The title track is the weakest off of Powerslave.

"Good Times Bad Times" is one of the lamer LedZep songs.

That would be "Back in the Village".

.

Even though I still don't particularly care about any of the songs on it as anything but easy listening.

Eh, I don't mind it as much actually. Whereas "Powerslave" has gimmicky riffs and cringey vocals from Bruce abound.
And I don't mean to say that as if hammy = cringey, because Dickinson's hamminess works well on so many other tracks, but his vocals on that song just put me off. It sort of picks up during the solo section, but it still ranks as the weakest track on the album for me.

This would be my approximate ranking of the album's tracks from best to worst:
"Flash of the Blade"
"2 Minutes to Midnight"
"Losfer Words"
"Aces High"
"The Duellists"
"Back in the Village"
"Rime of the Ancient Mariner"
"Powerslave"
