100% in agreement. The Rain Song and No Quarter are far superior on the live album.

Oops, misunderstood the topic line. I thought it was to ask if Led Zep were indulgentBig%20smile.     Which they were, in a mostly good way ( we won't stray into the morals wide of things)

Or maybe it's the sound the pick-up system of his record player makes when coming off the record?

Houses Of The Holy, not because it's the proggiest, but because it's got "The Rain Song" and "Over The Hills And Far Away."

Light the Fire? IV. Best of the three (IMO)? Physicall Graffiti. But I love all Zep albums, even "In Through the Out Door", that is very poppy and with some uninspered songs.
 
Ah - I like the comment about their first album. Man, what a shock! It was my first Zep album and I can feel til today the sensation of fear and joy of listening my first real heavy album!

I voted for 'Houses..' but I agree the live versions are much better, especially 'No Quater' which is a masterpiece.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Houses here.  I actually find that Misty Mountain Hop and Four Sticks nearly ruin IV for me.

i still play IV and Houses regularly, Graffiti occasionally, must have heard them 10,000 times but they all still give me a buzz, not bad after 35  odd years!. i recently overheard a conversation in a record shop about Zeppelin - one guy said  

 "i've never bothered with them dinosaur bands - heard one you've heard 'em all....." 
 
i was so  astounded i said nothing - Angry

That was probably best, what is there to say really? Conversley, I once heard two guys discussing Zep, "They were really the kings.." one of them said. Pleased, I too said nothing.

I love all of them, anyway we're talking about prog, and "Houses Of The Holy" is the closest to this genre, hell, songs like "No Quarter", "Over the hills and far away" and "The Rain Song" are Zeppelin-Filtered prog.

"No Quarter" is their most prog IMO. The guitar is cosmic, like the keyboards.

Physical Graffiti was my least favorite LZ album at the time I bought it ...  Mebbe because reviewers were comparing it (mostly unfavorably) to Exile on Main St., or because I was expecting another "Over the Hills" or "The Ocean", or because Plant's voice had dropped an octave.  The folkie-countryish numbers seemed lightweight and superfluous, and "Trampled Under Foot" was just the latest DIsco Sell Out. And I absolutely hated "Kashmir".  Yet unlike Exile, a solid but rather homogeneous set, PG continues to grow on me precisely because of the eclectic assortment. I rate it even above IV.

strangely enough a lot of Zeppelin "fans" i knew felt let down by LZ III - they were expecting another LZ II unfortunately, but i was expecting - another twist in the LZ tail! Wink

what I loved about lll was its psychedelic flavor, some of their strangest music; Friends, Celebration Day, BronYAur Stomp, Hats Off..

lV is the one that doesn't hold up, imo.. simple, even adolescent. 'Out Door' is world-class and 'Coda' is a blast. Best albums ll, lll, PG, Presence, ITtOD, and nothing beats those chords that open the first record... electrifying.
