Alright. Which is the better band? Both were from England. Both were HUGE during the 70s. Both's drummers died from booze/drugs. Both were known for there backstage shinanigans. Both are considered 2 of the greatest rock bands of all time. So which is better?

My vote is for Zeppelin. I never much got into The Who.

I love the Who. They have released some truely great songs. My Generation, Won't Get Fooled Again, The Seeker, Baba O'Reilly, Pinball Wizard, Magic Bus. All classics.
But I'm a die hard Zep fan, so they narrowly get my vote.

the Who. Led Zeppelin is great and are great musicians, but the Who I like more. I love We Won't Get Fooled Again and Teenage Wasteland.

The Who, for Baba O'Reilly, Behind Blue Eyes and Won't Get Fooled Again, though... Zeppelin is quite awesome and one of my fave bands, as well.

I love Led Zeppelin there best loud rock and roll songs are Whole Lotta Love, Immigrant song, heartbreaker, rock and roll, black dog, and trampled underfoot. There best slow songs are going to california, thats the way, tangerine, over the hills and far away, and stairway to heaven, and so many more.

Every member of Zeppelin is (was) insanely talented.
And Jimmy Page is a GUITAR GOD.
