| THE OBJECT.
Why underrated?.This record is one of the most powerful,honest and well-recording in the history of Hard-Rock."Achilles Last Stand" is one of the most brilliant,creative and explosive songs ever,the guitar-drumm coordination is unique,the track is a "crescendo" with an epic lyrics.Masterpice."For Your Life",also,is a powerful track featuring superb drumming from Bonzo and great guitar from Jimmy,the rythm is sensual,erotic,unique."Tea for One" is a slow blues and the other tracks are wonderful.When "Presence" was recorded the band has a "dark period",however,The Group was excellent in this albumn.On other hand,for you,What represent THE OBJECT?,-Do you remember to Aleister Crowley and Astrum Argentum?-.I love it.

| In The Presence Of The Obelisk
"Presence" is a brutal electric album..no acoustic pieces or keyboard...and is perhaps the last truly classic Zep album. "Achilles Last Stand" launches the proceedings on a formidable note, featuring incendiary guitar and drum; a notable anthem following on the heels of "Stairway To Heaven" and "Kashmir". Other potent tracks include "Nobody's Fault But Mine", Zep's "Hellhound On My Trail" , containing a frenzied blues-rock beat as well as a mercurial blasty harmomnica break and "Tea For One', a slow lengthy blues about the dark side of fame and success. An underrated album, "Presence" is a definite must-have, and be careful not to rouse that sleeping Albion.

By 1976 the best years of Rock were coming to an end (67-77). The truth is that this album may have been made to quickly. Tea for One reflects that and is in many respects a weaker version of Since I've Been Loving You. But, Achilles still stands as probably Zep's greatest triumph. This is far and away Page's best guitar solo, and as he did consistently throught the 70's he dwarfs any and all guitarists that came before or after him. Clapton, Beck and even Hendrix himself cannot touch the man. Songs like Royal Orleans, Candy Store Rock, and Hots on for Nowhere are sensational. This is probably the last true great album of the 70's. It is especially true with the farce that punk would pull on London around this time that really did not change rock at all, but over time did change people's perceptions of what really did happen. Truth is that real zeppelin fans understand the levels that the band was ascending to (again)! The rest of you probably will not get it.

| One of the most unknown Master Peices out there!!!
Its sad to see that so many people dont like this great work of art. I think its funny when someone says that In Through The Out Door is better then this because its not even close. In Through the out door is full of keyboards. fans never got on Zep for using keyboards which is funny because when Van Halen started using em many fans hated it. This album is a master Peice. Why? Well, first off the guitar work is some of the best ever. Achiles Last Stand has some of the best guitar and drumming effort ever put out by any band. No Bodys Fault But Mine is another Classic. Tea For One is a blues song with a simular feel to early Zeppelin. The other songs are all classics too. This album is right up there with the first 6 albums. Its also the bands favorite work.

i listen to this album more than any other zeppelin cd even though i consider physical graffiti to be the greatest album ever recorded in human history. PRESENCE is very unique there has not been and never will be a record like it. some rock journalist compared the pearl jam cd to presence in some stupid way. they should never compare anything to it because it simply is one of a kind. there are no synthesizers or acoustic guitars on it. as far as i can tell it's elctric guitars, bass, drums, vocals, and that harmonica thing on nobodies fault but mine. achilles last stand is an epic which no other rock band will ever match in artistry or power. for your life rocks hard, i don't hear anything this cool on any other bands albums. royal orleans is a great song with drug induced guitar solos that exude pure urgent desperation i love guitar sounds like that. nobodies fault but mine has great guitar phasing effect sounds the drums and everything rock hard, the solo is great it is a simple song but very soulfully done so it becomes bigger.
