Advantages: Mystical rock ballads from the perilous realm,crashing drums throwing the songs in every direction,the birth of rock and roll !! Disadvantages: NONE
Led zeppelin sky rocketed into space after the enormous success of their mystical debut album,while led zeppelin 1 was a crazy mix of high fidelity and folk magic,the album was very divided in style. There were heavy rock ballads as a backdraw to hold the album up and to emphasise it's music genre,but in between these ballads was pure dazzling magic,laid back,soothing and peculiar tunes and melodies.The magic of Zeppelin has always been lingering ... ...Many people fit Led Zeppelin into 2 genres,in the early 70's their heavy rock balads and crashing drums,and the other as the folk,beuticians which mysterious acoustic scores and relaxed vocals made up their mist famous album Led Zeppelin IV.Led Zeppelin are so mysteriously inconsistent it's impossible to fit their music into any genre,the genre is Led Zeppelin!!!

Advantages: Heavy Rock overtones with strong blues and folk influence Disadvantages: Not long enough
...gentle folk tied in with Led Zep's typical transferance to the opposite extreme. A good chorus, but not too overstated.

This is immediately followed by "Livin Lovin Maid" a little known Led Zep song, ... ...as they never played it live, which is a shame.
"Ramble On" comes next, which is a very folky song, but with a heavy chorus and build up. This song has strong lyrical references to the Lord Of The Rings trilogy. The John Bonham masterpeice comes next in "Moby Dick" An excellent riff, with an amazing drum solo.
The last song "Bring It On Home," does exactly what it says on the tin. A stomping blues song, that draws the album to a scorching climax ...
