Rock bands, especially ones with a harder edge, have historically had a tough time dominating the singles chart. Perhaps no better example exists than Led Zeppelin.
The English rockers are one of the top-selling bands of all time, with more than 300 millions albums sold worldwide, and more than 110 million in the U.S. Of their eight studio albums, four went Diamond while the rest were merely multi-Platinum. Led Zeppelin IV is one of only 12 albums in history to go double Diamond.
All that record-breaking success, and yet Led Zeppelin has never had a #1 hit on the Hot 100.
