Both top five for me. But "Achilles" is top one, so I'll painfully have to vote out "Hey Hey What Can I Do" in round one.

Trampled Under Foot over Hey Hey What Can I Do? Kevin Davis, I hardly knew ye.


Wait, I'm confused. I'd take "Hey Hey" over "Trampled." But I'd take "Achilles" over them both. All three are top fivers for me.

Oh my bad. Still, Trampled is not top tier Zeppelin.

It clearly just hasn't clicked for you yet. Once it does, there's no turning back.

It's a great song, it's just not on the same level as say When The Levee Breaks or Your Time is Gonna Come.

I love Levee, personally in my top 5, but it is a cover so I can't rank it over some of the original tunes in a tourney. Idk. Maybe I can.

You can't do that with Zeppelin or you lose all the best stuff.

I don't like that Ten Years Gone will likely face WTLB in round 2. In my mind, that's a semi-final.

For the majority of my life I have not liked Zeppelin's music, I'll be using this tournament to see if my tastes in music have matured.
Probably not. :?

I think we may just do 4 songs a day for the first two rounds, to give people a chance to (re)familiarize themselves and not rush the conversations.

Thanks stip. That will certainly help me participate.

I'll draft a team if there's still a spot open.

In My Time Of Dying wins, already
