I grew up on Led Zep but cannot listen to it now. Very dated ( though if I was asked 30 years ago I would have stated " Led Zep forever!"Colin Hayes said:

I still enjoy Zep. I agree the first 4 are probably timeless ( as well as Physical Graffiti ). I just find after discovering Joe Satriani back in 1988 and then spending the following 2 years learning how to play it, my taste changed a lot. If I had a dime for every time I played stairway to heaven I would retire now instead of 4 years from now ( I cringe when I hear that song now )pinball1970 said:
