Do you like Led Zeppelin?
 

Pretty odd poll I know but Just curious

not me.

No.

im glad im the first to say yes, yes robert plant's voice is sometimes too much but you can't fuck with the riffs and tunes. you naturally contrary bastards!

Yes, yes I do.

yeh. i dunno, for the most part, anyway.

I do

love led zep.

a bit

i love led zeppelin one of my 10 favourite bands. I prefer hear classic rock instead of that shity indie bands like Pixies, i've never considered SY as a indie band.

In a short answer, not really, they're not really my thing. On the other hand, I think they themselves are fantastic musicians (Who can deny Page's guitar?) and I respect what they did for music.

So I'm middle of the line, but granted I rarely listen to them, that's more my dad and brothers.

gross, no

I've been listening to Led Zeppelin a bit lately. I've only got I, IV, and Remasters, so I plan to get some of the others.

I went with yes, even though I have zero desire to ever listen to them after burning them out in my teenage years. Still, a lot of really great stuff, especially III and HotH.

I voted but I'm not going to repeat my vote as a comment.

Most interesting post yet, pbrads. Youre hillarious, love you.

I cant not love led zep, I grew up with them. Theres nothing like leaning back on a rolly-stool in my brothers garage while he invents some kinda pully-thing or welds some shit or pulls some wrenches on his bike while a lost live track of led zep belts out of late nite oldies radio. His dog sits beside me and I scratch his ears and under his collar. Songs like Since I've Been Lovin' You and their other bluesy (read it as rip-off-bluesy if its suits ya) stuff, or Bron y Aur Stomp and other shakers are good for those times.

Usually when in heavy reminisce mode, it's good to put on Thats the Way or The Rain Song, stuff like that. They've got a nice mix though, honestly.

This

Now, don't get me wrong, they're a talented band, really think Jimmy Page is one of the greats (though the best thing he ever did was the unreleased Lucifer Rising soundtrack).. but their music is ... well.

Carry on.

Oh fucking hell! You get me all worked up just so you can shuffle your feet and walk off. You drive me nuts.

At least influenced by John Fahey.

i'm listening to them right now

they're just a great rock and roll band. that's it. it doesn't need to be fucking baudelaire. write what you know etc.

I've always loved the intro to "your time is gonna come" its so smack-lipped sweet. Like your own shit in a bitches face that cuts you off in a queue, to put it politely.

so easy to belt to, too.

Whoa, thanks for that. This is just Jimmy Page solo, though, who I already said is quite awesome.

But yeah this is Fahey as FUCK! Open C tuning and all!

i've had IV for years but never really got into it. I do have respect for them though. This might be one of those times where I go and actually try to listen to an album I've had for years but never got it and actually finally get it.

That sentence was awesome.

I blame lots of Led Zeppelin in my youth for making we want to play guitar solos now. I remember the first time I heard Black Dog. Blew my fucking young mind.

.... in moderation

Just listened to Immigrant Song for the first time.

Amazing track!!!!! Holy shit.

Ramble On, on of the sweetest bass lines in rock history

I like some songs on Presence, not much else. They bore me.

you should listen to the song remains the same. its one of the best songs ever

Absolutely love I and III. The odd track here and there otherwise at the right time works.

Listening to that song while playing Warcraft II is the locus of epic.

I can't believe how groovy it is. Fuck yeah. Think I'll download a couple albums. Listened to a few more non-Stairway and non-Black Dog songs on youtube and changed my vote.

Another one of those bands I've tried and tried until I cried and cried. I think, short of taking a bath in man-paste, I really can't think of a more homo-erotic experience than listening to Cock Zeppelin.

Man-paste bath while listening to Led Zeppenis.

Right after I turned 18 I tripped on shrooms in Central Park with my friend who was 15. She was an idiot and decided to snort a few lines of coke and smoke some PCP before we even got started. Then, some hippies in the park offered us acid and she took some taps without thinking twice. Needless to say, she was way too young and immature to handle her shit and wound up having a really terrifying trip and the only thing that would calm her down was to listen to Led Zeppelin on repeat on my stereo all fucking night. We only had access to one of their albums (some greatest hits collection that my mom owned) so yeah...ever since then i haven't been able to stand the Zep.

yes. theyre great. (not superb tho!)

THey are the bestand i love love love them

Find some early live shows before they started playing Stairway to Heaven, they were some great heavy blues rock.

houses of the holy is my favorite zep album, you should try that and III
