Led Zeppelin is a British heavy metal band of the late 60's and a rock music icon of today. Comprised of Robert Plant as their lead vocalist, Jimmy Page on guitars, John Bonham on drums and John Paul Jones on bass, Led Zeppelin is one of the most highly influential and successful groups in music history even after they disbanded in 1980 in response to John Bonham's death. They helped define a new sound by taking the blues up to another level which is now known as heavy metal. Part of their achievements in more than 20 years was when they ranked first on VH1's 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock.
