Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Thought "Ramble On" would figure high.
Thanks for the links.
Good stuff.

In Through The Out Door has always been my favorite album of theirs, In the Evening probably being the best on that album. Achilles Last Stand is another favorite song of mine.

I'm sorry, we're all wrong. It's "When the Levee Breaks". THAT is the best all time Led Zep tune. "No Quarter" is second.  =D

That is a rough question.

I don't listen to as much Zeppelin as I used too so here goes in no real order.

In The Light

No Quarter

Achilles Last Stand

In My Time Of Dying

The Rain Song

The Battle Of Evermore

Gallows Pole

Tangerine

Born-Y-Aur Stomp

Bonzo's Montreux

Kashmir

Now I'll have to listen to some and revise that list later.

A couple of people have mentioned songs from Physical Graffiti.  Here are a few more.

Houses of the Holy
Custard Pie
Trampled Under Foot
The Wanton Song

I just closed the door to my office so nobody would catch me listening to my iPod (can't wear them at the station since you can't hear pipes or the SAR alarm) and I'm blowing out my eardrums with Houses of the Holy.

IMO, Achilles Last Stand does, but just my opinion.   =D

I agree with the other sentiment above that In Through the Out Door is probably my favorite album.  All of My Love and Fool in the Rain stand out.

That said, those are just some of many a good song.  I would start listing other albums and songs, but I would end up listing them all.

I remember liking "Ramble On". I was stoned all the time when I listened to Led Zeppelin, so I don't remember much.

I really hate "The Immigrant Song", but I don't remember why.
