Yeah, that surprised me too. I knew Queen was extraordinary popular in UK but Led not in the top 60??

But then again, for a long time, I thought Led was a California band and not British.

Looking at their discography & chart history, I imagine a part of my perception gap stems from this. Their last major track in the U.S. was 1980 ("Another One Bites The Dust"). They remained radio relevant in the UK for about another 15 years after that.

Two days, but high seed still goes through on a tie. PF got a late push.

Shocked to see Led Zep beat out AC/DC ... but then again I'm biased because I've seen AC/DC live several times and thought they were amazing even though that 'style' isn't really something I'm into.

now sure why. acdc only knows a few chords and 1 drumbeat. Zepplin is far more interesting.

Really sad that the 2 most interesting bands left faced each other in Who/PF. But that's tourneys for you.
