mikelevigne -- you made me break out my First Week It Came Out LP copy of "Led Zeppelin." I first heard the record on a buddy’s parent’s JBL/Fisher stereo custom console. Another friend had brought it over. I was so blown away by the sheer intensity of the band, when Side One ended I immediately headed to the nearest record store and bought the thing. I listened to the record for years. I saw the band when they came to town. Festival seating. Me and my girlfriend ooched our way to the front of the stage.
Anyway, cut to the present. I’m currently listening to side one. Pretty good clarity & imaging but absolutely no lows or highs. Not as compressed as some rock records of the era but certainly no dynamo. The music? As powerful as ever.
