I was thinking that this poll had been done before, but after doing a bit of browsing all I could find was Sabbath vs Purple; Sabbath Vs Zeppelin; and Purple Vs Zeppelin. And then lo and behold, I found this thread which is actually a few months old, but asks about all 3 bands. You might want to check this out. And FYI, these are all posted in the Proto-prog and prog-related section, since all 3 bands are in those categories.

I rather admire the three of them very much. But like I said in other threads that what I love of Purple is that they had varied line ups and all of them being very succesful, and the other thing is Jon Lord. (but this is not like Uriah Heep's line ups, Purple's line ups each had different influences. ie: Evan/Simper psych. Coverdale/Hughes funk soul. Morse modern rock.) Okay Sabbath had different line ups but each one is aheading more to metal. I love Ozzy's era but then with the exception of Heaven and Hell the rest is junk for me. And Led Zep okay they're great I have all their discography but they never impressed me, that's not meaning they're not good or that I don't like them, I love em in fact but doesn't reach the feeling that I have with Purple.

A draw between Sabbath and Purple.
I don't think Zeppelin's heavy stuff is cool enough usually and Plants voice is a bit ugly at times

C'mon you guys, Purple over Zep? Picture Highway Star, then picture Kashmir. Exactly.

Well said, Scott! Poll should be moved to the PP/PR Lounge.
Ah, BTW, Deep Purple for me , though I love Zep and the Sabs as well. Three of my all-time fav bands indeed.

Moved.
Deeply Purple for me too. I love heavy rock but never managed to get all three of these together - I don't care that much for Zep and BS don't do anything for me beyond Master of Reality.

I've always thought of these as part of a foursome. The other is Uriah Heep.
If they were in this poll i would have voted for them.

I have huge admiration for Sabbath, but Zep's eccentricities set them apart

I'll say Led Zeppelin for now, but I can see myself preferring Deep Purple once I have more of their albums.
