I'm really comfy in my Zep fan worship. Been that way since 1970. Nothing is gonna take it away.

Linda and I saw this in a packed movie theater with a bunch of Zep fans. Lots of fathers and sons for sure.

So many goose bump moments.

It's raising up one band, while covering your ears and shouting "Na na na!" to every other band that contributed to the scene.
Whilst I agree with a lot of the points you've raised about Led Zep, you need to remember that Chula was around in the 1970s when Led Zep were doing all of the above, so he would've lived and breathed with the band as it were and views the band with a certain amount of nostalgia, and they were the highest profile band to do all the aspects that you're picking him up on.

I've really been warming up to Zeppelin this year. I've always liked them to some degree, but they never really sunk into my taste until lately, primarily due to hearing Physical Graffiti front to back for the first time.

I wore em out in my late teens, but I can still stomach some of it these days. Houses Of The Holy is still my favorite full album from them.
