Zeppelin is one of my all time faves .... they never get old ... but I really don't consider them prog related at all...

I voted for Achilles Last Stand but on any other day it might have been Carouselambra or The Rain Song. But then again there's No Quarter. *sigh*

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

the most progressive Zep was when the four of them walked onto stage and made magic, their albums rarely captured that.. they actually got more progressive with every passing tour

I don't see how one song on the list is proggier than the other. "Kashmir" draws from Middle-eastern themes and compositional structure, "The Battle of Evermore" is a progressive folk tune with allusions to Tolkien, nonstandard instrumentation and Sandy Denny of Fairpost Convention singing duet, "When the Levee Breaks" is about as progressive as the blues form can get, Steve Hackett lifted a whole section of "The Song Remains the Same" for his song "Ace of Wands".
*shrugs*
A group doesn't need the limitations of being labeled a "prog band" to be progressive.

A good selection. And even accompanied by great proggish songs like No Quarter, Stairway to Heaven, The Battle of Evermore, Kashmir and Achilles' Last Stand, my vote goes to the underrated Carouselambra.
