I fucking love both of them, however The Who are a completely different beast than Zeppelin. Both are stellar in their own way. If you wanna hear The Who's contribution to early metal "Live at Leeds" is a must and one of, if not the best live albums ever. IMO. Also "Tommy," "Who's Next" and "Quadrophenia" are the basic Who staples you should check out if you aren't familiar with them. The Who's rhythm section consisting of Entwistle and Moon are epic enough in and of themselves.

Interesting topic.

To the gentleman several posts up that stated that "The Who were more simplistic"....GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS!!!!

I love both bands equally. The above poster is correct...Live At Leeds...the deluxe edition is the best live album ever.

If you want to hear another stellar recording listen to "A quick one" on the Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. AMAZING!!!!

Page is a fantastic guitar player....alot of his music was interpretations of blues standards. Page had "feel" like no one else. I could listen to him play forever.
However.....In my book there are only 3 people in Rock/Pop music that had the whole package..ie...complete music composition and lyrical ability...they are:

Stevie Wonder
Brian Wilson
and...................Pete Townshend
