      Well, just off of Who's Next...

      1. Won't Get Fooled Again
      2. Love Ain't For Keeping
      3. Bargain

      And "Who Are You" is the second-best of the CSI themes, after "Won't Get Fooled Again".

      3. South Bound Saurez
      9. Carouselambra


      I hate you.

        Why? Because I'm right? Or because you now want to listen to those songs and you don;t have them
        You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.

          I've had them for a long time and have been avoiding listening to them for nearly as long.

            These are acceptable.

            The Lemon Song
            South Bound Saurez
            Good Times Bad Times
            What is and Never Should Be
            Ten Years Gone
            Carouselambra



            No.



            Babe I'm gonna Leave You
            Black Dog


            I admit to giving these some thought, but no, not quite.

                Yes.

                2. Love Ain't For Keeping
                3. Bargain


                No. I would have at least given Behind Blue Eyes some consideration. Water is clearly the fourth-best song on the album.

                And "Who Are You" is the second-best of the CSI themes, after "Won't Get Fooled Again".


                Mmmm. I will allow for that possibility. I don't agree, but I think that is not an unreasonable opinion.

                  Stairway To Heaven has been played to death. I hate it now.

                    I quite like that song. But it's not in the upper echelon of Led Zeppelin.

                      6 more Who songs better than Baba O'Riley...

                      1. The Punk and the Godfather
                      2. Substitute
                      3. The Seeker
                      4. I Can See For Miles
                      5. Pinball Wizard
                      6. My Generation

                      I would have at least given Behind Blue Eyes some consideration.


                      I was going to list it, but I didn't think ballads were rocking enough to qualify. Probably my favorite song on Who's Next.

                      But it's not in the upper echelon of Led Zeppelin.


                      I disagree.

                        All great songs, but I'd take Behind Blue Eyes, Love Reign O'er Me, and Boris the Spider ahead of all them.


                        EDIT: Squeezebox, too.

                          Black Dog and BIGLY own BO. Maybe not My generation or Who are You though.

                            I disagree.

                            When I think of the very greatest Zeppelin songs, I think Kashmir, Stairway, Rock and Roll, Black Dog, Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, D'yer Maker, Fool In The Rain, Misty Mountain Hop, long before I even consider Good Times, Bad Times.

                            Hey, it's a fun trip to get there, but it's a long one.
