The first four Zeppelin albums and Houses of the Holy were all great. (It's strange to be talking about albums isn't it?) But Physical Graffiti started the decline. I suppose it's hard to maintain a high level of creativity and artistry, one only has so much within oneself. I mean, The Stones haven't done anything of note since Some Girls, and that was forty years ago (personally, I think they peaked with Exile on Main Street).

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.

I actually love Presence. They were wounded and not riding high....I think that’s the album where they couldn’t rely on flash and mythology and you got the Real Zeppelin. Eddie Trunk considers Van Halen to be America’s Zeppelin - and he may be right.

most underrated album of the Zeppelin catalog...other bands could only dream of composing a song as mighty as Achilles Last Stand...

The Doors were incredible. I wonder if they'd have been "the best" if Jim Morrison hadn't checked out so young.
I go with the Stones. Jagger has been for over 50 years (founded 1967) the absolute genius in bringing the best music elements together, and of marketing and showmanship. Their music will live for ever.

What I mean is: when you talk about a band as a collaborative musical unit, we were the best. Page is exactly right on this point which is why they couldn't continue after Bonham's death.
The Who should've called it quits when Moon died as well.

If you threw out the really bad tunes from Physical Graffiti like Boogie With Stu and The Rover, you'd have a solid single album.
As for the Stones not doing anything good since 1978, as I mentioned previously, that's not true - they did Bittersweet Symphony.

Exactly what I was thinking. Nothing beats those big bands. Tommy Dorsey and his orchestra. ....

IMHO, no one was better than the Grateful Dead in what they did — improvise a different show every time.
Sure there were mistakes and misses, but some of the hits were absolutely sublime!

I watched “The Kids are Alright” last week. It didn’t diminish by appreciation of The Who’s greatest hits, but it certainly diminished by opinion of the band members as people. Especially Townsend. He was a royal a-hole. And Keith Moon, as amazing as he was as a drummer, was flat-out nuts.
