Pros: Nine classic rock tunes...
Cons: Not everybody owns it yet...
Summary: Led Zeppelin is the quintessential band of their era. Their music is timeless and enduring and translates just as well today as it did twenty five years ago. Most bands can only hope to achieve such transcendent fame. They represent everything that is ... read more

Pros: Good music. Expect rock and roll.
Cons: not much, Just The Lemon Song.
Summary: Another classic example of Rock and Roll would come from this band. This album was released in 1969. After Led Zepplin I came out it was time more music. I found that Led Zepplin has more songs that are easier to listen too. The first song start ... read more

Pros: Macho belting, skull-cracking riffs, driving rhythms. And beautiful organ playing, courtesy of Mr. Jones.
Cons: Jimmy's sloppiest solo is on here (listen to Heartbreaker).
Summary: Hey, might as well get the Led out while Epinions is encouraging me to write a shi’iteload of reviews, right? Right. Besides, next to write-ups of rap releases, NIN albums, and Blue Oyster Cult’s self-titled debut, Zeppelin seems to enhance my income ... read more

Pros: Drums. Guitar. Vocals. Bass. Timing. Rocking.
Cons: Ramble On's chorus. The closer is slightly dull in comparison.
Summary: Let me explain to you how I review records. Each song's track length is rounded to the closest half minute and listed as a number. For example, in Led Zeppelin II, Ramble On is 4:24, so it is put down as 4.5. Ramble On is only a ... read more

Pros: "Thank You" is one of the best songs they ever made.
Cons: "Living Loving Maid" is one of the worst songs they ever made.
Summary: Led Zeppelin. For every person who thinks that they're some sort of assemblage of classic rock gods who inspire worship and "OMG STAIRWAY 2 HEAVEN IS TTLY THE BEST SONG EVAR D00D," there seems to be an equal number of people who think they're an ... read more

Pros: a second helping of Led Zeppelin's white boy blues-rock is tighter than on debut
Cons: taking credit for songs they did not compose; the beached-whale drum solo "Moby Dick"
Summary: One thing I admire about Led Zeppelin is that in the ten years they were together they constantly updated their sound. For example, they could have easily made a career out of playing sloppy electric blues like they did on their immensely popular first ... read more

Pros: Led Zep takes us down the Path that Rocks!
Cons: not a one
Summary: Led Zeppelin were fast on their way to becoming rock's newly crowned kings by the time they released their second album in 1969. They were and still are the crowning achievement of the British hard rock scene. If Cream and The Jimi Hendrix experience ... read more

Pros: An all around masterpiece to listen to.
Cons: May not be appealing for those who do not like heavy blues.
Summary: Let me preface this review by first saying I'm a huge Led Zeppelin fan. In fact I own all of their studio recordings. That said, Led Zeppelin II has to be one of their best albums for their or any other bands standards. In this album Led Zeppelin is able ... read more

Pros: Great musicianship. Solid, classic songs. The Bass, the Bass, the Bass!!
Cons: None.
Summary: Led Zeppelin. The name is a sentence unto itself. While many bands are loosely termed as “legendary”, this band personifies it. The music this band created during the time they were together has gone down in to the annals of rock history ... read more

Pros: Led Zeppelin's second masterpiece.
Cons: Not one!
Summary: With Led Zeppelin II, Led Zeppelin consolidated the success of their debut and established themselves as one of the greatest bands of all-time. A hard thing to do after only two albums. But rest assured, Zeppelin does it here. The first album was ... read more

Pros: Is louder, more accessible, has amazing guitar and drums, and strong song writing
Cons: "Moby Dick" can get boring, isn't as monumental as Zeppelin I, III, or IV
Summary: With Led Zeppelin's popularity blossoming in America in late 1969, there was a large demand for another album to help calm the hysterical masses. Zeppelin II was therefore made with relatively no recording or production time because they were on the road ... read more

Pros: Zep's most accessible disc, excellent musicianship and writing
Cons: Robert Plant's macho posturing can grow stale fairly quickly

Pros: Great guitar riffs, great drumming, great bass, great vocals, great songs...you get the point.
Cons: None at all unless you're not a fan of drum solos.
Summary: Of all the Led Zeppelin albums, this one is my favorite. It was the first one I heard and it's the one I go back to every time I wanna hear some hard-hitting rock and roll.
A few years back, I was parousing my dad's record collection and I ... read more

Pros: Led Zeppelin Thundering Into The Mainstream
Cons: That It Couldn't Be Longer
Summary: Led Zeppelin has probably produced finer albums than II (IV and Physical Graffiti immediately come to mind), but no other album solidified their reputation as the trailblazers for hard rock as much as it did. II arrived right on the heels of their ... read more
