Beatles vs. Led Zeppelin

[Oski]

The Beatles were not the same once Clarence left the band.

Beatles with Clarence were the best band in history;

Without Clarence, the Beatles were the second best band in history.

This is not even close. Bonzo.

And what did I say different?

But too many people dismiss Starr's drumming.

Listen to "When the Levee Breaks".

A long time ago, I taped the old blues version with Memphis Minnie first and right as the last whining guitar chord is struck, I edited in the Zep number with Bonham's thunder intro. DJ was floored.

Eh, I thought you were saying Ringo was better, my bad.

BTW, anyone who says that Page is one of the greatest guitarists of all time either--1. can't play guitar, or 2. sucks at guitar.

100 best

the list is obviously flawed (i love nirvana, but kurt at 12??) but saying that Page isn't ONE of the best is flat out idiocy. He's not the best, he played sloppy at times, but give the guy the credit he's due.

So, which one are you--a non guitarist, or a bad guitarist?

There's a reason Led Zeppelin is the best hard rock band ever. That reason is Jimmy Page. The fact that he doesn't play like Steve Vai is irrelevant; the sound is better, the riffs are better.

He's also cooler.
