Yeah. All good ones. Was Graham Parker's Squeezing out Sparks from that year? Neil Young's Rust Never Sleeps?

In Through the Out Door - Led Zeppelin
I remember when this album came out. I was a freshman at LSU and went in between classes to the Record Rink on College Drive and bought this record. I had no idea that my beloved Led Zeppelin could produce such a huge, steaming pile of suck. I had waited for months with bated breath for this LP; boy was I disappointed.

Most of those albums suck.
