I know. But I also took 3 from 1968 and did you a solid including Electric Ladyland.

It wasn't meant as a criticism. Its just a bad draw. Led is numero uno here and this is probably their most known album.

I have my reasons.

Hot take. Stairway to Heaven is overrated. When The Levee Breaks is the best song on IV.

Voodoo Child is the best song among these two albums.

Love when the levee breaks and misty mountain hop

I don't think stairway is over rated as much as massively over played

I've always felt it wasn't Stairway's fault that it got massively over played. It doesn't take away from the brilliance of the song for that moment of time. I just skip over it is all.

There's any number of great songs like Free Bird or Hotel California that don't deserve their fate.

Assume you mean the (slight return) album closer, and I totally agree. His cover of watch tower would be my #2, then When the Levee Breaks.

Hendrix gets short changed here almost as bad as The Beatles and Neil Young.

Levee is way better than Stairway to Heaven. It’s not even close for me.
