I have a ton of faves- here's mine by album:

I Babe I'm Gonna Leave You

II Thank You

III That's the Way

IV Battle of Evermore & Going to California

Houses of the Holy: The Rain Song

Physical Graffiti: Ten Years Gone & Kashmir

Presence: Nobody's Fault But Mine

Fool In the Rain is their last good song.

 

Fool In the Rain is on their last album, so that would make sense.  Unless we're counting the Coda odds and sods release.

As much as I love Led Zeppelin and the untitled fourth album, Led Zeppelin II really was the superior studio album IMO.  But this debate has been hotly contested for decades.  (Edit: I misread.  Apparently we agree on the studio merits of Ramble On and Livin’ Lovin’ Maid.)

But what has not been hotly contested for decades is that neither is the greatest studio album of all time, an honor that goes to Who’s Next by The Who, and this fact has been proven time and time again by science…

As you may know, Who's Next was originally intended to be another of Pete's big concept albums called Lifehouse, but Pete eventually gave up on the concept.  I'm a slightly bigger fan of Quadrophenia, but Who's Next is definitely one of the best rock albums made.

Physical Graffiti doesnt get the credit it deserves.

Machine Head -- now there's an all-time rocker overplayed so much in the day (at parties, not radio) that all songs are still memorable half a century later...

... except maybe "Pictures of Home" -- play it! Only 7 songs on the album!

The Who was my favorite band from my late teens until maybe my mid 40's. I still love 'em.

BTW, the "moon" from my username comes from Kieth.

Quadrophenia is stunning. 

Who's Next is the most popular and worthy of a ton of praise.

Live at Leeds is one of the best live rock albums of all time.

One of the best bassist tracks ever is on Eminence Front. Pete's guitar gets most of the raves, and that's understandable, but to me, Moon's rumbling, often off-beat style carried the band. I used to say he played "lead drums." The Who was really 3 musicians all thinking they were on lead. Poor Daltrey had no chance, but he did his best to steal the show.

In Through The Out Door was the title of that last album, which did have Fool in the Rain.

It also has a fun and very non-Zeppelin-esque song called Hot Dog.

That album did show it was time to end it all.
