  Thanks for the Link Zeito... this just proves that Ol Rockers never die ... he still engrossed in his music and no loss of stamina. :-)

Dazed and Confused is also the title to a good film by Richard Linklater.

Love Zep but always felt that Robert Plant was the weak link. He actually sounds better today than he ever did screeching in the ol' days.

Genius!!! Don't really need to say any more.......


(but I did see Robert Plant at the WOMAD festival a few weeks ago, and he has a lot of Zep stuff in his set... but radically reworked, with Juldeh Camara taking the place of Jimmy Page, playing Zep riffs on his one-string whatever.... brilliant that the old boy is still looking to push the boundaries and not conform to other people's expectations... and he's still in fine voice too!

Have a neighbour whose 7 year old got loaned a guitar and old tube amp. He can't play much but strums along to music, air guitar. Was over there plugged the guitar in tuned it up, turn the amp up and played this and his eyes popped out of his head. His dad tells me his son has asked him to get this CD. The Led Zep legacy continues on

And 1969 was the best. Led Zepplin I and II released that year.

Overplayed... and incredibly disappointed with the 8.2.

This used to get overplayed for a reason.  And that's the same reason this should be a 9.5.

I never noticed before, but this song is unique — the verses have vocals but chorus is instrumental. And what a chorus it is!

Mom mom used to have a reel to reel player, (does anyone remember those?) with a bunch of Zep albums on one reel. The sound quality was fantastic. As a kid, I would frequently "throw on" the Zeppelin reel to Zep I - and when this song came on, particularly the exquisitely expressive guitar hook in the chorus, I would roll around, literally ROLL AROUND on the living room floor in absolute paroxysms of pleasure.

How's that for music geek-ism?

Story that I've read is that Pagey stole that song from a guy named Jake Holmes who was not in the Yardbirds (he opened for the Yardbirds which is where Jimmy heard "Dazed").

Jake sued and won.

Go give "The Above Ground Sound" of Jake Holmes a listen and t'would appear to be the case.

As the saying goes; "nothing is created in a vacuum"
 

I don't think Jake Holmes ever brought legal action against Jimmy Page for this song, but it's patently obvious that Page "borrowed" it.  Clip here.

Great song in any case.
 
Jake FINALLY did this in 2010.  It's not just borrowed... it's the same song.  Only with lots of acid added...
