The best-selling live Led Zeppelin DVD and CD releases have energized The Levee, and we're ready to put on some fantastic shows.  We've learned a lot of great new songs, and we hope you can join us soon to hear the results of all the fun we've been having.  

Keep an eye on our site as we announce new developments and additional live appearances in 2003 and into 2004.

Thanks for visiting!

Rock and Roll                

An encore in 1971 and then a standard show opener from late 1972 until 1975, "Rock and Roll" originally appeared on the fourth album.  The song spontaneously created itself in the middle of a frustrating session working on "Four Sticks".  John Bonham impatiently played the first few bars of Little Richard's "Keep a-Knockin'", and Page improvised a guitar part on the spot.  In three or four takes, a Zeppelin standard was born which was played frequently throughout the balance of the band's stage career.  "Rock and Roll" was combined with "Whole Lotta Love" as an encore in 1977, and in 1979 and 1980 it was again played by itself.  Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant has often named the track as one of his favorites.  Perhaps as a result it has been performed at the several reunions of the surviving members of Led Zeppelin, and was played often as a final encore on the Page and Plant tours of 1995 and 1998.
