sure Pink Floyd is good, and of course majority will say Zepplin, considering the track record of both those bands, they would recieve a low grade for partnership, and "band" mentality - considering their egos led to their breakup.

ZZ Top still going strong and still together.

One of my favorite bands, and thats why I vote them BEST BAND EVER.

Not bands who couldnt stay together long enough or stay alive to put out music/...
ZZ TOP are super cool, too bad they are mainly connected with their 80's era.

Recently I seen a video from 1980 - Essen Rockpalast - to play this in a trio - killer concert! Billy Gibbons sure is one of the very underrated guitarists, he has great riffs, perfect feeling and seriously recognizable guitar sound.

For anyone who knows only their recent stuff - I seriously recommend to check the 70's albums.
