Zepplin had influence over a broader spectrum of musicians for sure. Thats why one would say that Zepplin was more influential than Sabbath. But Sabbath does hold a special place with the Metal crowd, not because Sabbath was specifically Metal, but because most Metal bands desired the "dark" sound that Sabbath epitomized.
Sure. But you cited "Communication Breakdown" as being influential in metal. Something that I don't really see. At the very least, not as much as say, some Sabbath songs.

I refer you to virtually *all* of Toys In The Attic.
You will not get me in agreement with you on this score Robert! Unless you were to rephrase a few things...
