For those who think it's too long:
when it's good, longer is better than not enough. The changeups and splendid guitar riffs make it a great MOFO of a song. Just go with the flow and feel it.
An 8 in my book.

Everybody in this public toilet loves this song! Really puts a spring in my step on this bright crisp autumn day! At least, I think they like it, they're all banging on my cubicle door! They must want me to turn it up! OK, now they're starting to throw things over the door, the door's just been broken down, my word, you are a big gentleman...

Very long, but verse riff is one of their best

Would love to hear Zepp and the Doors played with equivalent frequency as Dylan, Neil Young, et al. are....especially during North American business hours!

Yes! And once again played, well-sequenced after The Mummers Dance. It even makes a sentence of sorts: The Mummers Dance — In The Light. Great visual.

I've been wondering for a while why I wasn't hearing this on RP, and along it comes just before I check to see if it had been mysteriously overlooked in the uploads dept. How the hell can you follow Kashmir in a running order? Just like this! Sublime, though helping along with a little judicious trimming on the timing choice of crossfading in and out doesn't go amiss, when heard in this radio running order. Give me five! In a four sticks kinda way.  Then bring me Gong C O'N {#Propeller}

I guess that's why this heterosexual female never considered it a phase. Once LZ, always LZ. It's imprinted. It's all there - complete music.

To which westslope replied:  I dunno.  It was overplayed and overplayed loudly at parties.....    Some of the edge struck me as gratuitous....  There were lots of bands that were as or more inspiring during the period.

 
And of course there's the whole thing about Robert Plant's cat doing all the singing...  No LZ phase for me.

Back then, I liked and respected LZ but would never have been classified as a huge fan.  About one year ago, I revisited their catalog and been a huge fan ever since.  I am glad I kept it in the freezer for 35+ years, it came out a fresh as new.

My LZ phase has lasted about 42 years so far! 

A stellar track from a stellar album.
