Answers:
Strongest: IV and Houses of the Holy
Weakest: In Through the Out Door

This is my OPINION of course!.

EDIT:
Houses of the Holy is brilliant!. It just strong from beginning to end!. The first song: The song remains the same makes me think I'm sitting in a dark cafe of bar crying and drinking!.
After that there is the Rain Song which is beautiful!. And Over the Hills and Far Away which makes me really appreciate my freedom!. I LOVE singing along to Dancing Days!. The album ends with No Quarter which I can only describe as unearthy!.

Led Zeppelin IV: another friggin' brilliant album! It starts with Black Dog, which always causes me to sing along and act like I'm a rockstar!. It's a GREAT song!.
There's Rock&Roll with the ''little'' guitar solo!. And of course Stairway, yes overplayed, but that doesn't change the fact that it's one of the best songs ever made!.
The Song Battle Of Evermore is kind of folk'ish, another great song!. And as a bluesrock fan I can REALLY appreciate Zeppelin's cover of When The Leevee Breaks!.

I hope you can understand why I love these albums, now!. I'm not really good at expressing myself sometimes!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Stongest- Houses of the Holy, It was the pinacle of their collective writing abilities with epics like Song Remains The Same into Rain Song
Weakest- In Through The Out Door!. It was an album that was written by Plant and Jones mostly, Bonham was out drinking a lot then and Page was into heroin at that point so it wasn't a great "group" album but still a classic!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Strongest - Led Zeppelin III
I loved how this album was acoustic-oriented and had some of their best songs, especially when performed live like The Immigrant Song, Since I've been Loving You, Gallows Pole, and Celebration Day!. My favorie Zeppelin album!.

Weakest - Coda
It's mostly songs that were left off previous albums because of time or not being that good!. I really like We're Gonna Groove and Darlene though!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

To me the weakest is Presence (1976)!. I just couldn't ever get into it very much!. I remember when it came out and the first time I heard Candy Store Rock!. I was around 13 years old and I told my sister's bf who was around 23 and a big Zeppelin fan, and he told me Presence sucked!. Maybe that's why it didn't grow on me!. I actually never bought a copy of it until the complete box set came out!. I guess it's OK, but not as great as the other albums!.

Now the strongest is a tie between:
* Led Zeppelin (1969)
* Led Zeppelin II (1969)
* Led Zeppelin III (1970)
* Led Zeppelin IV (1971)
* Houses of the Holy (1973)
* Physical Graffiti (1975)
and that is just how it is!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

In my own opinion!.!.!. Coda is the weakest!. To me, the band didn't sound cohesive anymore and of course, that was their last album together and I feel the magic was worn thin by then!.

Their strongest - Led Zeppelin IV!. Most people know every song off that just by hearing a snippet!.!. you can't get much stronger than that when recognition is that high!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Coda & Presence are weakest, I honestly don't like any songs on Coda and only one on Presence!.

Led Zeppelin III and Houses of the Holy are my favorite, c'mon now, (The Ocean, D'yer Mak'er, Over the Hills, The Song Remains the Same, No Quarter, Friends, Since I've Been Loving You, Immigrant Song, Bron-Y-Aur) Those two albums really bring it home, and are some of the best in classic Rock!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Led Zeppelin II - Weakest!. It bored me at times and wasn't exactly a strong follow-up to I if you ask me!.

Houses of the Holy - Strongest!. The album was perfect!. Very eclectic!. For some reason, nobody ever mentions this album along with the songs that appear on it!.



I feel like I'm in the minority when I say Led Zeppelin was getting better as time passed!. I'll take their latter work over the former any day!. Maybe it's the radio play and the greatest hits that people own!.!.!.!.I don't know!. I do know that if Bonham hadn't tragically passed, the band would have continued to blow us away!.

*Disclaimer!.!.!.!.Albums I-IV I love, just not as much as their later albums!.


Edit: I've never counted Coda!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

i know this answer is totally cliche, but i think led zeppelin IV is their best album!.!.!.the collection of work on that album, the lyrical and instrumental presences, are stronger imo than on any other zeppelin album

i felt like presence was their worst album!.!.!.is there anything on that album even worth discussing, aside from the drum solo in achilles last stand!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

In order from strongest to weakest!.!.!. In my opinion

1!. Led Zeppelin III
2!. Led Zeppelin IV
3!. Physical Graffiti
4!. Houses of the Holy
5!. Led Zeppelin II
6!. Led Zeppelin
7!. Presence
8!. Coda
9!. In through the Out DoorWww@Enter-QA@Com

i think that the strongest album is probably the 4th because of how many great songs are on there like stair way to heaven and When The Levee Breaks and the weakest is coda because in my opinion the later albums were didn't have that new sound feeling to themWww@Enter-QA@Com

I assume that you are not counting Live material, either, because the BBC Sessions are incredible !!

Just my opinion --

Best - Led Zeppelin
Least - Presence

Ranked -

Led Zeppelin
Led Zeppelin II
Physical Graffiti
Led Zeppelin IV
Led Zeppelin III
Houses of the Holy
In Through the Out Door
Presence

Strongest - Houses of the Holy - Every song was good enough to be a single, and the awesome album cover made it even better!.

Weakest - Coda - There was not a single memorable song on Coda!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Strongest: LZ II!. It is constantly underrated but I think all the songs are great!.

Weakest: Presence!. Process of elimination because all the other albums are better!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

their strongest would be LZ 4 and Physical Graffiti their weakest would be their last few albums after PGWww@Enter-QA@Com

Strongest-IV
Weakest-Coda


EDIT- I just think IV has their best songs on it, and it's the one I listened to most!. Coda just kind of bores me I guess!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
