The ambitious centrepiece to their ground-breaking magnum opus Physical Graffiti, the immediacy of the song thumps through the speakers with an explosive cymbal blast before settling into a crunchily ascending guitar riff; Bonhams mighty drumming hypnotically carries it while the Middle Eastern-style horn and string arrangement usher it into fantastical realms. Plant, of course, wails and chants, going into full space-headed, mystical mode Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dreams; I am a traveller from both time and space, to be where I have been. Its classic, misty-eyed Plant. Indeed, the entire composition is classic Zeppelin John Paul Jones suggested that it showcases all of the elements that made the Led Zeppelin sound while Page admitted it was the song he was most proud of because it possessed all the latent power and energy that wasnt heavy metal. The majestic and archetypal Led Zeppelin song transcendent and utterly brilliant.
Chris James Peet says hello. His interests include hoping for the best and sitting in chairs. He much prefers moaning to counting his blessings and suffers fools gladly. He also likes to look out of the window and check what's in the fridge but he hates standing up, dripping taps and reality.
