my favourite LZ albums are I and II, so get your facts straight first of all. GnR had one good album of classics, LZ had at least 5 packed with brilliant, classic songs.
whole lotta love
black dog
stairway to heaven
immigrant song
dazed and confused
communication breakdown
what is and what should never be
achilles last stand
when the levee breaks
the ocean
heartbreaker
kashmir
in my time of dying
to name a few, the list is endless. any rational person can see LZ's career was a lot bigger, better and generally more successful than GnR, testament to LZ for being around and relevant for 12 years, shame GnR couldnt do the same huh? and as YOU say, stats dont lie. but of course anyone who argues against you is wrong,
