Black Sabbath: I had (and have) Black Sabbath, Paranoid, Master of Reality, Vol IV, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, and Sabotage, so first half of the 70s. Got tired of them after that, but still enjoy listening to the first 5 of these.
Led Zeppelin: I had (and have) I, II, III, IV, Houses of the Holy, Physical Graffiti, so again, first half of the 70s. Heard Presence, but didn't like it so much, so never bought it. Still love hearing these first 6 albums.
Wishbone Ash: I had Argus and There's the Rub. Liked but never loved. Still enjoy listening to Argus from time to time. Warrior is catchy.

I did have all the Led Zep albums apart from Coda, which was more of a left-overs thing anyway, 2 by Wishbone Ash, and 2 by Black Sabbath, got these all in the eighties, I was only a wee pup in the 70's you know!

All 1970's Sabbath and Zeppelin, no Wishbone. Come to think of it, I don't know that I've ever heard them - I've certainly heard of them, but no songs come to mind.
Everyone knows rock attained perfection in 1974, it's a scientific fact.

I have all of Led Zeppelin, and most of Black Sabbath. I am missing 3 or 4 Black Sabbath albums. I only have a greatest hits album from Wishbone Ash however.

I've always had the Led Zep albums but I never had any Sabbath albums until a few years ago (frankly, they were always derided in the "serious" music press, along with Uriah Heep) and I only had the first Wishbone Ash album and Argus (now that is an essential album for a prog collector).

^ Purple faired better in my collection in the early 70s as I bought everything upto and including Come Taste The Band, but for me they were more "progressive" and fitted better with the kind of music I liked at the time, especially on their first three Rod Evans albums.

Re-read it: it's written "in the early 70's". So, I guess it makes the years 1970 to 1972 (maybe 1973?) LZ released 4 or 5 LPs; same account for Black Sabbath and Wishbone Ash; 8 or 9 for Deep Purple, if we keep taking about 70's hard-rock bands.
If we even take more radical measures and say the early 70's are 70-71, we have 4 albums for LZ, 3 for BS, 2 for Wishbone Ash (but 6 for Deep Purple!). It's not gigantic.
