As with the Greatest American Bands, this one ends with my particular favourite. But the other 19 were not placed in that order reference preference. I think they, and many more that I could not include, are great bands. Just saying that I have always been a great fan of rock music and my first introduction to rock was with British bands, especially The Beatles and The Rolling Stones (who I did not place in the count but did make a special post on them here). Then came the American groups as well as some Spanish groups and soloists that I really think adapted well to rock and pop during the late 60’s and 70’s.
In any event, Led Zeppelin, wow! I remember the first time I heard them I was at school and one of the teachers brought their first album (Led Zeppelin). I heard it during lunch break and became an instant fan. From there to following the group, collecting every one of their albums and learning to play like Jimmy Page, my favourite guitarist, was normal for me.
All I can say is that from the early 70’s, Jimmy Page (guitar); Robert Plant (vocals); John Paul Jones (bass/keyboards) and John ‘Bonzo’ Bonham (drums), filled every hall they ever played in. Lamentably, in 1980, with the death of John Bonham (from misadventure), the band broke up forever…
I hope you enjoy this song, it is one of my faves (among many) from Led Zeppelin…
CHEERS
THE BEST choice, and an excellent song selection! Led Zeppelin is amazing, and I’ve no doubt their work will endure long after I’m gone.

It’s a funny thing. But only now, at my «advanced» age, am I learning about some of the bands I followed in my youth. :)))

I would easily place them among the greatest rock bands of all time due to their ability to blend blues, folk, and heavy rock, along with their exceptional instrumental skills and powerful vocals, which created a unique and captivating sound. Thanks for sharing, and have a good day 🙂 Aiva xx

You said it perfectly Aiva! Yes, they are the number ONE for me (of course without counting The Beatles and The Rolling Stones). All the best!
