Only in the same way that Led Zeppelin sounds "obvious".
The context from which you're listening to it is partly defined by it.
(I really don't want to get in to a "who is better/more important/whatever" argument. If choosing Led Zeppelin as a comparison bothers you, please substitute for taste.)
- Ididntdothis 7y agoI didn’t mean the exact music as obvious but the style and tools they used. Same for electric guitars and the effects being used. Now totally normal but there was a time when people had to come up with that idea.
- nine_k 7y agoOK, not LZ but Jimi Hendrix maybe? Someone who defined new sound which is "obvious" and widespread now?
- Lio 7y agoPersonally I think you’d have to go back further to find an equivalent. Maybe Bo Diddily? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bo_Diddley https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bo_Diddley
- pstuart 7y agoI'm not sure about that. Zep looted a lot of blues songs and just made 'em harder, and "hard rock" was a thing by that time. I was a huge fan and they were my first "real" concert in 1977, at the infamous Day on the Green where Bonham and Grant were arrested for beating up a BGP employee. Get off my lawn! :-)
