@12347771 : Huh? WTF are you talking about?? It may have been an awkward instrument, but there hasn't been a digital version yet that comes close to the thick,rich, beautiful overtones & analog sound of the mellotron or a Rhodes for that matter -- quality died at the start of the digital age

the best of the best, bar none

@janmadytay true for Jimmy and John. But at that time Robert only drank. Which you can see he still is into drinking now

There's a B side somewhere in my old collection where the organ part is replaced with actual violinists , such a warmth

If Page did nothing else, this song would still make him my favorite guitarist.

@Tengent : Digital has never fully duplicated the depth of analog, at least I haven't seen it happen yet. In some areas/venues digital can trick you into sounding very close to an original analog sound, but overall it lacks depth, thick & rich analog tone as well as the natural compression analog gives off. Not saying it may never happen, just hasn't yet.

@hazor777 Well put.

5:06 that scream is EPIC! The best of all! He's god... No wait, he's even better:D

This may not be their best performance, but it's still my favorite because it's the one I see the most passion from. To me, that's what really matters. Plant's scream is just...unreal...
