 Led Zeppelin III (Music)
comment
Led Zeppelin III is the third studio album by Led Zeppelin, released in 1970 through Atlantic Records. The record is best known for the songs "Immigrant Song" and "Since I've Been Loving You".At the time it got such bad reviews that the band members decided to give their next album from the following year, Led Zeppelin IV no indication of what their band name, album title or serial number were on the cover. That way critics and fans could judge the record on their own merits, without automatically being prejudiced in disliking it because it was made by them.

Face on the Cover: Small pictures of the band members are shown on the album cover, which on the vinyl version had a wheel with different pictures showing through holes in the cover to change the look.

comment
New Sound Album: Despite still being heavy rock "Led Zeppelin III" was notable because for having a different, slower musical approach than their previous albums. "That's The Way", for instance, is an acoustic song. "Bron Y-Aur Stomp" features the use of castagnets and "Hats Off To Roy Harper" has a weird effect on Plant's voice.

comment
Horny Vikings: "Immigrant Song" and "Since I've Been Loving You" have lyrical references to the Viking invasions of England and Norse Mythology and were inspired by their performance in Iceland at the time.

Downer Ending: The singer in "Gallows Pole" is on the scaffold, hoping to be rescued and/or bribe his way out of hanging. He's not able to do so.

Shout-Out: First pressings of "Immigrant Song" in the USA as a single had a quote from Aleister Crowley. "Hats Off to (Roy) Harper" is a tribute to folk singer Roy Harper and also has some lyrics lifted from blues singer Bukka White.

Cover Version
 Led Zeppelin III (Music) / int_cff53786
comment
Cover Version: "Gallows Pole" and "Hats Off To (Roy) Harper" are both traditional songs. "Tangerine" also dates back to Page's days with The Yardbirds, and an early version of the song under the name "Knowing That I'm Losing You" was recorded during the band's final recording sessions. However, it has never been officially released.

Public Execution: "Gallows Pole" is based on the traditional "The Maid Freed From The Gallows", where a public executioner is bribed into not hanging certain victims. In Led Zeppelin's version, however, he still goes ahead with the execution.

The Show Must Go Wrong: "Celebration Day" originally used one of John Bonham's drum tracks in the intro, but an engineer accidentally erased the recording. To compensate the synthesizer drone from the end of "Friends" was used to fill up the gap.

comment
Jerkass: The executioner in "Gallows Pole" accepts monetary and sexual bribes from a condemned prisoner's family and then goes on to execute him anyway. Notably, this is a change from the traditional ending of the song, in which the prisoner was released at the end. Could be considered An Aesop against capital punishment, although it's not clear if the band intended it this way.
