Customer Ratings & Reviews

When a CD comes along that brings back great memories of your childhood, grab it! The price is right and the quality great! Enjoy!

I was in 9th grade I think when this album came out and I was just learning who Led Zeppelin was. From my perspective, this was the first new Led Zeppelin music that I had ever heard -- everything else was well established. I remember hearing their hardcore fans complain about them "mellowing out". And I remember a DJ on the radio defending their need to expand into different musical styles and their right to mellow out if they wanted to. But good music is good music no matter what. The songs sounded great to me, especially "In the Evening" and "Carouselambra"; songs that seem influenced by Kashmir which I absolutely loved and still do to this day. I also think those songs were the template for much of Robert Plant's solo material. Anywho, if you're reading this you already like this album and want to buy it (probably re-buy it). When it first came out it had a brown paper cover. I never really figured out why since there is nothing risque about the actual cover.
