Led Zeppelin

[Philbert]

I was hangin' in SoCal in the early '70s, I caught Spirit at a Pacific Stereo opening, and later Coke Escovedo's "new" band at the same parking lot...music was everywhere.
I ended up in county lockup for a few days once, and Joe Walsh's weekly GF kept my puppy dog for me...kinda cool.
It seemed every time I had to go somewhere, Zepplin came to play when I was gone.
Never caught them live...Jimi once, the Who , various groups here and there...but I didn't like the big commercial venues then, so I passed on a lot of bands.
Loved the smoke though...Texas was just as good; ZZ Top before they were the Top, etc, lots of music in Austin in the '70s.
I was out of the US for around 3 years, party was "over" when I returned. After Altamont time frame...
I still love my music... Zepplin, Jimi, Doors, Canned Heat, Quicksilver, Beatles, Eagles, Jackson Brown, Big Brother and their singer; on and on...
I sure love Southern Rock, double lead and such...it's all good.
Anyone have NRPS? I have 2...NRPS and Panama Red. Classic...

"In My Time of Dying" and "Misty Mountain Hop" are a few of my favorites.

 

[meesterperfect]

i thought their first was really good, coda not too much, ittod and presence ok, the rest are just great, cant choose.

 

[hiropro]

Never seemed to get into them as much as other people did.Favourite album is IV Symbols.

 

[RedPill]

Too hard to select just one, I think they've all been a favorite one time or another.
Currently digging In through the Out Door.

 

[slasher]

Led Zeppelin IV :banger:

 

[spookythemartian]

in through the outdoor was a great album.

 

[eddyb]

# 4 but they are all good:hatsoff:

 

[cannibal-e]

IV. I really have to listen to that album again.

 

[barebeaverlover]

Led Zeppelin 4-amazing album-just my:2 cents:

 

[afterlights]

So I accidentally find this thread while listening to... Zeppelin. (Searching for "Rosie Jones" I find John Paul Jones.)

While I LOVE Physical Graffiti -- listening to it, I think it could only be released as a double-album -- In Through the Out Door is my pick. It teases the future direction of the band by building on what they put on vinyl before it.

A shitty day and In the Evening can be my reset button.

Led Zeppelin IV

 

[bustybbwlover]

IV for me, it's got black dog which is my favorite zeppelin song

 

[ai-ni-ichi]

III for the opening track, mainly

 

[funkipman]

Led Zeppelin II. I have had this conversation many times with friends... "if you were stuck on an island and could only have one zeppelin album which one would it be?"

I was always tempted to say PG for amount of content. But, the fact that everything on II seriously killed and that a drum solo gets radio play to this day is why I love it.

Best band ever:banger:

Plus if there was a deal made with the devil, I'd say John Paul Jones was THE one to do it... dude is still on the scene today with Them Crooked Vultures.

 

[Facetious]

''Presence'' turns out to be one of my faves and yes, it is an album that you need to acquire a taste for.

The following is probably the single best Led Zep video I have ever seen . . very impressive video quality! :hatsoff:




RIPS Bonzo! :bowdown::hatsoff:

I was never a fan of Queens of the Stone Age, but this band rocks.

 

[afterlights]

Well, look who opens the list.

Link from the article.

Really, imo, reading that makes me want to seek out the original material.

 

[Bloodshot Scott]

I have PG and IV and a couple Page and Plant albums. I'd have to say IV, but I should listen to PG again sometime, just for a few years ago sake.

 

[Sin After Sin]

IV.

Coda is the only studio album I don't have on CD. Gotta change that.
