Led Zeppelin

In July 1973, during a landmark period of their career, Led Zeppelin was promoting their newest album, "Houses of the Holy," which had been released earlier that year. The live performance of "The Ocean" at Madison Square Garden illustrates the band's rising stature in rock music, having solidified their reputation as one of the genre's leading acts. This concert took place during a series of shows that showcased their expansive sound and the synergy within the band following the commercial success of their earlier albums.
