number nine over the hills and far away
hey
you got the nerve vine
fixing folk rock and hard rock this
track from houses of the Holy
had page playing acoustic and electric
guitar alongside Robert Plant’s
characteristic vocals
but what really makes over the hills and
far away stand out is how well John
Bonham’s drums and John Paul Jones bass
work together though it only charted
within the Billboard Hot 100’s top 60
the single allowed the members to play
with its lyrics and musical parts during
live performances
number eight dazed and confused dazed

mandolin page on acoustic guitar and
plant singing his heart out
the song also showcases the band’s
softer side and incredible range
the way to stay
number six ramble on I was on my way it
may have been co-written by page and
plant but ramble on is also a fine
example of Jones and Bonhams musical
chemistry with lyrics inspired by the
Lord of the Rings ramble on is a four
and a half minute number that fittingly
mixes folk rock with hard rock my
medical something
but it also proves that Paige wasn’t
only a talented guitarist but a talented
producer as well

long this Physical Graffiti tracks found
radio airplay and much critical praise
inspired by Eastern music Led Zeppelin’s
