Recording sessions for the album took place at several locations in both the United Kingdom and North America from January to August 1969. The album's production was credited to the band's lead guitarist and songwriter Jimmy Page,and it was also Led Zeppelin's first album on which Eddie Kramer served as engineer.
Led Zeppelin III is the third studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin,released on 5 October 1970. It was recorded in three locations. Much of the work was done at Headley Grange,a country house,using the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio. Additional sessions were held at Island Studios and Olympic Studios in London. As with the prior album,the band eschewed the use of guest musicians,with all music performed by band members Robert Plant (vocals),Jimmy Page (guitars),John Paul Jones,and John Bonham (drums). The range of instruments played by the band was greatly enhanced on this album,with Jones especially emerging as a talented multi-instrumentalist,playing a wide range of keyboard and stringed instruments,including various synthesizers,mandolin and double bass,in addition to his usual bass guitar. As with prior albums,Page served as producer on the album,with mixing done by Andy Johns and Terry Manning.
The untitled fourth studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin,commonly known as Led Zeppelin IV,was released on 8 November 1971 by Atlantic Records. It was produced by guitarist Jimmy Page and recorded between December 1970 and February 1971,mostly in the country house Headley Grange. The album contains the band's most well-known recording,the eight-minute-long "Stairway to Heaven".
Houses of the Holy is the fifth studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin,released on 28 March 1973 by Atlantic Records. The album benefited from two band members installing studios at home,which allowed them to develop more sophisticated songs and arrangements and expand their musical style. Several songs subsequently became fixtures in the group's live set,including "The Song Remains the Same","The Rain Song" and "No Quarter". Other material recorded at the sessions,including the title track,was shelved and released on the later albums Physical Graffiti and Coda. All instruments and vocals were provided by the band members Robert Plant (vocals),Jimmy Page (guitar),John Paul Jones,and John Bonham (drums). The album was produced by Page and mixed by Eddie Kramer. The cover was the first for the band to be designed by Hipgnosis and was based on a photograph taken at Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland.
Physical Graffiti is the sixth studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin. Released as a double album on 24 February 1975,it was the group's first album to be released under their new label,Swan Song Records. The band wrote and recorded eight new songs for the album in early 1974 at Headley Grange,a country house in Hampshire,which gave them ample time to improvise arrangements and experiment with recording. The total playing time covered just under three sides of an LP,so they decided to expand it into a double by including previously unreleased tracks from the sessions for the earlier albums Led Zeppelin III,Led Zeppelin IV and Houses of the Holy. The album covered a range of styles including hard rock,progressive rock,rock 'n' roll and folk. The album was then mixed over summer 1974 and planned for an end-of-year release;however,its release was delayed because the Peter Corriston-designed die-cut album cover proved difficult to manufacture.
Presence is the seventh studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin,released by their own label Swan Song Records on 31 March 1976. While the record was commercially successful,reaching the top of both the British and American album charts,and achieving a triple-platinum certification in the United States by the RIAA,it received mixed reviews from critics and is the lowest-selling album by the band.
Coda is the first compilation album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin. The album is a collection of rejected tracks from various sessions during Led Zeppelin's twelve-year career. It was released on 19 November 1982,almost two years after the group had officially disbanded following the death of drummer John Bonham. The word coda,meaning a passage that ends a musical piece following the main body,was therefore chosen as the title.
