Led Zeppelin - IV .jpg) .gif) By Billy Altman
Also known as the "rune" album or Zoso because of the
medieval symbols adorning the inner sleeve, Led Zeppelin's fourth album,
released in 1971, turned them from mere superstars into giant behemoths of
the rock world. On tracks like "Black Dog," "Misty Mountain
Hop," and "Rock and Roll," the combination of Robert
Plant's banshee wails and Jimmy Page's frenetic guitar playing forever
altered the stylistic bent of hard rock music. And the foreboding
"When the Levee Breaks" demonstrated that Zeppelin could indeed
play the blues fairly straight if they so desired. Still, everything here
ultimately took a back seat to the album's (and, ultimately, the band's)
magnum opus--the expertly constructed and deftly executed classic,
"Stairway to Heaven."
