Led Zeppelin

Physical Graffiti does stand as my favourite album by anyone, ever.

One of my five double albums for a desert island. The others are The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, English Settlement, Colosseum Live and Exile on Main Street. They are double albums that once I listen to the first track, well, I just have no choice, I have to listen to them right through. I have to set aside an evening and clear the decks in fact.
Nope: the White Album doesn't make my cut, neither does Blonde on Blonde.

Thinks… London Calling is a double album, isn't it? Hmmm…

Second half of PG is too uneven for me to think that, but doubles where it is all or nothing for me would, off the top of my head, include The Wall, The Lamb, and then of course the live doubles: Paris, Alchemy, Live After Death, Live Rust, Double Trouble, World Wide Live, Seconds Out.
 
I may have posted on this thread before but went to the second Knebworth on a coach from Piccadilly Records. Knackered all the time. Bogs beyond appalling and enjoyed the New Barbarians more. Fucking Chas and Dave were on and little did I realise how they would haunt me in 1981.
 
Not in the same league, or even the same conference. Poles apart as bands
For sure....but the Oasis gig was the night Definitely Maybe went to number one....and the venue of a few hundred seemingly had thousands at it.....similarly, mention Stairway to Heaven and everyone's Dad/uncle/grandad was there
 
Anyone else on here seen them live, and what are your memories?

(I'm talking about the original foursome with Bonzo, not Page/Plant etc)

I went to the last nights gig at Earls Court in May '75 and both Knebworths in August 1979.
Saw them at the Free Trade Hall about 1969/ 1970
Can't remember much about it

Second half of PG is more varied but still packed with brilliance.
 
I’m 44 so never seen them live...jealous and pleased at the same time for all of you that did
 
The Jimmy Page & Black Crowes - Live at the Greek album is an absolute classic! Jimmy was playing the best he had in many years and with 2 other guitarist behind him the classic Zep songs sounded great. Definitely worth a spin for those who haven’t listened to it.

 
I think i posted in this thread a while back. I’m into Led Zeppelin, as I drum Bonzo is a big influence.

I collect Led Zep albums and buy doubles and international release. My recent buy, around early last year, were these.

I’ve got these 4 myself and ripped high quality audio files from them, class.
