Summary: Led Zeppelin 95% Incomplete
Review: Don't buy this book. It's a ripoff and shouldn't be in print. The guitar tablature consists of the very basic rythm of the songs with nothing else. In most songs, the rythm is even incomplete. There's no lead at all. Pay the extra 38 bucks and get the I-V box set. You'll be glad you did. The saying "Don't judge a book by it's cover" definitely applies to this one.

Summary: waste of your money
Review: don't buy this peice of junk, its a waste of trees and your money. the tabs are all wrong, half of the music isn't there, and it was written like the guy tabbing it had to leave in 5 minutes. the worst thing is that is only puts selective parts of a song in there like, for example, black dog has the intro and the chorus but as for the solo......nowhere to be found. and here's the entire tab for 'when the levee breaks'---
low E---3-0-3-0-3-0

this is the worst tab book ever printed and is a disgrace to led zeppelin.

Summary: Not Very Good... Only For Beginners
Review: I got this book when I was a beginner and I thought it was great. The songs looked so easy to play. One of my favorite songs, When The Levee Breaks, had only 3 notes in it (according to the book). I took it to my guitar teacher and every song I wanted to learn was wrong except for stairway to heaven. None of the solo's are in the book and many of the songs are tabbed so easily that they are wrong. It says that this book is for beginners and it is. If you are half-way descent at the guitar, don't buy this book.

Summary: Smashing
Review: I usualy despise reading, but because I had to do a non-fiction book report in English and I love Led Zeppelin I chose to do this book. I really enjoyed in and I couldn't put it down!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Your money is better spent burned!!
Review: Is this author serious!? I think someone accidently printed the rough draft. Either that or the transcriber needs to sober up and try again. Buy this book only if you've never heard a single Led Zeppelin song.

Summary: Guitar music for the first five records; some errors
Review: Led Zeppelin Complete contains forty songs from the first five albums *written* (book's emphasis) by Led Zeppelin. These include songs ranging from "Dazed and Confused" to "The Song Remains the Same." (And, of course, includes "Stairway to Heaven." :-)

Some of the songs have unusual tuning (e.g., Hats off to (Roy) Harper) and this is indicated. However, I'm not sure I agree how the chords match up with the music. For example, in Ramble On, the illustration shows E as 0-2-2-1-0-0, though the notation (and the music) clearly intend x-x-x-3-4-3. Perhaps this is an automation error.

Stairway to Heaven is presented very well, including showing the complex ("ooh, it makes me wonder...") strumming of D-sus4 -> D -> Am7, both in notation and tablature.

Overall, a worthy addition for the guitar aficionado. However, it'd be nice to see the follow-on with songs from their other records, especially: Kashmir, All of my Love, Hey Hey What Can I do and the bonus tracks.
