led zeppelin

Led Zeppelin was by far one of the most influential classic rock bands. Although I wouyld have to argue myself that Jimi Hendrix was the most influential artist to hit music due to his new wave style of blues and rock and his introduction to pedal/stomp box effects along with his introduction to stereo listening. But although Hendrix was the most influential guitarist of all time, Jimmy Paige cannot be overlooked. His guitar rifts made Led Zeppelin what they are. As most people know, Stairway to Heaven is Zeppelins most popular song. (Although their most succesful song was Whole Lotta Love). But the solo in Stairway to Heaven is largely considered to be one of the best guitar solos of all time. With the Comobonation of Paige's guitar skils and Plants song writing, not excluding the numerous impressive drum beats, it is difficult to argue that Zeppelin was not a huge influence on modern music. For these reasons I would have to exclaim that Zeppelin is amoug my favorite classic rock bands.
