Zeppelin’s Ahmet Ertegun-honouring O2 Arena reunion show was a triumph, final proof that, if necessary, Zeppelin could still do Zeppelin. BUT LED ZEPPELIN 1ST On Japanese Nippon With Mispelt Cover and Insert 'And OBI All in Great Nick Is Hard To Find . Clocking in at nearly an hour, the new material was so provocative, diverse and at times bludgeoningly heavy that rather than prune off a single track to fit on to one 40-minute album, they reworked unused tunes from their previous three records and released Physical Graffiti as a double album.Robert Plant: “That was the album that was going to dictate whether or not we had the staying power and the capacity to stimulate.

Black Sabbath, meanwhile, would bolt it’s powerchord chugging to the breakdown in Dazed And Confused to come up with Paranoid. And then, of course, there’s Immigrant Song – one of the heaviest and most exciting tracks in the band’s entire catalogue. While Your Time Is Gonna Come, the third of the three originals on the album, is something else again: a wonderfully understated pop song built, in the fashion of the time, around a Bach fugue, played by Jones, then swept into a completely different musical zone by Page’s pedal steel guitar – an instrument he had literally picked up in the studio that day and begun to play.Meanwhile his star-jumping jousting partner David Lee Roth was taking the Golden God template created by Plant to an entirely new level.

Forum and Long Beach Arena respectively) were extensively bootlegged, they’d never been heard quite like this. Original remastered LP, plus an album of companion audio, on 180 gram vinyl in a tri-fold sleeve that includes the wheel and die-cut holes from the original LP sleeve. Whichever way you look at it, when In Through The Out Door was released in August 1979 the musical climate was plain wrong. The Beck version is short and gimmicky, while the Zeppelin version is almost three times as long, portentous, with swampy bottleneck guitar more redolent of the original’s swooning rhythms, while Page’s guitar solo is fluid, haunting and mysterious, not bitty or showy like Beck’s. With its haunting ambiguity, the song could be about class, racism, homosexuality or even ecological disaster.

And before you could say ‘swiftly signed to Atlantic, relentlessly toured’, they were the World’s Biggest Band that, for some reason, nobody you knew had ever seen on television.Surprisingly, the band never scored a number 1 single in the UK or the US, but Whole Lotta Love topped the charts in Australia and Denmark, and was top 10 in Canada, Germany, Holland, New Zealand, Switzerland and the US.
