Led Zeppelin IV专辑介绍
2014年10月27日发行豪华重灌版,包含当年录音室专辑中未收录的作品。

有至少三个相当充分的理由能使这张专辑成为一张永恒的作品,但是我们只需要一个,那就是《Stair Way To Heaven》。1971年《LED ZEPPELIN IV》专辑推出,其中一首《天堂的阶梯》倍受青睐。静溢清晰的民谣箱琴渐入主唱忧郁的倾诉,即而,在飞速宣泄的吉他Solo声中,爆裂的金属乐淹没了整个乐曲,使人们的听觉和感觉在短短的几分钟内有了一个极大的反差。这首重金属的传世之作,在此后的许多年中,一直被视为金属迷的钟爱。

这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第66位。

Encompassing heavy metal, folk, pure rock & roll, and blues, Led Zeppelin's untitled fourth album is a monolithic record, defining not only Led Zeppelin but the sound and style of '70s hard rock. Expanding on the breakthroughs of III, Zeppelin fuse their majestic hard rock with a mystical, rural English folk that gives the record an epic scope. Even at its most basic -- the muscular, traditionalist "Rock and Roll" -- the album has a grand sense of drama, which is only deepened by Robert Plant's burgeoning obsession with mythology, religion, and the occult. Plant's mysticism comes to a head on the eerie folk ballad "The Battle of Evermore," a mandolin-driven song with haunting vocals from Sandy Denny, and on the epic "Stairway to Heaven." Of all of Zeppelin's songs, "Stairway to Heaven" is the most famous, and not unjustly. Building from a simple fingerpicked acoustic guitar to a storming torrent of guitar riffs and solos, it encapsulates the entire album in one song. Which, of course, isn't discounting the rest of the album. "Going to California" is the group's best folk song, and the rockers are endlessly inventive, whether it's the complex, multi-layered "Black Dog," the pounding hippie satire "Misty Mountain Hop," or the funky riffs of "Four Sticks." But the closer, "When the Levee Breaks," is the one song truly equal to "Stairway," helping give IV the feeling of an epic. An apocalyptic slice of urban blues, "When the Levee Breaks" is as forceful and frightening as Zeppelin ever got, and its seismic rhythms and layered dynamics illustrate why none of their imitators could ever equal them.
