The Wall, one of the best albums ever.

All are great albums.

All three are significantly flawed albums in my book. Never liked the Wall. Graffiti is Zep's best album by far but that's like saying measles is better than leprosy so it's Quadrophenia for me.

Quadrophenia, no contest

The Wall is quite good too, but it requires a bigger immersion into the music.



As for Graffiti, it's just a collection of leftovers and scraping the bottom of drawers, and nothing good, outside of Kashmir and In The Light.
I don't even understand what PG is doing in this list, as it's not even a concept album: it would've been much better to have placed The Lamb or the awful TFTO instead.

The Wall, and only because of Comfortably Numb.

Three brilliant albums. I'll go for Quadrophenia.

Graffiti, the only Zeppelin album that I own. Bought it for In The Light. Kashmir is probably the most annoying rock song ever to be etched into vinyl. Makes my ears hurt.

Quadrophenia, hands-down. Probably my favorite rock album of all time.

I'd agree if you'd say that about Coda. PG is a mixed bag but there's a lot of great stuff in it and it's my pick here.

3- The Wall
Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

Poor old Graffiti. It's an album experience not just a collection of songs. Things like Boogie With Stu add to the character of the album. They vary the pace and give this Masterwork the colour and depth it deserves.

Coda went from a good album to, now, a fascinating view with the expanded version. Bit much stretching it out over 3 CDs as each one is still the same length as the original album.

Just for the um, record Quadrophenia and The Wall are also masterpieces. Wouldn't be without any of them.
