Led Zeppelin is an english rock band from the 1970's. Their 3rd album, Led Zeppelin 3, is an often under appreciated one. Although it contains the hit "Immigrant Song", the large number of acoustic songs marked a departure from the hard rock of the debut and 2nd efforts, and sales were not nearly as high for this album. I should note, this album benefits by far the most from the mastering at classic records, especially in the acoustic numbers. Classic records, who mastered this release, is a record mastering company specializing in audiophile Vinyl pressings [like this 200gram 45rpm example] , commonly using 2 records where 1 would suffice to minimize inner groove usage and thus distorion, and using a custom all tube cutting and mastering process. They [CR] seek to perfectly replicate the original vinyl pressings in both sound and asthetics [cover art, liner notes, even paper texture, down to a creepy level of detail usually], while eliminating surface noise and gaining new clarity and quality of acoustics compared to standard releases. Very similar to MFSL in almost every meaningful regard, vinyl only obviously.

wiki has this to say:
It has been suggested that Led Zeppelin III was something of a watershed release for the band, as it marked a change from Page's domination of the first two albums towards a more democratic affair in which all four group members offered up their own compositions and ideas - a pattern that would continue in future sessions.[1] The album added acoustic and folk rock elements to the band's established rock and blues repertoire, which also helped endear the band to progressive rock fans. However, some detractors attacked the heavier tracks as being mindless noise, whilst the acoustic material was criticised by others for imitating the music of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.
