heymisterk Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 When Zeppelin fans talk about their favorite Zep album, it is almost never Led Zeppelin III. I don't understand why. To me, it's the quintessential Zep album: you have the monster riffs of "Immigrant Song" and "Out on the Tiles" and Page's stellar acoustic work - and alternate tunings - of "That's the Way" and "Bron Y Aur Stomp". "Celebration Day"'s frantic guitar work and great production make it an overlooked classic, much like the album it comes from. And great album cover art to boot! Thoughts?

Zep III is my favorite while Presence is my second. I always preferred they're side B music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCI Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I love Presence too and that album hardly ever gets any praise. It's one of my favorites to listen to while lying on the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lespaul339 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 My favorite Zeppelin albums are Led Zep 1 & 2, Houses Of the Holy, and Physical Graffiti. I like almost all of their stuff, but those are my favorite ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Since I've Been Loving You off Zep III is about my all-time favorite Zep tune. It was apparently recorded "live" in the studio except for the solo was overdubbed. Listen close and you can hear Bonhams bass pedal squeeking, that's how pure the recording is. You can almost hear Page physically turn up the volume of his guitar to get more "umph" at the beggining too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heymisterk Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 Amen my brother! :) Zep III is my favorite while Presence is my second. I always preferred they're side B music. Me too. "Immigrant Song" is probably my least favorite song on the album. I really like the acoustic work' date=' but heaven forbid classic rock radio every play "That's The Way" instead of "Stairway"!
