Led Zeppelin III

Альбом «Led Zeppelin III», спродюсированный, как и ранние работы, Джимми Пейджем, вполне можно назвать самым недооцененным в истории группы. Он вышел 5 октября 1970 года в конверте, который сам по себе являлся произведением искусства. Пластинка записывалась среди сельских пейзажей Уэльса в коттедже «Bron-Y-Aur» (название, о многом говорящее фанатам Led Zeppelin, в переводе с валлийского означает «золотая грудь»), и, наверное, поэтому получилась некоторым образом фольклорной и более акустической по сравнению с предыдущими творениями. Тем не менее, альбом достиг 1-го места в чартах и в США, и в Британии. Среди песен особенно хороши и любимы «Since I’ve Been Loving You«, «Immigrant Song» и «Tangerine«.
