makes me feel young
Very refreshing and I knew most of the words!
This is what a classic sounds like. I'm 63 and hadn't heard some of these songs in years. . . . memorable!.

Led Zeppelin's Last Studio Record.
In any case, their final record, was pretty much an extension of where they were going with their music, no real surprises, just straight forward FM radio orientated, rock music, which still gets airplay today. Shortly after this record came out, John Bonham died, so the tour was cancelled, which I probably would have seen.

One good one
He gets your attention with the finely layered hi hat and ghost note snare pattern that features accents on the down beats on the hi hat. I bought this for bonzo`s masterpiece of drumming "Fool In The Rain"
His version of the halftime shuffle on that track is one for the ages.
Then, he lays into a quarter note triplet ride pattern for the chorus while keeping the bass drum pattern the same as the verse.
All the while his left foot is playing an eighth note hi hat time keeping rhythm.
Definitely His best work in my opinion, and i`m a bonzo type of drummer who knows his entire catalog. The rest of the CD is okay featuring tunes like "In The Evening", "Carouselambra" and "All Of My Love" but none of them compare to their earlier work or "Fool In The Rain". .

30 years later it still holds up
I was a year out of high school and working a graveyard shift at a gas station. I remember the first time I heard this album. I believe I heard it either on KLOS 101 or KILT in Houston, TX as a new release midnight album. This was a very popular radio feature on FM in those days. However I regress. At the time I thought it was not up to the usual Zep standards as their first seven albums. Thirty years later methinks I jumped to conclusions. If you listen to Zeps albums over their careers you'll hear that above all things they were innovators. At the time of this release; disco was waning, punk was "dying", and "new wave" was really creating a resurgence in innovation. My point here is that disco didn't survive, punk became today's alternative, and new wave became irrelevant because it hasn't stood the test of time. ITTOD however has stood the test of time quite well. Is it their best? IMHO no. That title will always go to Physical Graffiti. All that said, I love the diversity on this album as I loved the same quality of PG. Other reviewers will give you a track by track breakdown to sway you one way or another. I simply say, kick back and listen to this and then tell me. . . does it hold up? Is it still innovative in it's sound? And my favorite meter as to whether I or anyone should by an album, do you like it? If you like it then all negative reviews be damned! We all still have the right not to be sheep but to follow our own internal compass. Which way is your compass pointing?.

why bother!
it's possible gonzo drank himself to death after hearing the final results of this record?.
