Comment:

Let's face it: there was only one Led Zeppelin. But a whole lot of your favorite artists scaled rock's same mountaintops. And while we're on the subject of mountains . . . Mountain's "Mississippi Queen" might've reached only #21 on the Pop charts, but on FM radio it couldn't possibly have been any bigger. Neither could frontman Leslie West, who weighed in on a truck scale, plays guitar like a thunderclap at a tractor pull, and unleashes his grizzly-bear vocals on the song, taking no prisoners. Meanwhile, on [i]Machine Head[/i]'s "Highway Star," Deep Purple Mk. 2 serve up a slab of baked asphalt as heavy as anything Zeppelin ever kicked out; singer Ian Gillan screams into overdrive and keeps Purple's tach pinned in the red for six solid minutes as guitarist Ritchie Blackmore simply [i]shreds[/i] in support. And, finally, Jeff Beck gets a little help from his friends (a pre-Faces Rod Stewart and Ron Wood) in setting a torch under Willie Dixon's "I Ain't Superstitious," wah-wahing his way into the history books on [i]Truth[/i], the album widely credited with starting heavy metal. From Fleetwood Mac to Jethro Tull, from Cream to Queen, we've got every classic rocker that shared the airwaves — and airspace — with Led Zeppelin.
