That was great Amy, I would love for you to listen to "the Battle of evermore". Robert P. sings a duet with Sandy Denny, an English folksinger who's voice blended well with Robert's. Again, I really enjoyed your reaction/analysis. 👍

Jimmy Page wrote and recorded this song for The Yardbirds but then rewrote the lyrics for the Led Zeppelin version Tangerine was apparently his pet name for Lori Maddox.

Loved this first listen. Led Zeppelin have so many under appreciated songs and a I consider this one of them. Happy to see Amy also enjoyed it. 😎

I second that, for the longest time I thought Robert was just singing in a sort of falsetto.

I really enjoyed this Amy! Always a good idea to come back to LZ, isn't it :) I really think you would like their beautiful "Rain Song"

Always love when you revisit Zeppelin....my favorite band. This is a very deep cut....wonder how it got chosen.......They have many beautiful folk-based songs.....Ten Years Gone; Going to California; That's the Way; Battle of Evermore; The Rain Song......I don't think Amy has heard any of these?

Evelyn

imo, the most sadness that Plant brings to his voice while in Zeppelin was for the song Tea for One.....You can just feel his loneliness at being away from his family. Very emotive and effective. Great slow blues song.

Evelyn

to your question: That's Robert Plant double-tracked. And yes, deliberately out of sync. I must say, being a choir person, it kinda drives me nuts. 😏 and I swear that Page's guitar is flat when he goes high on that solo.....makes me wince.

Evelyn

Vlad, from the way Amy has reacted to the 5 or so songs From Zeppelin that she's heard, (very positively) don't you think it would be appropriate for her to do, say, a 20 song run for them? Especially since the concert/documentary movie Becoming Led Zeppelin is being released in early February??? I think that would be very cool.

So of course you always compare to the Beatles, but I always think of the Beatles as the monster band of the 60s, and then Zeppelin as the monster band of the 70s. Very different but each characterized by a huge range of sounds and a determination to do their own thing and changing over time. If there was a championship belt for rock. Michael Jackson in the 80s (a pop-dominant decade). Then to Metallica. Then I guess to Taylor Swift? (Back to a pop era again).
