Congratulations to Led Zeppelin, who won the first round of our poll for this upcoming Episode.

I just want to note for the record that I have never listened to any Led Zeppelin album cover to cover. I have heard several songs throughout the years, but I'm largely unfamiliar with their discography and deep cuts.

I have listed the first five of their albums as the candidates for this episode. We'll run the poll through January 28. Happy voting!

For someone not familiar with the Led Zep catalog, HoH is a great choice. It is thoroughly accessible, representative of the band's style and talent, with a freshness undiminished to this day.

I’d go for Physical Graffiti as it’s a testament to how they went beyond a mere rock band

While any Led Zeppelin is great, HoH is my favorite album. When I first bought it, I still remember the anticipation while dropping the needle. From the first note till the end - pure love. Every reason I listen to music is in this one.

@Eusebio R-Z, So I can change my vote continuously right up to the wire.I suppose this is how polls work in this kind of thing. Can you tell I'm not a fan of "social media"?

But honestly for extended play you should really do Physical Graffiti. Double album.

I love Houses of the Holy, however, I don’t think that for a first experience that should be the pick. I understand why people pick it, but when ‘Houses’ was released Led Zep was already, well, Led Zep. That’s not the album that defined Led Zep. If you have never heard an entire Led Zep work, you really should experience Lez Zep I, and than move on to any other album. That’s of course just my humble point of view.

Physical Graffiti will probably win next time.

I'd love to hear Doug's take on the Spirit - Taurus vs. Zeppelin - Stairway plagiarism lawsuit

If you’re going to do Houses of the Holy, I would suggest doing the live versions of the Rain Song and No Quarter from The Song Remains the same. Both are great versions

When will the video be uploaded?
