I reckon Ossie Osborn is now looked upon as a comedy actor.. but there was a "music war" giong on in the early 70's... so.. who were you into in the "heavy"wars? Deep Purple..Black Sabbath,Led Zepplin?..here's a few..

Led Zepp

Black Sabbath

I did'nt find any Deep Purple without Blackmore!!!

Comedy actor? He's the Prince of Darkness!!

I have to say Mancie I didn't mind all three, I was never a cult follower of any HM Band but I think my favourite, numbers were Peranoid by Sabbath and Child in Time by Purple

sabbath was me preferance of those 3, purple 2 nd, n summat about led zep i could never take to. not big on HM.

Thats a tough one Mancie, but i think my order would be:
Black Sabbath
Led Zepplin
then
Deep Purple

He may be seen by some as a comedy geezer but the Ozzy one has done some pearls with band and solo.

Not so keen on Page and Plant without the rest of Zepplin though, it seems to lose its edge and be a little mainstream.

I realised I was getting old when we went to a Led Zep tribute concert (and a very good one at that) and we spent the first half in the concert hall actually watching and the second half in the bar on comfy settees!!!!

(we could still hear)

Black Sabbath
Led Zeppelin
Deep Purple
In that order,i do like all three but Sabbath have to win out for me i'm a proper metalhead!
Got to say though Iron Maiden beat them all hands down for me!!!

Of the three mentioned i'd have to go for Purple.Best riffs by far.

Although i prefer Sabbath i must agree Purple certainly have the riffs.....

None o' that lot. How about Alvin Lee and Ten Years After.

No way!!
Tony Iommi and Sabbath have some of the greatest riffs in metal history!
Paranoid,Iron Man,Sabbath Bloody Sabbath,War Pigs,Black Sabbath,Children of the Grave the list goes on and on.
Deep Purple have two stand out ones-Smoke on the Water and Black Night.
Just my humble opinion though!
