Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin

This happens to be the first album the 1001 albums generator suggested to me. I'm going to take a very subjective approach to rating, not trying to assess the artistic value in some objective sense, but just how the music resonated with me. From this perspective, I have to say: It did not resonate with me at all. Maybe it is because this album was released a few years before I was born and I have not experienced its context, I find myself unable to relate to this style of music. I just don't "get" it.
