Led Zeppelin. A name that’s probably been scrawled onto notebooks, carved into park benches, and spray-painted on walls more than any other. The name came from Who drummer Keith Moon’s idea that the group would sink like a lead balloon. Indeed they would create something heavy, but it wouldn’t sink – it would set the model for the ultimate rock band in the years to follow.
Guitarist Jimmy Page, bassist John Paul Jones, and singer Robert Plant, and drummer John Bonham united to become the most deified rock band of the ’70s, embodying excess, reinventing FM radio, and writing music that made you want to move your feet, shake your fists, bang your head, and basically act like a rock ‘n’ roll lunatic.
For the first time, Led Zeppelin is now available for download on iTunes. “The Complete Led Zeppelin,” the ultimate digital box set of 165 remastered tracks from the group’s 13 legendary albums, is now available for download for US$99.99. Other individual Led Zeppelin albums are available at prices starting at $7.92.

Grant knew the market he was going for.
I already have the complete LZ. I got it from the Limewire Music Store years ago.
@ R2,
YOU are the pathetic, irrelevant one.
If the future of the USA is in the hands of cowards and lazy-asses like you and your generation, we’re doomed.
Jay-Z? Yeah, there’s some talent.
Hopefully, the shallow nature of you punks will become increasingly apparent and the country can turn direction before it’s too late.
As for affording the LZ set, I’m sure someone like you can’t – unless mommy and daddy buy it for you.

I received a message from my brother across the water
He sat laughin’ as he wrote the end’s in sight
So I said goodbye to all my friends
And packed my hopes inside a matchbox
‘Cause I know it’s time to fly
Come on, meet me in the morning, Meet me in the middle of the night
The morning light is comin’, don’t it make you wanna go and feel alright
I just jumped a train that never stops,
So now somehow I’ll know I never finished payin’ for my ride
Just n’ someone pushed a gun into my hand
Tell me I’m the type of man to fight the fight that I’ll require
Come on, meet me in the morning, Meet me in the middle of the night
The morning light is comin’, don’t it make you wanna go and feel alright
Oh, mama, well I think it’s time I’m leavin’
Nothin’ here to make me stay
Whoa, mama, well it must be time I’m goin’
They’re knockin’ down them doors
They’re tryin’ to take me away
Please Mr. Brakeman, won’t you ring your bell. And ring loud and clear
Please Mr. Fireman, won’t you ring your bell
Tell the people they got to fly away from here
I once saw a picture of a lady with a baby
Southern lady, had a very, very special smile
We are in the middle of a change in destination
When the train stops, all together we will smile
Oh, meet me in the morning. Won’t you meet me in the middle of the night, night, night
Everybody know the mornin’ time is comin’
Don’t it make you wanna feel alright. Ah, ah, yeah
Make me feel alright. Fly now, baby
Get to fly, yeah. Fly now, baby
MDN MW: usually ; Lately, I usually find the majority of comments on this site to be shallow and idiotic.
“How do you keep the neighbors kids of your lawn?”
You do mean, “off”, your lawn, don’t you?
Yeah, can’t believe I missed that.
it’s spelled ‘Rutles’, as in ‘rut’. And I completely agree. They rule. And groups like The Stooges and the MC5 were redefining rock ‘n roll for real when Zeppelin was still learning to play.

Their prices are pretty competitive. Or so i heard.

@sosumi,
They spelled it led so no one would pronounce it like the “lead” singer in a band.
@ron,
Does that Bing Crosby iPod in baby blue also have bruise marks on it?

Jimmy Page
Some said Clapton is god and sitting on a throne on high… I believe Clapton is sitting in Jimmy’s seat.
Nuff said.
