A lot of people are saying that Zep did better later on, but it seems like it was just a different style. Some of their best blues are on the debut. Still, it looks like it might be close...

Led Zeppelin. I don't love the album, but its enjoyable and I for the most part find Godspeed to be very average.

I don't particularly enjoy Godspeed, and it's against my favorite Led Zeppelin record, so I'm not voting for it. LZ seems to be the underdog, too.

This, even though I like Led Zeppelin's debut too. Still, Godspeed! is better in every way.

I don't really like either, but F♯ A♯ ∞ at least works ok as background music. The Zeppelin debut is one of the worst albums I've had the displeasure of seriously trying to get into.

I couldn't finish F♯ A♯ ∞, but Led Zeppelin is an absolutely stellar debut. I know where my vote is going.

So, I listened to both albums again. I didn't like either as much as I remembered liking them the first round. Zeppelin was still an enjoyable listen, only, a little less so. However, whatever I thought was so interesting the first time I heard F#A#oo, I didn't hear it this time.

Vote to Zeppelin.

I like both but love neither. Will relisten over the coming days to decide, though I'm leaning towards Godspeed at this point.

Really tough decision. Both are excellent. Zeppelin I was extremely important in the progression of recording technique, especially drums. And there's some surefire hits. But F♯ A♯ ∞ has a more profound effect on me.

I actually really really like F#A#, but Led Zeppelin I is one of my favorite albums of all time. It's #3 on my overall chart.

Yea, it's definitely Zeppelin.

This is the one Godspeed record I have been meaning to discover for a long time, this is my chance. Won't take too much to beat Led Zep' from where I stand.

Led Zep got better later on. GYBE didn't.

One is in my top 10. The other I haven't heard, but it's going to take something special to get my vote.

Zep is more of a favorite of mine than GY! BE, but this is one of my least favorite Zep records against my favorite GY! BE record...

I'm not crazy about Led Zeppelin, but I can enjoy it if I'm in the right mood. I rather dislike the other.
