Format:Audio CD
This was a pioneering rock album by the band everyone aspired to be at the time, and are influenced by now. Unlike many other groundbreakers, this isn't particularly dated and still holds its own in a market that has moved on.
'Stairway to Heaven' deserves to be remembered as one of the all-time great tracks, but the others aren't fillers. More a case of 'Stairway' as the pinnacle of the album. Plant's vocals are forthright, bluesy and angst-ridden. Page's guitar lines are ideal in each situation and provide some great riffs. Bonham's drumming really is incredible rock drumming - hard, heavy, and not always as predicted. Somehow John-Paul Jones and his bass are by comparison, merely perfect.
There's a variety here - rocky numbers like 'Black Dog' and 'Rock n Roll', then slow blues like 'When the Levy Breaks'.
Since this album, the rock guitar has become louder and heavier through Motorhead, AC/DC, Anthrax, Slayer, through to the modern thrash. Despite that, this album still sounds fresh and has an edge of creative genius that many new bands just don't have as much of.
I write this not as someone who was there when it came out and is nostalgic (I'm too young!) but someone who found it after discovering the modern rock and metal world. And it's still, really, that good.

This album has a reputation as being one of the all time great rock albums. And it totally deserves it.
It is the product of a band at the height of their powers.
Stairway to Heaven is the best known track and is so familiar that we shouldn't take notice of it anymore. However even at this remove it isn't possible to hear the opening bars without a frisson of glee going through me.
Black Dog is another classic "Rock" tune.
There are also a few excellent folk influenced songs on the album, such as "Battle of Evermore" and "Going to California" and these demonstrate the band's versatility.
And the epic is rounded off with the dark and threatening "When the Levee Breaks", which for me has even more resonance since Katrina hit New Orleans a few years ago.
Quite simply you must have this album.

If you look at Led Zep's major attributes: passionate vocals, pioneering guitar work, towering drums, booming rhythm, they are all here in abundance on this album. For me it is the pinnacle of their achievement, combining the mystical with the masterful. There isn't a weak track as the music moves between out and out rock 'Rock and Roll' 'Black Dog' to the lyrical 'Going to California' via the transcendent 'Battle of Evermore' and peerless anthem 'Stairway to Heaven'. I know Stairway has had hours of airplay over the years, but it is a great track, and if anything this whole album in many ways seems too obvious a choice for best album for a lot of Zep fans. But Zep 2 is less textured, Physical Graffiti less unified. I love all their albums but always come back to this one because it is satisfaction guaranteed. They just don't make them like this anymore!
