Led Zeppelin III

Reseña
Con su tercer álbum, Led Zeppelin III, de 1970, la banda británica sorprendió al mundo con un cambio de dirección radical. Tras la contundencia eléctrica de sus dos primeros trabajos, en este disco Led Zeppelin se sumerge de lleno en el folk, la música acústica y la psicodelia pastoral, demostrando una versatilidad y una profundidad que pocos esperaban.
Por esta razón, el álbum fue recibido con cierta perplejidad en su momento. La cara A del disco todavía contiene potentes temas de hard rock como la increíble "Immigrant Song", con su grito de guerra vikingo. Sin embargo, la cara B es casi enteramente acústica, grabada en una cabaña de Gales sin electricidad llamada Bron-Y-Aur.
De esta manera, la banda crea una obra de contrastes. Canciones como "Gallows Pole", una adaptación de un tema folk tradicional, o la hermosa "Tangerine" muestran una faceta más delicada e introspectiva del grupo. Además, la producción es exquisita, capturando a la perfección la atmósfera de cada pieza.
En definitiva, "Led Zeppelin III" es un álbum valiente y a menudo subestimado. Es el sonido de una banda que se niega a ser encasillada y que demuestra que su talento va mucho más allá del hard rock. Por lo tanto, con el tiempo ha sido reivindicado como una de sus obras maestras y una pieza fundamental para entender su evolución.

[X]letra de Immigrant Song
We came from the land
Of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun
Where the hot springs flow
The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands
To fight the horde, singing and crying
Valhalla, I am coming
On we sweep
With threshing oar
Our only goal
Will be the western shore
We came from the land
Of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun
Where the hot springs flow
How soft your fields so green
Can whisper tales of gore
Of how we calmed the tides of war
We are your overlords
On we sweep
With threshing oar
Our only goal
Will be the western shore
So now you'd better stop
And rebuild all your ruins
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all your losing - FriendsVer letra 3:55
[X]letra de Friends
Bright light almost blinding
Black night still there shining
I can't stop, keep on climbing
Looking for what I knew
Had a friend, she once told me
You got love, you ain't lonely
Now she's gone and left me
Only looking for what I knew
Hum, I'm telling you now
The greatest thing, you ever can do now
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now
It's very easy just
Met a man on the roadside crying
without a friend, there's no denying
You're incomplete, they'll be no finding
Looking for what you knew
So anytime somebody needs you
Don't let them down, although it grieves you
Some day you'll need someone like they do
Looking for what you knew
Hum, I'm telling you now
The greatest thing you ever can do now
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now
It's very easy just
I'm telling you now
The greatest thing you ever can do now
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now
It's very easy
It's very easy
It's very easy
It's easy, easy, yeahComposición: Jimmy Page, Robert Plant - Celebration DayVer letra 3:29
[X]letra de Celebration Day
Her face is cracked from smiling, all the fears that she's been hiding
And it seems pretty soon everybody's gonna know
And her voice is sore from shouting, cheering winners who are losing
And she worries if their days are few and soon they'll have to go
My, my, my, I'm so happy
I'm gonna join the band
We are gonna dance and sing in celebration
We are in the promised land
She hears them talk of new ways to protect the home she lives in
Then she wonders what it's all about when they break down the door
Her name is Brown or White or Black, you know her very well
You hear her cries of mercy as the winners toll the bell
My, my, my, I'm so happy
I'm gonna join the band
We are gonna sing and dance in celebration
We are in the promised land
There is a train that leaves the station heading for your destination
But the price you pay to nowhere has increased a dollar more, yes, it has
And if you walk you're gonna get there though it takes a little longer
And when you see it in the distance you will wring your hands and moanComposición: Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, Robert Plant - Since I've Been Loving You 7:25
Composición: Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, Robert Plant - Out On The TilesVer letra 4:04
[X]letra de Out On The Tiles
As I walk down the highway all I do is sing this song
And a train that's passing my way helps the rhythm move along
There is no doubt about the words are clear
The voice is strong, is oh so strong
I'm just a simple guy, I live from day to day
A ray of sunshine melts my frown and blows my blues away
There's nothing more that I can say but on a day like today
I pass the time away and walk a quiet mile with you
All I need from you is all your love
All you got to give to me is all your love
All I need from you is all your love
All you got to give to me is all your love
Uh yeah, uh yeah!
Uh yeah, uh yeah!
I'm so glad I'm living and gonna tell the world I am
I got me a fine woman and she says that I'm her man
One thing that I know for sure gonna give her all the loving
Like nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody can
Standing in the noonday sun trying to flag a ride
People go and people come, see my rider right by my side
It's a total disgrace, they set the pace, it must be a race
And the best thing I can do is run
All I need from you is all your love
All you got to give to me is all your love
All I need from you is all your love
All you got to give to me is all your love
Uh yeah, uh yeah!
Uh yeah, uh yeah!Composición: Jimmy Page, John Bonham, Robert Plant - Gallows PoleVer letra 4:58
[X]letra de Gallows Pole
Hangman, hangman
Hold it a little while
Think I see my friends coming
Riding a many mile
Friends, did you get some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my dear friends
To keep me from the gallows pole?
What did you bring me to keep me from the gallows pole?
I couldn't get no silver, I couldn't get no gold
You know that we're too damn poor
To keep you from the gallows pole
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while
I think I see my brother coming
Riding a many mile
Brother, did you get me some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my brother
To keep me from the gallows pole?
Brother, I brought you some silver
I brought a little gold, I brought a little of everything
To keep you from the gallows pole
Yes, I brought you to keep you from the gallows pole
Hangman, hangman
Turn your head awhile
I think I see my sister coming
Riding a many mile, mile, mile
Sister, I implore you, take him by the hand
Take him to some shady bower
Save me from the wrath of this man
Please take him
Save me from the wrath of this man, man
Hangman, hangman
Upon your face a smile
Pray tell me that I'm free to ride
Ride for many mile, mile, mile
Oh, yes, you got a fine sister
She warmed my blood from cold
Brought my blood to boiling hot
To keep you from the gallows pole
Your brother brought me silver
Your sister warmed my soul
But now I laugh and pull so hard
And see you swinging on the gallows pole
Swinging on the gallows poleComposición: TraditionalArreglos: Jimmy Page, Robert Plant - TangerineVer letra 3:12
[X]letra de Tangerine
Measuring a summer's day
I only finds it slips so away to grey
The hours, they bring me pain
Tangerine, Tangerine
Living reflection from a dream
I was her love, she was my queen
And now a thousand years between
Thinking how it used to be
Does she still remember times like these?
To think of us again and I do
Tangerine, Tangerine
Living reflection from a dream
I was her love, she was my queen
And now a thousand years betweenComposición: Jimmy Page - That's The Way 5:38
Composición: Jimmy Page, Robert Plant - Bron-Y-Aur StompVer letra 4:20
[X]letra de Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Ah caught you smiling at me
That's the way it should be
Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine
Ah all the good times we had
I sang love songs so glad
Always smiling, never sad, so fine
As we walk down the country lanes
I'll be singing a song
Hear me calling your name
Hear the wind within the trees
Telling mother nature about you and me
Well if the sun shines so bright
Or on our way it's darkest night
The road we choose is always right, so fine
Ah can your love be so strong
When so many loves go wrong
Will our love go on and on
My, my, la de la, come on now it ain't too far
Tell your friends all around the world
Ain't no companion like a blue eyed merle
Come on now well let me tell you
What you're missing, missing, around them brick walls
So of one thing I am sure, it's a friendship so pure
Angels singing all around my door, so fine
Yeah, ain't but one thing to do spend my natural life with you
You're the finest dog I knew, so fine
When you're old and your eyes are dim
There ain't no old shep gonna happen again
We'll still go walking down country lanes
I'll sing the same old songs, hear me call your nameComposición: Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, Robert Plant - Hats Off To (Roy) HarperVer letra 3:41
[X]letra de Hats Off To (Roy) Harper
When I done quit hollering baby
I believe I'll shake 'em on down
Get my babe, won't be late
You know by that I mean seconds late
Ah, must I holler, must I shake 'em on down
Well I've been mistreated babe
I believe I'll shake 'em on down
Well I ain't no monkey, I can't climb no tree
No brown skin woman gonna make no monkey out of me
I ain't no monkey, sure can't climb no tree
I been mistreated babe
I believe I'll shake 'em on down
Well I've been mistreated babe
I believe I'll shake 'em on down
Listen mama, put on your morning gown
Put in your nightshirt mama
We gonna shake 'em down
Must I holler? Must I shake 'em on down?
Gave my baby a twenty dollar bill
If that don't get her, sure my shot, shot, shotgun will
Yeah, I gave my baby a twenty dollar bill
If that don't get that woman, I'm sure my shotgun willComposición: TraditionalArreglos: Charles Obscure

- juan: los diez trabajos que hicieron fueron fabulosos
- 2 dream: de poca madre este album
- Isidro: Aunque pueda parecer menos fuerte éste disco, contiene el suficiente rock pesado para no defraudar pero lo realmente maravilloso son el blues "Since" y las canciones folk-country de la segunda cara autenticas delicias para el oido. Led Zep tienen mucha música diferente.
