It was written and recorded
during a tumultuous time
in the band's history,
as singer
Robert Plant
was recuperating
from serious injuries
he had sustained
the previous year
in a car accident.
Nevertheless,
guitarist
Jimmy Page describes
Presence as the band's
"most important"
album,
proving they
would continue
and succeed
despite their turmoil.

Six of the seven songs
on the album are
Page and Plant compositions;
the remaining song being
credited to all four band members.

Both Page and Plant
had planned this album's
recording session as a
return to hard rock,
much like their
debut album,
except at a
new level of complexity.
It marked a change
in the Led Zeppelin
sound towards
more straightforward,
guitar-based jams.
Whereas their
previous albums
up to and including
the previous year's
Physical Graffiti
contain electric
hard rock anthems
balanced with
acoustic ballads
and intricate
arrangements
