This is one weird thread. People making out they were into them as kids and are now too grown up for 'em, you may as well call Led Zeppelin music for children then. I'm in my 40's and I consider them as one of the very best rock bands of the last 25 years and a class above The Pixies (who are brilliant - not quite as good as Jane's though). They were original and good musicians too. They also were a big influence on The Smashing Pumpkins and Tool. And for a band that you supposedly heard everywhere in the late 80's/early 90's, their records were remarkably unsuccessful commercially (look at chart placings). Hmmm......strange..
