The title was orignally called "sloppy drunk",the title was because they used Ian Stuart Rolling Stones keyboard player,hence "boogie with Stu".God bless.....Steve
why DID they change the title of the song? They didn't change the lyrics or anything to warrant a title change. And yes the song is great because Ritchie Valens was awesome and created something pretty amazing! Valens' original is better, though.
@jitkasuarez Oh Sorry I got two Zep facts mixed up. It was a jam recorded in 1971 at Headley Grange, where the band had done most of the recording for their fourth album. They used the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio and were joined by Rolling Stones' road manager and pianist, Ian Stewart, who ended up jamming with the band on piano. Page said the song would not have emerged had it not been for the particularly informal 'live-in' environment at Headley Grange where it was recorded:
@5uspended4nimation LOL but Plant absolutely hated Ros Stewart. I;ll have to dig up the story about THAT Stewart another time. Sorry I was drinking LOL

@jitkasuarez Rod Stuart's nickname was Stu. Plant and him were bitter enemies. The title was a dig at him. Page said so.
