FAVORITE LED ZEPPELIN RIFFS

[RJhog]

Jimmy Page gave us a lot of great riffs, how about a favorites list, especially from all of you guitar players. Mine are:

Living Loving Maid
Heartbreaker
Whole Lotta Love
Immigrant Song
Black Dog
Houses Of The Holy
Trampled Under Foot
Nobody's Fault But Mine

[Gordon Williams]

I think you've got most of the best covered, although I would add "Good Times, Bad Times", and the riff after the slow blues type intro for "Ramble On". But my number 1 Zep riff would have to be "The Wanton Song". The riff is killer, but so is the quick break, where the band stops, and Jimmy does a "fade in", on a power chord, just using his volumn knob, and maybe even some kind of volumn pedal? The tone and power of that fade in is simply amazing, even now.

On a side note, can it get much better than the double whammy of "Heartbreaker/Living Loving Maid", back to back with no break between? And even though its a slower riff/song, how about the great guitar and vocal melody of "Ten Years Gone"?

Man, just talking about this makes me want to go listen to a bunch of Zep!!

[Gordon Williams]

Oh, oh, oh, oh...wait!! How can we forget "The Ocean"?

[Scott]

Ive always been partial to 'In the Evening' and 'Over the Hills and Far Away', although the latter being acoustic one may argue of the riffness therin. :-)

[Peter Jones]

oh ...you left out so many of the better riffs.

Bring It On Home
Out On The Tiles
Communication Breakdown
Kashmir
Moby Dick
How Many More Times
Dazed and Confused.

just to name a few
