Overlooked Led Zeppelin Songs

I say All My Love. With the buttload of stuff that's was going on in that time period, it was incredible to see those guys pull a pretty great track in that album. Plus, John Paul Jones' keyboard parts, especially the solo, was awesome.

 

Jonesy is terribly underrated.

"Out on the Tiles" has a mean riff. The song's worth listening to for that alone.

 

As soon as I saw the thread title I thought of Out On The Tiles!

Kashmir

 

And the last song off of the first album. I don't remember the name (If the Sun Refused to Shine??) and my computer is very uncooperative today so I can't look it up.

 

I know I keep mentioning my age, but it really is frustrating to have the memory going.

 

The song I mentioned is on the second album, and the name is Thank You.

 

I got one thing right. It is the last song, but on the first not the second side. :|

 

"Thank You" signalled a deeper involvement in songwriting by singer Robert Plant, being the first Led Zeppelin song that he wrote all the lyrics for. According to various Led Zeppelin biographies, this is also the song that made Jimmy Page realise that Plant could now handle writing the majority of the lyrics for the band's songs. Plant wrote the song as a tribute to his then-wife Maureen

Neither are most Led Zeppelin songs, at this point.

 

I saw Page and Plant tour together in 1995, which was about twenty years past Zeppelin's apex- and now even that was nearly twenty years ago. He could still belt it out quite well back then, when he was merely in his late 40s. But I think it has been the right move for him to continue making new and different music since, rather than rehashing the same three dozen songs or so, for years upon years. He has done some interesting things in more recent times.

Speechless I am. Almost. He doesn't even vaguely resemble his younger self. The years have not been kind to my generation.
