| This was inspired by American Blues singer Blind Willie Johnson, who played in the 1920's. |
| Jimmy Page overdubbed his guitar intro 3 times. He played one guitar an octave higher than the others. |
| Robert Plant was recovering from a car accident and had to record his tracks from a wheelchair. |
| When this album was released, everyone thought this song was about a couple different things. Some thought it was about Jimmy Page's blossoming heroin addiction. Others thought it was comparable to Robert Johnson's "Hellhound On My Trail," in that it was Plant lamenting Zeppelin's supposed deal with the devil. (thanks, John - Boca Raton, FL) |
| During the live version of this at Knebworth, Plant repeatedly screamed, "Oh Jimmy!" right before Page went into his solo. This was something Plant commonly did at live shows. (thanks, Adrian - Wilmington, DE) |
