Product Description
From Amazon.com
Though the band likely didn't know it at the time, this would prove to be the last studio record by one of the most famous rock & roll bands in the world. Drummer John Bonham died shortly after its release. Although nothing compares to early Led Zeppelin--and they lost many longtime fans in the late 1970s--this LP is nothing to be embarrassed by. They were quick to embrace and experiment with synthesizers, and while it wears a little thin by record's end (the synth-bloated "Carouselambra" and the slick AOR hit "All My Love"), it adds a certain majestic tone to the heavy-hitting opener, "In the Evening," and gives a rollicking good-time feel to "South Bound Suarez." Plant's howl and Page's bluesy guitars are in fine form on "I'm Gonna Crawl" and the lilting "Fool in the Rain" recalls the pretty numbers from their early career. --Lorry Fleming
Chronique amazon.fr
Bien que personne ne s'en fût douté à l'époque, In Through Out The Door allait s'avérer être le dernier album studio d'un des plus grands groupes de l'histoire du rock. Le batteur,John Bonham, mourait peu de temps après la sortie du disque. Bien que rien ne soit comparable au vieux Led Zep - le groupe perd déjà de nombreux fidèles dès la fin des années 70 - cet album reste une oeuvre tout à fait honorable. Le groupe s'est toujours intéressé aux machines et, bien qu'ils deviennent un peu lassants sur la fin ("Carouselambra", "All My Love"), les synthés apportent une autre dimension au puissant "In The Evening" en ouverture, de la joie et de la fantaisie à "South Bound Suarez". "I'm Gonna Crawl" et "Fool In The Rain" rappellent le Robert Plant et le Jimmy Page de la grande époque. --Lorry Fleming

Change for the better,
By Turd Ferguson (Mundelein, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In Through The Out Door (Audio CD)
Let's face facts people. Zeppelin were a creative band that was constantly expanding its horizons musically. This is why In Through the Out Door gets bashed so often. People hate change. They wanted Zeppelin to keep putting out material that all sounded the same. But Zeppelin didn't want to do that. So they released In Through The Out Door in 1979. It was a departure from their bluesy sound into a more keyboard based sound. This benefits most of the songs. In the Evening is a standard powerful bombastic zeppelin song with that extra layer of keyboard which adds a whole nother dimension to things. Excellent solo by Page. Then comes South Bound Suarez, a song that sounds like an old timey western piano based song. The type of song you'd expect in say a western movie. This is soon followed by Fool In The Rain, the only song off this album still played on radio. It swerves and goes through multiple mood swings to create a generally great feeling. Hot Dog is next. It is the closest thing to say old school blues you see on this album. I find it funny to hear Plant say Texas just because it sounds so odd. Then comes Carouselambra my only complaint. The song is based off an extremely annoying synth riff and would've been a half decent song if it had been about 5 minutes long instead of 10. Then you have the ballad-esque All Of My Love. The song is excellent and is excellently played with an awesome keyboard solo by John Paul Jones who operates as essentially the lead musician throughout this whole album. The album ends with a bluesy song called I'm Gonna Crawl. The song features Page's arguably best solo on the album and was in my opinion a great way to end a career. Overall, this album leaves a question in the listeners head. What would have happened with Zeppelin had Bonham not died shortly after this albums release? I'd personally be interested to see where their musical direction would have gone but alas this is the end of their epic career. An excellent 5 star album is a good way to end things. Thanks for the memories Zeppelin.

In Through the Out Door,
By Jacko Monteo "wacob" (Petaluma CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In Through The Out Door (Audio CD)
Somewhere between Presence and In Through the Out Door, disco, punk, and new wave had overtaken rock & roll, and Led Zeppelin chose to tentatively embrace these pop revolutions, adding synthesizers to the mix and emphasizing John Bonham's inherent way with a groove. The album's opening number, "In the Evening," with its stomping rhythms and heavy, staggered riffs, suggests that the band haven't deviated from their course, but by the time the rolling shuffle of "South Bound Suarez" kicks into gear, it's apparent that they've regained their sense of humor. After "South Bound Suarez," the group try a variety of styles, whether it's an overdriven homage to Bakersfield County called "Hot Dog," the layered, Latin-tinged percussion and pianos of "Fool in the Rain," or the slickly seductive ballad "All My Love." "Carouselambra," a lurching, self-consciously ambitious synth-driven number, and the slow blues "I'm Gonna Crawl" aren't quite as impressive as the rest of the album, but the record was a graceful way to close to their career, even if it wasn't intended as the final chapter

Great CD,
By "spacemanbd" (AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In Through The Out Door (Audio CD)
Although not the best of the Led Zeppelin albums, it is still has great music and shows the ability of this legendary band to make music no matter what style. Yes, this CD is different than previous albums, but the fact that they made great music in a different style says a lot about the band. People get so caught up about how it's not the same as their other albums... well, yea, because its not. It's new, it's different. So if you are looking for more of the same, buy another copy of ZOSO, but if you want some Zeppelin with a twist to it, buy this CD. It is a neccesary addition to any rock and roll music collection.
