1	Pyromania (1983) more music like this by Def Leppard While Def Leppard had obviously wanted to write big-sounding anthems on their previous records, Pyromania was where the band's vision coalesced and gelled into something more. More than ever before, the band's songs on Pyromania are driven by catchy, shiny melodic hooks instead of heavy guitar riffs, although the latter do pop up once in a while. ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $13.34!
2	Houses of the Holy (1973) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Houses of the Holy follows the same basic pattern as Led Zeppelin IV, but the approach is looser and more relaxed. Jimmy Page's riffs rely on ringing, folky hooks as much as they do on thundering blues-rock, giving the album a lighter, more open atmosphere. While the pseudo-reggae of "D'Yer Mak'er" and the affectionate James Brown send-up "The ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $7.95!
3	Led Zeppelin IV (1971) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Encompassing heavy metal, folk, pure rock & roll, and blues, Led Zeppelin's untitled fourth album is a monolithic record, defining not only Led Zeppelin but the sound and style of '70s hard rock. Expanding on the breakthroughs of III, Zeppelin fuse their majestic hard rock with a mystical, rural English folk that gives the record an epic scope. ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $13.59!
4	Led Zeppelin (1969) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin had a fully formed, distinctive sound from the outset, as their eponymous debut illustrates. Taking the heavy, distorted electric blues of Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, and Cream to an extreme, Zeppelin created a majestic, powerful brand of guitar rock constructed around simple, memorable riffs and lumbering rhythms. But the key to the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.52!
5	Vault: Def Leppard Greatest Hits (1995) more music like this by Def Leppard Def Leppard was untouchable in the '80s. Over the course of four albums, the band established itself as one of the best and most popular hard rock/heavy metal groups of the decade, scoring a long list of hit singles. Vault compiles the biggest of those hits, as well as selections from their first album of the '90s, Adrenalize, and the outtakes ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $10.50!
6	Led Zeppelin II (1969) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Recorded quickly during Led Zeppelin's first American tours, Led Zeppelin II provided the blueprint for all the heavy metal bands that followed it. Since the group could only enter the studio for brief amounts of time, most of the songs that compose II are reworked blues and rock & roll standards that the band was performing on-stage at the time. ... see all copies from $7.75! new only from $16.52!
7	Presence (1976) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Presence scales back the size of Physical Graffiti to a single album, but it retains the grandiose scope of that double record. If anything, Presence has more majestic epics than its predecessor, opening with the surging, ten-minute "Achilles Last Stand" and closing with the meandering, nearly ten-minute "Tea for One." In between, Led Zeppelin add ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $5.47!
8	The Very Best of Deep Purple [Rhino] (2000) more music like this by Deep Purple Rhino Records first attracted notice for its ability to assemble good, well-thought-out, best-of and greatest-hits compilations of acts who had enjoyed a chart placement (or two) without ever getting a proper hits package from their own labels; a little later Rhino started their "Very Best Of" series, which managed to be medium-weight but pretty ... see all copies from $5.93! new only from $7.09!
9	Greatest Hits, Vols. 1 & 2 (1995) more music like this by Queen Queen's greatest-hits collections have contained different track listings throughout the world. In the band's native England they scored more hits than anywhere else, hence their compilations are usually more extensive. When Hollywood Records purchased the U.S. Queen catalog in the early '90s, the label reissued the long out of print Greatest Hits ... see all copies from $16.91! new only from $19.61!
10	Paranoid (1971) more music like this by Black Sabbath Paranoid was not only Black Sabbath's most popular record (it was a number one smash in the U.K., and "Paranoid" and "Iron Man" both scraped the U.S. charts despite virtually nonexistent radio play), it also stands as one of the greatest and most influential heavy metal albums of all time. Paranoid refined Black Sabbath's signature sound -- ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $9.00!
11 view cover	Physical Graffiti (1975) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin returned from a nearly two-year hiatus in 1975 with Physical Graffiti, a sprawling, ambitious double album. Zeppelin treat many of the songs on Physical Graffiti as forays into individual styles, only occasionally synthesizing sounds, notably on the tense, Eastern-influenced "Kashmir." With John Paul Jones' galloping keyboard, ... see all copies from $3.74! new only from $21.59!
12 view cover	In Through the Out Door (1979) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Somewhere between Presence and In Through the Out Door, disco, punk, and new wave had overtaken rock & roll, and Led Zeppelin chose to tentatively embrace these pop revolutions, adding synthesizers to the mix and emphasizing John Bonham's inherent way with a groove. The album's opening number, "In the Evening," with its stomping rhythms and heavy, ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $15.07!
13 view cover	Rock of Ages: The Definitive Collection (2005) more music like this by Def Leppard The 2005 double-disc set Rock of Ages: The Definitive Collection is the second Def Leppard compilation to be released in the U.S. The first, Vault: Def Leppard Greatest Hits, appeared ten years earlier, and while the band was active in the decade separating the two albums, charting fairly consistently, it didn't have any major hits during that ... see all copies from $11.39! new only from $11.39!
14 view cover	The Platinum Collection, Vol. 1-3 (2001) more music like this by Queen Queen's The Platinum Collection collection places the group's three previously released Greatest Hits albums into one box set -- colored platinum, of course. Although this doesn't serve much use for fans that already have all three collections -- or all of the albums, for that matter -- it is useful for listeners that want to get all three discs ... see all copies from $12.88! new only from $20.87!
15 view cover	Mothership [Bonus DVD] (2007) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin's reunion for an Ahmet Ertegun tribute concert in November 2007 (pushed back a couple of weeks due to a finger injury Jimmy Page sustained during rehearsals) seemed like a spur of the moment thing -- but how spontaneous could it have been if it just happened to coincide with the release of an expanded The Song Remains the Same on both ... see all copies from $18.72! new only from $21.94!
16 view cover	Mothership (2007) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin's reunion for an Ahmet Ertegun tribute concert in November 2007 (pushed back a couple of weeks due to a finger injury Jimmy Page sustained during rehearsals) seemed like a spur of the moment thing -- but how spontaneous could it have been if it just happened to coincide with the release of an expanded The Song Remains the Same on both ... see all copies from $4.68! new only from $9.58!
17 view cover	Led Zeppelin III (1970) more music like this by Led Zeppelin On their first two albums, Led Zeppelin unleashed a relentless barrage of heavy blues and rockabilly riffs, but Led Zeppelin III provided the band with the necessary room to grow musically. While there are still a handful of metallic rockers, III is built on a folky, acoustic foundation that gives the music extra depth. And even the rockers aren't ... see all copies from $2.94! new only from $16.52!
18 view cover	High 'N' Dry (1981) more music like this by Def Leppard Def Leppard's second album, High 'N' Dry, continues in the vein of the anthemic, working-class hard rock of their debut. While still opting for a controlled musical attack and melodies as big-sounding and stadium-ready as possible, the band opens up its arrangements a bit more on High 'N' Dry, letting the songs breathe and groove while the rhythm ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $11.21!
19 view cover	Demons and Wizards (1972) more music like this by Uriah Heep This is the album that solidified Uriah Heep's reputation as a master of gothic-inflected heavy metal. From short, sharp rock songs to lengthy, musically dense epics, Demons and Wizards finds Uriah Heep covering all the bases with style and power. The album's approach is set with its lead-off track, "The Wizard": it starts as a simple acoustic ... see all copies from $5.67! new only from $7.25!
20 view cover	A Day at the Races (1976) more music like this by Queen In every sense, A Day at the Races is an unapologetic sequel to A Night at the Opera, the 1975 breakthrough that established Queen as rock & roll royalty. The band never attempts to hide that the record is a sequel -- the two albums boast the same variation on the same cover art, the titles are both taken from old Marx Brothers films and serve as ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $12.44!
21 view cover	Led Zeppelin [Box Set] (1990) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin's primary method of artistic expression was their albums. Although they had a handful of hit singles and although selected album tracks were played endlessly on the radio, the true range of their music is only evident on the original albums, which were carefully sequenced and assembled. Consequently, the notion of a Led Zeppelin ... see all copies from $41.79! new only from $41.79!
22 view cover	Classic Queen (1992) more music like this by Queen Essentially, this 17-track album is a second-volume Queen's Greatest Hits, picking up the story from that album's 1981 release and taking it to the end of Queen's career. But the album also contains a few tracks -- "Bohemian Rhapsody," "Keep Yourself Alive," and "Under Pressure" -- that appeared on that first set, as well as a couple -- "Stone ... see all copies from $2.77! new only from $13.34!
23 view cover	The Game (1980) more music like this by Queen Queen had long been one of the biggest bands in the world by 1980's The Game, but this album was the first time they made a glossy, unabashed pop album, one that was designed to sound exactly like its time. They might be posed in leather jackets on the cover, but they hardly sound tough or menacing -- they rarely rock , at least not in the ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $6.99!
24 view cover	Greatest Hits [Hollywood] (1992) more music like this by Queen This is going to take a little explaining. In 1981, when it was contracted to Elektra Records in the U.S., Queen released an album called Greatest Hits (Elektra 564), which contained 14 songs that chronicled singles from 1973 to 1981. In 1990, Hollywood Records acquired CD rights to Queen's catalog, by which time the Elektra Greatest Hits had gone ... see all copies from $2.59! new only from $6.98!
25 view cover	Machine Head (1972) more music like this by Deep Purple Led Zeppelin's fourth album, Black Sabbath's Paranoid, and Deep Purple's Machine Head have stood the test of time as the Holy Trinity of English hard rock and heavy metal, serving as the fundamental blueprints followed by virtually every heavy rock & roll band since the early '70s. And, though it is probably the least celebrated of the three, ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $7.03!
