in my honest opinion Led Zeppelin are a full-fledged progressive rock band, as are for example Deep Purple or Wishbone Ash too. but I know that many won't agree with me. however, in the 70s these distinctions were never made anyway. Led Zeppelin were one of the bands which tried something different. and that's what counted

No, many won't agree with you Jean, but I most certainly do.

I agree. Zeppelin were progressive in many ways... progressive just wasn't really a term yet. Of course there are distinctions but they we're definitely forward thinking.

I think you'd have to listen to "When the Levee Breaks". It is by my definition, a progressive blues song. Also many songs off Physical Grafitti, a particular favorite being "Ten Years Gone"
