RD seems "like" a college kid wimp to me, in looks and all.

Peter Townsend vs Jimny Page
John Entwistle vs John Paul Jones
Keith Moon vs John Bonham

I don't really love his vocals from that show either, but Page absolutely owns and friggin' blew me away with his playing.

I still probably prefer Robert Plant slightly, although they're both such classic, excellent frontmen.  Really tough call.

I am hopefully going to see Robert & the Strange Sensation playing at the Live Earth event in 8th of July here in Bucharest, so we can combine our feedback! Smile


 
I didn't vote because pear and oranges don't compare.
 
 
Fred: Actually Plant's voice has never neen better IMHO. The last two Strange Sensation are marvellous. Daltrey's voice seems a bit rusty in the last Who album.
 
However time has not beeb kind physically to the "Golden God" , while Daltrey looks much youger than he is.

let's just stay above the moral melee

I'd love to see what he'd do if you didn't have the comfort of the internet and you said that to his face. You'd be crappin' your own broken teeth for a week.

Plant, but only because he had the better main band, solo career, and voice.
My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want!

OK, I get what you meant. The 'wimp' part really threw me off.

Daltrey. By a long shot. Far less annoying. Not that Plant's particularly annoying, but he did pave the way for high pitched, metal screamers.

The Who on all fronts EXCEPT guitar; as much as I feel Page is overrated, Townshead is easily the weakest link in their musical lineup.

Possibly the hardest PA poll I've seen.



Daltrey.

I love both, but Robert Plant led to Axl Rose, so I'll vote for Daltrey. And for me Zeppelin = page, the Who are a better overall group.
