think I just personally prefer the hard driving blues rock of Zep,
w:2 z:4
Live-No deliberation, Who
w:3 z:4

So I think Zeppelin Has it.
