It was 46 years ago today (March 31st) that Led Zeppelin released it’s seventh album, Presence. The collection, which topped the Billboard 200 album charts for two weeks, included the instant radio classic, “Nobody’s Fault But Mine,” and featured one single released for the U.S. market, “Candy Store Rock,” which failed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100.
Presence, like all of Zeppelin’s works, was produced by Jimmy Page, and featured 10 tracks — nine of which were written by Page and Robert Plant, with the rocker “Royal Orleans,” being a group effort with the addition of John Paul Jones and John Bonham.
Robert Plant, who had sustained serious injuries in August of 1975 during a car crash on the Greek island of Rhodes, was forced to record the majority of his vocals while confined to a wheelchair.
