Best Zeppelin Album?

I'm downright torn between I,II,IV, and House of Holy.

I'm not sure if its even possible for me to decide. I'll be listening to one album, totally into it, and think, "Damn, this has gotta be their best album." Then I start listening to another, and the same thing happens.

What about you guys? It'd be cool to hear your picks, and a little reasoning behind your chocie.

My sentimental favorite is Houses of the Holy, just because I love "Over the Hills," "Rain Song," "D'yer Mak'er" and "The Ocean." The whole album has a very breezy, transcendant kind of vibe too, and a nice blend of rockers and slower tracks. "Song Remains the Same" is a great kickoff too.

After that I dig II for the perfect fusion of blues and rock, and of course the mighty IV, where every track is a killer hit. It's hard to argue against IV as being the best of their best, but there's only so many times I can listen to those tracks... House of the Holy is the album with the most replay value for me. The songs are all groovy and pleasant.
 
Without a doubt IV :-

An all-time classic.

IV is an epic, I'm partial to III and Physical Graffitti myself. Actually, since I'm a Zepplin whore, I love them all up to PG, then selectivly after that.

The best opener is Song Remains the Same, best closer song is the Bring it on Home. In conclusion I would have to go with IV because all the songs are incredible. The Crunge? Come on...

Crunge is a good song, featuring some really killer bass grooving from John Paul Jones and a nice drum track. You do know it's supposed to be a completely silly parody of James Brown, right?
