In honor of his birthday, we look at five of the best Zeppelin songs co-written by Jones.
5. “Trampled Under Foot”
One of the best grooves Zeppelin ever produced.
4. “Black Dog”
What a great track to kick off Led Zeppelin IV!
3. “Rock and Roll”
Some songs build up to the chorus, and some blast off one the first note. “Rock and Roll” is the latter.
2. “Good Times Bad Times”
Zeppelin sure did know how to kick off an album, didn’t they?
1. “Whole Lotta Love”
C’mon…could any other song be number one?
