One of my favourite LZ tunes - proggie in the sense of  being approx 2 parts heavy blues rock and  half a part Indian. Interestingly a tune that stands considerable rearrangement , as on the 1 part rock/1 part Egyptian Arabic with Plant and Page's No Quarter version, or 100% jazz funk by the (former RTF drummer) Lenny White's, late 90's jazz funk deconstruct on his Edge album (to me, this just wins over the No Quarter version). There is a rather strange (but interesting), new avante jazz version on a Joshua Roseman album.

ALL OF MY LOVE IS VERY PROG

oops, forgot about that one...

i think it may even be my fave Zep track, its so powerfull and moving. THat whole album has an amazing sound unlike any other Zeppelin, it was more of a "Jonesy" album. but seriously, john Paul Jones' keyboard and classical guitar solos in that song blow me away. Its also evidence that Robert Plant was one of the most powerfull singers around, even when he was starting to lose his voice at this time. You can really tell the group was very emotionally involved on this track.

I'd have to agree with you on your choices. Out of the album versions of songs, I'd say that Achille's Last Stand is the most prog> (MY KEYBOARD JUST BECAME MESSED UP< SO EXCUSE THE REST OF THIS MESSAGE)> ALL OF MY LOVE IS VERY PROG> ALL OF "SONG REMAINS THE SAME" IS FABULOUS>>> YEAH!

Instead of arguing about the Zep and weather or not they are prog, lets just have this thread to talk about our love for the songs that are prog. Its one's opinion if they consider Zeppelin prog and lets just leave it at that...

My fave Prog Zep would be:

Achilles Last Stand

Battle Of Evermore

Kashmir

No Quarter (Song Remains THe Same version)

Dazed And Confused (Song Remains The Same Version) I think that this version is accualy there most prog they ever showed. Especially their amazing rendition of Scott Mckenzie's "San Fransisco" (for all you guitar players out there, the prelude to that section is acuaally the riff from the "I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way..." section from "Achilles Last Stand" slowed down, which sounds amazing. The Bow solo also is also in my opinion one of the greatest moments in music history!
