Led Zeppelin started a three-week run at No.1 on the US album chart with their fifth album Houses Of The Holy, May 12, 1973. Favorite track?

The Ocean might be the most popular but,

No Quarter is my favorite.

One of the more pervy album covers ever. I was a card carrying consumer of Playboy at 11 years of age when it was released and wondered at the time why they put a bunch of naked little girls on the cover.

The Rain Song. Page's response to George Harrison claiming that LZ didn't do ballads, the first two chords are an "homage" to Something. JPJ's mellotron is gold on this track.

Five songs got me asking who that band was when I was 12. One was D'yer Mak'er. Simple, silly, but man I loved it!

Really unbelievable how it's still relevant today. That would be akin to a large chunk of the population in the 1980's still vibing to pre-war music.

Great album ! My favorite on that album is Over the Hills and Far Away. Great guitar work throughout the album.

I have a strange fascination with "The Crunge", I think that may be my favorite

But there are a ton of good songs on that album.

I remember very well buying this at the TG&Y and rushing home to playing on my portable Magnavox stereo
