Houses of the Holy. Side 2, Track 3. No Quarter.
Studio version. Eerie electric piano from John Paul Jones provides the base for this song, one of my favourites. Robert Plant's lyrics again show his fascination with all things Celtic - a tale of messengers toiling through the snow amidst untold dangers to deliver their message of hope.
Live version. This was always John Paul Jones' showcase track. This version is from Dallas, 1975 and features a very long piano solo from Jones - his classical training really shows through on this.
