Led Zeppelin

The best bands that ever existed. When I was a kid, I never really liked music, until I laid hands on my flute and soon after a keyboard. It was like a new door had opened for me. Slowly my interests grew to harmonica and guitar. I really got liking to rock and metal due to its heavy guitar usage. It simply blew my mind. It wasn't until late in my rock music appreciation that I got to hear Led Zeppelin and that totally changed the way I felt music. They are simply awesome and genuises in music composition. Each and every song of theirs have a very deep structure within. Drums, bass, lead and the song. I don't need to tell you the history behind the group but if you are interested you can go to Led Zeppelin Home Page

I think each and every member of led zep had a very interesting contribution. Listening to rock nowadays you see generic riffs, rhythms, beats and melody. If you listen to led zep you know why I say so. From the mind blowing drum beats, to the deep stomach pounding bass, to the extraordinary harmonic lead to the very interesting vocal, you will find every bit of led zep unique. Their most famous "Stairway to heaven" is still the heavily learnt song by all guitar enthusiasts, but true led zep fans think every song needs to be learnt!! :).

Led Zep continue to inspire me in my long journey to learn guitars and someday do justice to their songs with my playing. I remember the good old days during my college when I listened to them all the time on my mp3 player, traveling in the bus, doing my projects on the computer. If I am tired or stresses that is all I need to listen to, to relax me. I just wished that their run wasn't so short lived. To me, and for every music and led zep fan, they will continue to live forever.

Led Zep Rocks!!!
