I remember when Sabbath, and Deep Purple were considered Acid Rock
Black Sabbath was by far my favourite band. They still very much are still. There's never a week, possibly even a day that goes by that I don't listen to Black Sabbath. I love Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple, But it is Sabbath I always felt the closest to for 50 years now. Im 61 and first discovered the song Paranoid on an 8 track hits compilation my brother in law gave to me. The song Paranoid was tucked between BTOs "Let It Ride" and Gladys Night and the Pips " Midnight Train To Georgia." I used keep rewinding to replay "Paranoid" over and over until finally the cassette gave in or the player did because it got eaten up in the player. I didn't know who Black Sabbath was then. Then, that same summer, my sister's boyfriend challenged me to jump across a river in the middle of town. It wasn't big or anything, but there were craggy rocks on both sides. If I could do it he said he would give me his Black Sabbath Vol. 4 album. I did it. I landed in those jaded rocks on the orher side full body slam straight into them. My elbows, ribs, side of my face, knees, shins, everywhere waa torn and bleeding, but I got the album for 100% effort because he said, technically, I didn't make it across, I just slammed into the stones. He gave me the album and I went straight home having no genuine idea what I was going to hear, but somehow, I knew I was going to love it and right from the first notes of "Wheels Of Confusion" I most certainly did, and still get a charge out it to this day. That's something I continued to get out of Sabbath. I didn't get that from any other band in any period of music both then and now.
Don't agree with Ian. Ian is my favorite singer. Deep Purple my favorite band. Too me it was Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, The who,The Doors, Led Zeppelin. All these bands. But Deep Purple rules!😊
Agreed!
All 3 bands were very important bands of the early 70's they help to change to what music is today. Yes some where more successful than others I myself did like one more than the other 2
But their went beyond just hardrock.
Been listening to their latest releases... and man am I so happy.
Since I was a kid, Deep Purple has been one of my very favorite bands (above led Zeppelin) which brought much teasing from others because they were never actually interested in music.. just the popular 'top 10/40' types while was actually interested in music, rather than popularity.
Led Zeppelin had a leg up from the start..
both Jimmy and John were already well known and mire importantly liked in the studio circuit before led Zeppelin was even an idea..
Ritchie was considered 'quirky'.. difficult to get along with because he was more if an introvert/not very outgoing and friendly and he had a bit of an awkward personality..
But when you compare Jimmy to Ritchie, the level of skill is completely obvious
Deep Purple also went through constant lineup changes from the start.. and again, Ritchie was difficult to work with as he has a very strong personality, and he was constantly searching for a change in sound and delivery.
Led Zeppelin caught on within society easier, because they were just sort of raw and 'Rock n Roll' .. plus they had more support from the industry,
Deep Purple became a more niche popular band.. record labels viewed the band as a bit risky because it didn't have the same stability as led Zeppelin..
The politics of the music industry are harsh and difficult to navigate unless you don't mind just going with the flow (as Zeppelin did)
Jeff Beck was more similar to Ritchie in this context.. as he became bored when in a monotonous situation musically..
But the real Daddies of heavy metal/Heavy rock/Punk and much more were the Kinks.
Hey Check out UFO and Michael Schenker on Guitar. Grossly underrated. Start with Obsession. Enjoy.🎉
Yes, UFO is just below the bands in this poll, Michael Schenker is one of the top 10 guitarists in my book. Obsession is a killer album.
Ya! UFO and MSG are among my favorites!!!
Black Sabbath was Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin was Led Zeppelin. Judas Priest, Iron Maiden also important in that genre. And there were others. Each band should be appreciated for what they offered us so long as it was an original sound and not pure derivative pablum.
And the Survey says-Are you fucking kidding?
Black Sabbath? Well no, Pink Floyd most important band in all the seventies years with their influences, first psychedelic, later more symphonic. LZ and DP with hard rock/ heavy metal mainly in the first half of the seventies.
Come on!! Sabbath or Deep Purple over Led Zeppelin? Crazy!!! Love both bands and would do a sleep over but. I'd always creep back home to LED ZEPPELIN and probably say i was with Purple Sabbath and Deep Black
That's why there are bands.All good ,all different.
I saw both BS and LZ in 1972....NO CONTEST Zep was far greater
Got that right ! Seen both and Led Zep were another level or two up.
DP is the epitome of a KICKASS ROCK BAND!!!
All positions filled to capacity….🎅🏼
1)DEEP PURPLE - line up: Gillan, Paice, Blackmore, Glover, Lord; 2)BLACK SABBATH - line up: Osbourne, Ward, Iommi, Butler; 3)URIAH HEEP - with Byron and Hensley; 4) GRAND FUNK RAILROAD; 5) ..... others
Uriah Heep was an awesome band..
but about a year or two ago I saw they had a new release... it was completely disappointing.. 😞
So commercial and just.. really bad, especially the lyrics.
@@warthogA10 And that's why I wrote: with Byron and Hensley. Similary Deep Purple: line up Gillan, Paice, Blackomore, Glover, Lord.
Gillan is right. Nobody would have guessed it in the 1970s as BS was considered the weakest of the four (including Uriah Heep). I was a teen back then and still agree with this evaluation. However there is no denial that from 1990 on (likely even before) BS was the most influential and Led Zep the least.
As for me, Led Zeppelin were very experimental, only within already established genres, so their music was more understandable and popular than the music of the other two of the triumvirate; Deep Purple's experiments were innovative, but in general they had a greater influence on individual performers, although they made a significant contribution to the development of metal; But the experiments of Black Sabbath influenced more the groups than the performers, which is more noticeable than the influence of Deep Purple.
I love this bands,but in my opinion, Ritchie Blackmore was the difference.
What a fantastic video have a wonderful day ❤😊
Back in the days.. these bands sort of made jokes about Black Sabbath.. because it scared them. 🤣
Members of Deep Purple, and led Zeppelin would make little jokes, digs at Sabbath's expense, but in reality they were all basically mates..
but just as with any business, there's a competition.
Publicly they'd throw digs/shade at one another and pretend to not be interested..
but privately they all respect one another..
In the early days though there were personal behavior clashes among all these people, especially due to members of sabbath having heavy drug addictions/dependencies.. in contrast to members of Zeppelin and Purple being mostly heavy drinkers, and a bit less with the drugs (well, as far as they say publicly)
It seems difficult for society to think about what made/makes a band 'important' because most people confuse this with popularity..
The question isn't about, or asking "who's your favorite" or "which is best" (the latter is ridiculous because none are "the best" it just breaks down to who's your personal favorite.)
Black Sabbath was important because they created a new sound, they didn't follow the mainstream.. which opened a door to an entirely new space or room for music..
Kiss did the same, but in different ways.
Alice in chains was an important band as well (even more so than Nirvana)
The most recent band which I consider as important is called Highly Suspect..
and they are not nearly as well known as they should be, which is bizarre to me.
Zeppelin, Sabbath and Deep Purple in that order for me, Zeppelin was the best hard rock band ever and sounded better than anyone else, period. Sabbath was the first heavy metal band and not far behind. Deep Purple influenced countless bands and come right after the other 2 for me. They all are Rock Gods, they are all worthy of their status in music history.
Yes they were
Grew up in the 70s as a teenager. This is just how I see things from my perspective. Zeppelin 1st, The Who 2nd , Deep Purple 3rd., and the rest of the UK bands following them.
The List:
The Beatles
Black Sabbath
Everyone else.
Mon groupe préféré est : THE WHO. Entre Led Zep et Deep purple, je préfère Deep Purple.
Many years have passed but I still haven't decided. for me they are both number 1 😁
Deep purple has always been more influenced by classical music and they are great musicians.
That’s your opinion of course,….and my opinion as the most important band is no other than The Mighty Led Zeppelin.
RnR is not a science. Who gives a fu*k which band is "important".
Everyone has their own preferences and tastes in music. Now, THAT is RnR.

Unholy trinity? Hardly. All three were important to the progress of heavy rock as a genre. But to call them unholy is a stretch. Pagan influences maybe. But read the lyrics to sabbaths master of reality. They are very pro Christian. Not that sabbath was a Christian band. But unholy like devil worshippers. I think not.
I think he meant it metaphorically.
What Christians ?. The FACT is that back then, Black Sabbath were banned in the Bible belt in Murica. Personally, I wouldn't play in those places anyway.
@@verresmilliterres just because they were banned in the Bible Belt doesn’t mean anything. Those people ban anything spooky. The point is they weren’t satanists.
@@Vinylfiend60 I'm not saying that !. I'm simply pointing out that they were perceived as Satanists and they knew it. Ritchie knew it from the negative treatment and reviews. Black Sabbath especially. My stepfather expressed similar concerns when I first played purchased and played their first album "Black Sabbath." I didn't even know that album existed until I got to go to the store. I already had their Vol. 4 album but did not have a clue that there were three albums before it until I asked the guy I won the album Vol. 4 what that meant. Then he told me, lol. I lived quite literally out in the woods of Maine back then.
I was at Ozz Fest 2000. The mighty Pantera opened for Ozzy. Sure ,The Ozz Man bills himself as the prince of Darkness, but Phil shouted hail satan!!! before they went into By Demons be Driven and about 30-40k sounded off. I did not. Ozzy always says at his shows "God Bless you all"!!!. Pantera, ya kinda satanic, but they rock. I'd say Sabbath were influenced by the dark side a bit, but not too unholy. Rock on guys.
I'm pretty sure Gillan just meant that as a figure of speech. I've got a ton of videos on occult influences on metal, including zeppelin etc. in the member's section if anyone's interested.
@@blackjackmusic1107 You never know what Phil is talking about. I saw Down in Las Vegas a few years ago and Phil pointed me out in the balcony and introduced me as “Ladies and Gentlemen the advocate” I still don’t know what the hell he meant by that lol. Later on he threw a water bottle right at me lol. I still have the bottle as a memento lol.
@@Vinylfiend60 Fill'er up and get'ya a pull then lol As Dime might say
No
None of these bands were even close to The Who on a bad day.
LOL, saw all 4 in their prime, that is a load crap, they are all worthy. I love the WHO but they are not better, just equals, they all are Rock Gods!
I don’t own any Black Sabbath records, on the other hand, I own most of Led Zeppelin and even have a deep purple record!
Black Sabbath never impressed me!
By the way, I have always lived in Seattle!
On the one hand, I agree with you (only on the contrary, I have all the Deep Purple records, several Led Zeppelin records and only 1 Black Sabbath record), but on the other hand, I am not interested in metal and grunge, except for individual songs, so The importance of Black Sabbath is not obvious to me.
