BonzoJesus Posted November 26, 2016 Even though it is a bit overrated, probably Stairway to Heaven. It sort of just sums up everything they do. It's got slower, some heavy guitar, and some in the middle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZepHead315 Posted November 27, 2016 Depends on the person of course. If they're into prog, probably the live version of No Quarter from TSRTS. If they're into hard rock/metal, Achilles Last Stand. If they're into soft rock or ballads, The Rain Song. If they're into folk, probably That's the Way. If they just want straight up rock, Stairway to Heaven, as cliched as it is.

craigled Posted December 10, 2016 Kashmir is played at a few Rugby League matches. I live in a Rugby Town. Or Stairway because it just melts everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not my favourite Zep tune (that status is reserved for ten years gone)....but it is amazing. Not trying to be arsey, but just surprised that's all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally, I would always opt for Kashmir if I had to pick just one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dovahkiin Posted September 22, 2017 Good times bad times, Kashmir or Stairway. It mostly depends on what kind of music the person likes. I've known friends who hear something like Whole lotta love or immigrant song and are like "what the hell is that?". But i did get a couple of my friends into led zeppelin after they heard me listening to stairway to heaven and good times bad times Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Klape Posted September 23, 2017 If it's someone who like the blues, then it will be Since I've been loving you, the voice, guitar, piano, drums and bass are all perfect. If it's someone who like to "move" then something a bit more straight forward like Rock and roll. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EaglesOfOneNest Posted September 27, 2017 I would never be able to name just one song to introduce someone to Zep because their music is so diverse! I would do an overview, picking a variety that showcased their versatility Ramble On Good Times, Bad Times Ten Years Gone In the Light Fool in the Rain Your Time is Gonna Come In My Time of Dying Trampled Underfoot Misty Mountain Hop I realize that's quite a few songs, but I really think they defy categorization!
