dpat Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 That JPJ is on keyboard for all of the famous songs: Kashmir, Stairway To Heaven, Since I've Been loving You etc. He doesn't play keys on "Whole Lotta Love," "Immigrant Song," "Dazed and Confused," "Black Dog," "Achilles Last Stand," ... just kick-ass bass guitar!

OT, but I love your avatar... I was thinking of taking a screenshot of the hurdy-gurdy segment, but I never did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bustle In My Hedgerow Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 ^ I'm pretty sure he plays the foot pedals and the keyboard in NQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virginia Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Just a few weeks ago I noticed that there's some honky tonk piano at the end of Rock & Roll. How in the world did I miss that all these years?!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evster2012 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Jones was a keyboardist before he was a bassist. You're Time is Gonna Come from the first album and onward. It was always there to a degree. He also orchestrated the strings for Kashmir, which was performed by an orchestra on the album track. The mellotron on the Rain Song. The Crunge, Friends, Thank You, For Your Life, All My Love, Carouselambra, his work on keyboards is evident on every Zeppelin album. And there are many more examples. Every Zeppelin album had keys courtesy of JPJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No disrespect taken my friend, you are correct. The part behind "Nothin I could doooo" in For Your Life is in fact a very compressed guitar. Good ear!!
