About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

On their first two albums, Led Zeppelin unleashed a relentless barrage of heavy blues and rockabilly riffs, but Led Zeppelin III provided the band with the necessary room to grow musically. While there are still a handful of metallic rockers, III is built on a folky, acoustic foundation that gives the music extra depth. And even the rockers aren't as straightforward as before: the galloping "Immigrant Song" is powered by Robert Plant's banshee wail, "Celebration Day" turns blues-rock inside out with a warped slide guitar riff, and "Out on the Tiles" lumbers along with a tricky, multi-part riff. Nevertheless, the heart of the album lies on the second side, when the band delve deeply into English folk. "Gallows Pole" updates a traditional tune with a menacing flair, and "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp" is an infectious acoustic romp, while "That's the Way" and "Tangerine" are shimmering songs with graceful country flourishes. The band hasn't left the blues behind, but the twisted bottleneck blues of "Hats off to (Roy) Harper" actually outstrips the epic "Since I've Been Loving You," which is the only time Zeppelin sound a bit set in their ways.

News Flash: Zeppelin Makes Greatest Album!!by Anonymous

August 20, 2006: No kiddin', this is like the very best of the mighty,mighty Zeppelin. Apart from "Stairway To Heaven", "Immigrant Song" is one of Zeppelin's greatsest songs. And combined with heart-wrenchers and ear-poppers like "Since I Been Lovin' You" and "Out On The Tiles" this makes one awesome listinin'. I started listenin' to Zeppelin with this one and I loved it so much I went out and bought 1,2,and 4 right after that. I love the British folk sound that makes the album what it is. Songs like "Gallows Pole" and "Bron-Yaur-Stomp" give you the perfect feeling of British culture. I love the mixture. Words can't describe it. I'll just say it's great. Thank You.

December 13, 2005: Although some may disagree, I find this album to be Led Zeppelin's best. It might be because it's full of acoustic and folk songs (which I love), but there's just something special about it. Tangerine is my favorite Led Zeppelin song and one of my favorite acoustic songs ever, but Bron-Y-Aur Stomp and That's the Way are both up there as well. Apart from the countryish parts of the album, it also has some headbangers such as Immigrant Song and Out on the Tiles or the epic song Since I've Been Loving You, although the folkish songs definitely dominate the album. This is a must buy for anyone.
