I mean, why wouldn't that squeak be there? Song wouldn't be the same without it ... just as When The Levee Breaks wouldn't be the same w/o the echoing staircase at Headley ... it's part of the freakin' mystique.

She heard it and went to the window barking.

Still wouldn’t change a single thing about any Zeppelin track.

Except maybe the guitar solo in Heartbreaker.

Change ... the Heartbreaker solo?

You're f***ing with us, right?

If I could change things in the Zep catalog, I would:
1) Replace "Hats Off To (Roy) Harper" with "Hey Hey What Can I Do" on Zeppelin III, and make Hats Off a B-side instead,
2) Half the run time of Carouselambra if needed to get Wearing and Tearing (in a better produced version than the one that's on Coda) somewhere on In Through the Out Door.

And that's about it ... though I also think Travellin' Riverside Blues should've made it onto LZ or LZ II somewhere. And I don't really care for Tea For One on Presence in general ... and Sick Again as the last song on Physical Graffiti is pretty awful as a closer for arguably the best record of all time ...

Hear me out, it’s nearly a perfect solo but it’s not perfectly imperfect. To my ears. I will bet Jimmy himself has wished at some point that he could take one more run at it.

Carouselambra does tend to ramble, I’ll grant you that. Not so concerned about what made it on which record, just glad it ever got recorded.

Surely your fucking with us! If not, you just made my permanent shitlist! Put this fucker on ignore!

Nah man it's cool. Music is open to the interpretation of the listener. We're cool....barely! But you so wrong baby!
