I love that you've got I Am Easy to Find on there. I was skeptical about the duets but it works beautifully.

My 3rd favourite act is a virtual tie between the Stones and Zep.
Had I had listed the Stones our albums are the same. My songs would be

Gimme Shelter
Sway
Brown Sugar

3rd song is tough. Brown Sugar just nudges out Jumpin Jack Flash, Ruby Tuesday, Wild Horses, Salt of the Earth, and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking

I didn’t dare pick Morrissey’s solo work. Good picks.
