Roxie Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I picked OTHAFA, but The Ocean was a close 2nd for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadScreamingGallery Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 HOTH is one of my very favorite Zep albums - it was one of my favorites back when it was released and it remains a favorite to this day because it brings me right back to the '73 U.S. concert days. To me, the best song on the album is TSRTS. More than any other song on HOTH, TSRTS evokes such strong memories of that time, including the awe and the love I felt when I stood there and watched it being performed live. Second best: The Ocean - it comes very close to having the same effect on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ally Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 No Quarter leading into The Ocean. Great finish to a great album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danelectro59 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I had a tough time with this, but in the end it was TSRTS over The Rain Song. In the end, it was the pure energy at the start and Jimmy's guitar that sold me. Not to discount TRS. Imo, it's every bit as good, or even better, that STH.

Zepaholic Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 TSRTS because it's makes me feel so f'in ALIVE! This is a seriously difficult album to choose a best song from. You can pick a #1 if you try hard enough but everything else would be #1(a). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LedZep1969 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 toughy it would either be rain song, no quarter, or ocean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docron Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I voted for The Crunge because, although I like them all equally, I was certain this one would have the least votes and I felt sorry for it...

Rock N' Rollin' Man Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I voted for Over The Hills and Far Away although it was an extremely hard and difficult choice between OTHAFA No Quarter and TSRTS but I had to make a choice and i ended up with OTHAFA. I just love how it starts and follows through and the lyrics are wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caroselambra~ Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 This is quite a difficult album to pick a favourite from. I don't really like the tinny production on most of the tracks here...so it would have to be d'yer mak'er closely followed by over the hills. I do, however, think the SRTS version of Rain Song is brilliant caroselambra~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bga Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 The Rain Song for me, BUT I love the live versions of No Quarter more than the studio version. Same here. I love TRS the most in the studio album but in the live versions I love NQ the most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercurious Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 For me...this may be the toughest album to pick a favorite from. I went with "The Rain Song." I love the lyrics and the overall musical attitude. The closing guitar is amazing and always stops me dead in my tracks. Same here. Easily the toughest album to pick one. The guitar arrangement is so brilliant, had to go with Rain Song. It's one of Robert's best lyrics as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie29 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Sure was a hard one to pick because all the songs stand out on their own. I went for TRS just in front of NQ. IMHO their most diverse album in terms of musical styles, the only thing missing was a blues song and perhaps a pure acoustic piece. I've always thought of Physical Graffiti as an extension of Houses Of The Holy. As we all know the song HOTH appears on PG, so in effect it could be considered a companion album. I'm almost certain Walters Walk from Coda was recorded during the Stargroves HOTH sessions too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
