 Topic: Zeppelin VS Sabbath VS Deep Purple?
Posted: November 21 2016 at 14:32 |
Between these 3 big bands of heavy rock what is your favorite? If you like all 3 bands you can rank them in order of preference.
I will go: 1)Deep Purple, 2)Zep, 3)Sabbath.

The three pillars of hard rock and heavy metal. Led Zep, just because.

Sabbath. A personal favorite. I never get tired of hearing them. Except for the song "changes" if I never hear that again...

Love all three bands but I'll go
Sabbath > Zep > Purple
Sabbath hold a special place in my heart, the monolithic sludge spoke to me on a very personal basis.

You are probably right on all counts, I just prefer the tunes Sabbath put out.

I very rarely listen to the other two anymore and still listen to Zeppelin quite regularly.

Same here, although I adore LZ and DP I don't care who's got the better drummer or bass player, Sabbath just connects with me on a more personal level.

Led Zeppelin > Black Sabbath > Deep Purple
Though all three have their merits. Zepp for the all-over-the-place experimentation, Sabbath for the sludge and Purple for the classical stuff.

Have I voted in this some time ago ??
Easily Sabbath - the only band from the 3 that I've hung on to all the vinyls.......
Then Purple, then some select Zepp. Fallen 'out of love' with DP and LZ really.

For creativity, sophistry, and... oh this counts, baby... live performances that made Floyd and Hendrix concerts look like real estate seminars, the big fat Z . Word.

Zeppelin by a wide margin.....I gave up on Sabbath after I turned 20, after their 4 th album....and I never understood all the love for Purple....a hard rock band with a good guitarist who wrote mediocre songs.
Stat wise.....here at PA. Sabbath...5- 4 star albums (20 albums) Zep....3- 4 star albums (only 8 albums) Purple....2- 4 star albums (19 albums)

Oh yes. What a downer getting that after (for me) the most epic and sublime pieces Sabbath wrote and wrought. Wheels Of Confusion. Ozzy does Elton John... What's worse, his or his daughter's version?
