Led Zeppelin - Perro Negro

Review by ramon verduzco

Alright, let’s dive into Perro Negro by Led Zeppelin. Yeah, I know—it’s not the official name of the album, but if you’re spinning this bad boy in Argentina or Ecuador back in ‘72, that’s what you’d see on the cover. It’s basically their untitled fourth record (you know, the one with the dude hauling wood on the front), just rebranded for South America. Classic rock gold, straight-up. First off, let’s talk about “Black Dog.” Or should I say… Perro Negro? This track is a beast. The riff slaps so hard it feels like Jimmy Page plugged his guitar into a lightning storm. It’s raw, punchy, and sticks to your brain like gum under a desk. What makes it unforgettable? That stop-start groove. Just when you think the song’s gonna chill, BAM—it flips back into high gear. Robert Plant’s vocals soar like he’s auditioning for the role of Rock God Supreme, and John Paul Jones’ basslines glue everything together perfectly. It’s the kind of song that makes you wanna crank the volume and annoy your neighbors. Then there’s “Misty Mountain Hop.” Man, this one takes me somewhere else entirely. It’s groovy as hell, with lyrics that feel like they were scribbled during a hippie daydream. Plant talks about Tolkien vibes and getting hassled by cops while tripping out in nature. The whole thing has this laid-back bounce to it, thanks to John Bonham’s drumming keeping things tight without stealing the spotlight. You can tell these guys weren’t trying too hard—they just jammed, and magic spilled out. Honestly, every time I hear this track, I picture myself running through some misty forest with a cloak on. Weird visual? Maybe. But hey, that’s Zeppelin for ya. Jimmy Page produced this masterpiece, and you can tell he had zero chill about perfection. Every note feels intentional yet wild, like they’re breaking rules but making new ones at the same time. And shoutout to Atlantic Records for letting them do their thing—no suits meddling here. These dudes wrote from the heart, even if said heart was fueled by late-night whiskey sessions and questionable life choices. Reflecting on Perro Negro, I’m reminded how timeless this stuff really is. Like, sure, it came out over 50 years ago, but it doesn’t sound dated at all. If anything, it hits harder now because we don’t get music like this anymore. Oh, and here’s a random thought: Why didn’t anyone ever make a live-action movie based on “Misty Mountain Hop”? Imagine dragons, fog machines, and Plant wandering around looking confused. Hollywood missed a trick there. Anyway, whether you call it Led Zeppelin IV, Zoso, or Perro Negro, this album will always be essential listening. Turn it up loud—you won’t regret it. Unless your landlord hates fun.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s something cool: The album *Perro Negro* by Led Zeppelin isn’t actually its real title. It’s a fan-made release from 1972, featuring tracks like "Black Dog" and "Misty Mountain Hop." These songs originally appeared on their proper albums, but this version was pressed in Argentina and Ecuador under a different name. Jimmy Page, the band’s producer and guitarist, had no official involvement in this release. It’s a quirky piece of rock history that shows how Led Zeppelin’s music spread globally, even in unofficial ways.
