Led Zeppelin

The greatest rock band of all time. Reasons? I couldn't even tell you... When I first heard them, I had the absolute certainty that I was dealing with some fucking geniuses. I'm not talking about innovation; I'm talking about ability, that of the airship soaring high in the sky of rock without ever falling, reaching incredibly high peaks. The innovation of Led Zeppelin lies in having superbly and uniquely fused together their major influences, such as blues, folk, and rock 'n roll. When I think of the quintessential band, I think of the airship.
