Ugh so do I, Keraptis was such a jerk. However, White Plume Mountain is my 2nd favorite module, the 1st being Isle of Dread.
I recommend that everyone try the Isle of Dread if you havn't, its awesome
A question for all the grognards! Help me pick a classic module.

Well, keep in mind that I had already picked through the collection.
You missed the stack of Dungeon issues (40s and 50s) and several modules.Wil, I found this bunch right after we had lunch last week. You guys really should have skipped going back to the office.

I was in Austin three days ago and decided to skip the South Lamar 1/2 price. Heh. My luck.

Okay, I have to ask. Which modules did you get?

In addition to recommending N1 and L1 as others have done, I'll mention X2 Castle Amber, which can easily blossom into a mini-campaign. Like the former two modules, X2 is often overlooked for its broad tapestry of Clark Ashton Smith coolness
If you have a copy of Dungeon #4, "Trouble at Grogs" is a wonderful investigative adventure for low-level PCs. The recent Age of Worms modules would also do nicely, although you won't have to convert them (unless you're playing C&C or somesuch).

You might try the sequel to Castle Amber, Mark of Amber. It's sort of a re-visit to it. To a certain extent, it makes more sense than the original.

N1 is great. I don't have anything to add to what has already been said.
L1 is excellent too, as it is really a mini-campaign setting. When combined with L2 ("The Assassin's Knot"), the 'L' series makes for some truly fine gaming. L2 is a mystery adventure, btw, which is a neat contrast to L1.
UK2-3 were already mentioned. They're very fine modules, but IMO the best AD&D module is UK4 ("When A Star Falls"). It has lots of interesting elements -- a truly unique beginning, a compelling plot, some intriguing plot twists, many colourful NPCs, and a cool ending.
For Basic D&D, I think B10 ("Night's Dark Terror") is perhaps the best module ever written. It is a mini-campaign that can last for months, and has everything you could want in a D&D module -- plus an amazing, truly 'Cthulhu-esqu' ending.
