Mention the year if you wish.

BEST: 1- Moby Dick , 1973 - 1975

2- TSRTS , 1973

3-For Your Life, 2007

4-Kashmir ,1975, 1979, 2007

5-No Quarter , 1973

NOT IN ORDER

WORST: I never really liked dazed and confused live. I only like the solo but I never liked the song as a whole. Don't ask why.

I have the Brussels 1/12/75 show and Levee isn't that good either. Plant's voice and Page's broken finger don't help.

From What I've heard..and off the top of my head

Best:

Dazed and Confused 3/16/73

Heartbreaker 9/4/70

Moby Dick 7/27/73

The Ocean 7/29/73

Tangerine 9/29/71

Achilles Last Stand 6/21/80

The Song Remains the Same 6/21/77

I Can't Quit You Baby 1/9/70

Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp 6/25/72

Whole Lotta Love w/ Medley 6/27/72

Communication Breakdown 10/10/69

Stairway to Heaven (several before 75. Just recently heard the Victoria Theatre version. Best solo by Page from 80)

Best live songs I've heard were:

Stairway to Heaven - June 3, 1973

The Ocean - June 3, 1973

Heartbreaker - June 3, 1973

Whole Lotta Love - June 3, 1973.

To be honest this to me was one of their finest performances ever. Wish they would release this show in its entirety if LZ even has it.

Worst song ever for me:

Hot Dog - 1980 (any version) just my opinion of course.

Favorites anytime: "No Quarter", "Thank You", "Thats The Way", "The Rain Song", "The Ocean", "Sick Again", & "IMTOD"

Least favorites: Jimmys Bow solo 77', "WTLB", "Kashmir", "MMH", "In The Evening", & any "D&C" over 12 minutes, I just wont listen to it.

Dude, your missing out on some kick ass Zep if you dont listen to any Dazed over 12 minutes..your loss frankly, or ADD....

In the Evening never seemed right live. It seemed like the pacing was always off when they played it. I would say the same for Hot Dog but that never really fit with Zeppelin. That song was meant more to show their humor like D'yer Mak'er and probably shouldn't have been played live.

Best live songs were Stairway, Dazed, Moby Dick/Drum Solo, Black Dog, Since I've Been Loving You, and Heartbreaker. I'm sure I forgot some.

Best: No Quarter 73-75

Worst: In the Evening

Funny about my choices... I absolutely hate the studio version of NQ, but the live versions always seem to be awesome (though they started getting a little too damn long). As for In the Evening, I love the studio version of this song, but every live version I've heard of it sounds hollow.
