  • Is this the greatest album of all time? The fourth Led Zeppelin album was released without a title. It is known variously as Four Symbols, Runes and Led Zeppelin IV but whatever you call it it’s undoubtedly a work of genius that has stood the test of time brilliantly.
    An analysis of Led Zeppelin's fourth album, which was released without a title and thus goes by many names, but which is undoubtedly a work of genius.
    The untitled fourth studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin, commonly known as Led Zeppelin IV, was released on 8 November 1971 by Atlantic Records. It was produced by guitarist Jimmy Page and recorded between December 1970 and February 1971, mostly in the country house Headley Grange. The album is notable for featuring "Stairway to Heaven", which has been described as the band's signature song.
    The informal setting at Headley Grange inspired the band, allowing them to try different arrangements of material and create songs in various styles. After the band's previous album Led Zeppelin III received lukewarm reviews from critics, they decided their fourth album would officially be untitled and would be represented instead by four symbols chosen by each band member, without featuring the name or any other details of the cover. Unlike the prior two albums, the band was joined by some guest musicians, such as vocalist Sandy Denny on "The Battle of Evermore", and pianist Ian Stewart on "Rock and Roll". As with prior albums, most of the material was written by the band, though there was one cover song, a hard rock re-interpretation of the Memphis Minnie blues song "When the Levee Breaks".
    The album was a commercial and critical success and is Led Zeppelin's best-selling album, shipping over 37 million copies worldwide. It is one of the best-selling albums in the US, and critics have regularly placed it highly on lists of the greatest albums of all time. In 2010, Led Zeppelin IV was one of ten classic album covers from British artists commemorated on a UK postage stamp issued by the Royal Mail.

      It has a real cozy countryside vibe to it. Like hip people hangin in the sticks. Everyone was harsh to them, especially Rolling Stone. Think they called them over rated, over applauded? Talk about the pot calling the kettle weed. Critics are wanna be washed up musicians that always look for what they don't like instead of letting what is amazing through. I give them about as much credibility and trust as a politician. I think that's an accurate assessment. I can't name a favorite Zeppelin album. They are all phenomenal. Find myself wandering to LZlll often. Thank you Bonzo, JPJ, Plant and Zofo for all the wonderful amazing memories.

    Would love to see a good video about the manager Peter Grant, he was the guiding force behind the band and stood up for them above anyone else. So many singers and groups have or had bad management, Peter fought for his guys and made them and himself very well off. Thanks for this, excellent documentary.

    John Bonham’s approach and sound on drums is as identifiable as a Fender Stratocaster slung over the shoulder of Jimi Hendrix. Is it not? Discussions I’m sure have gone on long into the wee hours - til sunup, about how John achieved his sound. He played like the equivalent of how a boxer dances around the ring - light on his feet, then heavy when called for. He was a master blues drummer. Dig deep into the versions of You Shook Me from the BBC Sessions and listen closely to his playing. It’s remarkable to say the least and his timing impeccable. Fast forward to live renditions of Kashmir from the ‘77 tour and listen to the long, drawn out ending of the opus. Then, try to think of potential candidates for his replacement if auditions were ever held after his passing. Could Phil Collins ever make Kashmir sound like Kashmir? The answer is NO. Could Cozy pull it off? Possibly…but...I’m glad auditions weren’t ever held. There’s no way you could replace John…and have Zeppelin sound like Zeppelin. Without him there is no Zeppelin. When john left us, he took Led Zeppelin with him. Rest In Peace, dear friend.

    Led Zeppelin 4 was my first real Zeppelin experience. Once I got into it, HOTH the PG took over. Then the discovery of LZ 1, II, and III. Then came Presence. This all happened in the summer of 1976 as a 9/10 year old young man learning guitar and drums. This band and their music changed everything for me. I had to mow a whole lotta lawns that summer to start my LZ album collection, but by the time the summer was done, I had the entire catalog up to that point. I got TSRTS for Christmas that year, and the following year, my uncle took to me to see LZ. First and only time to see them live. ITTOD came out in 1979 and I received that on my birthday. THere was no internet back then, but the owner of the record store I frequented told me that LZ was going to be touring the US again in 1980/1981. Obviously, Bonhams death prevented that. Today, I am 56 years old. I spend many hours a week with LZ playing. By far my favorite band of all time and none other is even close. Maybe the Who and the Stones and the Beattles depending on the day of week or time of day, but the Might Led Zeppelin still reigns supreme. All that and a lifetime of memories with this music started with that whirring sound right before Black Dog on LZ4. BTW, my 9yo son discovered LZ on his own and listens to them now.

    I had this album/CD. Once my good friend Margaret (she and I worked together) after work we walked out to the parking lot together. We had a particularly hard day at work. We worked for a company that made aircraft parts for planes. We both worked on the McDonald Douglas team. Our parts were delayed. We were “planners” which meant we kept track of the parts and moved them through the shop/plant floor from station to station and conveyed that information to our customer. None of the parts they wanted were nowhere near ready to ship. And of course they needed them yesterday. So very stressful. We walked out to my car, got in, put on “still of the night.” We blasted that song so loud. And we just unwound from the day. Then, played “here I go again” and continued our letting go of the day and de-stressing. It was perfect. Then outta nowhere our bosses came walking up with that grin on their faces like “we’ve heard y’all and seen y’all”. We were embarrassed as they had to of heard for sure. And I’m sure they saw us singing and playing our air guitars and drums. We probably turned every shade of red. But, it was a good time. They never said a word about it. It was awesome. I was twenty three then. I’m fifty nine now. Great memory.

      "Underrated" is not the same as "underappreciated". At least among musicians and those who understand music he is highly rated. He might not have commanded the attention that Page, Plant and Bonzo did on stage but they also called George Harrison "the quiet one" while he was writing some of their best material.

      Great comments. JPJ is, above all, a "musician's musician". The more you know and understand about music, the higher you rate/appreciate him.
      The beauty is, you don't need to know a single thing about music theory to know that he's simply "bluddyBrilliant", and basically two musicians in one.

    I've been a guitar player for fifty years, and have learned and played both solos. They're nothing alike. Page's is visceral, scintillating, and sets the standard for every guitar player to meet. Hendrix's is just as, in his own way. They are both landmarks.

    When The Levee Breaks was written about the Great Flood of 1927 that all but wiped out New Orleans, and alot of other places, by Memphis Minnie & her husband, Kansas Joe McCoy. Zeppelin turned it into a masterpiece, and Minnie was given credit; she at that time was in care home in Louisiana and royalties kept her from being kicked out.

Open your mind and you will find some more that find the spot, Greatest of them all… how about Back In Black? Or Nevermind… Nirvana or something from Queen?
      There are a bunch of a very good album in the seventies, eighties and even nineties that earned that we’ll all name “the best”. To me, Led Zeppelin III makes me feel good and if I close my eyes and just flew away with my hair loose in the wind… is that the best album ever….? No, the best is to come 😂❤❤ but it’s my opinion

    Stairway is a mostly personal song to many. It’s a “where were you when you first heard it” song. But it invokes deep, even subconscious, emotions unique to the individual listener. For me, among its ownership of my attention, it set the table for my love of another genre, Prog Rock. It opened the door of acceptance for a genre I had been ignoring. That’s just one of the meaningful things, influences, feelings it brought to me. Thanks for the interesting video.

    Going to California, what can I say? Just that to me, the Greatest acoustic guitar song ever recorded. Of course, I'm just a 'little' prejudiced, being as it's been homebase for 70+ years. Hahahahah!!! Right ahead of The Battle of Evermore.
