That is one of my favorite songs. Page and Plant played it when I saw them.

You're welcome. That has to be their "finest" song. It shows their talent, writing and playing, in a more subdued gentle acoustic way

So much great music never made it to CD. I have many LPs that were never on CD. I only remember Black Oak Arkansas and Fanny from this era. Very few times have I heard their music on the radio past this era.

This era is when American music rose to the top.

Funny, I was just thinking of that song the other day. They played the original by Marvin Gaye on the radio.

Thanks, Pritch. Maybe you found it posted by someone else. I only glanced through while editing. I wanted that particular one for being a live studio cut.
Motown was still happening and it tried to change with the time. Kinda worked but nothing like what it was at the beginning of the era
Ok, just a touch early being '66. I mainly didn't want to go into '73 because by then the record industry had taken hold and also many groups had split into solos, other groups, and generally seemed to be flowing rather than leading the 'edge'. Not that great music doesn't still live on to this day. But I just wanted to take a great Temptations song from early and one from later
'66
'69
'72
