Robert Plant said that at the time they wrote it…they thought it was too lightweight to put on an album. The album led to the peak of their career in Led Zeppelin IV. This album marked a change in the band’s musical direction as they started to incorporate more of a folk touch and light and heavy style. They recorded this song around the same time as Led Zeppelin III.

The song would have fit nicely on Led Zeppelin III but they decided to not include it. ![]() There is no building up to a heavy Page solo but it does sound like Zeppelin.

The song is one of the handful of Led Zeppelin covers which Robert Plant sang on his live shows in USA and Europe with Alison Krauss during April and May 2008, and it was usually greeted with a very enthusiastic audience response. The song was never performed live by Led Zeppelin, however a live version of the song was performed and recorded by Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes during their 2000 tour, and is featured on the album Live at the Greek.
