Presence Specifications


Presence is one of Led Zeppelin's more overlooked albums, languishing in the monstrous shadow of its predecessor, Physical Graffiti. It's more noted in Zeppelin mythology for the circumstances in which it was recorded, in double-quick time with vocalist Robert Plant's leg in plaster after a car accident. The lack of time does show--much of the album feels like generic heavy rock, bigger on volume than variety. It's worth the price of the album, however, for the 10-minute-plus "Achilles Last Stand" (a crashing, galloping epic with John Bonham sounding like he's replaced his drumsticks with tree trunks) and "Nobody's Fault but Mine," a Blind Willie Johnson blues regenerated with a 3,000-watt boost by Jimmy Page. --David Stubbs

Customer Reviews


PRESENCE 1976, Led Zeppelin was recorded directly after the great success of Physical Graffiti, and their sound is very opposed to this album. I think it's a good thing, though. What I like about this album is its simplicity. There is intense Jimmy's guitar, bass John Baldwin and John Bonham on drums. Bonham shines on this album, especially Achilles Last Stand I really like this song in his crowded, and the rest of the album, for that matter. This had the 'Incident in the same year as the song remains the same (live), released the sales involved. But here we are talking about Zeppelin, Led and everything he touched turned to gold, after all they have. It took many years for the critics and the public to board Zeppelin III, and this album is considered a good job, and a classic. Presence is blues-oriented, and has combined its roots to the 7 tracks. This was an important issue, because it is presumed that theAlbum, which held the band together after the accident at Plant in 1975 and, as it turns out, the last album, 1979 IN THROUGH THE OUT DOOR, the tragic events in the life of the plant follows and the time is off. I like the whole album, especially for a tea, Achille's Last Stand, for your life and the Royal Orleans. Overall, the presence of a good album. Sometimes something that can be thrown together is better than something that is carefully planned. This was a great effort to mitigateCircumstances. 9.5/10
