LZ were clearly the more talented musicians and had, marginally, the better singer (yeah, let me just say it that Plant's not all that he's cracked up to be, influential but in his own right a rather average singer) but Sabbath got more out of their talent.  The rambling, amorphous nature of many of LZ's songs is a sore point with me, I like rock music to be thoroughly composed and even where it has improvisations, to accommodate those appropriately rather than making the whole song a quasi-jam.  Ultimately, I feel LZ's enormous talent by itself does not make for as compelling a reason to listen to their work as Sabbath. So, I vote for Sabbath.

Led Zep for me, I saw them in 1979 just before the death of John Bonham at Knebworth. The guitarist in our band is also in a Black Sabbath tribute band so don't you guys tell him I voted for Zep! LOL

Led Zeppelin for me, they've never released a weak album, Black Sabbath did.

Black Sabbath all the way, and I won't even play the cards that some Beatles fans use by saying that Sabbath invented hard rock and all the sub-genres that followed. 

P.S. Zeppelin never released a bad album, are you sure of that?Geek

what makes you think they would've made bad albums? As solo artists, all three remaining members did good albums and the collaboration Page & Plant was great. Based on this idea, i think they would not have messed things up, had Bonzo not died and had they made music together. My opinion.

Some solo albums by Robert Plant from 80´s are certainly weak - e.g. Shaken´n´ Stirred. Or, for sure, In Through The Out Door is controversial.
 
Goodness knows, how would be look their collective production in 80´s...Confused
