Led Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy Review by Gary Hill For those who think Zeppelin was always nothing but bluesy hard rock, this flies in the fact of that. Much of this disc really fits into a progressive rock category. More...
Led Zeppelin - In Through the Out Door Review by Gary Hill This was the final studio album produced by Led Zeppelin before John Bonham’s death. As such it is truly their swan song. More...

Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin Review by Gary Hill It’s hard to believe that it’s been forty years since this album was released. It’s still a classic and probably always will be. More...
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin III Review by Gary Hill This album was certainly a shock to Zeppelin fans when it came out. Accustomed to the bluesy hard rock of the first couple albums, much of this had to have seemed like a different band. More...
