3 stars LED ZEPPELIN III , in a overall evaluation, this album is an anachronism in Led Zepp's first half "flight". That is characterized by the almost complete absence of Page's guitar solos ( with a brilliant exception in track 3 "Celebration Day" and track 4 " Since I've been Loving You"). Even so there are other high points, like the riff and arrangement of track 5 "Out On The Tiles" ( a melody and rhythm very complex). Beside the Side 2 ( in vinyl) is very beautiful and unveil (definitively) the Zeppelin's acoustic vein. How somebody can contest the great arrangements of tracks, like "Gallows Pole" (with the banjo accompaniment), "That's The Way" ( with 12 string-guitar ) and " Bron-Y-Aur Stomp" ? Another great moment be in track 2 "Tangerine" with a lap-steel or bottleneck guitar intervention. In resume... if you are an admirer (like me) of country music ( with a progressive "brushstroke") as for instance Crosby,Stills, Nash & Young certainly you appreciates this album . My rate is 3,5 stars !!!
