Zep put out two great studio albums, both dominated by Jon Bonham...#1 and Physical Graffitti. The rest of their albums span from mediocre to lousy.

I saw them twice live.

The sucked both times, and I mean sucked.

Saw both Sabbath and Floyd live twice too. Both times they both burned the house down, leaving all who attended simply stunned with wonderment.

My sole live experience with Zeppelin was Live Aid 1985, which I know wasn't Zeppelin but WOW was that awful.

I saw Sabbath also at Live Aid (they were on earlier vs Zeppelin in Philadelphia) and on the 13 tour and they were pretty solid. I wasn't stunned by Sabbath but they held their own (the Scorpions were better when I saw them a few years earlier, as was Judas Priest last year).

The closest I got to seeing Floyd was Roger Waters' Wall Tour, which was the best multimedia extravaganza I ever saw...of course with his mask off and he's gone full anti-Semite I am boycotting him. I'd love to see David Gilmour.

Saw Black Sabbath at the Spectrum in Philly in 1973. I believe Ozzy was trashed because the really sucked. Ozzy had a electric keyboard next to his mic and he demonstrated that he is a not a keyboard player.
