Nulla Lex Ink. Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Ugh, this is like asking a parent their favorite children for me. That below list is my best but probably not accurate. The real answer is- "all of them."1. Stairway to Heaven2. Achilles Last Stand3. Kashmir4. 10 Years Gone5. Whole Lotta Love6. No Quarter7. Since I've Been Loving You8. The Rover9. When The Levee Breaks10. Babe, I'm Gonna Leave YouI'm actually considering getting into Led Zeppelin. I know this might sound like blasphemy, but I've only heard two of their songs: "Stairway to Heaven" and one other I can't recall the name of. From your "like a parent picking a favorite child comment," I take it you're the guy to ask about that, haha. What would you recommend somebody start with?Oh boy, yes. Led Zeppelin is my favorite band and that will never, ever change. About 10 years ago I started playing guitar, my mom's love for the band and my dad's picking to Babe I'm Gonna Leave You and Stairway got me wanting to start. I saw a copy of "Early Days- Latter Days" (Their old greatest hits) at Best Buy and I started with that.They have a newer greatest hits called "Mothership" and I think that would be a good start. Zeppelin is a band best experienced by their individual albums but since you only know two songs I think the greatest hits package is the way to go at the very start. Pick up or download "Mothership" and their first live album, "The Song Remains the Same" at the same time sort of as companions to one another. Led Zeppelin was an entirely different band in a live setting.I feel as though that is a good introduction and then from there it is a good idea to get into their individual albums, the DVD, and the other live albums. If you really like them after exploring all of that then there is a fantastic world of bootlegs to look into.1. The Rain Song (I just love it)2. Trampled Underfoot live (I love live versions of this when Page goes into hyper mode)3. Fool in the rain (i love Plant's lyrics on this one)4. Going to California (best zep acoustic track imo)5. Ten Years Gone (studio or live, I love this song)6. Bron Yur Aur stomp (I always get down to it)7. The Ocean (best of zep's riff rock imo)8. Good times bad times (I love the way it hits you)9. Traveling Riverside Blues (I love what they did with Robert Johnson's song, took it to new heights).10. How Many More Times live (I especially love the live performance of this one from the late 60's.)HM: Stairway live, Kashmir live, Whole lotta love live (the htwww version is fucking epic. I love the in between songs they do in it also), Since I've been loving you live, In the light, No quarter live (I have 30 min versions of this one that are fucking great. JPJ keyboard solos plus I love the Jones/Page interplay on it).For me Zep is entirely different live.No Quarter from LA in 1977, Kashmir from the O2 in 2007, Dazed and Confused and Stairway from the 1975 Earl's Court shows, and Whole Lotta Love from BBC Sessions are my current favorites. Like, how can a band ever top those performances live?Alright, they have both on Spotify so I'll probably check into that tonight. For some reason I have a really hard time listening to entire albums in one sitting, but I can do greatest hits and live albums. It's weird, but there it is. I'll probably give those a listen, then see what albums the songs I particularly liked were on, and then go from there. Thanks for the advice!

(When I saw you had posted, I thought I would see a cheeky list of Willie Dixon songs.)As I've said before, they're not like...awful as unlistenable awful, they ain't U2 awful, they've got some good songs (although i must admit i struggled to compile a list of ten) they're just not, in my opinion, anywhere near deserving of the hallowed space that they occupy in the hearts and minds of fans and the general music community. Don't mean they ain't made some good songs cuz they have. And i know you think so deep down too I mean, you're an ex-fan, surely to fuck there must be at least a handful of songs of theirs that you remember why you liked.I wouldn't put them anywhere near my top ten of anything though. Nowhere near. Or even top 40. Edited June 12, 2014 by sugaraylen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
