The two guitar solos are among the best I've ever heard. Page's tone and phrasing on the solos are fabulous. That was one of my favorite harp solos as well. The riffs, the lyrics. One of my favorite Zep songs. Old Style Blues | Reviewer: Scott Berger | 9/17/09 The first known recording of this song is by in the late 1920s. Of course it was originally an African-American church spiritual of unknown date that was modified to make it secular. Why did Plant and Page take out the reference to the Devil in their acoustic album "No Quarter". It reminds me of the Rolling Stones song "I Just Want To See His Face"-not in the sense of harmony and form but the oldness of the song itself being reinterpreted by Englishmen. It is amazing how that (my) English generation was able to reinterpret the blues into supersonic energy. No one was better than Jimmi Hendrix, in my opinion, who backed up so many of the artists that the English kids listed to as rock and roll was being created. He took it to a whole new level. The two best white blues men, in my opinion, are Eric Clapton and Johnny Winter. Oh well, enough of this jollification. Finally! | Reviewer: Daryl | 8/18/09 Thank you for providing these lyrics. I've always loved the Presence album, but was completely baffled by the lyrics. Nice to know what Robert was singing about, and that it was an old blues tune. Nobody's Fault but Mine. | Reviewer: jimmy | 1/24/09 the song is Zeppelin's take on the version that was recorded in the late 20's by Blind Willie Johnson, i was told once by a Blues fanatic that it was about Blind Willie Johnson's fear of God because he couldn't read his Bible, being blind, so he assumed it was his fault and he had done something to grant the wrath of God, don't know how true that is. Definitely the Zep | Reviewer: The Scoob | 10/3/08 My roomate in college and I used to fight over who this song was by. I knew it was by Led Zep but he SWORE it was a Billy Squire song. Granted, Squire was HEAVILY influenced by Zep but still...I never could convince him. He died 13 years ago, never knowing the truth. :( Is it about mj? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/14/08 When the song first came out there were speculations that the lyrics where about Page's heroine addiction. The way I read it the song is about marijuana addiction. Devil told me to roll - could be about rolling a joint, especially since it's sometimes called a log. Brother showed me the gong - it's a stretch but it could be an intentionally obscured reference to "bong". Obscured to avoid hassles with UK decency laws? Monkey on my back - could be about addiction. But if I'm wrong - well it's nobody's fault by mine... Greatest Gospel Song | Reviewer: Clint Byars | 8/31/07 In a dark time, this song taught me that God was not causing the pain in my life. The prophet Robert Plant probably had no idea that these lyrics would lead me to the real Jesus, not the religious one the church preaches but the one who loves us. Plant | Reviewer: Duane | 6/11/07 I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO KNOW ,WHO PLAYED THE HARMONICA ON "NOBODY'S FAULT BUT MINE"?UNBELIEAVEABLE Robert plant of course Great zeppelin song! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/15/07 Dude to me it sounds like plant says "no f-ing bodies fault but mine" in half of the verses.
