Led Zeppelin soars!

bysparkospunky Jul 8, 2000
92 Helpfuls 93 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great musicians, excellent production
Cons Some confusing time signatures
Recommended it? Yes

With Led Zeppelin IV, released in 1971, Led Zeppelin completed the transition (or progression, if you will) from a blues-based band to a rock n' roll band. There is some good acoustic work on this album and some alternative instrumentation, such as mandolin, flute and different forms of percussion,... Read full review »

"There's a lady who's sure,
all that glitters is gold,
and she's buying a stairway to heaven"

I am pretty sure that anyone who is a fan of music must have heard those words at least once in their lifetime. Yes, this is the beginning phrase which starts off Led Zeppelin's... Read full review »

One of those "necessary" albums

Pros Out and out classic heavy metal album that's still influential today
Cons Wish it were a bit longer -- 42:25 seems short these days when it comes to an LP
Recommended it? Yes

I read somewhere this album has sold over 16 million copies since it was released in 1971. That's a hell of a lot of copies of this thing, but the number of albums sold comes as no surprise to me. Led Zeppelin managed to create one of the "defining" hard rock and heavy metal albums when they... Read full review »

Led Zeppelin IV: I Pretty Much Have To Love This Right? (ISYMIYSMY W/O)

Pros It's got Stairway To freakin Heaven on it
Cons There was only one song I'd skip while listening again
Recommended it? Yes

This review is a part of MattA75's third rendition of the I'll Show You Mine If You Show Me Yours write-off. The goal is to be paired up with a reviewer who has a different taste in music as yourself and then swap albums and review them. My partner is JiggyJay. And my partner has given me Led...

'Oh here's to my sweet Satan'... Satanic New Year Debunking Special

Cons If we're playing specifics, two weaker songs...
Recommended it? Yes

This review requires you to think for a moment.

Whether society is getting desensitized is for Tool to discuss within their own music, but Satanism, in plain form, is still a strong topic, and if you hit it obtusely enough, you're guaranteed to offend some people. Slayer knows this... Read full review »

Stairway to Immortality

Pros Rock classics and underrated gems
Cons A bit dated in places
Recommended it? Yes

Led Zeppelin was an incredibly successful band well before this record came out. Using the notoriety he had gained playing in the legendary British blues group, the Yardbirds, Jimmy Page saw the void left by the demise of Cream, and was confident he could fill it.

At times, it seemed like... Read full review »

Going to California With An Aching In My Heart...

byMattA75 Dec 26, 2003
45 Helpfuls 46 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros 8 songs ranging from very good to classic.
Cons Stairway's over-rated, but what can you do about that?
Recommended it? Yes

It's hard to be one of the few who finds Stairway to Heaven over-rated...

That is not to say that Stairway is not a good song, but that to call it one of the five best Led Zeppelin songs, nevermind one of the five best rock and roll songs ever, is well, a bit misguided.

[Editor's Note: Review Cannot Remain Untitled. You Are Not Led Zeppelin]

Recommended it? Yes

Released in 1971, Led Zeppelin IV (or Untitled or Zoso or "picture on a dilapidated wall of burned-out hippie toting a bundle of sticks" or whatever you want to call those four symbols that grace the album's inner label) contains the strongest set of songs the group released on one LP. Yet,... Read full review »

The True Story Behind One of the Great Rock Albums

Pros One of the four or five greatest hard rock albums in history
Cons The acoustic bits slow the album down
Recommended it? Yes

There's a plethora of "hip" reviewers on epinions who have taken shots at Led Zeppelin IV and its AOR warhorse "Stairway to Heaven" as overrated, cliched, uneven, or whatever. I think that part of the trend is the passage of time—everything is more likely to whacked the longer it is around, even... Read full review »

Discontent with the critical response to his previous albums (and work with The New Yardbirds), Zeppelin frontman Jimmy Page, also the producer and organizer of the band throughout its legacy, released the legendary rock group's fourth album as nondescript. The entirety of the text consisted of the... Read full review »

Led Zeppelin 4

Jimmy Page was a top London studio guitarist before he got rich and famous as the musical leader of Led Zeppelin. The group's fourth--and arguably their finest--album is as much a tribute to his technique as a monument to his versatility. Page produced the album, co-wrote all eight songs, and played mandolin as well as all the guitars. Musically, this 1971 disc ranges from acoustic English folke ("Goin' to California" and "The Battle of Evermore," the latter featuring the late Fairport Convention frontwoman Sandy Denny) to bone-crushing, bluesy riff-slinging. On the album's centerpiece, "Stairway to Heaven," these light and dark strains are dramatically intertwined. The chiming "Four Sticks" aside, it's the Little Richard-inspired "Rock and Roll" and the tricky time changes--a Zeppelin trademark--of the fast-and-furious "Black Dog" that elevate this album into more than just a bustle in aspiring guitarists' hedgerows. --Don Waller
