“It was crafted”: the 1971 album Robert Plant called the most “beautifully written”Robert Plant never tried to sugarcoat anything that he sang in Led Zeppelin. And with someone like Jimmy Page by his side, Led Zeppelin were willing to test every single boundary that anyone set up for them when they first began. Absolutely not, and that was all well and good with Plant. And compared to their more organic rock and roll tunes, ‘The Battle of Evermore’ is the break from all the madness. Everything about Led Zeppelin IV works perfectly, but considering it a masterpiece wasn’t what it was all about for Plant.
