I think it is Sweet Home Alabama. Of course geography may have an impact here.

That's high up on the list as well, along with "Freebird".

Do that with several cuts from their first two albums and you hear, "We rip off Willie Dixon. We rip off Willie Dixon."

Try it with their last two albums and you hear Plant lament, "What happened to my voice? What happened to my voice?"

I suppose Professor's point, if you want to call it that, is that we unwittingly open ourselves to baleful influences when we listen to songs like "Stairway" without the benefit of good old Christian discernment. As usual, Professor misses the mark; he focuses on the wrong kind of Zep song. Far more guys of a certain age were 'influenced' by "Whole Lotta Love" or "The Lemon Song" than were bothered to ever think about Plant's dafter lyrics. And these influences were (a) decidedly not baleful, and (b) don't require to likes of Professor to figure out. When your lemon's being squeezed, the stupid fucking May Queen and the Holy Ghost aren't of paramount concern. However, there are certain gifts of the spirit: People are known to break out in tongues.

"We have enough trouble making these records sound right forward."

This is from an enchanting tune, and one of the most popular songs ever played.
Every witch and every warlock knows what it means.
Do you?

Of course I know what the lyrics mean.
This is the song Kichi and I play when we sacrifice Christian missionaries to the Wicker Man.
