Product Details

The Epics: Features "Kashmir", a towering, majestic song driven by an iconic middle-eastern orchestral-guitar riff and massive drum sound. Hard Rock and Blues: Includes heavy workouts like "Custard Pie", "The Rover", and the 11-minute blues exploration "In My Time of Dying". Funk and Groove: Showcases rhythmic experimentation such as the clavinet-heavy funk-rocker "Trampled Under Foot".Acoustic and Atmospheric: Balances the loud numbers with intricate acoustic interludes like "Bron-Yr-Aur" and the nostalgic, reflective "Ten Years Gone". Background and Artwork Recording: Much of the new material was captured at the historic country house Headley Grange. The Double-LP Expansion: The band had written enough new long-form material to push past a single LP, filling out the double album with stellar outtakes dating back to Led Zeppelin III and Houses of the Holy. Cover Art: Designed by Peter Corriston, the famous package featured a die-cut photograph of a New York City brownstone tenement building where interchangeable inner sleeves allowed different faces and objects to appear in the windows.
