Probably my 2 favourite albums after Trespass, and seeing as they're quite closely rated on PA, I want to see which you prefer Smile

Zep. I do like COTC but the Supertramp formula tends to get on my nerves after a while.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Led Zeppelin IV any day of the week over Supertramp. I don't like Supertramp at all.

Supertramp is not a Rock and Roll legend, I think this ain't a fair poll (imho).

Big fan of Supertramp and indeed put that album in the 'Masterpiece' category as its original and beautifully put together. Recording quality is superb.

But ultimately even though Led Zep IV has more obvious influences(some would say borderline plagiarism, but I don't want to be to controversial as its only my 5 post! ;) It has to be IV.

I'm not a big fan of either band, but I love Crime of the Century to bits whereas there's only two tracks on IV that I listen to and frankly side two just bores me to tears.

Sorry about that.

Quite like COTC but even though I like LZ loads. IV is the last album I would want to listen to.  Crime I guess.

IV. It is like an IV direct into my hard rockin' jones.

If it keeps on rainin', yes. It's numbingly boring to me.


Sorry about that.

Led Zeppelin IV is one of my all-time favorite albums so it gets my vote.
