I wholeheartedly love this record. Bought in 1986, i was 16 yo. I think stairway to heaven is the worst song of them all. I know, i know most people love it. Rock and roll is the one i love the most - i mean it is THE DEFINITION of what rock’n’ roll is- also Going to California and Misty mountain. When I was younger, so much younger than today I enjoyed it. But now these days are gone, and i am pretty sure stairway to heaven is just boring. eg Four sticks is ten times better
The BEST band I have ever seen 'live' in 1972, Adelaide, South Australia. I was only one metre away from those huge speakers and their music was so loud I could not hear for several days thereafter. When Robert Plant first came out on stage he began with an apology to the fans by saying he had a cold and if he sounded not right to forgive him. Robert sounded perfect. As for Jimmy Page, drummer John Bonham (the best drummer of ALL TIME) and John Paul Jones, without any doubt was (and still is to this very day) the BEST Rock band of any generation. And the loudest as well. A concert that will live in my memory until the day I die. Led Zeppelin you ROCK. 👍🤘
I agree with everything you said. I was born in 75, but my soul was there. My all-time favorite band. All day every day is the right time for Led Zeppelin. If it is a religion I'm in. This band is everything to me. "In a tree by the Brooke, there's a songbird who sings. Ooh makes me wonder"
Led Zeppelin plays live like it's their last show.... every time! That's what bands should be all about! And Led Zeppelin delivers it like no other group!
One if the few regrets of my 70yo life ! I could hear this concert 1km away at Lord Melbourne pub, SHOULD have been at Memorial Drive venue ! "South Aussie John"
The bands now a days haven't got the mentality or the skills to produce quility like that ..of u were lucky enough to witness them in 1972 0r 1973 u were very lucky like I was
have you guys never heard of tool? whereas their music incorporates much heavier tones, it is well written and composed with ultra high quality production, heavily influenced by zeppelin as well as king crimson, yes, help and others. the members are each masters of their craft and go to the necessary extent to ensure the listener is never disappointed or left with the feeling that something is missing. many of the same elements that Influence their particular approach to music (speaking of each individual musician) are the same that influenced the musicians that influence their music, i.e.: numerology, sacred geometry, philosophy, magic, sigil magic, etc. if u can get past the heavy element, in the event that's not ur thing, u will find urself emersed in tones and frequencies that strike you as the type to have capabilities as originally mapped out in the first music created with the first musical instruments hypothesized and brought to fruition by pythagorus and company. u'll be exposed to Jungian references dealing with the psyche and man's archetypes, the science of the chakras and third eye matters, and many other deeper-than- surface rooted ideals. not ur typical modern prog-rock band

When this was released in November of '71, I was a senior in high school and already a devoted Zep fan. Bought this on 8-track, and ended up wearing out three copies while driving around. Even after 50+ years, it's still on top of my list.
I was sixteen, drinking beer (don't, kids) and just groovin on LZ with friends in the garage we set up for us. Neighbors put up with young people in those days. Bless them.
@@silky2916 Maybe you're too young to remember, or know about, 8-track tapes. They were cartridges containing a continuous loop of tape that would play over and over as long as you left it in the player. As weather conditions changed during the year, getting hotter and colder, the tape would stretch and/or break. If it stretched, it wouldn't play correctly making it sound slower. And there was no way to fix them, so your only option was to trash it and go buy a new one.
In the top five at least, hard to decide how to rank LZ1, LZ2, LZ4, Physical Graffiti, and Houses of the Holy. I'd probably put some Beatles album at #6
go read the book HAMMER OF THE GODS its all about zepplin . some great stories and details into the bands workings. one crazy drug fueled event after another
I'm 49 years old,a woman of Jamaican & Irish heritage, was introduced to Led Zeppelin by my first love when I was 14. Over my lifetime, I've almost craved this album at times. I feel the need to listen to it. For over 30 years!!. I know every word, sigh , guitar pluck. This album touches the deepest part of my soul. Simply sublime ❤🙏🔥
Black Sabbath was big in the 60's and early 70's however, people weren't interested so much with shock rock. The 70's was totally dominated by one band that was so huge that it defined the whole sound of that era: LED ZEPPELIN
These are facts and Led is my band hands down always has been and always will be, but I would give Pink Floyd a big nod because they represent the other avenue that was progressive rock. Led dominated their style of music as did Pink Floyd, but Led dominated the 70's.
In 1982, I was listening to a radio station, and it was about to play Stairway to Heaven, and the DJ said it was “the most requested song of the night”
Album oriented rock's most played song of the 70's. Before Stairway to Heaven record producers and radio stations kept songs at 3 or 4 minutes or the song would not be a hit.
As a kid in the 70's, this was the first album I ever purchased. It was a small store called 'Records and Stuff'. (Stuff... was posters, T-shirts, band buttons, incense and a little room with a glass case containing rolling papers and other adult paraphernalia). 😉 I really wish the internet generation could experience what it was like to carry an album under your arm in a tight brown paper sleeve, opening it, smelling it, reading it, staring at the art work. It was a ritual. And then you played that damn thing forever, getting to know every song. It was always deep listening. And then you saved some money again for the next purchase. If you had 50 albums? Damn... you were the shit.
I agree. 1970s albums are works of art and led zeppelin's albums had interactive components that could never be experienced online (specifically zeppelin 3 and physical graffiti) Vinyl is the best way to listen to music
Oh yeah, I would go through the albums and try musicians I’d never heard of and go through the ritual of reading the liner notes, looking at each inch of the cover art, found so many treasures in that magical era. When this album was released, I was already a fan, I played it over and over enjoying each note. I saw them 1973 in concert, I was 13 and mature for my age. So grateful to have been young in that timeframe.
Too Many to say there were so many Great Groups through the '70,s so extremely hard to even Contemplate who was Best they were all Great in their own sense of Music they all Played, No Winners nor Losers they were All Great.!!!
Don't forget about Argent, Jethro Tull, BTO, April Wine, Chilliwack, T Rex, Marianne Faithfull and so Many Others of the '70's era not necessarily Hard Rock but Rocking just the Same.!!!
I also came up with the same conclusion, and not only because I was born this year. (So I won't try to enumerate all the albums that come to my mind, it would be a vain exercise). Seems that there must have been a alignment of planets, then it all came to a mess within the 4 next years...
@Pierre-André Iff I have a running list of over 30 albums released in 1971 that consists of all time rock classics, watershed lps, career-best lps for the artist, etc. It's just MIND-BLOWING that all these albums came out in one year. Just an example- Led Zep- IV, The Who- Who's Next, Rolling Stones- Sticky Fingers, Jethro Tull- Aqualung, John Lennon- Imagine, Neil Young- After The Gold Rush, Traffic- Low Spark Of High-Heeled Boys, The Doors- LA Woman, Janis Joplin- Pearl, Joni Mitchell- Blue, Carol King- Tapestry, Rod Stewart- Every Picture Tells A Story, Marvin Gaye- What's Goin' On, Black Sabbath- Master of Reality, Yes- Fragile, Yes- The Yes Album, Don McLean- American Pie, Allman Brothers Band- Live At the Fillmore East, T-Rex- Electric Warrior, Paul McCartney- Ram, Ringo Starr released his best single ever- It Don't Come Easy, Harry Nilsson- Nilssion Schmilsson. And the top selling album for 1971 was an album released near the end of 1970- George Harrison's epic masterpiece All Things Must Pass. The album ended up being the Number One selling album for 1971, and took home countless awards, including the Grammy for Album of the Year- 1971. Simply an unprecedented year in music.

This album was my very first time listening to Led Zeppelin as a teenager in "83.. a classmate played me Stairway to Heaven, black dog, & rock and roll.. and that changed my life! Slowly but surely I got to know the magic that is Led Zeppelin ❤️❤️ Fifty years later I'm a Zeppephile owning all album's greatest hits, etc... along with the huge amount of concert footage both audio and video ❤️❤️❤️
A friend of mine in High school (1981) played in a band that covered Led Zeppelin, Rush, The Doors, etc. His name is Rob Kopler. His dad Rob Sr. Worked for KDKA in Pittsburgh PA. He was friends with Peter Grant! We used to get little tidbits of information about Led Zeppelin from him! Good times! 😎✌️🎸🎶🎶
@@hydrangeablue8928 I wish I had a time machine! (Don't we all!) On a side note, look up Samantha Fish! She has a channel on UA-cam. I've seen her 5 times since 2019.

Also on her channel, you can listen to all of her albums. Enjoy! Also look up Girls with Guitars with Samantha Fish and Dani Wilde. 😎✌️
Woman age 65...from the age of 13, I was sold. Saw them once and had tickets for another but tragedy struck a few months before...RIP John Henry Bonham. My youngest at 35 has tattoos of this albums symbols down her side. My nephews in their 20s are also fans. Timeless, except for my dad used to name every band we listened to Led Purple, or Pink Zeppelin.
lol… Dads, Gotta love em! Mine would walk through the room as I was playing an album and say “I wouldn’t walk across the street to see em if it was free” lol
I didn't even know who they were until I really listened to them in the 2000s (had heard dad and his friend play them before in the 90's and heard them mentioned by a few guys in my Scout troop... the greatest rock group (who didn't always do rock) Need to ge my turntable going and get my dad records up here... he had all four first editions 🙂
I still.have a lot of respect for led zeppelin.the best thing they could of done .they did..when we lost John.the brakes went on and the doors were closed for ever .out of respect for John.. of led zeppelin is not all origional then...respect John and walk away
In 1988 my best friend at school gave me a tape. It had Dark Side of the Moon on one side and this album on the other. It influenced just about everything I like in music since. He died of a brain tumour in 2009. Thanks, my friend. I still have the tape.
So true Sir. This is actually one of the main reasons why I never enjoyed other bands of that time as much as I enjoyed Zep. Stones for example, terrible drum sound all over.

A group of us in radio broadcasting always had a list of the albums that were great from beginning to end- no filler, no weak songs. The short list had albums such as Bruce's Born to Run, Fleetwood Mac Rumours, Jethro Tull Aqualung, The Stones Sticky Fingers, and others. Within that list, we narrowed down those incredible albums to a special few that were the best of the best: The Who-Who's Next, FMac-Rumours, Beatles-Abbey Road, Pink Floyd-Dark Side Of The Moon, and of course- Led Zep IV. Those five were usually picked as the most perfect LPs ever made from start to finish.
This my 2nd ever album purchased as a 13yr old after Mott the Hoople all the young dudes and Led Zep had my mother threatening eviction from my upstairs bedroom 😅❤
this has to be THE BEST ALBUM EVER!!!!!! from the day it was released to today, I don't think there is a better album, and to survive the times, this is the GREATEST !!
You're the second person who made that same comment. I do not doubt we will be discovering these guys over and over again no different than Bach or Beethoven. Zeppelin has written some of the most complex pieces of music that the world has ever heard. No doubt. Like watching Jimmy Page play with a violin bow on How many more times and Dazed and confused. The sounds he made with that violin bow are legendary and I bet that aint easy.
В 70х жил в Узбекистане.Каждую осень на месяц нас забирали на сбор хлопка.И вечером,после трудового дня,мы ставили кассеты на Романтик-3,и накурившись ложились слушать Лед Зепеллин, Дип перпл, Пинг Флойд,Блэк Сэбэт...На какой же прекрасной музыке мы росли!
Response to Julio. I was born in 65 . I didn’t have a big brother but my best friend did. It was 1977 and we were listening to am radio. His brother asked us if we heard the new FM station in Toronto. Two twelve year old kids with blank stares gave the answer. He invited us to listen to the station and we heard Lef Zeppelin and Nugent and a lot of other stuff that AM radio wasn’t playing . Thank you Matthew
The Battle of Evermore is so underrated and so good. It brings me memories of the CountrySide, here in Romania we have very beautiful countryside areas with hills and farms and what-not
And the Levee the best closer. Indeed this album is just about as close to absolute perfection as can be achieved. It is the pinnacle of the British Blues Rock form and sits comfortably upon its lofty perch far above any other.. Zeppelin always took care to bookend their albums with Barnburners. They understood the concept of grabbing the listener's attention quickly, right out of the gate, for we humans tend to have terribly short attention spans. And just as important is the climactic ending, always wow them in the end. Jimmy Page was always thinking cinematically, nothing about Zeppelin was ever left to chance or accident. The track listings were always analyzed and deliberately ordered for a certain flow. And did I see someone say that Black Dog was a "weak" opener?...? I must own that I am not wholly sure how to respond to this. 🤔 I think it best to keep my personal feelings off the screen on this matter so as not to reveal the lower aspects of my character or to make known the fact that I am quite drunk. I will however venture so far as to say that I believe you to be in a very small minority in regards to this opinion, perhaps even alone.
I agree. Zeppelin changed rock music beyond recognition with this album. Remember drinking in my youth and listening to these tracks like it was a Bible. My father didn't agree but he was a operatic man. You can't but love this music for it is special to millions of people around the world. Listen to Rammstien now as a source of inspiration but Zep stand laid the foundation.
I was born in July of 72, and this was released in November 71.. I'm about 99% positive that I was conceived while my parents listened to this album for the first time
In the movie Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Mike Damone tells Mark “Rat” Ratner, “When it comes down to making out, whenever possible, put on side one of 'Led Zeppelin IV'".
I was born almost exactly a year after this album was released. I missed the exact release date by two days. Now, it's one of my favorite albums of all time. What a coincidence.
If there's a Led Zeppelin song everybody knows, whether you're a Led Zeppelin fan or not, it would have to be: Stairway to Heaven, Ramble On, Black Dog, Thank you, and Since I've Been Loving You
I remember my older sister buying this album in the fall of 1971 and dropping the needle on side 1 for the first time. I was a little kid and the sounds coming from the stereo terrified me and thrilled me in equal measure.
Led Zeppelin made art that went down in history and will last for a long time; each song has its own identity, like paintings at an exhibition. We understand the style of the band, but each job is unique. Led Zeppelin IV is a masterpiece. Unbeliveble...wonderful! ( Give to the LZ members a large amount of firewood and just one matchstick: that's enough for them to light a big fire. In the heads of geniuses, a grain of sand can become a dune. Take a good look at Jimmy Page's riffs. It is an example? )
Wonderful description! I would just add a touch of boldness, weirndess and mystery : neither title or artist name written on the cover, not to mention that Sandy Denny got her own symbol in the inner sleeve. Then we get the big picture, and we can fully appreciate this quintessential monolith, that stands the test of time (a reminder of "2001, the Space Odyssey" or an anticipation of The Object in Presence?)
The greatest tribute you can give to Zeppelin is that …Every single song of Zeppelins collection is somebody’s fan favourite somewhere….you simply cannot say that about any other band on earth..Period! Four incredible musicians! Wow! Levee is best for me!
I heard this album for the first time in 1976 when I was in junior high school. Knowing only aerosmith, kiss, angel and rainbow, I had a clear awakening to rock music.
@@АлександрСтафиевских-с5д В этом смысле однозначно да, у меня этот винил вообще слушать уже не возможно, шумы, скрипы, подскоки...так, стоит на полке - для понтов больше))🤪
Think you have your years slightly off. This album was released in 1971 and zeppelin didn’t play live in 1974. Maybe you saw them at the forum in 71? They played there August of that year.
This is the pure stuff. A lot of folks can't handle a full dose. It is hard to think that these four guys produced so much great music; truly they were a miracle.

Don't forget about Argent, Jethro Tull, BTO, April Wine, Chilliwack, T Rex, Marianne Faithfull and so Many Others of the '70's era not necessarily Hard Rock but Rocking just the Same.!!!
Greatest album of all time.
The 4th album is my favorite but as for their BEST album I'd leave that one to Presence.
And it came out in 1971- the greatest year of music in rock history. No other year is even close.
I also came up with the same conclusion, and not only because I was born this year. (So I won't try to enumerate all the albums that come to my mind, it would be a vain exercise).
Seems that there must have been a alignment of planets, then it all came to a mess within the 4 next years...
@Pierre-André Iff I have a running list of over 30 albums released in 1971 that consists of all time rock classics, watershed lps, career-best lps for the artist, etc. It's just MIND-BLOWING that all these albums came out in one year.
Just an example- Led Zep- IV, The Who- Who's Next, Rolling Stones- Sticky Fingers, Jethro Tull- Aqualung, John Lennon- Imagine, Neil Young- After The Gold Rush, Traffic- Low Spark Of High-Heeled Boys, The Doors- LA Woman, Janis Joplin- Pearl, Joni Mitchell- Blue, Carol King- Tapestry, Rod Stewart- Every Picture Tells A Story, Marvin Gaye- What's Goin' On, Black Sabbath- Master of Reality, Yes- Fragile, Yes- The Yes Album, Don McLean- American Pie, Allman Brothers Band- Live At the Fillmore East, T-Rex- Electric Warrior, Paul McCartney- Ram, Ringo Starr released his best single ever- It Don't Come Easy, Harry Nilsson- Nilssion Schmilsson.
And the top selling album for 1971 was an album released near the end of 1970- George Harrison's epic masterpiece All Things Must Pass. The album ended up being the Number One selling album for 1971, and took home countless awards, including the Grammy for Album of the Year- 1971.
Simply an unprecedented year in music.

My humble opinion the greatest album of all time Led Zeppelin IV
For me is In utero since I’m a huge nirvana fan
LZ 2
For me is The Dark Side Of The Moon (But isn't my personal favorite)
Rob Plant one of the best senses of humor of his time!
Pet Sounds
The Greatest Album of all time
I trust on LED and Trump...💪
This album was my very first time listening to Led Zeppelin as a teenager in "83.. a classmate played me Stairway to Heaven, black dog, & rock and roll.. and that changed my life! Slowly but surely I got to know the magic that is Led Zeppelin ❤️❤️
Fifty years later I'm a Zeppephile owning all album's greatest hits, etc... along with the huge amount of concert footage both audio and video ❤️❤️❤️
Literally same story for me except it was 86. 👍
A friend of mine in High school (1981) played in a band that covered Led Zeppelin, Rush, The Doors, etc. His name is Rob Kopler. His dad Rob Sr. Worked for KDKA in Pittsburgh PA. He was friends with Peter Grant! We used to get little tidbits of information about Led Zeppelin from him! Good times! 😎✌️🎸🎶🎶

Also on her channel, you can listen to all of her albums. Enjoy! Also look up Girls with Guitars with Samantha Fish and Dani Wilde. 😎✌️

I heard it sitting around a campfire 31 years ago and haven't had a campfire since without listening to it....
underrared??????????????? lmao
bellissima
quite agreed, never understand why never came across one of the best Zeppelin song, may be quite folk in it.dont know.
I can never make up my mind which album I like the most. I guess I need to settle for "the last one I listened to".
Happy to have been a 70s kid when all this epic music was being made. Great stuff till the sun ☀️ explodes!
Right on man!
I didn't even know who they were until I really listened to them in the 2000s (had heard dad and his friend play them before in the 90's and heard them mentioned by a few guys in my Scout troop... the greatest rock group (who didn't always do rock)
Need to ge my turntable going and get my dad records up here... he had all four first editions 🙂
You got it so right Bro
Any day now 🎉❤😢😮😅😊😢
😂okay 👌 and ❤🎉😅
I still.have a lot of respect for led zeppelin.the best thing they could of done .they did..when we lost John.the brakes went on and the doors were closed for ever .out of respect for John.. of led zeppelin is not all origional then...respect John and walk away
In 1988 my best friend at school gave me a tape. It had Dark Side of the Moon on one side and this album on the other. It influenced just about everything I like in music since. He died of a brain tumour in 2009. Thanks, my friend. I still have the tape.
Rock on!
Lamento pela morte de seu amigo 😢, ele deixou seu legado na terra, descansa em paz .
My favorite Led Zeppelin album! But I do love all of their albums.
One of the best albums ever, if not the best.
The greatest rock band that ever rocked planet Earth.
They laid a foundation made of rock.
best harmonica in rock too
I love led zeppelin but if I am not mistaken the Rolling Stones is the longest time being together
@@siobhanvictorian3669 doesn't make them better.
Indeed🎉🎉🎉🎉
Such a Masterpiece. No one. I mean literally no other classic rock band captured a better drum sound than LZ did. Heavy, Powerful and satisfying.
So true Sir. This is actually one of the main reasons why I never enjoyed other bands of that time as much as I enjoyed Zep. Stones for example, terrible drum sound all over.
@@Andey1954 I never liked stones to be honest. Too boring.
me too
СУПЕР АЛЬБОМ,ОДИН ИЗ ЛУЧШИХ!!!
Agreed... "SUPER ALBUM, ONE OF THE BEST" :)
очень супер.
супернее нет!!
В далёком 1973 г, услышал свемовской бобоне этот альбом, а сторона Б машн хед дип перпл, до сих пор оба в десятке самых любимых моих альбомов
This sounds clearer than the other mixes I’ve heard at least 1,000,000 times
I feel bad for this generation. Not having the awesome great music that we did
Rock music will become popular again someday.
ROCK AND ROLL will never die!
Every generation says something similar.
I totaly agree first time i heard Zep my hair stood up 77 now no hair to stand up ..those years were awsome !!!!!!

Started to listen to Led Zeppelin songs in 1982. They are the greatest band ever
That’s about the same time I started listening to them as well. Great times.
Coda was released in November of that year.
A group of us in radio broadcasting always had a list of the albums that were great from beginning to end- no filler, no weak songs. The short list had albums such as Bruce's Born to Run, Fleetwood Mac Rumours, Jethro Tull Aqualung, The Stones Sticky Fingers, and others. Within that list, we narrowed down those incredible albums to a special few that were the best of the best: The Who-Who's Next, FMac-Rumours, Beatles-Abbey Road, Pink Floyd-Dark Side Of The Moon, and of course- Led Zep IV. Those five were usually picked as the most perfect LPs ever made from start to finish.
add Supertramp Crime of the Century to that list will ya?
Shame you put the stones in that list...They suck.
This my 2nd ever album purchased as a 13yr old after Mott the Hoople all the young dudes and Led Zep had my mother threatening eviction from my upstairs bedroom 😅❤
Nothing like a Friday night with Led Zeppelin 😁
Only Friday? LOL
Thursday’s aren’t too shabby either.
Yeah, today happens to be Fri so, I agree for the day part.
this has to be THE BEST ALBUM EVER!!!!!! from the day it was released to today, I don't think there is a better album, and to survive the times, this is the GREATEST !!
I think so too
FOUR STICKS!!!!! I love the way the rhythm alternates between 5/8 for the main riff and 3/8 for the bridges and chorus. Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!
A full orchestra makes Four Sticks wicked and beautiful. Legendary.
Its an acid trip without the acid. Fabulous!
Its the most prog zeppelin gets, imo and its wild to hear the inspiration on other groups, its a great getup song and mind melt in the third act
I don’t know what that means but I agree with you.
When I was 14 years old, this was the first album I bought in my life. More than 45 years later, I still keep it carefully.
You're the second person who made that same comment. I do not doubt we will be discovering these guys over and over again no different than Bach or Beethoven. Zeppelin has written some of the most complex pieces of music that the world has ever heard. No doubt. Like watching Jimmy Page play with a violin bow on How many more times and Dazed and confused. The sounds he made with that violin bow are legendary and I bet that aint easy.
Damn, you never thrashed it? Ever?

В 70х жил в Узбекистане.Каждую осень на месяц нас забирали на сбор хлопка.И вечером,после трудового дня,мы ставили кассеты на Романтик-3,и накурившись ложились слушать Лед Зепеллин, Дип перпл, Пинг Флойд,Блэк Сэбэт...На какой же прекрасной музыке мы росли!
Long Live Rock'n'Roll...
Response to Julio. I was born in 65 . I didn’t have a big brother but my best friend did. It was 1977 and we were listening to am radio. His brother asked us if we heard the new FM station in Toronto. Two twelve year old kids with blank stares gave the answer. He invited us to listen to the station and we heard Lef Zeppelin and Nugent and a lot of other stuff that AM radio wasn’t playing . Thank you Matthew
The Battle of Evermore is so underrated and so good. It brings me memories of the CountrySide, here in Romania we have very beautiful countryside areas with hills and farms and what-not
Led Zeppelins complete album collection belongs in every residence over the whole world..............
Agree 👍.
Black Dog has gotta be the best album opener of all time
Whole Lotta Love, Immigrant Song, Good Times Bad Times. Led Zeppelin is under appreciated for all their absolutely killer album openers.
its the weakest out of Led Zeppelin I - IV though, Whole Lotta Love, Immigrant song are their best openers
And the Levee the best closer. Indeed this album is just about as close to absolute perfection as can be achieved. It is the pinnacle of the British Blues Rock form and sits comfortably upon its lofty perch far above any other.. Zeppelin always took care to bookend their albums with Barnburners. They understood the concept of grabbing the listener's attention quickly, right out of the gate, for we humans tend to have terribly short attention spans. And just as important is the climactic ending, always wow them in the end. Jimmy Page was always thinking cinematically, nothing about Zeppelin was ever left to chance or accident. The track listings were always analyzed and deliberately ordered for a certain flow. And did I see someone say that Black Dog was a "weak" opener?...? I must own that I am not wholly sure how to respond to this. 🤔 I think it best to keep my personal feelings off the screen on this matter so as not to reveal the lower aspects of my character or to make known the fact that I am quite drunk. I will however venture so far as to say that I believe you to be in a very small minority in regards to this opinion, perhaps even alone.
My go to road tunes
I agree. Zeppelin changed rock music beyond recognition with this album. Remember drinking in my youth and listening to these tracks like it was a Bible. My father didn't agree but he was a operatic man. You can't but love this music for it is special to millions of people around the world. Listen to Rammstien now as a source of inspiration but Zep stand laid the foundation.
Can I say... The Led Zeppelin album that tears your soul apart and rebuild your soul? This album is such an instant replay!
OMG Led Zeppelin gods!!Definitely one of the best albums ever, long live hard rock and led zeppelin💪
I was born in July of 72, and this was released in November 71.. I'm about 99% positive that I was conceived while my parents listened to this album for the first time
In the movie Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Mike Damone tells Mark “Rat” Ratner, “When it comes down to making out, whenever possible, put on side one of 'Led Zeppelin IV'".
Yó nací en el 58 y sigo escuchándolos con mis CD y cassetes,saludos a todos sus seguidores
I was born almost exactly a year after this album was released. I missed the exact release date by two days. Now, it's one of my favorite albums of all time. What a coincidence.
If there's a Led Zeppelin song everybody knows, whether you're a Led Zeppelin fan or not, it would have to be: Stairway to Heaven, Ramble On, Black Dog, Thank you, and Since I've Been Loving You
You left out KASHMIR
Before Led Zeppelin you had rock.
When Zep came along you had ROCK.
My first and favorite Led Zeppelin record I’ve bought, such a great album!!
My first rock concert was Zeppelin 1973.
The battle of evermore... the best folksong ever written!!!!
This Album Is The Perfect Representation of Zep Music. Sonically, Lyrically And Artistically.
You're talking about When The Levee Breaks. Wow.
I can't believe that I would come home in the afternoon after school, put this record on, and go to sleep. I wish it was that easy now.
I remember my older sister buying this album in the fall of 1971 and dropping the needle on side 1 for the first time. I was a little kid and the sounds coming from the stereo terrified me and thrilled me in equal measure.
Best Album ever!!!!!!!!!
Шедеврально!!!!!
Led Zeppelin made art that went down in history and will last for a long time; each song has its own identity, like paintings at an exhibition. We understand the style of the band, but each job is unique.
Led Zeppelin IV is a masterpiece. Unbeliveble...wonderful!
( Give to the LZ members a large amount of firewood and just one matchstick: that's enough for them to light a big fire.
In the heads of geniuses, a grain of sand can become a dune.
Take a good look at Jimmy Page's riffs. It is an example? )
Wonderful description!
I would just add a touch of boldness, weirndess and mystery : neither title or artist name written on the cover, not to mention that Sandy Denny got her own symbol in the inner sleeve.
Then we get the big picture, and we can fully appreciate this quintessential monolith, that stands the test of time (a reminder of "2001, the Space Odyssey" or an anticipation of The Object in Presence?)
The greatest tribute you can give to Zeppelin is that …Every single song of Zeppelins collection is somebody’s fan favourite somewhere….you simply cannot say that about any other band on earth..Period! Four incredible musicians! Wow! Levee is best for me!
The best thing about these guys is they never made a bad song
So far a quadrilogy of masterpiece albums and more to come ... 🎉😊
Incredible accomplishment the music moves you 😮
I heard this album for the first time in 1976 when I was in junior high school. Knowing only aerosmith, kiss, angel and rainbow, I had a clear awakening to rock music.
I listen to led zeppelin everyday.❤️✌️💋
I have loved them for 40 years!
When the levee breaks is one of the greatest album closers ever
Such great music in the 70’s. It was a wonderful time to be in high school and college.
arguably the best British Rock album of all time....blows "houses of the Holy" away with the opening track alone!

This came out in my senior year of high school in California 73~74. Got to see em at the Forum in Nov 74, UNFORGETTABLE !!!
1971
Think you have your years slightly off. This album was released in 1971 and zeppelin didn’t play live in 1974. Maybe you saw them at the forum in 71? They played there August of that year.
This is the pure stuff. A lot of folks can't handle a full dose. It is hard to think that these four guys produced so much great music; truly they were a miracle.
Yes they just need some Zed in life
Perfect L.P, lovely album, magic music! Thank you Led Zeppelin!
