Judging by your picture Cristi, I'm guessing your favourite DP album would be 'Furball'? Tongue

Yes, also Purrfect Strangers and Purrpendicular Tongue

Prefer Zep over DP most of the time. Here's no exception. 
New album!

Both amazing but No Quarter is a huge favorite.

Child in Time for me.  I know it's heresy to say but No Quarter has always bored me to tears...especially the version I endured at LZ's last US concert 7/24/77 Wink

You tell me how many bands covered respectively No Quarter and the other song as well - there you have the answer, kiddo !

(Now, truly, I'm always partial to ol' Zep - it's even irrational)

Not an easy decision here. In terms of studio version, "Child in Time" is better. However, as Squonk19 already pointed out, the live version of "No Quarter" is phenomenal - John Paul Jones' finest hour. And, as cheesy as it may sound, I love the sequence that accompanies the song in the Song Remains the Same movie.

Only the dodgy haircut on The Song Remains the Same film gives me doubts, but not enough! 😂

Yeah the pageboy was not great.
