    they were a bit ahead of my time so to speak, but i have their double disk DVD - the one with the Royal Albert Hall performance on disk1. most probably the tightest live act i've ever seen. tight in terms of delivery + technical ability + presence.

    just absolutely blows me away every time. that special clip (Denmark Radio) featuring communication breakdown is single handedly the coolest thing i've ever seen in music.

    The greatest rock band to ever grace this Earth....Period

    The first time I heard No Quarter, I was a teen in the midst of hair metal being shoved down my throat by MTV. My brother was playing No Quarter, and all day, I was humming that riff.


    Often duplicated, never matched.....DA MIGHTY ZEP!

    i notice an enormous amount of love for houses of the holy. sure, it is stunning in its scope, but for me:

    led zep1 > untitiled > led zep3 > led zep2 > houses

    must be said that i'll give house 10/10, so not much room for debate

    We must be on the same wavelength. I once started a Zep thread too.

    i cant even start to rate those albums. as peter griffin says "it's like trying to choose between cameron diaz and kirsten dunst in a hot body messed up face contest, it just cant be done." they are all great in their own way. historically i would have to say untitled is the best, but my personal preference would be 1 or 2 and that would depend on what kind of mood i was in at the moment.

    god bless whoever started this thread. There can never be enough Led Zep threads!

    Kudos to Achilles Last Stand, but how about the flip-side of that.

    The Rain Song.

    The greatest piece of orchestration ever in rock music? Discuss!
