My sister Linda amassed a goldmine of records throughout the 1970s; digging into it one day I came upon Physical Graffiti, Led Zeppelin's double album released in 1975. Like the Stones' Exile on Main Street (1972), it keeps on giving decades later. I can listen to this one for hours on end, like a nice bit of Miles Davis or John Coltrane (also first got into via Linda's eclectic vinyl stacks). Thank you, Linda -- again!

I haven't listened to Zeppelin as much as the Stones, but this gives me a reminder to go do it.
Uau! Its sister has good musical taste very! She would also not nauseate! Beijus,
Erik, Led Zeppelin was one of my favorites in the 70's and is now one of my son's favs!
When I first started learning to play guitar in the late seventies, and first started listening to Zeppelin, I devoured the Physical Graffiti album. Nice analogy to Exile.
My fifteen year old son loves Zeppelin as well.
i love Zeppelin
i live a couple of blocks from the buildings on the cover of PG. everytime i walk down the block (St Marks Place) i see people taking pictures of the buildings
Very cool. I like this one a lot. Good selection for a song to play, as well. I've always been more of a Black Sabbath fan than a Zep fan, but the Zep will surely have a good place in my heart.
Keep posting stuff like this i really like it
I always thought, in some strange way, that Exile On Main Street & PG were somehow compliments to each other. They both have an powerful, summer feel to them, as if they were records intended to be listened to on a warm, clear summer's day while drinking whiskey and chilling.
