The greatest Zeppelin song of all time (rock, great songs, album)

Davey Moore · 07-13-2008, 05:32 PM

That's The Way
Bron-Yr-Aur
White Summer/Black Mountainside
The Rain Song
Ten Years Gone
Going To California
Your Time Is Gonna Come
Down By The Seaside

Can't name a favorite though the ones I slightly prefer more are at the top. The most obscure Led Zeppelin songs are usually the most tender and sweet things, yet their most popular songs are usually straight up Classic Rock stuff. Kashmir is an exception to that though.

This should have been a poll.
Personally, 'Trampled Underfoot' / 'Dazed and Confused'.

'kashmir' can go **** itself

Two out of my favourite four! I have a little soft spot for 'In The Evening' too.

Hey Lucifer_Sam didn't Zep do a song that the drum tracks were recorded in an empty swimming pool? It was a long long time ago, but I think I read about it in Rolling Stone article many years ago. And another trivia bit, David Gilmour has Bonzo's drum kit in his home studio, Mustaine mentioned it in an interview when Megadeth recorded one of their albums at Gilmour's mansion.

Not one to my knowledge. Might have escaped my unnatural obsession with Zeppelin...

I think Bring It On Home is really starting to grow on me. It's such a natural set-ender and really outperforms the original blues version. Tea for One is a favorite of mine as well.

Hi, Im new here

I really like:

Nobody's fault but mine
Ramble On
Kashmir
D'yer maker

But I think Led Zeppelin is known specifically for Stairway to Heaven.

The Monkey · 07-18-2008, 06:02 AM

I'm gonna go with the obvious one and say Stairway to Heaven.

Honourable mentions include Immigrant Song, Rock and Roll, Whole Lotta Love and Over the Hills and Far Away.

When the levee breaks, oops they didnt write that one, Dazed and Confused so

Uh what?

When the Levee Breaks is a cover only loosely, they revamped the hell out of the melody to the point that it's pretty much a different song with just the same lyrics. And most of the time these are the "uncredited covers" we hear about.

Dazed & Confused however was a cover. But once again of course, a completely revamped and radically different version.

Pretty much all of their covers are insanely different from the original.

There is an obvious answer to this question...
