I mock everyone - hopefully good-naturedly - here and am allowed to be mocked by everyone, whether good-naturedly or not. Mercy neither expected nor granted. Quite possibly, I enjoy slipping a few Led Zep titles in and even more so that you recognize them.
Since the dawn of man threads have been going off subject here
("where off topic discussion is welcome") and very often return miraculously to the orginal subject just like verbal discussion of a family at dinner wanders off and meets again (or two different things are being discussed by different participants at the same time over the table, happens all the time in my family).
The AC/DC thread turned to Led Zep for a short while, because Zep was given as an example of how a band should end gracefully and people in the AC/DC thread worried whether the band might decide to continue in the absence of Malcolm as it obviously now has. Zep discussion did not center on how good or bad the band was, but on Plant's refusal to reform it except for impromptu events (and whether you thought that artistically credible or not). Meanwhile that same thread discusses bagpipes, but who knows it might turn to AC/DC yet again. Or a new bagpipe thread turns to AC/DC or - Thor forbid! - Led Zeppelin, stranger things have happened at the LBO or the land of ice and snow.
Then you crash the party having read and disliked the mentioning of Led Zeppelin (without most likely having read how and why Led Zep got in there, because you didn't care) and leave the crowning remark that they are a shitty band that doesn't know how to rock'n'roll. A statement of utmost pertinence to the original subject, namely
bagpipes,
Led Zeppelin, no ... what was it again ... AC/DC! Unless, of course, AC/DC knows how to rock'n'roll and Led Zep doesn't and that was the point you wanted to make just like Chuck Berry (or was it Angus Young?) elevated John Mayall's Bluesbreakers' Beano album and Eric Clapton somehow sucked all along. Make of that what you will.

Ramble on.
You've pushed me into defending
Led Zep the Un-Deep Purple, of all bands. I'll never forgive you that, Dave!
