Description

Led Zeppelin is the debut studio album by the British rock band Led Zeppelin, released 12 January 1969, on Atlantic Records. In July of 1968 the Yardbirds band broke-up leaving only Jimmy Page with all rights to the name and concert obligations. He pulled together John Paul Jones as bassist, Robert Plant as lead singer, and John Bonham as drummer. Their first rehearsal was 19 August 1968 and they toured Scandinavia as “the New Yardbirds”. Not having yet secured a record contract they started recording this debut album on 25 September 1998. The 36 hours of recording time at Olympic Studios in London was paid for by Page and manager Peter Grant. Page was also the albums producer. The groups fusion of blues and rock along with their emerging style of hard rock proved to be an immediate commercial success in both the UK and US. The album reached the top 10 in six countries and multi-Platinum Certification in the US, UK and Australia. Only two singles were released form the album, “Good Times Bad Times” and “Communications Breakdown”.

Led Zeppelin was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame in 1995. They received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2005 and the list of accolades goes on and on and on.
