Led Zeppelin made their folky sound work extremely well in this piece of genius. We get a mixture of nice, calm songs like Going to California, and more hard-hitting tracks like Four Sticks. Stairway To Heaven is kind of the perfect summary to this album.

With their first album showcasing the potential of heavy rock, Led Zeppelin kept on going on their second release. It sure helps when you have some of the best instrumentalists ever plus the wonderful, unique voice of Robert Plant.

Imagine living in the 60s and listening this album for the first time. One of the most groundbreaking and loud pieces of music ever made, even the cover suggests you are in for a ride.

There was no way to go but down after their fourth studio album, but don't be fooled. This is still one of the greatest ever albums. There is only one significant weak song, and that is The Crunge. All other tracks are masterfully played, written and produced.

Nice chart! I don't know if you tried Gentle Giant, but based on your tastes, I think you might like it (Three Friends, Free Hand, Octopus, Gentle Giant). Also, have you heard "Time And A Word" from Yes? This album is crazy good!
