Poll question: Favorite Led Zep Track?
I'm listening to "You Shook Me" right now, and it kicks major ass.
But there's others for different moods

1. I laughed my ass off in Ocean's 12
when Linus (Matt Damon) quotes the opening of Kashmir. Which if your wondering is theif speak for "your neice is a dirty whore". At least that is what I understand from the movie.

I also was the only one of my friends to immediately know what he was saying.

4. Huh?
"Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream" means "your niece is a dirty whore?"

12. I don't see a connection either

2. I love "Gallows Pole"
the tune and the beat....but All those songs kick ass thats for sure.
Oh it brings me back to that time. A few summers. Another one I love is Houses of the Holy. Or maybe I've got the wrong name there.

8. Gotta be Dazed And Confused
Too many electric guitar innovations to ignore, including tone created with vintage instruments and electronics, replacement of the plectrum medium, integration and trade off of instrumentation, tempo change, space-like expansion of the basic blues theme, perfect use of dynamics, correlation between lyrics and sounds, and combined with excellent musicianship that captures pure emotion. I could go on and on. It is the consummate blues rock masterpiece.

14. Since I've Been Loving You
Page finally sounds like a real blues guitarist instead of a bizarre parody (like on the first 2 albums).

'Led Zeppelin III' is underrated. "Tangerine" has always been a favorite, and I was extremely pleased with Cameron Crowe's use of it in "Almost Famous".

Must add "No Quarter" and "The Rain Song" from 'Houses of the Holy', my other favorite Zep album.

15. No Quarter, preferably the drawn out live version....
on the Song Remains the same. Jimmy Page blows everybody away. If you've never heard it before, it's worth the trouble to find it.

16. A couple of others to mention....
Edited on Sat Dec-11-04 02:10 AM by Hailtothechimp
Bring it on Home from LZ II. I love the way it starts slow and blusey, rocks in the middle, and ends up slow and blusey at the end.

Stairway. It hasn't become what it is because it sucks. Certainly it's been overplayed, but I'll never turn the station when it comes on.

D'yer Maker from Houses of the Holy. To think it was the first reggae song I (and many others) ever heard. Amazing.

18. Kashmir fans. Jeebus.
Their best song is Stairway. My favorite, though, is All My Love, with Ramble On and almost anything off of Physical Graffitti close behind.
