I can’t believe ya’ll left Courage off your Tragically Hip lists. As for a list: Zeppelin. I made this one years and years and years ago and I still listen to it (90 minute tape–running order is off, as I can’t remember it off the top of my head). All from the underrated post IV-era: 1. In the Evening 2. In My Time of Dying 3. Ten Years Gone 4. The Rain Song 5. Kashmir 6. For Your Life 7. In the Light 8. Achilles’ Last Stand 9. All of My Love [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/your-personal-best-of-albums/156956.md?page=3)
