That live take is pretty damn good, that slightly jazzy section and the nice JPJ interplay with Page. Prefer that version to the album too. And probably the most freaky thing about the visuals for me, is Jonesy's haircut Tongue


Goes well with his frilly shirt though...
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

The Rain Song. Absolutely beautiful, mystical, serene and cathartic.

song remains the same, but the live versions of these are so much better

I couldn't really pick. Every song is pretty awesome.

D'yer Maker, No Quarter, The Rain Song, Over the Hills and Far Away, and the Ocean have all been favorites at one point.

I LOVE it. In fact it's The Crunge that I cringe to, a bit. Tongue


Yeah, me three. D'yer Ma'ker is a bit of fun. And I think Alex has something with the mini suite call, and for me, especially the opening 2 taken together (very especially live) are magic. All the pomp and energy of TSRTS just melts into the lushness of The Rain Song.

The Song remains the Same is my fav track followed closely by The Ocean and No Quarter - album is spoiled by the truly awful D'Yer Maker and The Crunge

I have always loved The Rain Song, which is one of my favourite Zeppeli songs... beautiful mellotron playing from John Paul Jones.

The whole album is pretty great, couldn't pick one song. No Quarter is pretty beast though.

No Quarter is just way too godly to vote against.
