Christopher Lees Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I chose these 10 songs based entirely on the studio versions and disregarding any preference I have for their live renditions. 1. Since I’ve been loving you 2. Black dog 3. Stairway to heaven 4. Heartbreaker 5. Going to California 6. Good Times bad Times 7. Over the hills and far away 8. I’m gonna crawl 9. The rover 10.

Trampled live - I hear ya! I'd be tempted to sub D&C for No Quarter too - and again go with live. Of course, I could almost go 10 other songs altogether such is their depth.

Achilles Last Stand Song Remains The Same Stairway to Heaven Kashmir When the Levee Breaks. Battle of Evermore Whole Lotta Love In The Light No Quarter Over the Hills and Far Away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rover Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 My Top Ten at the moment would be mostly live songs from one of the several official live releases, but mostly from TSRTS. And, the O2 Show Kashmir IMTOD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electrophile Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 In no particular order? Since I've Been Loving You Tea For One In the Evening That's the Way When the Levee Breaks Whole Lotta Love Hey, Hey, What Can I Do Good Times, Bad Times Kashmir No Quarter I could probably fill out another list of 10 easily. In fact... Trampled Underfoot Fool In the Rain Achilles Last Stand Ten Years Gone Ramble On Heartbreaker In My Time of Dying Nobody's Fault but Mine I Can't Quit You Baby What Is and What Should Never Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1975NQ Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 In no particular order: a) Kashmir - the main riff captivated me as a little boy in the 70s (grown ups always had the radio on back then). I stopped whatever I was doing to listen. It sounded like the guitar was going one way, the drums the other. Like an invisible rubber band being pulled (the guitar pulling one end, the drums the other) and the tension created in that pull sucked my ears/brain right into the vortex. I've never heard anything like it before or since (and I have looked hard lol) b) Down by the Seaside c) When the Levee Breaks d) Traveling Riverside Blues e) Hey Hey What Can I Do f) Tea for One g) South Bound Suarez - the timing of that solo gets me every time. I always visualize Robert looking over at Jimmy as he ends the verse, and then Jimmy going into shred mode h) Four Sticks i) Battle of Evermore j) Custard Pie - this sounds like Robert and Jimmy were listening to garage rock (Kingsmen, Sonics, etc) and thought "hey we can do that!". It has that feel to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cersei Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 Excuse my ignorance, I’m fairly new to Led Zeppelin (only started listening to them like a month ago, crazy I know🙈) but I’m going to just list my favorites so far. I don’t think I can make it 10 just yet. stairway to heaven (yes very basic but it’s a beautiful song and popular for a reason) kashmir heartbreaker whole lotta love good times bad times Dazed and confused when the levee breaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 (edited) To list only ten is nigh impossible but I'll try anyway. Like Christopher Lees above, I'm going by studio version preference. In chronological order: 1. Dazed and Confused - THE Song that hooked me on the band in the first place. 2. Ramble On - Perfect representation of their light/heavy dynamic. 3. That's the Way - Sublimely gorgeous song. 4. Four Sticks - There is an otherworldly eeriness to this song that separated Led Zeppelin from the heavy blues rock horde. 5. When the Levee Breaks - Monumental groove. The soundtrack to the apocalypse. 6. The Rain Song - Challenge issued by George Harrison. Challenge accepted and handled with aplomb by the band. An evergreen classic. 7. The Rover - It's a crime this song was never given its proper due on any of the post-"Physical Graffiti" tours. 8. Kashmir - A cinematic masterpiece. The "Lawrence of Arabia" of rock. 9. Ten Years Gone - Achingly beautiful and heavy at the same time. Jimmy Page marshals his guitar army. 10. Achilles Last Stand - So many contenders for this last spot but rather than another track from "IV" or "Physical Graffiti" or "III", I had to include something from "Presence", my favourite 'in the wee hours' Led Zeppelin album.
