You have some of their best songs on that listAngry
 
Voted 'Candy Store Rock'. I must be one of the few people who loves 'D'yer Mak'er".

I don't know. I can't say I dislike any of their songs.

D'yer Maker is one of my favorite from them.

Jamaica? (correct spelling)

D'yer maker? (Cockney accent)

Did you make her? (complete sentence)

D'yer Maker? (contracted sentence)

Ergo, did you have sex with that babe, because this song is just a send up of reggae music illustrated by the play on words in the title and the very non-Zeppelin music structure?

(In case you didn't already know - not trying to be the Messiah of PA) LOL

-Anything except In The Evening from In Through the Out Door
-Anything from Coda
-Any of "their" songs that they ripped off other artists, which pains me to include Stairway to Heaven.
My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want!

 except, oddly enough, if I read the original joke correctly it's much more innocuous; "Did you make her" refers to making the wife to go on vacation, not sex - -

'The wife and I went on an island holiday.'
'Ja maka?'
'No she went on her own accord.'

^Thanks Atav. I was relying on my memory of a DJ explanation from 1973. I like yours better - and it makes more sense. Wink

I'm not a big Zep fan by any stretch of the imagination but the only song listed that I heartily loathe is 'In My Time of Dying' which I find an interminable dirge.

BTW I think I'm the only critter in the universe who actually likes Hotdog Embarrassed

I love that song!

I couldn't call any songs by Zepp bad. There are a few on the list that aren't great either. Page's pick is Livin' Lovin' Maid, and I agree with him. Still a nice rock'n'roll song, though.

I've gone off you as that is one of their best songs ever,.

I like it as well - Bonzo is great on this one. Now I'm wondering why The Crunge isn't on that list.

Dyer Maker in poll position and I agree its a bad song but I've always hated the sleep inducing indulgence of Dazed and Confused

I'd vote for "I'm Gonna Crawl", but it's not on the list.

And y'all keep leaving the second apostrophe out of "D'yer Mak'er".

D'yer Mak'er.

to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

Look, I love Zeppelin but Dancing Days is just a no go. Also there are a lot of songs on that list that should not be up there.
