Those drums were a huge part of the Zeppelin sound and the last 2 albums were weak. Probably a good decision. I’m glad they weren’t around to do a hair metal record with Mutt Lange in 1986.

There's at least 4 tracks on In Through The Out Door that are as good as anything else in their catalog, and Fool In The Rain is some of Bonzo's best work.

If you're counting the last two as "In Through the Out Door" and "Coda" I can see your point, although "In" has some great stuff on it. "Coda" was just thrown out there a couple of years after they broke up with a bunch of below-average Zep stuff.

Some folks don't count Coda as an actual album, in which case "Presence" would be one of the last two. I hope you don't mean this, as IMHO "Presence" is an amazing album.
