My vote goes to 'Rain Song' Zep made so much great music. 'Achilles Last Stand' and 'No Quater' would be my second and third choices respectivly. ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

Yep, you can count on me to jump in on any Led Zep discussion. A great band, and always a pleasure to discuss. You can also rely on me to repeat myself time and time again..

| Many great songs here. I voted for Achilles Last Stand, but Kashmir, No Quarter and Stairway to Heaven are about equally good. |

OK, this is written with a lot of respect towards you, but....The Rain Song as best Led Zep song !?!Is it because of the obvious prog elements or is it something else ? Imho songs like When the Levee breaks, How many more times or Dazed and Confused have a lot more impact and are clearly more progressive then compared to what was made in the same time period. Take this provocation as a jest and nothing more.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH! !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tony, this poll is evil! The choice is almost impossible - I voted for When The Levee Breaks because Robert Plant performed it so well at last year's WOMAD festival, but Kashmir, Immigrant Song, Rock and Roll, Battle of Evermore, Bron Yr Aur Stomp, Rain Song, Gallows Pole and just about everything else up to Physical Graffitti would come a close second. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...'

You guys are going to beat me up for this but... ...I can't stand Led Zep. *braces himself for the punches* It seems like shallow drinking music to me, and the attitude of the band destroys any respect I can form for their music. They passed on Woodstock '69 because they got offered a higher-paying gig. Hypocritical. *still waiting to get struck down* |

 Definetely, this is such a good song. I think I'm going to go listen to it right now. |

Perhaps Kashmir is their best song, but I have a special love for "Dazed and Confused". Both Page's and Plant's interpretations are so emotional. |

Gallows Pole from III, although there are way too many great songs to choose just one fave. Hey Hey What Can I Do is also very good. ------------- David - Never doubt in the dark that which you believe to be true in the light. http://www.myspace.com/aardvarktxusa - Instrumental rock http://www.soundclick.com/aardvarktxusa |

Hello fellow Dutchman! Tough question but the excellent build-up, blend of acoustic guitar, flute-mellotron, warm vocals and the exciting guitar solo on the Gibson twin-neck is decisive! But I love Babe, I'm gonna leave you (compelling bluesy atmosphere), Kashmir (great violin overdubs) and Rain Song (Mellotron!). Led Zep should be included |
