If you like your Metal, it HAS to be the groundbreaking innovative ( at the time) Yardbirds, with a young Jimmy Page.. Black Sabbath could be said to be the first "metal" band formed as such, as Zeppelin and Purple were originally blues based bands (all from the same part of the UK by the way),even Uriah Heap, but its close to call - end of 69 / early 70 there was a metal explosion ! Brilliant !
