When John Bonham died and Led Zeppelin quit as a group, hard rock (what was left of it) turned into heavy metal and the crappy big hair bands of the 1980's.
From Ted Nugent and Aerosmith to four-seven bad guitarist playing rhythm licks very loud.
I still like to pull out some Zeppelin when I'm in the mood for good old rock and roll. Jimmy Page is awesome. My favorites range from the old time blues numbers off their first album along with those on III to "Nobody's Fault But Mine" and "Achilles Last Stand" off of Presence. Phyiscal Graffiti is just sublime.

I really love the blue inspired stuff with the heavy baseline. The more mellow "California sound" songs fall far short of the bluesy songs.

Zeppelin III was always my favorite-"Thats the way" and "Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp". Physical Grafitti is a close second..
