LED ZEPPELIN III
More Info
Their third album, Led Zeppelin III,
was written in Bron-Yr-Aur, a remote cottage in Wales.
It was acoustic and semi-acoustic material with Celtic
mysticism thrown into the pot as well.
Work continued at an old Hampshire stately
home called Headley Grange. During the sessions, they
played some European dates, including a spectacular show
at Frankfurt's Festhalle where they broke all existing
attendance records by drawing some 11,000 fans.
Page mixed the album in the US
during August 1970 when the band
returned for their fifth tour.
The band now commanded a minimum fee of $25,000 per performance,
and they decided to cease working with any opening acts,
thereby allowing the band to extend their appearances.
At New York's Madison Square Garden on 19 September,
Led Zeppelin for the first time grossed in excess of $100,000 for a single performance.
Led Zeppelin III was released by Atlantic
on 5 October 1970 with advance orders in excess of 700,000
copies in America and more than 60,000 in the UK.
In only its second week, it shot to number one and
stayed there for a month. Over time, its chart
duration wasn't as favourable as the first two albums
but compared with other acts of the time like the Rolling Stones
the sales were still good.
