In 2003 I covered it myself, along with "Echoes" by Pink Floyd, and other songs that might be hard to imagine done any other way.
I vote for my own version  |

I have the DVD, so I guess it's the same one. I guess I would actually have to look out the story of this concert(s) once again, since it seems to be recorded in many different places... and some I'm not really sure if it's live or merely a video and them actually playing elsewhere. I mean, like you said, just in the wild, and some other songs in the middle of such small indian towns or whatever. Though I believe the DVD is the culmination of some sort of tour, actually. Still, great stuff, I think I actually like this album/DVD more than any of Zep's original studio albums (except perhaps IV). Edited by Dellinger - February 12 2015 at 21:51 |

The Belgian neo-prog band Now did a cover of Kashmir on their album Deep in 1992. I wasn't particularly impressed with it.
Anyway, voted for the original.

By the way, has anyone here heard two Kashmir wannabees, Jon Anderson's Top of the World (The Glass Bead Game) and Hall and Oates' Winged Bull? Pretty precious stuff. Thanks Jon, Daryl, and John!

Oh, that would have to be the Godzilla version merely for its shear audacity! Actually, it was laughable, but Page gave it some pedigree by playing on it.

The Puff Daddy version, which adds the groove that the original version tragically lacked.

Did you see it as it was originally aired on MTV? That MTV special? 'Cause it looked like it was recorded live, but in the wild. (Or a set, haha.) Here, I found the video of it. Around the 2 min. mark you start to see it, recording in a forest or something. I thought it was a really fantastic opening for the Page/Plant special: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXNfq2mq-hg

Oh well, perhaps I would need to give it a listen again, but I'm not sure I would find anything I didn't before. The original No Quarter is just perfect and wonderful, the Unledded version just sounds like noise, and all the melodies and riffs are buried into it. |

Oh well, I didn't expect this one to be so one-sided (though perhaps I should have expected the original to win from the beginning). However, I thought about including only Led Zeppelin versions, or closely related (as on the Unledded album). The Puff Daddy one I added mainly as a joke, but if I remember well, it's actually related to Zep, since I believe Jimmy Page was somewhat involved with it, he played the guitar, and I believe he actually appeared on the video (though I don't really know how it works about Page playing on the song... if it was actually just sampled from the original, or the music was played again, or what). By the way, I find it rather difficult to choose one of the versions, since I really like them all, and they are all different enough to be enjoyed for their own reasons (Puff Daddy not included, though). However, I guess my favourites would be among the original and the Unledded version, and given the lack of variaty on the voting, I'll be going with the Unledded version.

Shame on you, you left out the Dixie Dregs version on Bring 'Em Back Alive. I prefer the original, but it's a close second for me.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

The Sex Pistols!
 Yes, they really did it on their reunion in the 90s. Sorry, I don't have any link to it. In all seriousness, nothing beats the original, yet I voted the Unledded version simply because I like Middle Eastern music a lot and thought they added a new and appropriate dimension to it.

Original studio gets my vote, but the poll could have also included the excellent cover version by Kevin Gilbert on the Thud bonus disc...

Original, but also looking foward to "Driving Through Kashmir" which I feel could have some potential of me liking it more.
