Song of the Day (Dec. 28): When The Levee Breaks

Here’s a very fitting Led Zeppelin tune for all of us on the east coast getting hammered by rain.

Fun fact about this song, John Bonham’s drumming was recorded in a 3 story stairwell and the microphones were hung from the top, thus the heavy, echoing, unique drumming in this song.
