Voted initialy for The Who Sell Out. Two great songs as (live!) decor aswell Smile

1969 (audio only, because I cant find Youtube clip with a footage from the time, or even close, when the Zep debut was released!)
 
1968

Both great albums, but I gotta go with Zep on this one.

Those were released almost in the same year, both great, both made by English bands who are in PA' Proto Prog Prog Related section, that's all.
 
PS BTW,  I get an idea to post a few  Zep vs Who albums polls because I saw many polls Who vs Zep as the bands  polls, I never saw the albums battle Smile

If it were the bands, The Who every time. But Led Zep I is still an utter classic, whilst Sell Out wasn't that at the time of release.

Zep in this case.
The Who have the odd great album eg Who's Next and some very average ones, Face Dances....

Led Zeppelin's 60s era is golden, Who's 60s era not so much although still decent and with the ocassional stunner.
 
However, when it comes to the 70s The Who beats Zeppelin in almost every case for me.

The first Led Zeppelin album is in my top 70.  The Who Sell Out is in my top 50.

The Who all the way. The Who Sell Out is an amazing conceptual record, full of originality. That cannot be said about the Zep. Led Zeppelin I is plagued with plagiarism.

Honestly, I've never been too crazy about either band's late 60s output (with the exception of The Who's "Tommy"), but Led Zep I is a much heavier and solid record, especially for a debut.
