OK, I'll be the one to say it: Led Zeppelin.

Yeah, they had some good songs, some of which they blatantly stole from other artists, and I did generally enjoy their albums in the late '70s. But for the love of GOD, they are so overplayed!

Then I hear slurpers on the radio saying they are the "best rock 'n' roll band in history", and I feel like puking. ****ing Grand Funk Railroad (among at least a dozen other bands of that era) could out-rock those assholes practically in their sleep, and they get damn near zero air time!

I get it that shit loads of boomers took their first acid trip listening to Led Zeppelin, but they probably matured at least a little in the last 40 years, and should realize by now that it is decades past the time to let go of that nostalgia band!

Interestingly, the best Zeppelin music seems to covers.

I took a friend to see Mama Mia, her friend was performing in it, and I bought the greatest hits just to get ready for the show. I admit not being a fan back in the day, but I enjoyed that CD quite a bit, and it's a fun show. I think they made a movie version.

And of course, we can't forget they were the favorite band of our favorite, now deceased, backwoods country lawyer, Larry Spencer. RIP.

Mrs LATB: “It’s all overrated”

I’m serious.
I'll be drifting off to a jam reliving the 1970’s and my wife is “what-ev”

ABBA is going to suck again. They're going nuts in Europe over a new hologram show put on by the original members. They had a choregraphed studio performance used with a hologram of their younger selves. Looks interesting.
