Funny, I hadn't listend to Zepp for a while either, but right after I saw this thread I had an urge to hear that song. I think I went through all five versions of it I have on my iPod (original; 2007 Song Remains the Same remix; bootleg from their last real concert - Berlin Eissporthalle 7.7.1980, post Bonzo reunions don't count; live "How the West was Won"; Page/Plant "No Quarter"/UnLEDded CD)

I'd understand if they only put like half-an-hour of music on it. But ALS and T41 are both very long with many twists and turns (and my 3d favorite Zepp guitar work after Since I've Been Lovin' You and Bring It On Home), so there's plenty of actual music. Then again, you don't like long songs, so fair enough.

I loved that kind of stuff about Zepp. By that standard, you must've hated "Houses of the Holy," too!
(Note what album the eponymous song appears on.)
