Sorry, man.  Just thought....well, I've always though Heep, Zep and the lot were 2nd generation hard rock....the pioneers were the Who, Kinks, Yardbirds, et al.
 
The use of the word "pioneers" confused me, that's all.

Overall, I'll doubtlessly go with Led Zeppelin, although if I were asked to rank them by the album(s) I like most, it's probably be Deep Purple.

So, based on individual albums, it would look like this:

1) Deep Purple - Deep Purple In Rock
2) Led Zeppelin - LZ II
3) Uriah Heep - Look At Yourself
4) Black Sabbath - Hell, I don't know, one of the first few, I suppose


@ Hawkwise: Nice sig! Could you slow the cycle down a bit? I's like to get a longer look at the individual covers..

^ Zeppelin's live shows, as I understand it, did tend to be pretty miserable. But as far as masterpiece albums, Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti come pretty close

Sabbath for those first 4 albums  Brilliant Thumbs Up so ..

Sabbath

Purple 

Heep

Zepp   


Never really understood the fuss about Zeppelin good as they where did they really ever make a master piece of an album ?  Zepp 4 maybe, 3 was good to but thats it for me never really been a fan.

Sabbath and Purple just made better albums in my humble Opinion.  

and Zepplin happen to be one worse gigs i ever went to,  Knebworth was terrible.
