Product Description

As it turned out, Led Zeppelin's infamous 1969 debut album was indicative of the decade to come--one that, fittingly, this band helped define with its decadently exaggerated, bowdlerized blues-rock. In shrieker Robert Plant, ex-Yardbird Jimmy Page found a vocalist who could match his guitar pyrotechnics, and the band pounded out its music with swaggering ferocity and Richter-scale-worthy volume. Pumping up blues classics such as Otis Rush's "I Can't Quit You Baby" and Howlin' Wolf's "How Many More Times" into near-cartoon parodies, the band also hinted at things to come with the manic "Communication Breakdown" and the lumbering set stopper "Dazed and Confused". --Billy Altman

Format:Audio CD
LED ZEPPELIN'S excellent debut album is the strongest debut album by any band ever. Inspired by the works of Cream and starring the (in)famous Jimmy Page of the YARDBIRDS fame, LED ZEPPELIN will forever be among the greats of rock. Inspiring bands all over the world including AC / DC and RUSH, the combination of Page's masterful guitar hooks, mixed with the super frenetic drumming by the late, great John Bonham will shatter you're senses, as well as your windows. The bass by Jon Paul Jones is the fattest sounding bass in the history of music. The only one who comes close is Geddy Lee. After you listen to LED ZEPPELIN'S first four albums, the blend of smooth blues, relaxing folk and hard - hitting rock will surely make you clamor for more. This is where it all started. This is rock at it's finest. This is LED ZEPPELIN.

I have the original vinyl purchased in the 60's which though played to death is still in fine shape. Purchased the SHM-CD and am impressed. It is better than the remastered CD, more depth, longer reverb and a bit smoother overall but not a " night & day " difference. The vinyl is still a bit warmer. The SHM-CD is nice to have but if you have the "Remastered CD" look for an original vinyl copy to round out you Led Zep catalogue. Of course the music is first rate and always has been, it's just nice to hear ALL the subtleties and believe me there are quite a few!

This CD has some of the greatest material from them on it. "Your Time is Gonna Come" and "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" really showcase the bands talent. Plant's voice was great during this period too. This album ranks up there in my top favorites from Zeppelin. Definately a must have for any collection!
