Without a doubt, Zeppelin were the greatest band of all time. Their legacy has stood the test of time . No other band would have more than eleven million people trying to get tickets to a concert ( apart from perhaps the beatles and that isn't likely without serious advances in cloning techniques!). Saw Robert Plant in Bristol a couple of years ago and people had flown half way round the world just to see him !! Zeppelin are a definate magnet. United they tower above all, divided they stand tall
