    He's pretty ****ing good, no lie. But that's nowhere near Baba O'Riley.

      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.


      You need to karaoke "Good Times, Bad Times" some day. Really makes you appreciate what a great little song it is.

        Please go see you local psychiatrist Guy. That's not healthy.

          Don't badmouth "Misty Mountain Hop". Neither of you can be considered experts on Led Zep anyway, since you've both failed to mention "When the Levee Breaks"...

            As soon as they let Led Zeppelin songs appear in Rock Band, I'm all over that ****.

              Damn. I deserve to get flagellated for that mistake.

                Rock Band: Led Zeppelin = Orgasm

                  Rock Band: The Beatles + Rock Band: Led Zeppelin = Orgasm
                  QFMFT.

                  That plus Rock Band: The Rolling Stones + Rock Band: Pink Floyd = never leaving my house ever again.




                  I also deserve to be admonished for forgetting When The Levee Breaks. An acceptable answer to the OP. Not sure I'd always put it ahead of BO, depending on my mood, but a definite contender.

                    I'd much prefer a Rock Band: Who to a Rock Band: Pink Floyd. Dark Side of the Moon and early songs like "Interstellar Overdrive", "Arnold Layne" and "See Emily Play" would be fun, but I can't imagine slogging through the interminable songs that make up the greater part of the Pink Floyd catalog.

                      oooh a led zepp thread, my kind of thing.

                      OK guy isn't entirely unhealthy. He has Kashmir on there. So he has some wits about him. Babe I'm going to leave you, perhaps one of their greatest songs (isn't that a cover though? or one of the blues ones they ripped off ). Black Dog definately needs to be on a greatest LZ song list.

                      OK my list is getting kind of disorganized they have too many songs. Let me start in order, and name a couple off each album, so I can sort them

                      1: babe I'm going to leave you (good times bad times is a good song, but not as good as babe), Dazed and Confused (landmark song), and communication breakdown- one of their heaviest

                      2. Whole lotta love (overplayed, but the vocals are great, what's not to like?), heartbreaker, and Moby Dick stand out here

                      3. immigrant song, since I've been loving you, gallows pole

                      4. black dog, battle of evermore, stairyway, going to california, when the levee breaks

                      Houses: the song remains the same, over the hills and far away, No quarter

                      phsyical: In my time of Dying (kind of underated, but I dig this tune alot), Kashmir, houses of the holy

                      Presence: Achilles Last Stand. kind of a weak album. nobody's fault but mine is pretty good though

                      in thru the out door: in the evening, all my love, I'm gonna crawl

                      on hindsite, I cannot narrow that list down. If you don't like those songs you are a freak.

                            Great song. Amazing song. Nowhere near as good as Baba O'Riley.


                            I can think of only four Stones songs that I'd ever consider: Satisfaction, Paint It Black, Sympathy For the Devil, and Gimme Shelter.
