Led ZeppelinHouses of the Holy 2014

Good Album

Do they even have a bad album ? NO ! Even the album that they put all their rejects on, Coda, kicks ass ! I only have one more record to buy to replace my entire Zep collection with new vinyl. Even though the old snap, crackle, pop vinyl still sounds great.

Vinyl plays perfect 0 skips, a break away from their typical hard rock style of their first 4 albums, the change first happened with Led Zeppelin lll shifting towards folk rock and continuing that for their fourth album, this record displays that more so and an art rock and softer scale on some songs like “the rain song” overall this is one of Led Zeppelin‘s Magnum opuses, if that’s even a word lol

I enjoyed the whole album. I am glad agave the album in my collection.

Received in good order appreciate - Thank You

Sounds very good, no complaints.

Brand new item

"Houses Of The Holy" was THE Zeppelin album of my last couple years of high school. I still remember the giddy feeling I got the very first time I heard "Dancing Days" pumping through the family radio on good old WRIF. I don't know how many times I listened to my vinyl copy, Koss Pro 4AA headphones clamped on my head, and my Mom constantly admonishing me that I'd ruin my hearing.It was the time when everyone I knew wanted to be in a rock band, and several of us acquired guitars. Led Zeppelin tunes were often frustratingly impossible to nail down, because none of us were sophisticated enough to know about alternate tunings, which Jimmy Page frequently employed.Likewise, and sadly, no one in my circle was aware of John Paul Jone's immense contribution to Zeppelin's sound. To us, it was all about Plant, Page and crazy Bonham. Jones was just 'the bassist'.As the years passed and CDs overtook my growing music collection, my tastes drifted away from Rock. And when I picked up a couple of the early CDs of Zeppelin's work for old times sake, I was very disappointed in the crappy quality of those transfers.Flash forward, and I finally got around to picking up this Deluxe remaster. Maybe Mom was right, because this still doesn't seem to have the warmth and vibrance I remember from the vinyl - maybe it's my hearing.However, this CD is heads and tails better than my old HOTH CD.Where's that confounded bridge? :)
