This was first released as the second track from the English band’s fourth album in 1971. “Rock and Roll” stands as one of the band’s best-known songs.
Guitarist Jimmy Page mentioned that it came to be from a spontaneous jam session.
It is one of the few Led Zeppelin songs where all four members share the composer credit.
The lyrics were written by vocalist Robert Plant, referencing a number of 1950s and 1960s early rock hits, including “The Stroll,” “The Book of Love,” and “Walking In the Moonlight.”
