This isnt the Led Zeppelin version…its the original one that legendary blues man Robert Johnson wrote way back when. And yes I first heard this on the CODA album from Led Zeppelin. You can see clearly how this inspired many great rock artists. So sit back and enjoy the music.

  2. Myles Kennedy (of the band Alter Bridge) does a wicked great cover of this song!

  5. zeppelin’s version is a cover, but there’s a lot of originality to it. some aspects of their version don’t resemble this song.

  6. zepplin did it because, like all great rock bands, they understand that without the blues there’d be no rock-n-roll

  7. Is there not a chance that Zeppelin just covered this because it was a good song? Not just because it has the lemon song lyric?

  8. FAKE!! Copied from led zeppelin! What a fag! He sucks! Just kidding, I’m not an ignorant douche.

  14. Is it just me or does Jay Z kinda favor Robert in the photo with the cigarette?

  15. dont be stupid.. led zeppelin’s song was kind of a "tribute" to him

  16. Do People Fighting Know That This Song was Written Long Before Zeppelin Ever Existed in Life as Humans! i Doubt Any Zep Member Was Alive in 36!!! All Racist Buttholes Just DIE You Make The World A Dumber Place & All You Do is Create More Stupid Ignorant People
