I’ve been listening to Led Zep my whole life, own their albums on vinyl, can sing along to every song off of the first four albums, have covered them in more than one band.
Gun to my head? I couldn’t name more than a couple songs.
Between having a terrible memory and listening to entire albums over individual songs I can’t make songs from any band I love, hell, half the time I couldn’t name the album. I try to listen to a few new albums every week, how the hell can I remember all that? I spent four hours trying to find a solo I heard last month to show my girlfriend, listening to every album I’ve listened to since then, she stopped caring long before I found it.
I don’t know where I was going with this, but if a douchebag pulled the shit from the comic on me I think I’d beat him to death with my original Zeppelin II pressing.

That’s probably because you listen to music for enjoyment rather than to prove something… How dare you!
I’m the same way. I really couldn’t name too many songs from any of my favorites bands.
It’s always been a cause of anxiety in these situations. I could probably sing along with the entire song, but the name will always escape me.
