    considering i can say hands down this is my favorite band and regret being too young to enjoy a true led zeppelin concert...

    i cant pick just one

    traveling riverside blues
    battle of evermore
    achilles last stand
    when the levee breaks
    in my time of dying
    and of course moby dick for the drum solo and the unmistakable guitar

    there is always a led zeppelin cd close to my cd player, always.

    some cheap free sony speakers
    psw125
    denon 1610
    3.1 channel because i hate cables ran across the living room like that

    No way I could pick just one...........not from my favorite band of all-time!!

    1) Communication B-down
    2) Good Times Bad Times
    3) In My Time of Dying
    4) Going to California
    5) Achilles Last Stand
    6) Wearing and Tearing

    Live version's of Whole Lotta Love were epic medley's that just completely blow me away!!!!!!

    Live versions of Killing Floor or As Long As I Have You were psychedelic blues jams!!

    .........I could go on, sorry can't just pick one

    H9

    For live versions I absolutely would pick The Song Remains the Same and The Rain Song from the movie. Fantastic versions of these songs! Or how about the Earls Court versions of Dazed and Confused and No Quarter?! Phenominal!

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Meh, TSRTS (the album) is mediocre at best. A hodge podge of editing in the actual song. The Rain song is nice though. Earls Court is much better material probably among the best "Stairway to Heaven" version I've heard (and I've heard a lot of them). The solo is simply amazing. IMHO.

    True, there are many edits on all of the songs on TSRTS. But, those two (Song and Rain Song) still stand out as my favorite live versions I have heard. Maybe it's cheating though because they are edited together.

    Which night of Earls Court are you talking about for "Stairway" Brock?

    One of my favorites is Carouselambra. If you haven't heard this one or haven't for a while, take a listen to it.

    Tough to pick just one...."Over The Hills And Far Away" followed closely by Tangerine and Going To California.

    Man, listening to Zeppelin brings back a rush of memories from the 70's, girls, partying, hanging out in the basement listening to Zeppelin with optional black light on, lazying out on bean bag chairs with your chic in your arms and your best friends all around you. Didn't accomplish much back then, but the friends were real and the music was the best.

    I have all the nights on cd and two of the nights on DVD. but the official version on the DVD is about in the top 3. I have a bootleg of the first night they played it in Ireland before the album was released and the crowds reaction is indifferent. They clap (tentatively) and with respect but no one had heard the song before. Sort of surreal for a Zep concert.

    What is and What Should Never Be is pretty fantastic, but if I had to pick just one track it would be all of Physical Graffiti. (that counts, doesn't it?)
