On their first two albums, Led Zeppelin unleashed a relentless barrage of heavy blues and rockabilly riffs, but Led Zeppelin III provided the band with the necessary room to grow musically. While there are still a handful of metallic rockers, it is built on a folky, acoustic foundation that gives the music extra depth. And even the rockers aren't as straightforward as before: the galloping "Immigrant Song" is powered by Robert Plant’s banshee wail, "Celebration Day" turns blues-rock inside out with a warped slide guitar riff, and "Out on the Tiles" lumbers along with a tricky, multi-part riff. Nevertheless, the heart of the album lies on the second side, when the band delves deeply into English folk. "Gallows Pole" updates a traditional tune with a menacing flair, and "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp" is an infectious acoustic romp, while "That's the Way" and "Tangerine" are shimmering songs with graceful country flourishes (ALLMusic).

EX: Some slight wear to cover (As described in some detail in the listing). At least a couple of visual marks on the vinyl but light in nature. Record should play well.
VG+: The cover may have minor seam splits, ring wear, cover wear, small sticker tears etc. On the vinyl there may be visual marks (e.g. light scuffs, hairline scratches). There may be some intermittent, light background noise.
VG: More wear on cover and more wear on record (multiple marks). May be some repetitive light ticks or occasional pops but record will play without skipping or sticking.
VG-: The cover will have seam splits (possibly taped repaired, but only with scotch tape. No duct tape or masking tape repairs. May have some magic-marker writing. The record may have some deeper audible scratches. There will be some clicks and pops, more consistently than that of a VG record but record will play without skipping/sticking.
G: In essence, the cover will look pretty much trashed. The record will have heavy wear, deep scratches and very apparent surface noise, clicks or pops.
Note: LPs are graded visually and conservatively under bright lights. Those with questionable marks are play graded
