    In this poll you get to answer two questions:

    1) Which was Zep's best period, the first 4 albums or the last 4 albums?
    2) Which are your favorite back-to-back albums by them?

    So please make 2 choices.

    Favorite period. I-IV

    HOTH/PG for back to back. III-IV right there also.

    This could have been my post. Voted the samen. But find it hard to decide back to back. Could have been anyone from the first four as well. I have a soft spot for II.

    You didn't have a choice of I and IV. I thought II was a step down from one, III I'm not that familiar with, but was surprised that it was so good.

    Great poll idea! ;)

    I picked two options: the first four albums and IV/HOTH back-to-back.

    Their best period, for me, is the first four albums BUT my favorite album is HOTH. Favorite Back to Back, II-III, It was with these two albums-one following the other-that they showed they were much more than than a blues bases hard rock band. Not that there was anything wrong with *that* but it was very interesting to see at that time that they were interested in exploring other areas (both in terms of songwriting and studio recording).

    I think they really defined their sound in the middle period - III through PG.

    Last 4, despite ITTOD. Throw ITTOD down the well, and HOTH to Presence is still vastly superior to the first 4. Ideal period would be IV to Presence.

    Back to back = HOTH/PG, the two greatest albums ever recorded.

    OP didn't ask for your two favorite albums, he asked for your favorite back-to-back albums.

    I realized that after I wrote what I wrote. I would vote for only Led I as the favorite...there are no back to back ones for me.

    Agreed, though I'm a casual Zeppelin at best.

  20. It's a toss up for me from II -> III and HotH -> PG.

    The run from I->IV is incredible! My favorite band... who am I kidding? I love them all.

    First four. Self-explanatory.

    2nd pick has too many variables for a clear winner, but I went with III-IV. Woulda gone for IV-HOTH if somehow D'yer Maker would magically disappear. The only Zep tune I actively dislike.
