...to propose a vote for Led Zeppelins’ Whole Lotta Love’. Used for many years as the intro music for BBCs Top Of The Pops this is one of the greatest songs of all time. After these the monopoly would still seem to be with Led Zep think Rock’n’Roll or Kashmir. It comes from the bands second album somewhat unoriginally titled Led Zeppelin 2. I was still at school when Led Zeppelin burst onto the scene and for years I was hooked ... Read review

...back to the Sixties, when Led Zeppelin - so named because an early critic predicted (wrongly) that they would "fall like a Lead Zeppelin" - were about to release their second album - the debatably correctly titled "Led Zeppelin 2". My friend Henry introduced me to this album about two months ago, and since then it has barely left my CD player. It starts brilliantly, with the majestic "Whole Lotta Love", which features such lyrical gems as "Swing ... Read review

Everybody knows Led Zeppelin as one of the best rock 'n roll bands ever. And, in my opinion, Led Zeppelin II is one of the best albums ever made. It has the popular rockers like "Heartbreaker" and "Whole Lotta Love," but probably my favorite song is "Bring it on Home" (last track of the album). This song is just amazing.

The album opens with the legendary Whole Lotta Love. More recently the riff has been butchered to make the disgrace that is the totp theme. It has also been covered by Goldbug but their version too failed to live up to the original. Anyway the song itself doesnt have ... Read review

Led Zeppelin II is the second album released by the English rock band Led Zeppelin in 1969. The album was recorded during a hectic and much-traveled period of the band's career from January through August 1969, when they completed four European and three American concert tours. Each song was separately recorded, mixed and produced at various studios in the UK and the U.S. Some of the recording studios utilised by the band were far from state-of-the-art. ... Read review

Advantages: Classic
Disadvantages:

The second album was recorded during the bands 1969 tour. The recording sessions were fragmented over a variety of locations. Page produced this album well and the end result sounds very coherent. "Whole Lotta Love" was based on a Willie Dixon song "You Need Love". Robert Plant emerged as the groups lyricist with the dreamy "What Is And What Should Never Be", and the love song "Thank You" and the Tolkien inspired "Ramble On". Moby Dick is one of the ...
