Dazed and confused


Zeppelin Led

Recommended Posts

somewhere on this forum are pictures of the court papers where Jake Holmes filed a lawsuit against Jimmy in 2010. The Yardbirds played a show with Jake in NYC when Jimmy was with the band and heard the song. You can find Dazed and Confused on "The Above Ground Sound of Jake Holmes" released June 67. Also, the "high pitch" guitar in the studio version is a pedal steel guitar that Jimmy is using.

Another interesting fact is that Jake Holmes is one of the top Jingle writers around. He wrote the US army's "be all you can be" jingle in 79 among countless others. He is also a well known producer.

Never knew that. R.E.M. used it to great effect during the opening to "Orange Crush" during the Green World Tour back in '89.
