High Res Audio Fans Have a Whole Lotta Love for Led Zeppelin with Most Popular Downloads on HDTracks

Big Picture Big Sound reports:
Just last month, we mentioned that HDtracks had added reissued deluxe editions of the first three Led Zeppelin albums to its growing lineup of high-resolution audio options. Well, it looks like a lot of you still have a "whole lotta love" for this classic rock band.

The company just announced its top 10 list of high-res downloads for the second quarter of 2014, which includes Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II and Led Zeppelin III. The results were compiled using data covering all of the downloads from April 1 through June 30, 2014. Even though all three of these Atlantic Records recordings weren't released on HDtracks until just last month, they still managed to take the top three spots.

Of course, that's probably because these three albums are bursting with some of the most memorable songs in rock history, including "Heartbreaker," "Dazed and Confused," "Thank You," "The Immigrant Song."
The triumph of Led Zeppelin.
