Best band? Hardly. The Who,in their early days,were better. Ditto the Stones. The Beatles in their middle years (Rubber Soul and Revolver) were also better.

Zappa was a genius, he’s on a whole ‘nother level (Hendrix too imho).
But, for HARD rock, I go with Zepplin, always thought so.

Not my favorite, although Led Zeppelin 4 was very good (even though I burnt out on “Stairway to Heaven” a long time ago. I always thought Jimmy Page was overrated as a guitarist, but I’ve never played so I’m sure not the best judge.
“Physical Graffiti” was waaayy overrated. I think every time I hear a song from the bloated album nowadays I change the station, usually to NPR for classical music.

Clearly Clutch is the greatest band in history.

I don’t know about the best, but if I could go back in time to see any band play my choice would be Zeppelin.

If it’s going to be best band then you would have to include Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, The Dorsey Brothers and countless others as part of the competition. Led Zeppelin might be up there but definitely not number 1.

I like Zeppelin, but they were sloppy even on record, they poached a lot without giving credit (not a unique sin in rock), and their output is some of the most dated of the ‘70s. I was listening to Van Halen I today and it still sounds fresh and vital. Presence, say, is very ponderous now.
And, no, I’m not saying VH is the better band.

Forgot to mention “Roger The Engineer”.At that moment,at least,even the Yardbird were better than Zepplin ever was.
To: DoodleBob
There were a number of bands that for that brief shining moment were the best.
The Doors were. The collaboration that Page mentions, they had it. Chicago for its first three LPs was. For a brief period, I would say the same for the Faces.
And so on. Music is such an abstract of individual’s taste. And it is a snapshot in time. A snapshot that we think at the time will just go on and on.

Depends on what you mean by the best. I like the Beatles the best by a long shot. But no other white band could steel from black blues men and make it better, including the Stones, than LZ.

IMO the big diverge would be the bands that incorporated Southern music into their blues: Stones and Allman for example.
Was very impressed at the Led concert I went to, but adding Southern rifs makes for a larger musical and emotional regime.
And for blues, Clapton beat everyone anyway.
Negro musicians did not do a good job of adapting to electric, in general.
