i love this song. they should have left D'Yer Mak'er off of Houses when they recorded this. I don't understand why people say this song is weak. it fucking rocks.
This destroys 99% of what the best rock bands can produce these days and yet it was a outtake for the mighty Led Zeppelin. Talk about immense power to spare...Zep had it.
(Continued). Best bet is that he laid down the vocals in 78 or even 79 for the abandoned Knebworth EP, but I actually think he may have recorded the vocals after Bonham died specifically for the Coda release. That would explain the evasion in the credits, and also the incredible amount of pain in Rob's voice here. Check my channel for some good raw blues btw...
This is a wicked track, especially after it gets momentum going, and Bonham is absolutely brutal. But I always thought that the date given for this recording on the Coda notes was only partially correct, at best. They say it was recorded in 1972, and I can believe that with the music, but not with Rob's vocals. First, his tone is later era all the way, and more important, there's a ton of pain in his voice (and lyrics), which fits the later era as well.
@mielazul you're right,it's a known fact that mixing and Robert's part was done later,sound and voice is same as in "In Through The Out Door" album. But anyway it is an awesome track. No one in 80s,90s and 21st century could make this kind of sound,rampaging Bonzo,savage riffs by Page,driving bass by JPJ and anguish vocal by Plant. It's too bad they had to split,but as in the song, "It doesn't matter now" cause until 1980,they already built up what all the pop/rock followers cannot achieve.
I remember when Coda came out , we bought it the second Sams opened, ran home put it on and it sounded pretty good until Walters Walk came on then soon the windows were rattling.
I think this is one of their really great hidden gems - relentless, intense, kind of scary. They always credit it to 1972 sessions, and that may be true for the music, but I think Plant must have done the vocals much later. Apart from the vocal tone, there's a lot of pain in there, especially as it goes along...and that seems to fit into the late stage of his life with Zep. I don't know for sure though. By the way, check my channel for some raw dark blues by Rosetta West. Hope you like it.
IN my CODA cd, it tells when each song was recorded. This on in perticular was recorded in July of 1972, which means it most likly to have been a setup song for the album, Houses of the Holy.
Led Zeppelin is my all time favorite band but they are more than just rock there is so much and ive watch interviews with JPJ about this album and said that the recording took place when punk was big so if led zeppelin had a bit of punk influence to their last album then so be it. it just makes me love them more

Plant must have laid down the vocals between 79-80 by the sound of it.
I dont think he did it after that because he was trying to distance himself from Zep at the point his solo career began.
