Don't forget the Stones had a good influence on Led Zeppelin too. They are both incredible bands. Zeppelin's influence is more apparent in modern music, since Blues/Rock isn't all that prevalent compared to Hard Rock. Don't get me wrong they were both Blues/Rock but Zeppelin was defenitely pushing into Heavy Metal. The Stones kept more to their blues/rock roots and continue to do so.
Top 3 English bands to me:
Led Zeppelin
Rolling Stones
The Animals
In that order.
