"Take my hand, child, come with me"
It's to a castle I will take you
Where what's to be, they say will be
A-catch the wind, see us spin
Sail away, leave today
Way up high in the sky, and whoah!
But the wind won't blow, we really shouldn't go
It only goes to show that you will be mine by takin' our time
Oooh, ho-whoa
And if you say to me tomorrow
"Oh, what fun it all would be"
Then what's to stop us, pretty baby-ay
But what is and what should never be
A-catch the wind, see us spin
Sail away, leave today
Way up high in the sky, and whoah!
But the wind won't blow, we really shouldn't go
Only goes to show that you will be mine a-by takin' our time
Oooh, ohh, oh
So if you wake up with the sunrise
And all your dreams are still as new
And happiness is what you need so bad
Well, girl, the answer lies (with) you, yeah
A-catch the wind, see us spin
Sail away, leave today
Way up high in the sky, and whoah!
But the wind won't blow, we really shouldn't go
It only goes to show-ow that you will be mine by takin' our time
Oooh
Hey, ho, ma
A-well, the wind won't blow, and we really shouldn't go
And it only goes to show-whoa-whoa-whoa
Catch the wind, we're gonna see us spin
We're gonna sail, leave today-a
A-do-do-do, ba-ba-n-do, oh
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, yeah
Everybody I know seems to know me well
But they're never gonna know I'm gonna move like hell
A-baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, ho, I love ya
Baby, baby, babe, huh, oh, I love ya
Do, no, no, no, no, no, no, come on, now
4/3/23, still misspelled ....
11/02/23 Still misspelled BillG - the album should read Led Zeppelin II (two P's one L)
Played this many times on the old console stereo. The guitar bit going from back and forth from left to right channel blew me away at the time.
still does - in the car - wow
Early summer in 1969 at Age 14, my friend comes back from catechism class and says "the Nuns are taking us to see Led Zeppelin". It was hard to believe to say the least but on July 12, I found myself on a church bus heading to see the concert at the Spectrum in Philadelphia. The tour was set up to promote their upcoming Led Zeppelin II album that was released two months later. So yeah, I've always liked the band but I must admit that I'm a bit partial to "their early stuff". Never did find what the Nuns were doing during the concert.
"the Nuns are taking us to see Led Zeppelin".
My head exploded a little when I read that. Bless the sisters. (Your capitalization of "Nuns" tells me they still have a hold over you...)
My partner just asked me "who was that". Told him Led Zeppelin. He says "must not be a popular song by them".
He's a child of the 1960s but grew up isolated. I'm helping! Turned it up REAL LOUD!
Was he raised in a barn? Banned from listening to the radio?
How good of you to help him out!
Will work the rest of the summer to replace.
Worth it!!

oh my
its friday in aug 2022
when I was 19 in 1969 I slapped a set of headphones on my 60 yr old father`s head and had him listen to Whole Lotta Love. His jaw dropped, literally, and he kept turning to his right and his left as the music swirled from one ear to the next. He was rapt. When it was over he pulled the headphones off and sat there for a minute without saying a word. Then `` LUCILLE! LUCILLE! YOU HAVE TO COME IN HERE. ITS A REAL LIVE TRAIN WRECK YOU GOTTA LISTEN TO!`` Bless him. He died not long after that.
Sounds like a great guy! I'm 62 now and still react like that!
I'm trying to work here. This isn't helping my productivity.
Same. Oh well, there's always tomorrow - work can wait, Led Zep not so much

Infidel. Go listen to your disco.
disco emo, country rap, folk ambient, and so on
Saw them live in MPLS. on the first stop of the Physical Graffiti tour. Wold have been astounding even without a head full of acid.
In the glory days, the Chaudiere saw Louis Armstrong play the Rose Room. Later, bands like Sha-Na-Na, the Staccatos, Octavian and the Five Man Electrical Band played there. The Green Door was the kind of place where when you opened the door, you immediately ducked down, as there was either a bottle or a chair headed your way.
The Chaud was also home of Gerry Barber, the toughest bouncer on the planet. One story about Barber will suffice: A patron was being unruly and Barber asked him to sit down and shutthefuckup, tabernac!. The patron objected and showed his displeasure by breaking a nearly full quart beer bottle over Gerry Barber’s head. Normally, this would knock most humans to their knees.
Barber laughed out loud, in the face of the patron: The 2,000 drunks in the room instantly became very quiet, as we knew what was going to happen next. Barber grabbed the patron by the face and genitals, throwing him in the direction of the door, over a couple of tables. When Barber strode over to where the crumpled patron lay, he was still chuckling to himself. He picked up the patron by the belt, then used the patron’s head to open the door and toss him into the parking lot. The band resumed playing and the rest of us resumed drinking.

I disagree... it's just always evolving. Think of how different this "Rock and roll" song is from "Rockin' Robin" or "Rock around the clock"... almost unrecognizable as the same genre, yet both considered "rock n' roll"... the same is happening today.
Interesting. Who would you say is leading the charge these days?

Sorry Old Shep, I think it is.
When bands like Foo Fighters and Arcade Fire get noted as "great RnR bands", then you know that the well is neither deep or wide.
I'm afraid RnR is following Jazz down the evolutionary path. .

I was just listening to this on headphones and thinking how novel it must have been in 1969 but how silly it seems today

He would be equally at home doing session work for Motown i.e. (besides doing flat out rock JPJ supports the song at all times.) Both he and JP were session players initially.

Actually that would be since October of 1969. Not exactly one of the tunes from that gets a lot of airplay though so if you never owned the album that could explain it.
Red Barron Manfred von Richthofen

Got that right.
But my cruel mind says 'go on, just one more time' and the volume goes up.
The flesh is weak..
kind of amazing isn't it?
and there are a lot of them.............
i bought 3 copies in 1969 and returned 2 of them
i gave up on the 3rd
absolutly the worst pressing of vinyl in history
it was like the grooves were up against each other
just a mash of F'ed up sound
i had to put a nickel on the arm to cut though the mess
I have a feeling this was a curse of the whole Atlantic label. I vaguely remember that every time I pulled a new record out and saw the green and orange semi circles my first thought was "shit, tape it quick before it deteriorates". Same with Vertigo.

Wow how can you remember that! Must have been a defining moment in your life...

Thank you for sharing this memory!
Imagine a super band: LZ and Who! The guitars! The drumming! The vocals! The bass!
The universe would implode on itself.

Back to like a human child does.
I've never been a fan of LZ. I don't like the music or the singing, however I can appreciate them on a certain musical analytical level. Maybe that doesn't make sense. I feel the same about the art of Picasso. I don't really like a lot of it, but I can appreciate the why and how of it. It's why I can't ever say "I hate X music or Y art." I don't hate any of it, but maybe I just don't like it. It's not what moves me.
Spot on! JPJ was and continues to be the most under-rated member of LZ!
Yeah this Paiste Symphonic of Bonzo's is great. Check out Danny Carey's big Paiste Earth gong on Tool's Lateralus too.

Hollywood movies should never be allowed to use the great music of our time. Just cheapens the musical artist.

Still a classic original masterpiece
One of my faves.
I had no idea about the quality of the music therein.
It occurs to me now that this song would have made great
makeout music.
babybabybabybabybabybaby oh yeah
Don't know from cool but this was one of my first forays into music at about the same age. It was driven by the usual teenage curiosity. The Lemon Song, on this same album, also gave me one of my first tastes (errrr...so to speak) in the merits of sexual innuendo. Kind'a sort'a "Hey you can use the English language like THAT?!" Titillation aplenty, eh? Heh! Anyway I spent many an hour on "air guitar" with this one.

It's good with the dah-dum...dah-dum guitar lick, but the drums are all over the place. The symbols are all played by some dude on my right and the snare on the left...makes me queezy...

How can one band have so many ten's?
I know I know It must be in the water...
It did, didn't it? It was a song of the times -- excess, intoxication, flaming cigarette lighters, and craziness in general. I suppose it still is, although we're ... ahem ... a little older and our party habits are a little less excessive. Of course, I only speak for myself.
You know...excellent point. Never gave it much thought but you're right. It would be ironic if LZ were too controlling of its copyrights, given all the times if borrowed and outright ripped off blues singers without attribution or royalty payments.
Sometimes the odd use of a known piece really works, other times not so much. A friend who played chamber music said that the use of Barber's "Adagio for Strings" in "Platoon ruined the piece for her. However, I really liked the way "Forrest Gump" used the frenzied climax of Skynyrd's "Freebird" just as Robin Wright was on the edge of throwing herself off a skyscraper--it gave the piece a scary edge that it hadn't had before.
Reminds me of Eugene and being younger
Eugene who?

An epic auditory journey with headphones.

Hopefully none of the Nuns accidently ventured below or back stage during Bonzo's drum solo...
