Led Zeppelin

Just wondering who here likes Led Zepplin alot. And if you do like them...I was curious as to what your favorite songs or albums are? I would probably have to go with the following as my favorite songs from each album:

Zep I - Black Mountain Side
Zep II - Thank You
Zep III - Since I've Been Loving You
Zep IV - When The Levee Breaks
Houses - No Quarter
Grafitti - Kashmir
Presence - Nobodys Fault But Mine
Door - South Bound Suarez
Coda - Poor Tom

Favorite Album: Houses of the Holy

By the way...I did a search for this. I find it hard to believe this thread has never been started before.

It has.

Well it seems the link doesn't work. But it was a link to a Led Zepplin thread. Honest.



Edit: It's now working, so that wasn't a complete waste of time.

I love zeppelin. I only have IV and this weird greatest hits one i found at a record store. My favorite songs of theirs are Kashmir, Over the hills and far away, rock and roll, when the levy breaks, heartbreaker, and stairway to heaven. My friend bought the box set of their complete studio recordings

Perhaps the spelling of the band's name was in error in the search?

Good point.l I think it has an "e" in it. Zeppelin

Nevertheless....no biggie

I've never been big on Zep, Robert Plant scares me.

But John Paul Jones is an incredible talent, IMHO.

damn straight terminal frost

btw this is my first post in this forum.

as a bass player, i find that JPJ is an incredible source of inspiration, unlike a certain one popular on this site.
his blues-rooted style is impeccable; no bassist should go without hearing a little bit of him.

and he's nice on the keys as well.

I agree. They are/were all very talented. Besides J P J, Bonham is
perannually cited as an all-time skin pounder, Page of course is in everyone's top 10.

They were great. Did great tunes.

I'm at a loss to explain why I never paid much attention to them.

Plant's hair and androgyne, I suppose. I thought he was a woman for a long time.

Welcome, Rambler!!

You should check out Page's solo stuff as well. OUTRIDER IS EXCLLENT! Also his Coverdale/Page album with Dave Coverdale..Good stuff Maynard..

Zeppelin ROCKS ! Can anyone name a band that was more talented all around from Plants voice to Pages tremendous guitar playing the underated JPJ on bass and Bonzo goin nuts on drums ? I think not !

My favorite song from each album:

I-Dazed N Konfuzed
II-Ramble On
III-Gallow's Pole
IV-Stairway(every 1 is a classic)
Houses of Holy-Over the Hills and Far Away
Physical Graffiti-The Rover
Presence-Achilles Last Stand
In Through the Out Door-In the evening
Coda-Ozone Baby

The Who
Pink Floyd
The Beatles


Don't get me wrong, I love LZ, they were one of the greatest.....ONE of the greatest...bands ever. But if your going to pick them apart, songwriting, instrument by instrument, and vocals.... The three I mentioned have 'em beat. IMHO....

I do feel that Led Zep was at their best longer than the Who was at their respective best. Led Zep was much more consistent.

To each his own....Led Zep is not my favorite group BUT when you compare member by member,instrument by instrument the total all around musical skills... i dont think ANYONE can touch them.

Cheers mate.

I would respectfully disagree, but that's my opinion, and your may differ.....Both bands kick ass.
