I can agree with that. Whether or not I like his voice, it was distinctive. And he had the sex appeal and strutted his stuff like he was mick jagger, which made him a good front man.

I'm curious to know who you think was a better singer.

From his generation and of a similiar kind of music I'd say the following in no set order and I'm talking just voice here and nothing else- Ian Gillan, Steven Tyler, Phil Mogg, Dio, Paul Rodgers, Klaus Meine, Rob Halford and Dave Byron.

Not really. I think the best thing about the band would the other three members. But they wouldn't be zeppelin without so I guess that makes him great by association.

I think that bluesy wail is another thing that makes him an extraordinary singer,
I can't imagine somebody who can sing led Zeppelin stuff better than him
But you know that's what so beautiful about music, there's no such thing as better music, or a better singer... If you love something its enough,

Looks like the estate of Randy California will finally be joining the list of songwriters who've sued Led Zeppelin for copyright infringement...

I love led too. I am pretty excited because I even started a collection with their memorabilia.
Do you have something from led?

Since every band here is suppose to have only one thread I would like some opinions on these " Remastered " albums..... I was listening to their second album and it has some interesting parts that I had not heard before.

I always hear people complain about In through the out door but I love that album and Presence is fantastic. Achilles is worth the price of admission alone. There is a large segment of people that think Presence is the best album they ever did.

That's probably because it is their best album. Fact.
