THE BEGINNING OF IT ALL, no other words are needed!
Led Zeppelin: Led Zeppelin IV
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
The MASTERPIECE par excellence!! Black Dog, Rock n Roll (my absolute favorite) and that song that even the stones know by heart, perhaps the most beautiful song ever, with the most beautiful solo of all time, the immense Stairway To Heaven.... I'll stop here, and I might just go listen to it again for the umpteenth time!!!

    I love "When The Levee Breaks"... that's the shining gem of the album.
Led Zeppelin: III

Inferior to the first two masterpieces of the band, but it remains an absolutely fantastic album!!

    Well, I like this one more than the first two.

    For me, the first four are essential and of equal importance, which surprised everyone back then given the prevalence of acoustic tracks. It may sound less hard, but just Immigrant alone is worth the entire album...

    Gallows Pole and Since I've Been Loving You, two timeless masterpieces.

    As The JargonKing...by far the one I have always preferred about the airship.

    I haven't commented on anything for years, but I care about "Musical Justice."
    Do you realize that "Since I've been Loving You" is worth half of the world's discography? It's among the five most beautiful Blues pieces in the world.
    Forgive me for the abrupt intervention, but I hope it is Effective.

    @Kurtd I don't think I wrote that the album is bad; on the contrary, I emphasized that it is a great album, but for me, it is inferior to the first two...

    To date, although all of the first 4 are exceptional albums to me, the first is the only one I prefer over this one. It's a matter of nuances in any case.
Led Zeppelin: II
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
"Whole Lotta Love," "What Is And What Should Never Be," "The Lemon Song," "Thank You," "Heartbreaker," "Living Loving Maid," "Ramble On," "Moby Dick," and "Bring It On Home".... Is there anything else to add??
Led Zeppelin: Presence
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
It was 1976, and before the release of the album, John Bonham took the stage (drunk) at a Deep Purple concert, grabbed the microphone, and said: "I’m John Bonham from Led Zeppelin, and I just want to announce that we have a new album coming out: it’s called Presence, and, damn, it’s fantastic!" Boy, was the good old Bonzo right!! "Achilles Last Stand" and "Nobody's Fault but Mine," two incredible gems!!

    I've never liked Led Zeppelin or Deep Purple (I prefer Black Sabbath), but from how you've constructed this definition, I think I should listen to this album (which I don't know).

    I didn't know about this, is there any video? Anyway, the album has been seriously underrated by everyone, and "For Your Life" is a must-listen, almost a fundamental pillar of hard rock.

    No Ale, unfortunately videos can't be found, but it's all true, it's been confirmed in various interviews, etc... This story can be found everywhere online anyway... Actually, the sentence isn't even complete, since he also added: "And as for Tommy Bolin: he can't play for shit!".... At that time, Bolin was on guitar and not Blackmore!!

    "1976: One evening, John Bonham showed up backstage at a Deep Purple concert at the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island. Drunk and quite excited, he struggled to stand behind the stage; he noticed a free microphone and jumped on stage before the Deep Purple roadies could grab him. The band stopped playing, stunned, while Bonzo shouted into the microphone: 'I'm John Bonham from Led Zeppelin and I just want to announce that we have a new album coming out: it's called Presence and, fucking hell, it's fantastic!' He then tried to leave but turned back towards the Deep Purple guitarist and insulted him gratuitously: 'And as for Tommy Bolin, he can't play for shit!' This incident (one of the funniest in rock history) appeared in music magazines all over the world (it’s also mentioned in the book Led Zeppelin: Hammer of the Gods) and later the Deep Purple themselves confirmed it numerous times."

    Seen :D :D
Even the greatest miss the mark! If such an album had been produced at the time by an emerging band, it would have definitely received a different judgment! Unfortunately, they were not emerging; they were the biggest... (2.5)

    I don’t know why, but I consider it a masterpiece. It is certainly a more worthy conclusion than Coda.
Led Zeppelin: Houses of The Holy
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
The latest masterpiece from the greatest band in history... Extraordinary tracks and a beautiful cover... "Over The Hills And Far Away" and "No Quarter" are timeless pieces...

    You forgot "Physical Graffiti"
  • Aquarius27
    5 may 15
    "Physical Graffiti" is a beautiful, mind-blowing album for me, etc... But not a masterpiece for one reason, which is too many songs... The first six tracks are immense, and there's no need to mention the names of the songs... The second disc does not maintain the levels of the first one... If, at the time, it had been released with the first 6 plus "In The Light," "Wanton Song," "Ten Years Gone," and "Sick Again" (the best for me from the second disc)... Well, in that case, we would be talking about a masterpiece!!
  • east of eden80

    Perhaps the weakest is Presence.
  • ZannaB
    5 may 15
    In my opinion, this isn't a masterpiece either. And now I’m starting the festival of clichés: after the first four, there’s a qualitative decline! Jimmy Page copied from the great bluesmen of the past. Plant was off-key live. Bonzo drank so much that he passed out on the drums. Am I forgetting something???
  • east of eden80
    5 may 15
    And what was John Paul Jones doing?
  • hjhhjij
    5 may 15
    Jimmy Page was a Satanist, how could you forget that? P.S.: the album isn't a masterpiece for me either, but it's still a great album.

    Speaking of Led Zeppelin, I don't know how much this version might please Acquario ventisette, but this stuff drives me crazy.
  • Aquarius27
    5 may 15
    The weakest for me is In Through The Out Door... On Presence, those two outstanding tracks, Achille and Nobody's, really stand out and for me, it's a fantastic album... Hj, this is a beautiful version that I wasn't aware of... But the 11 minutes of Led will blow your mind (at least for me :) )
  • hjhhjij

    I also really like the original. However, I feel that Rowland S. Howard's vision of the Blues is more "mine." Of course, this comes down to tastes.
  • Aquarius27
    5 may 15
    I really liked this version because it differs from the one by Led... In fact, I believe that a cover shouldn't be remade exactly the same in every way... Every band should put something of their own into the piece...
  • hjhhjij
    5 may 15
    Well, trust someone who knows Lydia Lunch and Rowland S. Howard's music well, it's unlikely they'll end up playing a carbon copy. Howard has done various covers (Stooges, Chilton...) and they are all wonderfully "his." On this album made in collaboration, there's also a cover of "Black Juju" by Alice Cooper, I can't tell you what a thing that is... I'm glad you liked it anyway, and I agree with you by the way.
  • Aquarius27
    5 may 15
    You got me curious... When I have some time, I'll look for something on YouTube... Maybe the spark will fly with them too :)
  • hjhhjij
    5 may 15
    With Howard maybe yes, with Lydia I wouldn't know how much she can cater to your tastes, but you never know :) Anyway, as a duo they actually made two albums. One in 1982 when Howard was still with the Birthday Party, called "Honeymoon in Red" (released only in the remastered version by Thirewell in 1987, with the addition of Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth on guitar) and indeed the other members of the Birthday Party participated, including Nick Cave on two terrifying duets (literally) with Lunch. And then there’s "Shotgun Wedding" from 1991 under the name "Lydia Lunch & Rowland S. Howard," from which I took the Zeppelin cover. If you like Howard, definitely try to listen to this last one; you might as well explore everything he has done, the coordinates are pretty much the same. With Lydia Lunch, the discussion is more complex. Anyway, give this album a try and let me know:

    I bet this is the part of the album you appreciate the most!! She does have a beautiful voice, though...
  • hjhhjij

    No, the album is incredibly homogeneous; there isn't a track that stands out above the others. In fact, for me, it is a true masterpiece.
  • Aquarius27

    I will try to listen to something in a not-too-distant future...

    There is a pulsation, a common thread that runs along the entire spine of this work; it periodically returns to throb so that one can always feel the vibration, the vitality, its exuberance.

    The last masterpiece by Led Zeppelin remains, for me, "In Through The Out Door."
Led Zeppelin: Coda
CD Audio I have it ★★★
"There will be Led Zeppelin as long as there are Jimmy Page, John Bonham, John Paul Jones, and Robert Plant."
Led Zeppelin: Physical Graffiti
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
Not a top score for a reason, too many songs... The first part is stunning with 6, I say 6 masterpieces... The second part unfortunately doesn't maintain the levels of the first album, with some truly unnecessary songs... What a shame... One single album with the first 6 plus "In The Light," "Ten Years Gone," "The Wanton Song," and "Sick Again" (the best ones for me from the second part) would have been the best choice... Regardless, it remains a masterpiece with a small minus next to it...
  • east of eden80

    Anyway, this has become a classic too...

    It could have been a great album, it's a shame about Plant's vocal conditions.
  • che!?
    28 may 15
    But the Plant incident happened the following year, didn't it?
  • Nameless
    28 may 15
    yes in '76
  • Nameless
    28 may 15
    Even if to be honest it stopped singing decently from '73 onwards.

    I would also add Down By The Seaside.
Linkin Park: Hybrid Theory
CD Audio I have it ★★★
As a kid, I loved "Linkin Park"... Whole afternoons spent listening to their "music"... Growing up, I broadened my musical tastes, and as a result, I stopped paying attention to the Linkin much at all... Their debut album (which maybe 7/8 years ago I considered a masterpiece) is a decent record. Not denying my past, I give the album three stars... I haven't listened to this record in at least 5 years, and I probably won't ever listen to it again, but it’s definitely a part of my life.
Lynyrd Skynyrd: Second Helping
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
One, Two Three...! This is how one of the fundamental albums in the history of Rock begins... An album I have always loved and appreciated to madness, more than "Pronounced," which was and still is superior, but this has nothing to envy to it!!
Lynyrd Skynyrd: Street Survivors
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
After two good albums that did not live up to the two previous masterpieces, the Skynyrd rediscovered their creative spark from the early days, giving birth to "Street Survivors," an album of excellent quality. Unfortunately, fate decided that this was to be the last album of the band with the original members.
I can't find the right words to fully describe this album... 6 spectacular tracks and two masterpieces... "Simple Man" and "Free Bird"... the first one with those immense lyrics, and the second, well, the second has to be experienced... words are not enough!!!!
