70s: UK or US?

[Nololob]

We all know 70s was a big boom for rock in both sides of Atlantic. But which side do you prefer: UK or US?

Examples of UK bands:
Led Zeppelin
Deep Purple
Uriah Heep
Nazareth
Black Sabbath
Pink Floyd
Budgie
UFO
Status Quo
Wishbone Ash

Examples of US bands:
Aerosmith
Blue Öyster Cult
Grand Funk Railroad
KISS
Alice Cooper
Ted Nugent
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Boston
Eagles
Kansas


Please stick with 70s. I decided to not include Both option in poll, it would be too easy.

I can't pick, both countries put out some killer stuff in the 70s.

I'm not being patriot or anti-American or anything like that, but I definitely prefer UK 70's bands. If I think of my top ten 70's groups, there isn't one from the US on my list.

Though a number of great bands came from here in the U.S. I would say more of my favorite bands came from the U.K.

Us

This was one of the toughest polls, I had to look at both lists and made my vote based on how many of albums of each band.
The U.S. won because more of the bands in the U.S. I have most of their catalogs!

THIS WAS HARD!!!

 

[R. Evans]

Gonna follow the Fleetwood Mac and Foreigner models, both mixed bands.

Abstain.

 

[The Beatles]

uk no hesitation

 

[Aktivator]

UK by a good margin. Both have a great catalog of albums and bands but in the end there are just too many of my favorites from the UK.

Today its a lot closer and I would guess the US is now winning.
