Confession time............ I am not familiar with either record.
Led Zeppelin is not my kind of music.
So it has to be Fortunate son.
Robert Plant never did it for me, Rod Stewart does, surprised he isn't in my top ten.

Would've voted for Bad Finger and will vote for Led Zep
And if you didnt catch it at the time....
Heart - Stairway to Heaven Led Zeppelin - Kennedy Center Honors - YouTube
A cover that bought a tear to Robert Plant, mine too if I'm to be honest. I've not before seen an artist or band give a standing ovation to others doing a cover of their most famous track. Its worth a watch, even if you're not a LZ fan

I had a hyperlink in the text, the word "this" should be green and clickable. It points to Robert Plant - The Battle Of Evermore if you can't locate it with your browser.

I counted 2-4
Led Zep on this one.
CCR-Fortunate son, Love that song
I could never vote against Led Zeppelin. Robert Plant still makes me gasp. Celebration Day.
This is another very difficult choice, but I'm going to go against my own pick and say Fortunate Son.
Fortunate Son !
Fortunate Son.

Yeah, she seemed pretty flaky. I never listened or watched much of her stuff, and this was the first time I ever heard her sing.
Never had heard either of those pieces, before today.

You never heard Molly Hatchet before? That surprises me.I thought that was a fairly popular song. I've heard that song on the radio a number of times over the years. Or maybe it was just the people I hung out with.

I don't often listen to radio. When I do, it's usually when I'm driving across Kansas in the middle of the night. Kansas Public Radio has some cool programs.

Thats just daft. You should never stop listening to music just because its "old". Music old and new should be embraced for what it is and not where and when it came from. I have loads of new stuff, even Trance and Dubstep. I never stop looking for new and different music but I never forget what I grew up with. Thats the soundtrack of my life.
