  • Song 180: “Dazed and Confused” by Led Zeppelin, Part One, The Song Remains the Same
    Aug 24 2025

    For those who haven’t heard the announcement I posted, songs from this point on will sometimes be split among multiple episodes, so this is the first part of a two-episode look at the song “Dazed and Confused” by Led Zeppelin, although this episode doesn’t get as far as Led Zeppelin’s formation, and is mostly about the intertwining session careers of John Paul Jones and (especially) Jimmy Page. Click the full post to read liner notes, links to more information, and a transcript of the episode.

    Patreon backers also have a thirty-five minute bonus episode available, on “Boom-Bang-a-Bang” by Lulu.

    Tilt Araiza has assisted invaluably by editing, and will hopefully be doing so from now on. Check out Tilt’s irregular podcasts at http://www.podnose.com/jaffa-cakes-for-proust and http://sitcomclub.com/

His knowledge and research is incredible. Everytime I catch-up from oldest to newest episodes I just start over again, it's just that interesting! Also, his monotone-ish voice is rather soothing and his clear passion for the subject is one to behold. Long live Andrew Hickey!

Thorough and fascinating...
