Zep is one of my all-time favorites. I'm far too young to have seen them live or anything, but I know they put on amazing shows, having heard many of them recorded in both audio and video formats. I have a ton of downloaded bootlegs. The Knebworth shows near the end of their run are some of my favorites. Does anyone else have a favorite live show?
Favorite album is The Houses of the Holy for me, which places me in the minority, because most people favor II or IV (Zoso), which I also love. It's hard to pick a favorite song, and I have rotating favorites, but my current favorite is Thank You from Led Zeppelin II.

Get the Led out!
My favorite album is probably the first one. I have the complete studio works + How the West Was Won on a DVD that's generally in my laptop. It makes for a good listen when I'm stuck alone at work.
I turn off Stairway to Heaven when It comes on the radio.
It's like Nirvana - Smells like Teen Spirit. I've heard them so many times that they do nothing for me. It pisses me off that it's the only Zeppelin song that gets radio play.

I just got in a bunch of bootleg Led Zeppelin concert recordings yesterday...really great stuff.
The guy even threw in the DVD of the May 24th, 1975 Earl's Court show which was incredible to watch. No Quarter is godly on that show. They did Black Dog as the encore on there...really cool stuff.
I love how their overall sound was different from show to show, but it still always sounded amazing.
I have no problem with Stairway to Heaven especially if you listen to all the different ways they performed it, it's not even the same song entirely with the improvisation done. I prefer the live versions of it more because the Gibson EDS-1275 sounds phenomenal to me.

Kashmir is probably their best song period.

I begin to do that with a lot of the more popular Zep songs. It's bound to happen when you listen to a type of Greatest Hits album over and over

When the Levee Breaks is my personal favourite. (Kashmir is Robert Plant's favourite, though.)

I remember reading or hearing that Zep themselves wanted to tout Kashmir (which I agree is an incredible song) to try to get everyone off the Stairway bandwagon.
I still think to this day that they haven't gotten away from Stairway being the most popular, if not widely regarded as their best, song.

Honestly I rotate favorites because they have such diversity in their own work. My current favorite is

I think Kashmir does so much in terms of different sounds that it is a masterpiece of a song.
Plus you get a great demonstration of Robert Plant's range as a singer.
Too bad he had to turn into a faggot and started with the country music shit that he does now.

Do you collect/trade these? I used to for years before I came here...I have a lot of audio, but mostly video on disks that fill an entire box. I used to have a list that I kept up to date, I wonder if I can find it.
