I finally bought this album last week thanks to this poll. This is loads better than Presence! I'd go with 'Carouselambra' for those huge, crashing chords in the middle section.

In the Evening here. Fool in the Rain is pretty much the only Zep song I'll switch off if it comes on the radio.

Here's another vote for "All of My Love."
(Oh wow, look, when I use a public library PC that isn't running an eight year old browser, I can see the little "Suggest Ban Permalink" which I otherwise keep accidentally clicking on since it's invisible in IE 6.0.)

xxpost - I have that same problem! And it's fortunate that we're required to click twice to confirm, otherwise I'd have accidentally suggest-banned many undeserving folks. (Never SB'd anyone and never will.)

"all my love" was robbedfor many hours and days that pass ever soon the tides have caused the flames to dim: at last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom -- is this to end or just begin?

I hate that weak synth sound on "Carouselambra" and the riff sounds like background music from an old ABC Wide World of Sports episode.

I rate Bonzo's shuffle on "South Bound Saurez" higher than the "Fool In The Rain", the one that everyone always talks about. He plays so perfectly behind the pocket, total effortless propulsion of the boogiewoogie rockabilly swing.
And in spite of Page's rhythm parts being so melodic and smooth, the solo is pretty noisy and abrasive.
I read somewhere that this was the 2nd to last song they ever recorded ("Wearing & Tearing" being the last).
Great underrated deep cut.
