Led Zeppelin....The Legacy of All Legacies

In which The Curmudgeons worship at the altar of the mighty, mighty Led Zeppelin. With scorching guitar licks, torpedo-heavy drumming and sex-god screamer vocals, this band epitomized the sensuality and the swagger of rock 'n' roll, and in presenting their take on the genre, they helped create what we now call heavy metal. During this episode, we counter some unfair myths this band has saddled with over the years and pour over its incredibly rich catalog of music with love and respect.    Enjoy our special Spotify playlist featuring the stylings of Led Zeppelin: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7ldFOLlEcY7HL4zueF7JJ3?si=990fa39641cc40d7   Here's a handy navigation companion to this episode.    (00:52 - 05:02) - Arturo Andrade sets the parameters for our discussion of Led Zeppelin   (08:30 - 22:29) - The Parallel Universe, featuring reviews of new albums from Arooj Aftab and Goat   (23:14 - 01:00:24) - We debunk five myths about Led Zeppelin and tell the remarkable story of the band's formation and ascension   (01:02:03 - 01:50:01) - We analyze the band's catalog of eight studio albums in detail--six classics and two decent affairs   01:51:00 - 02:12:55) - We tell the rest of the story that followed Led Zeppelin's break up, plus Chris O'Connor offers his list of the five best "phony" Zeppelin acts   Join our Curmudgeonly Community today! facebook.com/groups/curmudgeonrock   Hosted on Podbean! curmudgeonrock.podbean.com   Subscribe to our show on these platforms: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-curmudgeon-rock-report/id1551808911   https://open.spotify.com/show/4q7bHKIROH98o0vJbXLamB?si=5ffbdc04d6d44ecb   https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/5fea16f1-664e-40b7-932e-5fb748cffb1d/the-curmudgeon-rock-report?refMarker=null    Co-written and co-produced by Arturo Andrade and Christopher O'Connor - The Curmudgeons
