Top 6 Post-Physical Graffiti Led Zeppelin Songs

3. I'm Gonna Crawl

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fo75iBOpdYA Every bit as chilling as Since I€™ve Been Loving You, Led Zeppelin were a band who could always be counted on to tackle the blues, and do so in an idiosyncratic way. A world away from their immediately previous blues outing, Presence€™s Tea For One, I€™m Gonna Crawl rolls in like fog over the Thames, complete with droning keys, murky guitar, and Bonham€™s drums sounding like oars dipping in and out of the river, carrying the song along. The strongest ballad of Led Zeppelin€™s later days, I€™m Gonna Crawl offers a tantalizing glimpse of the blues revival of the 80s spearheaded by the likes of Stevie Ray Vaughn. I€™m Gonna Crawl is also a sad, poignant reminder of how Zeppelin were during the time of In Through The Out Door€™s recording. Battered and bruised, with more scars to follow, and I€™m Gonna Crawl perfectly sums up how they might have felt back then.
