About This Track

The song was recorded live in the studio with very little overdubbing. John Paul Jones played Hammond Organ on the song, using the bass pedals for the bassline. It was the only track from the third album that the band had played live prior to the recording sessions, but was reportedly the hardest to record. One story mentions Jimmy Page taking a break following a series of failed attempts to track the solo. Seemingly unable to get the tone he was craving, he set about a walk around the studio to clear his mind. Sitting outside of the recording area was an unplugged amplifier, which he utilised, and recorded the solo we hear today on the next take. Audio engineer Terry Manning called it “The best rock guitar solo of all time.”

    No honestly don`t fuck Stairway - Stairway is a great song, one of the greatest I know - this one just happens to be even greater! [2] Zep's chilled songs are just incredible. This, Stairway, No Quarter, beautiful.

    I was raised on a strict diet of Led Zeppelin when I was young. Back in the day when there were only cassettes to play in the car. We looped those cassettes endlessly and whenever this came on me and my brothers went completely silent and calm, taken away by the music. Those were the days :'-)

    Heavily inspired by Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin, IMHO.

    Jimmy Page poured a lot of feeling into his guitar playing this one!!

    I don't think this is their greatest, If you're looking to similar songs "Babe I'm gonna Leave you" is much better sounding to me.
