Led Zeppelin's Debut Album Turns 50

Led Zeppelin has few peers on record in their fiery but brief career. Born from the crowded blues-rock wave, post-British Invasion 1960s, the band expertly and cleverly guess the tastes and whims of the growing music world and capitalized on them. Long gestated in Jimmy Page's brain as a way to create his own band with a distinct identity that could touch many music bases, but not be commercial and weak. Page created Led Zeppelin and the album Led Zeppelin I (Atlantic) on the back of years of writing, planning, and plotting. The marriage of Jimmy Page's writing and Robert Plant's voice, in particular, is the secret sauce of the album and the early era of the band and what makes their debut one of the all-time greats.

This album has been poured over and revisited over and over as the textbook debut album of all time. In addition to being a top musician who had experience touring and recording for years, Page was a master a seeing the big picture. He made Zep an amalgam of everything at the time that was hot in music and took it further than anyone else had. American roots Blues influences, cover songs, and soloing? Check. Impossibly great vocals and hooky melodies? Check. Folk music sensibilities and loud-soft dynamics? Check. Pre-heavy metal tube amp guitar sound and riffs that cut to your soul? Totally. Not too mention his own flair for the guitar experimentation and dramatics. Obviously, you had to have songs and execute these tracks well, and produce an album too just to get out there in the late 1960s, which they did. It helps to have master musicians, which we now know they did. Page and bassist John Paul Jones were known commodities in the scene, studio masters, and well-paid sidemen too. Plant and John Bonham were a bit more unknowns at the time, which made them exciting to see and hear them gain mass popularity.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-WSbMW7BPc The secret weapon of LZ I is the production. Page had spent years recording and producing studio sessions for other bands, and he used this to learn every trick in the book. Without a record deal, and because Page wanted total creative autonomy, the band recorded their debut in 1968 by themselves. They would deliver the complete recorded and mastered album to Atlantic upon signing their deal at the end of 1968. As the story goes, their infamous manager Peter Grant and Page paid for the sessions which were said to cost £1,782, or roughly over £16,000 today, adjusted for inflation. Along with engineer Glyn Johns, they pulled out all the stops creating the classic template for Zeppelin sound they used on the first few albums and was copied by tons of other bands. Distance miking, ambient sound, backward masking, delay and reverb, techniques, double tracking vocals, and lead guitar, all on top of a tight album that was recorded live in a room too! The album was also one of the first ever stereo only releases, being well ahead on that trend.

Then you have the songs. The band spent their time writing, honing, and performing these songs live for a year as the New Yardbirds. So when they went in to record, the band was tight and ready to go in as few takes as possible. From the sunny and atypical lead song/single 'Good Times, Bad Times', slow Blues of 'Dazed And Confused', the proto-Metal of Communication Breakdown', and the epic jam of 'How Many More Times' are all mind-blowing original classics and ragers. Willie Dixon, a well-known hero to Page gets two blazing covers with 'You Shook Me' and 'I Can't Quit You Baby', even though their other musical nods and quotes to him on this album and Led Zeppelin II got them sued for lack of credit. Lots of words have been incorrectly written about the 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave You'. Suffice to say their take is brilliant and presages the band influencing itself later on Led Zeppelin III and 'Stairway To Heaven' stylistically. 'Your Time Is Gonna' comes pastoral churchy organ and choir singing is a nice change of pace. Meanwhile, the instrumental 'Black Mountain Side' was piece Page had worked on for some time and hints at late era Zep's experimentation with world music and experimentalism. Fans of tabla music should take note of Viram Jasani's stellar performance here. https://open.spotify.com/album/1J8QW9qsMLx3staWaHpQmU Of course, the critics hated the album. Derided by every major press outlet at the time (similar to Sabbath), Zep's popularity at rock radio was unmatched at the time from the get-go. Without a true single, not pandering to the press, and the general mystique building of not playing the record industry game (with a lot of help from Peter Grant) the band built an organic fanbase on the strength of this album. While The Beatles and Cream were dissolving, rock stars started dying, and “the Summer Of Love” was on the horizon as the decade wore down, they were rising to fill the void. This was just the first chapter in their story, but for an album that is half-covers and some cleverly lifted riffs, this album is a beast and still stands the test of time.

Do you have an aging boomer at home? Are you concerned about his or her mental health? Signs of incipient dementia in an aging boomer include expressions like, “Led Zeppelin 3 is their most underrated album.” Okay, it is, but if you’re saying that you’re just getting old, man :). #ledzeppelin #ledzeppeliniii #1970 #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #vinyljunkie #vinyljunkies #music #rock #rockmusic #rocknroll #rockandroll #classicrock #hardrock #metal #heavymetal #folk #70s #70smusic #70srock #rockandromanticism #heavymetalandromanticism (at Manatee Cove) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfCSii2ukfL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

LED ZEPPELIN LED ZEPPELIN III

This quintessential classic rock group is best known for 8-track LPs that showcase in-studio experimentation, with their signature romp-’n’-stomp rhythm section, and their fuzzbox folk-blues sung in a roaring tenor voice. Best of compilations would generally include songs like “Whole Lotta Love”, “Rock and Roll”, “Heartbreaker”, and “Stairway to Heaven”, but this time the Zep went about this LP with a sideways step.

The record begins with that classic romp ‘n’ stomp bombast mentioned earlier with “Immigrant Song” then moves on to a quasi-psychedelic “Friends,” one of the most unique songs in the LZ catalog, and the first of its kind. Although Zeppelin has had experience doing acoustic songs, the benchmark track has a mystical Eastern feel, one whose melodic characteristics would not be found again until 1973 with Houses of the Holy. The album makes another turn into electric guitar country with “Celebration Day” and “Since I’ve Been Loving You”; the former put less emphasis on blues melodies and chord changes, while the latter is pretty much a straightforward, well-composed blues jam. The heavier, electric side ends with ”Out on the Tiles,” which sounds like something directly lifted from Led Zeppelin II.

Side Two marks the return of acoustically-oriented songwriting with “Gallows Pole,” not just with guitars, but with banjo, mandolin, and a fiddle thrown in the mix. “Tangerine” brings a country-folk flavor to the tracklist, reminiscent of Grateful Dead or Buffalo Springfield. The last three songs follow the same approach, but the mood and feel vary, and Jimmy Page still finds a few tricks to pull.

Overall the flow of the tracks is great, but I do find some flaws with this record. This record has arguably some of the best songs and some that leave the least impression. The main issue is, of course, the hard rockers. They aren’t necessarily bad, but at times they feel at odds with the songs that make the record special. If I could throw out one song, it would be “Out on the Tiles,” but then it would sort of throw the flow of the tracklist.

If I played this for someone who wants to learn more about classic rock, they could see why LZ3 didn’t sell very well, but I could easily invalidate that argument. Rock and roll were not and is not always about loud guitars. Even contemporaries like Black Sabbath knew this. This record showcases more of a sense of dynamics that the previous two Zeppelin records were aiming for but never attained, and the compositions couldn’t be lovelier. “That’s The Way,” in my opinion, is one of the most masterful works in the music genre ignored. This ultimately was a stepping stone for what many consider their magnum opus, Led Zeppelin IV.

I’m feeling a solid 5/7.

Keeping on with my Ls with #ledzeppelin - who are part of #blackhistorymonth #blm given their debts.

Since I came back from the last show, I wanted to listen to #immigrantsong (it has a link with the show I just saw), so I started listening to #ledzeppeliniii - and now, since two days, I’ve been obsessing on #outonthetiles at the end at 2:38 starts a #jimmypage #guitarriff #guitar #riff mixed with #johnbonham #drums and it sinks in your mind and you cannot get away from it, not only I have it in my mind but I can’t stop listening to it, which certainly doesn’t help! What is wrong with me? I’ve spent two weeks obsessing on the #blackdog riff and now this! I already heard these #musics before, why this craziness now? And no, I don’t want to go to a bar (meaning of the song) #ledzeppelin #craziness #icantescape and I certainly #cantexplain https://www.instagram.com/p/B49SVuUhkmz/?igshid=bx7l2su0q77n
