Led Zeppelin - The Rain Song
Happy sixty-fifth birthday to Jimmy Page, a grand seventies rock star and also a good musician, two conditions which did not always coincide. He gets so much attention for his loud music, so how about a quiet one instead, a long meditative study in an open tuning. This song is also a good example of how John Paul Jones's keyboard parts (including "string" parts played on the mellotron) were Led Zeppelin's secret ingredient.
