Just my opinion. Remember what you paid for it.
Zep's not a band that I can cull "progressive" rankings of their songs. They're hard rock. If you really must do it, No Quarter and Achilles' (what a tune!) would be close. My favorite tune by them is Since I've Been Loving You and that's blues.

I respectfully disagree about the equation of how often something's played to if it's progressive or not. Makes no difference, really. I tire of overplayed stuff, too, but does it really affect it's "progressivity"?
