No Quarter by a huge stretch, what with the synthesized e-piano and the various guitar effects . A brilliant track ! ------------- I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth. |

I voted 'Kashmir' but 'No Quarter' is equally as prog. I'm surprised 'Rain Song' wasn't listed.

 What, the James Brown one?I would say The Rain Song, without a doubt, followed by No Quarter. Two of these songs are old blues numbers, hardly 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. -------------

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 vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

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 |

How Many More Times must I tell you that Zep is prog-related???  ------------- 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 |

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* ------------- "We've got to get in to get out" |
