In Through The Out Door (Vinyl)
Eclectic eighth album for Led Zeppelin.
“Marshalling their strength after the dark interlude of Presence — a period that extended far after its 1976 release, with the band spending a year in tax exile and Robert Plant suffering another personal tragedy when his son died — Led Zeppelin decided to push into new sonic territory on their eighth album, In Through the Out Door. A good deal of this aural adventurism derived from internal tensions within the band. Jimmy Page and John Bonham were in the throes of their own addictions, leaving Plant and John Paul Jones alone in the studio to play with the bassist’s new keyboard during the day… What’s striking about In Through the Out Door is how the Plant-Jones union points the way toward their respective solo careers, especially that of Plant.” – All Music
