    sure, there must be people. but...
    (1) i am definitely not one of them- led zep are the masters of rock n roll!
    (2) those who dont have no idea what good music is, and need a wake up call
    (3) there are probably very few of that weird kind
  • I don't dislike them, but they probably don't crack my top 50 bands. If I even listen to that many. :p
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    I don't trust anyone who says they don't like Zeppelin or the Beatles.

    Me for one. I used to, now I get nothing out of them. Just not my thing anymore. Plant always kind of annoyed me too (sorry eMMi).


    :eek: Jamie...NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

    Oh my, I can't believe that man could annoy anyone, he's the most amazing frontman ever to grace a rock an roll band, and even now, after all the success with Zepp he continues to push himself for the sake of what he loves doing, rather than monetary gain...he's a gentleman and a scholar jamie...how could you...how could you ???????:(

    Greatest fucking band ever.
    I pledge to you a government that will not only work well, but wisely, its ability to act tempered by prudence, and its willingness to do good, balanced by the knowledge that government is never more dangerous than when our desire to have it help us blinds us to its great power to harm us.

    I can quite happily listen to Led Zep III, and forgive them for all the shite they did.

    even stairway to heaven?

    admittedly i could quite happily listen to the first 3 albums for the rest of my life. :)

    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me

    I've got nothing against anyone who likes Led Zep, as I've told you, I used to like them, I just get no enjoyment out of them anymore, plus Plant's vocal adlibs and stage persona always got on my nerves :) He's definitely less annoying these days, much more composed and graceful, and I have nothing against the man, it's just not for me.

    I just don't get people that say they hate LZ. It is weird.
    They rock the pants off most of the crap out today.
    And JB was the best drummer ever. :o

    I was driving my van this afternoon, listening to boring old mainstream radio, when out of the blue they played Zepp...Rock and roll. What a feeling, I mean the volume went up, the steering wheel took a real pounding during Bonzo's opening...who couldn't like that????????

    amen on all that! and i understand, everybody's different, just like there are people who prefer the who to LZ. i'm the opposite myself. to me led zep is the epitome of rock and roll. and sure people say they ripped all the blues masters off. but they made their own magic.

    i guess not trusting someone who doesn't like LZ might be a wee bit strong.

    but it still makes me *highly* suspicious lol

    I've heard people say they suck!! That blows my mind!!! I mean it's one thing to not like something, that's fine. But at least have some appreciation for what they did. Those first 4 albums are absolute genius in every aspect; production, recording, arrangement, and of course the music itself.

  • Never really had an attachment, I had much more of an attachment to Sabbath at one point. I'm not going to say some clown thing like "I don't respect their talent" or, "THEY SUCK!", but it just wasn't there.

    I will say, though, I find myself playing more and more Zep as I go along, so who knows... I've started running out of stuff to learn and been moving on to new things.
  • Anyone with an ear for good rock music should like LedZep. There is nothing not to like. The rock persona along with the often mythical lyrics, combined with the fact that they had the greatest drummer of all time and one of the top 4 or 5 guitarists of all time. Its rock at its best, and very few before or after have been able to come anywhere near the talent of Led Zeppelin. I know music is subjective and each person has their own taste so i can understand why people dont like them, but you have to respect them.
