I don't have any problems with the band itself (other than all their plagiarisms). It's the hardcore fans that piss me off. They're so arrogant it's unbearable.

It is to my ears. It's like saying Sgt. Pepper wasn't a singular work of art because of Pet Sounds. Led Zeppelin kicked it all up a notch in the ears of the general public.
The production is quite a step above that found on Truth.
Truth and LZI being similar is understandible given that Beck and Page were friends and on a partly shared similar musical path since they met.
There's similarities between their playing and sounds throughout the sixties. They both found the sound of their post Yarbirds bands during Beck's Bolero session. Dynamic fuzzy blues with a heavy rhythm section.
Truth and LZI are both ace!
Mmmm, I think one of Jeff's greatest efforts is that he kept on developing in the 7-tees and onwards : Blow by Blow, Wired, and later Beck's Guitar shop. He didn't doze off, like most of the 6-tees heroes.

The first Led Zeppelin album, regardless of plagiarism, is a singular work of art that shot the blues into outer space. Led Zeppelin seemed built for the short haul, and the Stones for 50 and Counting.

What does Pet Sounds have to do with Sgt Pepper, except for Wilson admitting he was inspired by Rubber Soul when making it??

I've listened to it. It's crap. I don't get it. I don't get how it inspired The Beatles and I don't get how it's such a highy revered LP.

Well, it did inspire the Beatles, that's a fact. So, should we consider your ears suspect from hear on out? Give us some other obvious classic albums you hate that everybody loves. Dark Side of the Moon the product of hacks?

I think it's really great that John Paul Jones has an arena named after him in Virginia. Is there a Bill Wyman arena anywhere in the US?

I don't care what the haters or the homers say - Led Zeppelin was one incredibly bad-ass band that did ntohing but rock the floor every single night they played and with every single rekkid they released. Some were better than others, sure, but overall, their proficiency was incredible.
I agree with GasLight - no comparison b/t Zep and the Stones, and who cares? They are both amazing!
