Just learned this song and I had to rave about it... :)

Just started to get in to Led Zep... ( i know i know...I'm a little late, spare me :wink: )

The first time I heard their song, The Rain Song, was blown away....it's on the House of the Holy album. Just looked at the tabs today on olga.net at noonish and with a couple listens and sessions..I'm playing this sucker by 8:00 tonight. Good stuff...

I love to play DMB shit because it's fun to play, even if you aren't singing. And this song definately has this feel to it, as I'm sure much of Zep's shit does...good stuff indeed, go out and learn it!

Any other thoughts on this?[/b]
