Just the mainstream hard rock monster on this poll. For me was Deep Purple by millions of miles

I think both are excellent bands, but Led Zeppelin gets my vote. I know you've all heard this a million times, but Led Zeppelin IV is just such an amazing album. I'm being honest when I say "Stairway to Heaven" is the weakest track on there, and even that's great. "When the Levee Breaks" may just be the best Hard Rock song ever.

Look out!!! They're under the bed.  And I'm pretty sure there's an evil monkey in the closet.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I guess Zep will win most polls (in this forum) where they aren't put against a prog band. Perhaps if they were matched against The Beatles?

Deep Purple.
Not a huge fan of either, though I do like DP. LZ is tolerable, but I hardly ever listen to them.

Deep Purple is not a consistent band, changed so many crew, many weak albums. So i voted for Zeppelin

Really don't mind if you sit this one out.

The Beatles are horrible....not even tolerable for me. Sgt Pepper is it, barely.....After that its all whiny Paul & John lyrics boyfriend/girlfriend krapp.
BTW....Led Zepp always wins.

I've seen both and both put on a great show in their prime but I gotta go with Robert,Jimmy,Bonzo and John on this.

I love both of them about equally but Deep Purple gets my vote. Led Zeppelin is more bluesy but Deep Purple has great ballads and is far more prog-ish.
Ritchie FTW! (Even though he's a pain to work with)

Usually, I would have said Deep Purple, but when they sank to a low, it was REALLY low.
LZ had a wonderfully consistant high output quality without any duds but never reached the height of DP at their best.
Sorry, I can't vote on this.

They may have become classic rock now......but they definitely were hard or heavy rock.
