The
Birthday of Jimmy Page
/ Led Zeppelin's Kashmir
The
song Kashmir was performed
at every Led Zeppelin
concert from its introduction
in 1975
The
dark romantic inspirations
of the songwriting
team of Jimmy Page
and Robert Plant
came mostly from
Norse mythology,
Tolkienesque fantasy
or morbid tales
as in the song Gallows
Pole.
Kashmir is exceptional
in the Led Zeppelin
discography for
its middle eastern
styled melodic line
(originally from
a tuning pattern
Page used) and for
the dominant use
of musicians on
strings and horns.
Robert Plant wrote
the lyrics while
motoring across
the Sahara desert.
