Led Zeppelin
Fifty years ago today, Led Zeppelin released their seventh studio album, PRESENCE. Without the keyboard and acoustic textures of the previous few albums, it was a return to the elemental blues-based rock of their debut – less by design than necessity. When the quartet went to Munich, Germany, to record the album, Robert Plant was recovering from a car accident (he was in a wheelchair for the sessions), and like the band's first album, it was cut quickly. Even under duress, Led Zeppelin could deliver great songs like “Nobody's Fault But Mine” and the epic “Achilles Last Stand,” and Jimmy Page's solos here rank among his very best. Thanks to this resilience, PRESENCE soared to the top of the Billboard chart, eventually going triple-Platinum in the U.S.
