Reviews (page 10 of 15)
This was a really good album but overall I don't think the entire album lived up to the level of Immigrant Song. While I enjoyed it the middle section of the album started to blend together a bit. Out on the Tiles was a fun song in the middle though. All in all it was a very good album but needed a few more really good songs to be a true 5 star.
Top 3: 1) Since I've Been Loving You 2) Bron-Y-Aur Stomp 3) Gallows Pole Bottom 3: 1) Out On The Tiles 2) Celebration Day 3) Friends (far from a bad song but there is no way I can put anything from the 2nd half on a Bottom 3)
Fun
One of the best opening songs to an album ever. AH AH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AH
I think I like Zeppelins II and IV better (been years since I've listened to either all the way through) but this one's still solid.
I liked it
Immigrant Song as the actual rock, but a switch to more folky stuff. Pleasant surprises: That’s the Way, Tangerine, Out on the Tiles
Amazing guitar work of course. The album is more bluesy and folksy than I expected, and very listenable. It's just not really my style and not something I'm likely to revisit.
A solid and diverse LP that offers 70s rock at its best. I have to shamefully admit my experience with this album didn't go beyond 'Immigrant Song,' so I'm glad to have a chance to revisit and take in the wealth of musical talent on display. From the eerily off-kilter symphonic accompaniment on 'Friends' to the straightforward chugging of 'Celebration Day,' Zepp manages to pull off a staggering range while maintaining their distinct sound and feel throughout. I did feel the back half sagged due to the front-loading of all the uptempo tracks, but even in its slower moments, this LP delivers a genuine, rich compositional feel that has easily stood the test of time.
Excellent album, but they have better for me.
Great musical interplay. A classic band in their groove.
Haven't visited this in a long while. While it is recognized as an iconic classic rock staple, "Immigrant Song" is a bit irritating, and one of my least favorites here. I must have overlooked "Friends" since last listening...what an incredible track. It may be Led Zeppelin's least representative album, yet it is one of their most eclectic for certain, with much of the album emphasizing their roots: folk music. Being several years older since playing this last, I can appreciate the efforts of what the classic rock group achieved here far more. Perhaps still not my favorite, but it is a high quality entry in their discography.
This may have divided opinion at the time but it sounds great now. The more adventurous musical styles generally work well but it still has a banger in Immigrant Song, with comes a close second to Tangerine as best song.
Alright peeps we've got Led Zeppelin III up in here. Now, let me tell you, this album starts off like a punch in the face with the classic banger "Immigrant Song." I mean, I almost spilled my martini all over my velvet smoking jacket when that riff hit - it's just killer and it sets the tone for the rest of the record... ... is what I would've hoped. But, as the album progresses, it kinda ebbs out, and it's like the band felt like they gave it all with that first song, went off and did some yoga and then came back with a more classic rock sound that takes you through the rest of the album. Now don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with that. Tracks like "Gallows Pole" and "Since I've Been Loving You" are still great tracks, but they're more like a gentle massage than like the wild ride we went through at the start. Overall, I'd give Led Zeppelin III a solid 3.5 out of 5. It's like a roller coaster that starts off with a loop-de-loop but then settles into a nice, smooth ride throughout the rest of the album. .5's aren't available here so I'm being nice and kicking it up to a 4 just for Immigrant Song. It's just that good.
This is a good Zeppelin album, not their best but still good. Immigrant Song and Since I’ve Been Loving You are the two obvious standouts. Gallows Pole, Tangerine and Bron-Y-Aur stomp all great but there’s also a couple lacklustre fillers on here so I can’t quite give it a 5. Still great overall 4 stars
Still a bit shouty and stressful but starting to grow on me. Even when they are doing acoustic folk i find my face screws up. A few mellower tracks in amongst there though.
Good album. A nice mix of rock and folk. Not as punchy as LZ4 but well worth a listen
Enjoyable rock for the ages.
Top
It was pretty ok. At least it wasn’t an hour and a half long like their other album.I don’t think I’ll relisten to any of the songs though besides immigrant song.It’s just not my kinda vibe.
A classic rock album. Above average.
Good album
The first 6 albums by LZ are all great. I find this one a little uneven but contains beautiful moments and more obvious standout moments.
never dislike a led zep song. however it's rarely must listen, apart from Immigrant song of course. 4 but only just
Niet mis voor een keer
Not as good as their other stuff, IV is definitely better, but still amazing.
Absolute classic.
Вот это начало!!!! Очень кашмиром пахнет, индийщина Гитарный СЕКС пока что. Просто бешеная энергия Праздник гитары во всех ее проявлениях Идеальные темпы С сегодняшними бы возможностями звукозаписи, просто можно было бы в космос улететь БЭДЭСС!
not the best zeppelin but second tier zeppelin is far beyond the capacity of most mortals
Never really extensively listened to Led Zeppelin before but taking time to listen to this album really reminded me why these guys were so big in the first place. Great, fun rock album.
A great ablum, but not quite a classic like most of their others
Led Zep rocks on.. and here with folk/singer/song elements, demonstrating that they were much more than the average rock band.
Lovely stuff. Well done Zep lads
FINALLY! I've been waiting *checks history* 175 (!) days for a Zeppelin album to crop up. "III" isn't my favorite, but that's like saying "Help" isn't my favorite Beatles album; regardless, it's still fucking fantastic. That said, I'm not as familiar with Zeppelin as I am with the Beatles. I've got a multi-disc box set that's been my main source of Zeppelin experience, so seeing which tracks are on which album will be fun, as should getting acquainted with the tracks that didn't make it into the set (or ones that were in it, but I overlooked). "III" has its share of classics, most notably "Immigrant Song," "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp," and "Tangerine" (and "Gallows Pole," and "Since I've Been Loving You," and...), but I was unfamiliar with "Out on the Tiles," which I quite enjoyed, as well as "Hats Off to (Roy) Harper". This is a solid album, especially if you're a fan of Jimmy Page (which I am; he's my second favorite Jimmy, second only to Jimi Hendrix). "Hats Off..." has especially sweet, bluesy work by Page. Bottom line: it's fuckin' Zeppelin, man. You can't go wrong.
Not the stereotypical sound of Zeppelin but demonstrates how versatile and diverse their discography actually was. 5 decades later and still the wonder they were. I think the songs lose the momentum of Immigrant Song, but overall a diverse album of sounds and a great listen in a good run time.
Interesting mix of many different styles/genres, not what I expected. But certainly not bad either. In the end though, the lack of a couple powerhouse songs and the missing red line makes this only a 4 star album
A lil bit different approach from led zeppelin, great nontheless 7.5/10
Since I Been Loving You is a keeper but the rest of the album is nowhere near that good. Still, this is way above whatever bar is used to pick the best 1001.
After two albums full of balls-to-the-wall hard rock, Led Zeppelin starts its third outing with a shining example of the same-and then says “okay, enough of that, let’s get weird.” From swampy delta blues to sprightly English folk, Zeppelin broaden their horizons and have a damn good time doing it.
Excellent good, liked it.
It was my first time really listening to Led Zepplin and I really enjoyed it.
sounds pretty cool and unique! love the falsetto vocals in first four tunes! favourites: Immigrant Song / Since I've Been Loving You / Tangerine
Not my favorite Led Zeppelin album, but a solid one for sure. Coming off of an ambient music album, this is pretty freaking great.
Highlights: Immigrant Song, Since I've Been Loving You, Tangerine 🍊 4,5/5
Dobre
I was going into this album blind. I haven't properly listened to Led Zeppelin before, although they are constantly recommended to me, primarily from my brother. I wasn't expecting the album to sound the way it did. My ignorant perception of Led Zeppelin is that they only do hard rock. I was surprised that the album seemed to become more folk rock oriented as it went on which is right up my alley. The album began in the hard rock vein, opening with 'Immigrant Song' (the only song I recognized from the album). 'Since I've Been Loving You' presents itself as very "Janis Joplin-esque". A slow blues rock number which is worth every one of its seven minutes. Folk Rock emerges as the dominant theme with the later half of the album, particularly with the trilogy of 'Tangerine', 'That's The Way', and 'Bron-Y-Aur Stomp'. Throughout the entire album the famously highly regarded musicianship of the band is in full force. Aggressive guitar and bass tones paired with tight and purposeful drumming are an awesome pairing with Robert Plants unique vocals. This was a good album. FAVORITE SONGS: - Since I've Been Loving You - Gallows Pole - Tangerine - Bron-Y-Aur Stomp 4.25/5
Nearly perfect album, but I've listed to it too many times.
listened to again their least liked album, but still great imo
this has much less of the major issue i had with led zeppelin II, so much more of this is original, and the blues that they stole is more properly credit and obviously more of a tribute than a rip-off led zeppelin really finds themselves here, to pretty fabulous results. it's not their fault, but the punch of immigrant song has been ruined over the years due to its inclusion in commercial products like thor ragnarok (jack black singing it in school of rock is okay) out on the tiles is an underrated zeppelin classic - holy shit the lead guitar on that one is so cool. my main issue with this one is that robert plant is a little more grating here than on other albums. he's such a talent, but he's so often scream-singing here that it starts to get on the nerve a bit i like the more acoustic direction on a few of these tracks, especially bron-y-aur stomp. page is such a great guitarist, so hearing him bust out an acoustic is awesome and a big change of pace from a lot of early zeppelin much better than lz 2. hats off gents
My least favourite of the first four Led Zep albums. That said, worth it alone for the epic "Since I've Been Loving You".
underrated!
Great album, it’s been a while.
notes - third album by led zeppelin (duh) - performed and produced by the band, sent off to engineers for mix and master - the band wanted a big change, used more acoustic guitars, open tunings - love that you can hear little elements like the squeaking kick pedal, guitar pick noise, and amp buzzing - adds to the vibe - the acoustic direction is great, and they do a really good job of translating what works in their louder songs to that type of arrangement - john bonham takes a back seat on this album for the most part, which is a shame but hes great at knowing when and when not to play fav - since ive been loving you - those last couple minutes… chills Least fav - Out on the tiles - sounded like the band was going back to what they knew would work 4.5/5
This is a really good album. The songs are high quality on an individual level. However, something is lacking for me and I feel light I’m splitting hairs. It could be that I measure them by their other albums that are stupendous. But I am not excited consistently by this album. I’m giving it a 4, and I feel kind of bad about it.
Ahh the "acoustic Zeppelin album" (as was poorly nicknamed by friends in middle school) - this was a slow burn if you grew up on "THE CLASSIC HITS" on radio but damn this is so much better than a "superset of zeppelin" on the radio any day. Maybe it's the lack of overkill from old DJs, but likely it's the variety in here that I enjoy. Sure we start off with one of those short hard rock classics in "Immigrant Song" but "Friends" is a really odd change of pace - and a fantastic one. Odd and semi-off-putting chords create this almost Middle Eastern droning effect. Love it. Aside from Friends, the rest of "first side" isn't too out of character - I'm not a big fan of "Since I've Been Loving You" - bluesy yeah yeah we get it get on with it already. Far too long and uninteresting. But surrounded by a few great rockers it's not unfamilar Zeppelin. But the real changes start with "Gallows Pole" through the rest of the album - a lighter touch (meaning laying off the electric guitars / big drums) and some mysterious and lovely chord progressions - very folky and very much *not* bombastic. There's nothing I actively dislike on the album, but I just can't quite bring myself to give it a 5 - perhaps primarily Plant's voice has always been a bit much to take at times and although it's *mostly* perfectly mixed on this album, his blues warblings i'm just all done with by "Hats of to Harper." Overall this is among my favourite Zeppelin works - especially the first 4 cut sequence from side 2 - and I'm not convinced they got much better after this. 9/10 4 stars.
T3B 1. Immigrant Song 2. Out on the Tiles 3. Since I’ve Been Loving You Led!!! Easy 4!
Expected riffs, got jangly guitars but it was still great
Album starts with a banger and doesn't quite reach that height again. Still I really enjoyed it and thought it was a great album overall.
Really enjoyed that. Never listened to a Led Zeppelin album before. Not what I expected. So close to giving it a 5
Just awesome. Favorite track: Immigrant Song
Very fun listen with some classics. Fav song: Tangerine
Stone cold classic.
First Zeppelin album, Favorite track: Since I've Been Loving You, 80/100
Not quite on the level of IV but still tons of great singles and deep cuts
Since I’ve Been Loving You. 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Rock de Led Zeppelin. Un megahit. Un 4.
Tiene dos canciones que me gustan mucho (Inmigrant Song, Tangerine), pero otras no.
Not my favorite so far between the three. Still good shit tho! Fuckin page and his underage girlies. Lots of jams but nothing caught my ear except for their big ones on this album
Episch, allerdings etwas ruhiger als ich erwartet hatte. Insgesamt klasse Werk!
"Tangerine" suivi de "That's the Way", c'est les émotions....
je peux malheureusement affirmer que Spotify n'a PAS enlevé la feature qui lance les albums en aléatoire
Another chance to drag out some vinyl and listen to it, a nice reissue gifted to me by my brother long ago, complete with the recreated spinning image wheel. Zeppelin goes straight back to my musical roots as a high school intellectual stoner, and I still love the music unironically, unsophisticated though this taste may be.
Zep showcasing their breath of musical knowledge and enthusiasm for pushing boundaries.
Rock solid Zeppelin
Decent stuff
Immigrant Song, what an opener!
The immigrant song slaps
Rock, 1970. This is not a Led Zeppelin's masterpiece like I or IV, but it's definitely one of their best projects and it contains also one of their biggest hits "Immigrant Song". Great record.
I'm not much of a Led Zep fan but this really worked for me.
some good solid rock
I haven't really listened to a full album by Zeppelin (aside from the 2 I already had on this list) in a while so I'm going by memory a bit. This is a continuation of Zeppelin improving. I think the first album is pretty "meh" but the second was a bit better. There's some absolutely great songs here, including one of myvall time favorites from the band: That's The Way. Not to say that the rockers like Immigrant Song and Out on The Tiles aren't great, because they are. I like this album a lot. The the next 2 albums are peak Zeppelin to me, but this one is damn good.
Led Zeppelin
More experimental in their sounds and a bit of a departure but some cool stuff. Surprised how much acoustic guitar from Jimmy is on this album. Still shreds.
A-A-AAAAA-A, A-A-AAAAA-A Aa-Haa-Haa-Haa-Haa-Haa-yeah-yeah aA-hAA-aA-hAA-haA-hAaa-yeah-yeah
A-A-AAAAA-A, A-A-AAAAA-A Aa-Haa-Haa-Haa-Haa-Haa-yeah-yeah aA-hAA-aA-hAA-haA-hAaa-yeah-yeah 4/1001
was vibin with it until I got to the last song
This album is known for bringing out the lighter and more whimsical side of Led Zeppelin. I know I spent many hours in my youth listening to the acoustic oriented songs on what used to be called side 2. But Immigrant Song hits as hard as anything in the Led Zep canon, and Since I’ve Been Loving You still thrills me with its peaks and valleys, the full band hitting crescendo after crescendo and Jimmy Page taking that solo at what feels like breakneck speed. Such fun. Sandwiched between the releases that gave us Whole Lotta Love and Stairway, this album may seem overlooked. But it’s a real gem.
Probably the zeppelin album I like most
I prefer IV but this has some Great songs, the Classic "Immigrant Song" and "Gallows Pole" are both good songs. I also like the nod to another English Genius "Hats Off To (Roy) Harper.
I’ll confess to never having been to keen on Zep’s bluesier cuts. To my surprise however, this album demonstrates a versatility and nuance that I thought beyond this band. Side 2 of this album in particular really won me round. The folky stuff is really quite outstanding - sometimes understated and atmospheric before really indulging in some grandiose elements. Thoroughly enjoyed this, though Plant’s voice begins to grate after a while.
It opens with Immigrant Song, which has to be one of the greatest openers ever. After that it's great, but veers into turgid 12 string folk stomps a little too often to be brilliant.
This album is hygge. It is a cozy blanket with a caramel cappuccino around a camp fire.
I know this album is a classic but it just doesn't resonate with me. Yes, Immigrant Song is awesome, Tangerine is a great song, and the album is very technically sound... but I just didn't care by the end.
Said before, I’m not a big Led Zep fan, but… No denying how great Immigrant Song is with its charging rhythm and howls. And I really like the variety of folky, bluesy, and 70’s metal guitar. So that said, probably my favorite Led Zep record if I had to pick one.
Immigrant Song and Tangerine are great. The rest of the album is good but not my favorite Zeppelin.
Amazing band. A few misses on this album but that hardly taints it.
Terrific piece of music. But maybe it's just the nostalgia talking. Remembering putting the record on the turntable, turning it on, wiping the dust off, putting the needle on the record, (and somehow still getting static noises)... but the anticipation of hearing the rush from the first song.
Enjoyable to really get an album that you know what you're going to get going in. This has more varied pacing, but excels with rock, blues and folks. Was really impressed by Since I've Been Loving You... haven't had much exposure to that and it is stellar. Tangerine and Immigrant Song are the clear other favorites. Very enjoyable.
Sort of recognized some of the songs and sound of the vocalist. Fun listen, really enjoyed it.
Great album that features the 12 string heavily, even a bit of banjo that I’ve never picked up on before. Puts me in a trance like a deep zen pill.
Solo por cómo empieza ya merece la pena ser escuchado. Hay tantas cosas interesantes en este disco del año 1970 que a veces cuesta pensar en lo poco que han evolucionado otros músicos a partir de inspirarse en estos grupos. "Immigrant song", "Gallows pole" o "Tangerine".
great album, zepellin is really innovative
Always considered this one to be the weakest of the four self-titled albums. It still has the absolute bangers that are "Immigrant Song", "Tangerine" and "Since I've Been Loving You" and none of the songs are bad, so that really just speaks on how good the other self-titled albums are. These guys are truly legends in the citrus rock genre. Lemons, tangerines.. should have done a song about limes as well to complete the holy trifecta.
Classic
Fint og varierende album, men mangler de skikkelig gode sangen
Fave Zep track is on this album, the almighty Since I've Been Loving You. A few other cool tracks, but enough filler tracks to knock the whole package down to a 4. A high 4, but a 4 nonetheless.
Tiene dos temazos clásicos y favoritos para mí. El resto es una buena mezcla de rock y folk. La última canción, eso sí, es un buen wtf actual. Supongo que en el época era algo normal ese tipo de exabruptos, pero ahora es más bien algo pintoresco.
This is our second Led Zeppelin album on this list, and I find myself more impressed with this one even though the album was the other's predecessor. I may be paying more attention now or perhaps differently, more than 100 albums later, but I feel more expression and creativity here. A worthy addition to this list. There were some notable songs that stood out. if you're not clapping during "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp," then I don't know what you're doing. A shoutout to "Immigrant Song," which is such a classic banger of a song that deserves all its praise. It's definitely the hardest on the album. "Friends," which I maybe heard on the radio once or twice, stood out to me. I keep listening to it and finding more to enjoy about it. I thought "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp" would've been my favorite but "Friends" grabbed the title a few listens in. The guitar opening on "Celebration Day." The simplicity of "Tangerine." The songs are varied and enjoyable. some were okay to me overall, but nothing was bad.
Prior to 1001, this was one of my lesser liked (but still liked) Led Zeppelin albums. I would say that is still the case. That said, this is still a solid album which an amazing variety of instrumentation and vocal effects, and I have a new appreciation for it after listening to it in the scope of this project. Though it may not be a favorite album, Immigrant Song is hands down a favorite song from this album, and one of the best in Led Zeppelin's entire discography. Also, though maybe "underrated" is not the right word, I have always thought Gallows Pole doesn't get enough recognition; they manage to accomplish so much build up and excitement in a song with very minimal instrumentation. Bron-Y-Aur Stomp, as far as I'm concerned, is a secret sleeper agent banger on this album. Again, III is not my favorite, but Led Zeppelin makes it hard not to respect and appreciate their chemistry and inventiveness. What they do was cutting edge at the time, and it just WORKS.
Classic rock album with some blues/acoustic influence.
Enjoyed it, great album
Solid classic, a bit of progressive rock. Overall very good.
This ones class - 3rd in my rankings of led zepp albums feels the most unique out of their albums I've listened to. Purely due to having loads of acoustic sections (which are a great change). Also since I've been loving you is definitely a top 5 zeppelin track
Led Zeppelin II is the ultimate album. Following that is a difficult task, and III is a far cry from II. That being said, it's a different animal all together. Much more subdued, exploratory, but still cohesive. As a band, these guys are perfection. Every part of music is demonstrated to mastery with every song they perform, so it's impossible to not like this stuff even though they have peaks and valleys. What's great about III is that it builds and while you listen, there's a journey that goes out with a bang!
a more acoustic sounding led zeppelin album, that still touches hard rock, folk rock and blues influences throughout
8/10. Immigrant Song is always fun, rest of the album pretty good too
Definitely the weakest Zeppelin we’ve had so far. 8/10
A blend of folk and rock. Still think Physical Graffiti is their best album
Excellent!
Probably the most eclectic of the Led Zeppelin albums, it contains the usual bunch of hard rockers interspersed with straight blues and a heap of folky acoustic material (that mostly works), part of it with a subtle middle-eastern bent, foreshadowing the direction some of the band’s music would later take. As with all Led Zep albums, III is a super solid record, and up there with their best, but often gets overlooked between their debut and Led Zeppelin II and IV.
Listened to on 5/30/22 4/5 Favorite song: immigrant song I love Led Zeppelin and this album didn’t fail to be a series of bops- the immigrant song is quintessential 70s and I loved every moment of listening to it 3 times
Not quite as good as 2 and 4 but still great. Also a surprising amount of bluegrass songs
Good, obviously. Tangerine and That's The Way are beautiful songs, Jimmy Page is just incredible, though there's not enough on this album to lift it above a 4 overall for me.
Standout Songs: Immigrant Song, Since I've Been Loving You, Tangerine, Hats odd To (Roy) Harper
Immigrant Song is such a classic, Tangerine and Gallows Pole are also great.
Classic Zeppelin III. Not much more to say
If only Gandalf knows how to play guitar…
III will never be my go-to Zeppelin, but this was better than I've given it credit for.
Starts with a bang and remained decent throughout. Glad it didn’t fizzle out like I was thinking it might.
Solid album - didn’t blow me away, but I would listen to it again.
It's not got the big hits of Zep II or IV, but this is really good...lesser songs like Celebration Day and Out on the Tiles are really good, and then the bangers like Immigrant Song, That's the Way, etc. just round it out. Hats off to Roy is the only real dud on the album, and even it's not as bad as I remember.
It's all Led to me. Which means some I love and others just sound the same. Idk, I guess it's a solid 4 for me
Great album, will be listening to it again
I'll give 4 stars because of peer pressure, but I don't see anything special about Led Zeppelin...
The album that made Jimmy Page hate the press, simply because they couldn't understand why Zep went acoustic. Probably Cameron Crowe's favorite Zeppelin album. The highs (Immigrant Song, That's The Way, Tangerine) really soar, and are among the best of their catalog. The rest is something of a mixed bag, and a foretaste of the feast to come on the next album...
Think I've listened to Zeppelin's one and two and not really been into it. Three was pretty nice though!
Solid album from start to finish.
3.8 - excellent mix of harder tacks like “Immigrant Song” and more melodic tunes like “Tangerine”. Solid listen for a great band.
Classic Rock. Well deserve 4 +++
I've had a love/hate relationship with Led Zeppelin for a long time. Fortunately, this one is in my favorite albums of the group. The folkish songs on this record are phenomenal and Immigrant Song is a killer opener. Not a perfect album though, maybe the last 3 songs weren't needed. Anyway, it deserves 4 stars for sure.
Love me some Led Zeppelin. Truth be told, this is probably only my 5th favorite Zeppelin album (Top 4 are Physical Graffiti, Houses of the Holy, Led Zeppelin II, and Led Zeppelin IV, roughly in that order) but it's still great. 4 stars.
Kolejne Zeppeliny na liscie, tym razem z numerem trzecim z 1970, ktory jest chyba najbardziej folkowym materialem w dyskografii bandy, ktory jednak jest otwarty tak bangersko hardnym instrumentalem jak immigrant song, ktory jednak sam w sobie jest ciekawa opowiescia pasujaca do folkowych klimatow snutych na reszcie albumu, tak jak na poprzednich albumach grupa gra wylacznie przy wykorzystaniu wlasnych instrumentow, ale tym razem slychac wieksza roznorodnosc, zwlaszcza wsrod akustycznej czesci instrumentali, wiec Page operuje na banjo, akustykowych gitarach, czy tez hawajkach, do tego Jones ma hajlajtowe momenty na mandolinie, kontrabasie, poza typowymi klawiszami hammondowymi i moogowymi, kolejna rzecza ktora wyproznia ten krazek jest sposob w jakim jest podzielony udzial czlonkow zespolu w pisaniu kawalkow, bo prezentuje on o wiele bardziej demokratyczne podejscie do tematu, gdzie kazdy z czlonkow ma swoje pare groszy, a nie sam Pageowy show, roznorodnosc liryczna jaka za tym idzie jest jedna z mocniejszych stron plyty, ale jako fangej folkowej strony rocka pewnie kupilbym cokolwiek z taki akustykami pana Page, ale gdyby pisac od kawalka do kawalka to znajdzie sie tutaj cos bluesowego jak since i have been loving you z epicka solowka Jimmiego, czy cos bardziej psychodelicznego jak utwor firends, ktory jako jeden z nielicznych z tamtego okresu featuruje smyczkowe brzmienia, wiec jest to 43 przepakowane roznorodnoscia brzmienia, ale jednoczescie te 10 kawalkow pasuja do siebie tworzac spojna calosc, na plejsce juz mialem openingowego immigrantowego songa, ale tym razem dodam jeszcze wspomnianych friendsow i barowy song out on the tiles, ktory obok immigrantow jest przykladem hardego rokowania z tego krazka, charakteryzujace sie Bonhamowa solowka, jeden z hajlajtowych momentow tego albumu obok niezliczonych ou jechow Plantowych
When you open your album with “Immigrant Song” it is really hard to follow that. Zeppelin needed 9 more tracks to fill the void but they do it here. If not for IV’s more solid lineup this would’ve been Zeppelins best album.
LP
Don’t think I’ve ever listened to this album in full. Celebration Day has always been a favorite and makes me think of playing bass with Xan at 16. Ultimately still a tier below LZ II and Houses of the Holy in my opinion if only for the creativity of the songs. Still has that earlier LZ sound I like so much more than the albums after HotH.
This was my favorite Led Zeppelin record for years before I heard "Presence" and never looked back. "Since I've Been Loving You" is in the running for my favorite song by the band. You want to know what makes me feel like the Beatles were mortals more than anything? The fact that this record was released the same year as the last Beatles record. I like to think I would have thought "F the Beatles, this is the 70s and I'm a Led Zep man" the way Jimmy Page wanted. Not sure I would have. But, this and Black Sabbath drew a line in the sand. Not to mention Pink Floyd's "Atom Heart Mother." 1970 was a passing of the torch in some ways. Even the Stones had to find their way and work their asses off to make records that hung with the new class of insurgent rock bands. What an exciting time in music.
I love Led Zeppelin, but I really don't know much about them or their discography - which makes it hard to judge this album against their others. But - at the end of the day - they're the Zep, the album rocks. What more do I need to know?
Great rock album
Not their best but it is still really good. I love the latter half run from Gallows -> Bron Y Aur. So solid.
Most definitely the lesser of the better albums from Led Zeppelin (a distinguished list that includes 1 to 4 + Physical Graffiti). But lesser does not mean that it’s anything less than excellent, brimming as it is with classics (Immigrant Song) and signature blues tracks (Since I’ve Been Loving You).
Revenge of the Led. This was nice and boppy! I'm glad the generator made me listen to Led Zeppelin as I enjoyed this. Again I'm torn between a 3 or a 4, I wish the rating system was out of 10 tbh.
This was good and I had fun!
Led Zep's first two albums are great, but have quite rightly been regarded as rip-offs of classic blues artists, and they don't bring much of their own sound to the records. This is the first album where they really bring something different to the table, with a wide variety of styles blending together in a pretty perfect way
Pretty good album. I liked the banjo that showed up in the one song. 1 recognized song
Предисловие: Альбом слышал раньше. Тогда мне не понравилось. Даём 2 шанс. Прослушивание 1 1 Обожаю этот трек. Лучшая песня в ost шрека. Хахахаха) 2 Сказать мало что можно. Трек необычный. Похож на музыкальную паузу из мультфильмов дисней. 3 Сесть бы сейчас в какую-нибудь семёрку, и поехать в закат. Включить это на всю, и радоваться жизни. Мне нравится. 4 Как он чувствует... хахаха) этот трек пропитан колосальной энергией 5 Меня завораживает этот голос. Это прекрасно. 6 Что за кантри началось?) Мне ооочень нравится. 7 Сгрустнул.... 8 Что за депресняк начался?.. 9 Вот это другое дело. Сейчас иду по улице, пританцовываю. Выгляжу наверное,как идиот. 10 Какая грязь. Мне это не понравилось.
5 star album by any conventional scale but led gets judged on their own scale
Immigrant song is a hell of a way to start off an album. After that, this becomes a more straight ahead blues album with hard rock layered over it. It works pretty well, and there are plenty of classic songs on this album. One thing that was hard to keep out of my mind while listening to this is that the next three albums that they are going to put out are going to be IV, Houses of the Holy, and Physical Graffiti. This album is not as strong as those, but on its own it's very good. It's clear that this album is previewing where the band is going, but it's not quite there yet 4/5
Muito mais músicas boas do que eu imaginava
Some good rocking here
Inte Zeppelins bästa, men det säger inte så mycket. Immigrant Song är en sån jävla tokbanger, man glömmer ibland hur bra Zep är för att de är en sån stor del av kanonen vid det här laget men de är så ägiga??
Very under rated. But I'm biased.
Good
Another superb entry by Led Zeppelin. Incredible how they could pop out these amazing records a year apart. This album is where LZ starts to explore other genres, blues here, funk there, and overall very much a blend of folk and heavy metal. It's hard to even hate the less interesting songs cause the band members all work so well together, not just the rhythmic drumming or Plant's delivery, but for me it's Page's guitar that firmly establishes him as one of the best, if not the best, guitarist of all time. The highlights of this album are "Immigrant Song", "Since I've Been Loving You", "Tangerine", "That's the Way", and "Bron-Y-Aur-Stomp." Half the album, not bad. "Since I've Been Loving You" is one of my favorite songs of all time; that masterpiece is enough for me to keep coming back to this album. Despite the fact this is my least favorite pre-Presence album, it just goes to show LZ has one of the most consistent discographies in music history.
A couple of gimmicky throwaway tracks… Hats Off should have been an instrumental. But the great Immigrant Song is only like the fifth-best one, and that’s really saying something. I saved several of these for permanent rotation, and I’m so glad I finally heard the drums on Out On The Tiles.
Immigrant Song
Well, its another LZ BANGAAA. Hot topic which album is best, but there's some gold in here: Immigrant Song and Since I've Been Loving You. Perhaps a 4*... tough!
Ein á mínum uppáhalds
Not my favorite Zeppelin album, but awesome nonetheless. "That's The Way" has quickly become one of my favorite songs of theirs. Just like every Led Zeppelin albums, there are enough hits that can draw you in, that you end up listening to the whole record.
Love this group
One of Led's greatest songs kicks this album off and lets just say I've been waiting since the beginning of the year to review a Led Zepplin album. Three is not in the top albums for me but that is only because I was never as familiar with it as 1 or 2 or Physical Graffiti. After listening to it, I'd still keep it lower on my list only because I was always more a fan of their rock side than folk side but this is still a classic album.
FINALLY. We've made it through 242 albums before hitting our first from Led Zeppelin. Starting with III is interesting because this is personally my least favorite of the self-titled series, at least that was my perception going into it today. Coming out, I'm not so sure. This is a fantastic album, and I knew that going in, but so many more great songs than I recognized or remembered. Crazy that Immigrant Song is the biggest hit on here, I certainly don't think it's the best. An obvious departure from their usual hard rock fare to folksy blues. Lots of acoustic and sliding steel guitars. They really committed to a sound and overall it came out really well. I don't think this is on the same plane as the first two LZ albums, but damn it's also terrific. Favorite tracks: Tangerine, Hats Off to Roy Harper, Out on the Tiles, Immigrant Song, Since I Been Loving You. Album art: Love the cover, and seeing it here larger than usual illuminates incredible detail. Very lively and funky, feels organic in the way the music does as well. But the first four Zeppelin album covers are iconic regardless. 4.5/5
some great tracks on here, Plant's voice and Page's guitar work are such a good combo
Never listed to the Zep much before. Really quite liked it
Great
Pretty sweet album. Consistent rock.
I used to play this album so much - haven't played it for years now, but it's still great.
shame spotify links you to the remaster by default. the curse of the spotify remasters! lowkey wish it was 2 rather than 3, but I'll take what I can get also, it turns out the first led zep album came out 50 years ago, which is really strange and incredible to me for some reason
This album starts on a high with Immigrant song, but can't really follow it up - a lot of good riffs but not much that really reaches out and grabs me, although celebration day is close. I'd come back to this album for an enjoyable listen, but it's never going to be one of my favourites.
Plenty of bangers and still as full sounding
The album leads off with its best song. The Immigrant song sets the tone for the album, but none of the other songs live up to it, and leaves you a little disappointed. A lot more bluesy songs on this album.
I think this was one of my favorite Zeppelin albums at one point but I haven't listened to Led Zeppelin in a while. It's definitely a great record but I listening back this time it was a little underwhelming this time. I think there are two reasons * The recording quality leaves a bit to be desired. Sounds a bit thin in places (probably the first time I'm listening to this on a truly hi-fi audio setup) * It's a bit less bombastic than earlier Zeppelin albums. They definitely started to do more acoustic stuff and ballads. The is one of the things I used to really like about this album but probably I just wasn't in the mood for mellow Zeppelin this time out so not going to count this against it too much. Anyway, hard to rate this anything but a 4. A great record.
I genuinely cannot believe how good that album sounded. I played the first track expecting to hear hard rock, what I encountered was bluesy rock and a bit folky as well. My perception of Led Zeppelin has been totally overturned, and for the better as well
Great display of folk and rock blending tinny folk acoustics with heavier rock riffs and drums. Not the album that brings me home but a refreshing and impressive collection from one of the greatest with some classics snuck in. 4.49 Friends, Out on the tiles, gallows pole, tangerine
Obviously, the musicianship is faultless, and thankfully the professionalism here is part of the band's passion for an eclectic range of music. Yet one would like a more organic tracklisting; the division of the LP into electric and acoustic sides makes the album feel like slightly artificial, as if driven by guile as much as creativity. Also, and you may disagree, the cumulation and ordering of the acoustic tracks causes the last two tracks, Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp and Hats off to (Roy) Harper, to sound a little peculiar, like experiments that don't completely come off. Nevertheless, there's more than enough meat here.
yup, still like this. some songs still played now and then on remastered box
Familiar Led Zeppelin sound, but also a bit of experimentation on this album. Not perfect, but lots to like, with Since I've been Loving You and Tangerine as particular highlights.
Tiene dos canciones que me gustan mucho (Inmigrant Song, Tangerine), pero otras no.
More folky and even bluesy than their prior work. Not my favorite album of theirs but definitely some hidden gems.
Incredible start, but then nothing else on the album quite holds up to Immigrant song. One more banger makes this an easy 5
Not a cohesive album imo, but when it's good it's "best ever" good. And there's more good than not. Deserves to be on this list.
Great album. Knew a few of the songs but dont think I had listened to it all before.
This album is definitely my favorite currently of the zeppelin albums 1-4. Tangerine and immigrant song is great!
Really enjoyable. A classic which I had never listened to from start to finish. Even the strummy acoustic songs rock.
I've probably listened to this the second-most of all zeppelin albums, and for good reason. It's really good. Celebration Day and Gallows Pole are the standouts, and despite it being overplayed for 50 years and its presence in Marvel movies Immigrant Song still rocks pretty hard....
classic
Immigrant Song obviously the most popular but I guess I was expecting something a bit more. This one was quite bluesy/acoustic/folk, probably more than what I would've liked. 7/10.
classic
I usually say I don’t like led zeppelin but I actually enjoyed this album.
Rating: 8/10 Best songs: Immigrant song, Since I’ve been loving you, Out on the tiles, Gallows pole
Sounds a lot like Greta Van Fleet! (Did I make you cringe?! :D ) More seriously, Zeppelin is great. Had not listened to this CD before, a bit of a departure from their popular stuff, had a lot of fun listening to this on repeat.
Didn’t have the magic of some other Led Zeppelin albums, but still a solid listen.
Definitely a repeat listen for some songs like Tangerine and Immigrant Song
Bra skiva!
Cool, classic Led Zeppelin album. Immigrant Song is definitely the best song on album.
Incredible album the whole way through, if I had to give it a complaint, the last track is a bit shit but overall loved it
Opening with the immigrant song is so good. Probably my favorite opening of a Zepplin album. But I don't think it follows the flow of that super well. But man is it a good album. Always thought it was a weird folksy sorta rock, much different than their usual sound anyway. I like it, it's different, not in a bad way. It isn't my favorite Zepplin album.
Yep, it’s good
absolute quality
Really great.
i know a couple of their popular songs and i like dazed and confused. from this tracklist i only know immigrant song. which is so short btw. doesnt do much for me. second song: meh sound and i dislike the lyrics. synth at the end was delicious. LOOOOVE how it carried over into the next song. i like 'celebration day' a lot better in all possible ways. song fades out which is okay but ill be thinking about the previous transition forever. OH i do know this song too ('since ive been loving you'), love it. nice. love a long intro when its this good. next song is good too it was just the second song really that i didnt care about and even then the ending was cool. overall album is very listenable cause i like chill rock songs but i dont think its all that. didnt blow my mind but its good and perfectly enjoyable. i added 'since ive been loving you' to my playlist for songs over 7 plus minutes :)
real good groves. the drums are sick and the bass is nasty.
I grew up on this album. Still holds up.
My favorite so far is “since I’ve been loving you” it gives off a funkadelic soul type of song while still hitting that guitar making it a rock. I love it.
Was just in the right mood for this one. Enjoyed the majority of the tracks - I get a nice wave of nostalgia every time I listen to Led Zep. Probably one I'll come back to again
Solid start with Immigrant Song. By the 2nd song it feels like a solid 4. Love the blues / blue-grass influence of Led Zep, almost a bit slide guitar. And can tell how they've progressed through the last 2 albums to this one. 4/5
Love multiple songs from this gem. It is definitely not the best Zeppelin album, however, it has many highlights. I'd give it 9/10, however, as I can give it only 5 star ranking I am going to give it 4.
This album rips. Immigrant Song is a killer opening track. This era of music, and Led Zepplin in particular, is known for the excess, but you have to respect a 40 minute album.
It's Zeppelin, you know exactly what you're going to get. I did like this more than I usually like them though. I think doing a whole album here works better than the solitary songs I've heard before.
Zep's slightly more folky album. BT: Immigrant Song, Celebration Day, Gallows Pole
Awesome stuff.
Not much to say. It was Great. Every song. Obviously, right?
Wonderful rock record with an equally excellent folkie B side. Rock at its prime in its heyday, difficult to beat
Love this, awesome playing with folk
It's very interesting to listen to some Led Zeppelin songs that aren't part of the greatest hits of the band (for me, the only exception here is "The immigrant song"), but Led Zepelling is always Led Zepellin, so I don't have so much to say: Absolutely amazing
Really good! Didn't expect that sound and really enjoyed it. I think it runs a bit out of steam, but maybe it was just me getting a bit bored :S "Immigrant song", "Celebration Day", "Gallows Pole": BANGERS!
I liked some of it
Haden't heard Tangerine before
I dig it.
Quality listenings
My least favorite of Led Zeppelin's first six albums but again still very good. 1. Gallow's Pole 2. Since I've Been Loving You 3. Tangerine
Classic. Reminds me of college
i could - and would - hate on robert plant's voice until the cows freeze over...but damn, man...bonham.
Diverse and awesome
Discovered Led Zep in 1989 with their (untitled) 4th album. Then, listened to all albums. Top track: Since I've Been Loving You
classic
Classic.
4. Quizá no le puse mucha atención al final pero sentí que se cae poquito. Qué pinche joya son Celebration Day, la que sigue y la que sigue.
Aunque tiene una de mis rolas favoritas, las cuatro estrellas son porque creo que me gusta un poco más el disco número II que muy seguramente tocará escuchar en algún momento.
Solid
Starts with an all time best riff and has to keep up from there. Awesome.
I've grown to appreciate Zeppelin more and more. Great album.
Very good. Even though most of songs on this album are not mega hits and only Immigrant Song desrves to be called that, it's a very good rock album.
More acoustic than I expected
I had Led Zeppelin 1 come up yesterday, and I'm definitely still a fan of this one, but in comparison, it's not quite the masterpiece that 1 is. It seems more disconnected, and not all the songs are bangers. Still love it though!
slower zep. fav track: that's the way
It’s a zeppelin album. Solid classic rock. Starts with the best - immigrant song.
Great album and powerful album
This album was sick. Got a new song off it, enjoyed it a lot.
For me, there is not a Zeppelin album that is less than a 3. This one- this is a 4.
A great, expansive exploration of sound…on their way to Zeppelin IV!
It doesn't get any more classic than Led Zeppelin. Some great songs.
Zepplin's great
I've heard this album a few times before, it's pretty varied and the songwriting is noticeably a lot better than most other rock from 1970. Zeppelin were ahead of their time, one of the few artists from this exact time that kinda DOES deserve to have a bunch of albums in this list. Everyone loves Immigrant Song etc, but big fan of all the 12-string acoustic stuff as well. Would get a 5 but some of the second half drags a bit. 4/5.
Another amazing zep....
Immigrant Song 3 Friends 2.5 Celebration Day 3.5 (JH) Since I’ve Been Loving You 2.5 Out on the Tiles 4 (JH) Gallows Pole 3 Tangerine 2.5 That’s the Way 2.5 Bron-Y-Aur Stomp 2.5 Hats off To (Roy) Harper 1.5 Total 2.75
Has always been one of the few Zeppelin albums I actually really like! The switch-up into folk rock suits them really well, Jack White made a career trying to sound just like this record.
I really like Led Zeppelin and I really like folk-y type music, so I should love this...But honestly, I don't think it's that good. Since I've Been Loving you is a genuinely fantastic song (and completely different from the rest of the album). The Immigrant Song is silly but on brand. The rest of the album is folk-meets-Zeppelin. I really like the version of Gallows Pole, but most of the album just doesn't really work for me.
Veldig lei Gubberock nå.
I honestly did not listen to this completely because i did not feel like it, lol. but i guess i will do so one day... maybe.
immigrant song fuuuuucks!!!! enjoyed this overall. hell yeah
Good
This is great, just rocks a little harder than I personally prefer in everyday life. Once in a while of course it's a world-historic all-time rock album. But for me, it's generally one that I can appreciate periodically without necessarily ever loving.
Another better than I remember bunch of songs from a band I stupidly used to hate.
Immigrants Song is a really great way to start any album let alone a classic rock album . Plants whiny vocals fit perfect with acoustic guitars and is that a mandolin . Tolkien rock at its best
Had a good time
At times this is great, but at others it falls flat and struggles to get out of first gear. Still, it's never actually bad to listen to and I'd never tell someone to turn it off.
7/10
Best band of that era and that sound, but just not my cup of tea
Opener is een absolute banger. Rest viel beetje tegen
Heel hard en mooi maar ik denk dat die op een andere dag beter klinkt. Ik ga hem nabezoeken. Voor nu 2 bangers
Tror introen på "Immigrant Song" traff ganske bra i 1970, ja. Middels ellers.
Immigrant song - hit Some good vibes and others fillers
Two days after listening to it - I can't really remember much of it - So only a three
I feel the same way people seemed to feel when this first came out- I don't like it as much as the other Led Zeppelin albums I've heard. Favourite song: Out on the Tiles Least: Hats off To (Roy) Harper
Starting off strong. Thor Ragnarok. Great movie. Why is this so ominous. Something wicked this way comes. Hello? Lowkey this whole thing is evil as hell. If I was old when this came out I woulda thought it was the devil himself. Ok since you've been loving me. You sound very annoying tbh. You can stop being loving me. I'm ok with that. Lowkey unremarkable. Wait hold on. I can get behind this. This is good. Just hooting and hollering. Screeching and screaming. This guys blood pressure is probably through the roof omg. I like tangerines. My favourites are mini oranges. Ok pretty good not bad just unremarkable for me. Meh. Favourite: Immigrant Song Least favourite: Hats off To (Roy) Harper
Immigrant song singlehandedly carrying this extremely mid album
Hm. Irgendwie mehr vibes als Banger
A bit underwhelming. The acoustic songs lacked some variation to keep them interesting
Who up swinging from they gallows pole? Good!
que portada tan cool mis standouts: Immigrant Song, Since I've Been Loving You, Tangerine 7/10
I mean, it’s Led Zeppelin. They’re a big deal for a reason. For me, the beginning and end of the album were gripping and the middle lost me a bit. I vibe heavily with the intro on Friends–who else can make acoustic guitars go that hard?? Other stand-outs were Bron-Y-Aur Stomp—which did indeed have me stomping and clapping—and Hats Off to (Roy) Harper with its insane production and heavy blues influence.
Not as good as LZ IV
I'm not too upset that Led Zeppelin is seeming to be one of the bands that we will likely hear most of their discography by the time this is over. I think I like this slightly less than the last two that we've heard, but it was solid throughout, and the last three songs particularly piqued my interest. Strong 3 to a light 4
3.5/5
Some songs were quite good but most were not
wanted to like it a lot more than i did. drags quite a bit in the middle.
un classique j'ai reconnu beaucoup des melodies j'ai passé un moment pas désagréable je sais pas si je reecouterais
3 for led zeppelin 3. i did really like this and i love them in general but i'll be honest i'm probably only listening to "immigrant song" and "tangerine" from this album (the ones i already knew).
La mayoría de los temas en este disco me suenan a improvisaciones folk. Tendré que darle una segunda vuelta.
As a fan of Led Zepplin, I will honestly say this is not one of my favorites of theirs. Other than perhaps the Immigrant Song to me, I could pass over this album any day in favor of others. But I appreciate the relisten for this list.
The catchy songs didn't have anything to say, and the frilly songs weren't pretty enough to catch me as folk rock. For me this fell slightly tediously between two stools.
rym 3.78 Folk Rock/Hard Rock 噢第一张飞艇。真是那个年代的独有的风骚。但应该不是飞艇的名声该有的最高水准，期待后面的其他专辑。 pick: Since I've Been Loving You, Celebration Day
Starts off incredibly strong with Immigrant Song, then turns into an okay folk album. Weird pivot, but whatever. Favorite Track: Immigrant Song
The title is also the review. It’s Led Zeppelin. It’s a 3. It’s a high 3 but too much noodling and not enough substance to get it to a 4 for me.
A to to.
Started off strong but disappointed.
Couple of solid songs on here!
starting off strong with that one song from Shrek!! totally fine, not my thing but not awful 2.5 (rounded up to 3)
Not as good as other stuff, Tangerine and Immigrant songs are bangers
