They had some very well written songs and they turned those songs into great improvised jams for their live shows.

not really memorable

Duane could really take them places, though, unreined and let loose

Not really memorable? Please. "sweet Melissa" is a classic. It's sad if a song like "whole lotta love" is memorable and "sweet melissa" isn't.

boring and middle of the road

Whole Lotta Love makes me wanna put out a whole lotta love from my love pump

That's just sad

No love for Ramblin Man?

It's a good song for, just not one of my favorites.

Personal preference: Page -- but it's close, I'd still put Iommi second (though IMO he's a much better player).

I guess I would say that Page is the overall better player when you consider his acoustic playing, but Iommi didn't play much acoustic so it's kind of hard to compare there. I've asked my friends about this and they all easily choose Page. I don't think they're giving Iommi a chance. I pick Iommi.

What do ya'll think?

Jimmy Page.

Iommi is great, but Jimmy Page is much better guitarist, you don't have to play fast to be a better player, jimmy know exacly what to do...
he's very creative, when he plays the guitar he knows how to thrill the listener

No idea what you mean-you prefer Page, though Iommi is a much better player?
