Most of the Zep releases can be played in their entirety. Beginning to end. No need to skip many tunes.

Stones had a lot of hits. Also had a ton of skippable tracks.

Zeppelin by a mile.

I'll say Stones because I've purchased something from them and not Zep.

I've owned all the Zep studio releases in one format or another. Some on multiple.

I inherited Sticky Fingers when my father in law died this Summer. Haven't played it. Have heard all their stuff from friends. Definition of a "greatest hits band."

Zeppelin is 1000x better. Stones were all marketing and hype.

I've never been a huge fan of either one, but I respect their influence on Rock. Maybe I've been soured from hearing Blag Dog being played to death on Rock radio. Always found that song grating and annoying.

Except for Exile, the Stones output between those albums was pretty meh.

Sorry about your father in law, but that sentence sounds pretty kinky. :wink:

I know it's subjective, and I like both bands, but the Stones are a band I can listen to over and over. I can't do that with Zep. They had some variation of styles, but the Stones explored MUCH more musical territory.

I reckon all songs are folk songs. I ain't never heard no horses singing any.

Love them both and overall I like the Stones better. But the 70s belonged to Zeppelin. They are the blueprint for a reason.
