    The Who didn't invent Heavy Metal either...

    You are giving the Who WAY WAY too much credit tonight.....

        Link Wry started the broken speaker distortion with the song rumble
        But I believe heavy metal was more what zeppelin was doing
        Or at least that when the phrase came about

          The first band I ever heard the term heavy metal applied to was BLUE CHEER. They were around before Sabbath.

            IIRC, the first band to use the term "heavy metal" in a song was Steppenwolf (Born To Be Wild) in 1968.

                  You know a lot of people don’t know this but it was actually invited by Nikolai Tesla & then subsequently stolen by the CIA upon his death....

                  Personally I think he was channeling aliens & the ghost of Gorge Washington at the time he did this but nobody knows for sure & it’s a topic of great debate. Mostly because it’s also possible that he could have been talking to the devil & channeling the ghost of Marry Queen Of Scott’s instead???

                    I've always figured it was mostly Led Zeppelin. The Immigrant Song, Kashmir, Heartbreaker, When the Levee Breaks, Black Dog, Communications Breakdown . . . these all kinda paved the way for metal to come. Dark sounding, intricate guitar playing, heavy riffing.

                        More proof for Blue Cheer. Please note that Clapton even said Blue Cheer was the first metal band. Think he would know?

                            Yes - but the term refers to the car of interest in the song. American "Heavy Metal" is a name for a type/style of vehicle. It had no reference to the sound of the music.
