I'm not sure how obscure these are considered to be, but they're not as well known I guess.

Bands similar to Led Zeppelin worth checking out: Thin Lizzy, Deep Purple, Rainbow, and UFO.

Fuck Jason, those aren't obscure band.

Here, check out the following for Led Zeppelin like bands (when first listening to music I was a fucking dad rocker and found these out). Well, I haven't listened to them in a while (exception being rose hill drive who's song "sneak out" is a song I play often in guitar hero) so apologies if it's not exactly like them, but close enough and they're still all good Hard rock type stuff:

Rose Hill Drive
The Answer
The Union
Stone Gods
Black spiders
StoneRider
Jackwc
Queen Of The Forums

Actually I was just listening to Josh Ritter's new album, he's a lot like Paul Simon, check him out.

Simon & Garefunkel,


I'd like to suggest listening to The Louvin Brothers and Everly Brothers, even if they're not all that obscure. that's where those harmonies were perfected. for a more obscure songwriter pick, try Gene Clark (originally of The Byrds)

1970s King Crimson. Specifically Red and Lizard

They're not all that obscure, but you should check out Big Star. They're a great example of the 70s Power pop sort of stuff that you seem to like, and generally a fantastic band.
