I agree with you 100%! Jimmy Page is a very talented guitarist, to say the least, and Rob can hit those high notes like no other! You can truly feel the emotion behind their music when you listen to it... you don't have to listen hard! =)
Stairway to Heaven has also held a special place in my heart since I was a young'un. So of COURSE they're getting my vote this round!
That's my vote from page 70... I love both bands but Led Zeppelin is in this case the slightly superior band!
Sorry ZZ Top, I love your music and your beards but Zeppelin is an unstoppable force of legendary rock power!

Led Zeppelin can appeal to a wider genre, whilst ZZTop might be held back slightly by their mostly Southern sound. So, Led Zeppelin.

ZZ Top is one of a kind. Led Zeppelin is too, but they aren't as distinctive to me as ZZ Top
I'm an English gentleman. ZZ Top's southern sound is more exotic to me than that of Zeppelin.

Led Zeppelin not as distinctive as ZZ Top? You kidding?
Anyway, I vote Led Zeppelin. Clearly. I voted for ZZ Top twice and they deserve a second place, but LZ is clearly a greater band. They have more talent, play more complex and nice sounding melodies, beautiful songs as well as rocking ones. They had more influence on the whole musical scene, are world known and landed a few big hits. I think they deserve first place.

Led Zeppelin by a landslide.
Led Zeppelin is my favorite band of all time. Jimmy Paige is a great guitarist, as John Bonham is a great drummer.
Led Zeppelin has greater songs than ZZ Top as well. Like Stairway To Heaven, The Rain Song, Black Dog, and many more.
Led Zeppelin takes CRBWC winner easily.

Oh geez, ZZ Top by far and away for me.
Led Zeppelin has a few great songs that I love listening to, but they have a lot of stuff that is just dull and boring and I just don't get (primarily because I don't want to waste my time "getting" it).. ZZ Top though I could listen to them anytime, even the songs I don't really care for.
My vote - ZZ Top

I just voted and apparently it didn't post, or this will be another double post..
My vote - ZZ Top
Truncated reasoning due to not wanting to lay it all out (ZZ Top good all the time, Led Zeppelin good some of the time)
My vote - ZZ Top

I just seem to have that kind of timing...
Where do I begin?
I've read everyone's response yet I wasn't keeping a count so I don't know if I'm the defining vote?
It really doesn't matter because, "The song remains the same" off of the Houses of the Holy album is one of my very favorite songs. It was when I first heard it and now that my sound equipment is better it just makes it sound that much better. So, my vote has to go to Led Zeppelin.
Hahiha says it best that ZZTop does deserve second place. I love their style of bluzy/jazzy southern rock that is best played loudly and outside, such as at a Nascar race! I always take at least one of their cd's with me if I'm driving for longer than two hours because I know they'll keep me awake and smiling!

Led Zeppelin has a more powerful sound. ZZ Top is great but Led Zeppelin has some of the greatest guitar riffs around.
ZZ Top does deserve second place, though.

It's not that big of a surprise yet, but still I knew somewhere...
As for the score count... It's close, but still... no sigar!! =)
_____________________________________________
Score count for the "CRBWC Grand Final" :
9 - LED ZEPPELIN
5 - ZZ TOP
_____________________________________________
It seems as if the battle is close to being decided, but there's still a slim chance for ZZ Top to make it...
Keep them votes coming people!!! VOTE!!!
