I miss the art of the vinyl record cover art.

This one was released in a plain brown wrapper. It was also released with 4 different scenes on the front cover inside, hence the brown wrapper concealing which scene you were buying. The cover was dark and almost monotone but had a lighter "brushstroke" across it. The inner sleeve was white and almost like a blank page from a childs coloring book. Painting this inner sleeve with a wet brush made colors come to life.
Quite creative I thought. I applaud! Miss this artistic packaging.

Zeppelin's last studio album; don't think I've ever heard a Zep fan include it as one of their favorites. But can we get a round of applause for that snazzy album cover? Wasn't long after this record was cut that Bonham managed to drink himself to death in a single evening. Yeesh.

I still have the album and the brown paper wrapper. I keep all my old albums in plastic sleeves and enjoy playing and hearing them now and then.

Well, except for this album. LZ kind of 'mailed it in' on this one. I did have the great pleasure of seeing LZ twice during my college age days. Quite the experience. But this album? Naaaw - kind of an embarrassment for LZ actually IMHO.

You sound old. And you don't trust your kid.

This Band Sux - let us never speak of them again - ;o) That's sarcasm folks!
P.S. It's wonderful that I've heard "S2H" 1 billion times and RP plays this one which I've NEVER heard! Woohoo!

Love this album. Zeppelin had pretty much run the course of their rock style by the late 70s (Presence was a bit dry and not very colorful), and this was a great indication of a new direction that had stellar songwriting, production, and style. Those Zep fans who dismiss this album probably think Stairway was their best song.

Isn't It "sweet sweet Connie"? Referring to a noted groupie?

A lot of Zep purists hate this album. I am not a purist—yet I owned this record and thoroughly enjoyed all of it. Mostly because it contained none of the mystical, dungeons and dragons claptrap that marred some of their earlier efforts for me. Groovy, funky, and unpretentious—how are these bad things?

Screen it for what? {#Think}
