I am really enjoying these guys at the moment and want to get a vote on poll of these three albums ONLY. Don't share opinions on the others, this is not your pollTongue

Physical Grafitti for its' very varied sound palette. That & having heard the other so often that their specialness is dulled.

There is something beautiful about "Houses of the Holy".To me this record is different then the others.I guess you could say that too about "Physical Graffiti",and i like it a lot too,but "Houses..." is more intimate if that makes any sense at all.Confused

All of them light the fire man. Every Zep album does it for me, but Houses is my favorite.

The music on Houses is best on the live 'Song Remains the Same'-- but Physical Graffiti wins here.

Everyone here is bound to vote Houses of the Holy, it's quite progressive next to the likes of IV. Though I must say, progressive rock is not what Led Zeppelin did the best, their live takes and albums I, II, and IV are my favorite material.
 
 
So IV.

My vote goes to IV, one of the main reasons is that this got me into Led Zeppelin, and of course that is their best in my opinion.

Zeppelin's last album, IV.

Last Zeppelin album? It's their fourth, but not their last.

The Rain Song remains one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.......  HOTH hands down.

I have to buck the trend here & say Houses Of The Holy is probably my least favorite album by LZ - I agree with Atavachron "The music on Houses is best on the live 'Song Remains the Same'".

For me, from the three listed, I'd have to go with Physical Graffiti; in fact, this is probably my favorite all-round LZ album (marginally ahead of III)- such a variety of styles, all topped off with 'Kashmir'.
