  • Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin I (Sounds On Vinyl S7 E37)
    Nov 23 2023

    In this episode of the "Sounds on Vinyl" podcast, hosts Phil Bowyer and Mike Svensson delve into the iconic debut album of Led Zeppelin, released in 1969. They begin by discussing the band's fearless approach to blending multiple genres, including rock, blues, and folk, highlighting the album's daring and innovative nature for its time. They examine each track in detail, praising the musicianship of each band member, especially John Bonham's exceptional drumming and Jimmy Page's guitar mastery.

    Songs like "Good Times Bad Times," "Dazed and Confused," and "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" are lauded for their groundbreaking elements, showcasing Led Zeppelin's unique ability to transform blues into something entirely new. However, they express mixed feelings about tracks like "Your Time is Gonna Come" and "Black Mountain Side," noting their experimental nature.

    The podcast also touches on the significance of the album's longer tracks, an uncommon feature in the late 60s, and how Led Zeppelin's boldness in song length and style paid off. They discuss the album's covers, particularly Willie Dixon's "I Can't Quit You Baby," as examples of Led Zeppelin's talent in reinterpreting and elevating blues music.

    Towards the end, Phil and Mike reveal that the next episode will be their final show, promising it to be an epic conclusion featuring one of the greatest heavy metal bands. They hint at a future project, indicating the end of "Sounds on Vinyl" in its current format but the beginning of something new and exciting in the world of music.
