Led Zeppelin III @50- Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, Terry Manning

Led Zeppelin III  appeared October 5, 1970 with surprisingly little notice. Containing "The Immigrant Song","Gallows Pole", and "Since I've Been Loving You", Led Zeppelin III  also planted exotic seeds of sounds in "Friends" with its Middle Eastern orchestration, which would skip several subsequent albums only to germinate with legendary impact on Physical Grafitti . My guests Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and Led Zeppelin "III"  recording engineer at Ardent Studio in Memphis, Terry Manning, tell the story In the Studio.

Led Zeppelin III @55- Jimmy Page, Robert Plant 10-6

Led Zeppelin's third album did not have the first blush of discovery like the debut, nor a bona fide hit like "Whole Lotta Love" on Led Zeppelin II, but now in hindsight "Led Zeppelin III" is revered for being the musical bridge to even greater successes soon to come. Robert Plant and Jimmy Page are my guests bearing "Immigrant Song","Out on the Tiles","Since I've Been Loving You", "Gallows Pole", and "Friends" In the Studio beginning the week of October 6.
