"Led Zeppelin III" was recorded between January and July 1970 and was released on October 5, 1970 by Atlantic Records. Composed largely at a remote cottage in Wales known as Bron-Yr-Aur, this work represented a maturing of the band's music towards a greater emphasis on folk and acoustic sounds. This surprised many fans and critics, and upon its release the album received rather indifferent reviews. Although it is not one of the highest sellers in LED ZEPPELIN's catalogue, "Led Zeppelin III" is now generally praised, and acknowledged as representing an important milestone in the band's history.
