  1. Capture[s] a mighty band at the height of its gargantuan power.
  2. Presents Led Zeppelin in all their ragged glory and heavy splendour. [Jul 2003, p.119]

    It's a masterclass in why they were, and still are, the greatest rock band to grace the Earth.

    It's one of the greatest live albumsin history. Every member of the band is inspired. The long guitar and drum solos are amazing. The only thing I can complain about is Robert Plant. He was great, but not perfect. Listen to BBC Sessions to understand what I'm talking about. Expand

  2. A hark back to when bands could sing instead of auto-tune. A fabulous collection of great hits and amazing guitar playing, with amazing lyrics and singing to boot. What more do you need? Expand
