III is the one that got me into Zep because it seemed different to their other work

III has "Immigrant Song" and "Since I've Been Loving You" as well as "Friends". that's a fuckin monster trio there.

I sometimes think my favourite III jam might be Hats Off To Harper

I would (in fact I did) keep Houses of the Holy, and Physical Grafitti. The rest I don't bother with.

Love them all but adore III.

Houses of the Holy was my original favorite, so many jangling geetar riffs.

Love the crispness of the drums, the excitement, and the middle section of "we're gonna groove." Favorite b side, besting the formula of "traveling riverside" and ultimate banality of "hey hey what can I do"

is there a studio version of that? only one i've heard is from the live DVD @ albert hall
― global tetrahedron, Thursday, 6 April 2017 15:28 (seven years ago) link
Yes on Coda
― calstars, Thursday, 6 April 2017 15:53 (seven years ago) link
the albert hall version is the one on Coda…only difference is vocal and guitar overdubs…

it's a super close race butI is my favorite most of the time. they got deeper and more majestic later on but the first album is such a solid explosion of rock power, with lots of neat quiet parts too.

oh i haven't really listened to the three albums after Physical Graffiti

'Achilles Last Stand' from Presence is so classic it isn't even funny, and may be their best ever track. It's certainly my favourite thing they've ever done - the rest of the album could never have possibly lived up to it. The highest point of Led Zeppelin, IMO.

Achilles gets a lot of love in this household. Definitely an all time Page production.
