 Topic: Zeppelin, Purple or Sabbath?
Posted: August 13 2006 at 16:08 |

Im sure this has been done before, but I could not find it...
I voted for Zeppelin by the way...wow, what a shocker!!!
Also, when you say which band you preferspecify why...
I pick Zeppelin cause I find them to be the most balanced of the three, with the most awesome guitarist of thouse three (hope Ghost Ruder does not read this...) and the best singer and drummer...hehehehe
Also I find their albums to be much better, specially the first 6...and Sabbath bores me to death to be completly honest hehehe

Ghost Rider has read it...   I love all three bands, though I must admit that I prefer Sabbath with Dio to Sabbath with Ozzy (due to my weakness for singers who can sing). The three guitarists are among my favourites, though I think Blackmore is the best of the three, at least in a technical sense (and of course he's the god I worship  ... no Petrucci for me, I'm afraid!  ). As to the bands, I'll choose DP, but not by that large a margin... I don't agree about the singer, though. I prefer Gillan to Plant, as good as the latter is.

Does it mean that Ozzy can't sing according to you? I've never heard a worse blasphemy before!

Nothing wrong with them. Something wrong with me, maybe... 
I'm simply not too fond of both of them, and the main reason that I like Deep Purple (at all as well as in the comparison with Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin) is Jon Lord's presence. That's all.
I wouldn't mind if you've got any problem with Lord, though...

I dislike Sabbath more than any hard rock band I can think of whose music I've heard.
I've heard not much DP, but LedZep would probably win anyway.

Zeppelin for beeing able to keep their identity and sound while playing Reggae for crying out loud...and any other genre they mixed themselves with... they bent the genre not themselves...Jones - Page - Plant ...rule! D'yer MAk'er...Immigrant Song...Down by the Seaside...Boogie with Stu...Kashmir...Moby Dick(and the drum solo)... Purple in my humble opinion are a bit easy listening...and the changes in the band I don't think they helped. A bit too simpistic as a band in general. Sabbath on the other hand hold a certain piece of my heart...for no apparent musical reason. P.S. I like Hush more by Kula Shaker. And let me not comment on Paranoid and Highway Star...Ok now you can shoot me...

Am I really the first Heep fan to come accross this and go ... "hmmm, what's wrong with this picture" ... have every album by all four bands ... too tough to chose, except that Heep was the band I listened to the most during the most emotional time of my life ...
Of the three, Zep
