Being a huge Zep fan I was dismayed when I heard Page was working with Coverdale (or as Plant put it,..Coverversion) I listened to the album and had mixed feelings, but overall remember it as pretty good.
Funny too, I saw Page and Plant in Toronto's Skydome in '96 and they did Shake My Tree. Page pulled it off but Plant was having a bit of a time with the high notes. That song should have been on Zep II, since I think Page refered to it as one that never got off the ground in the early days.
But yeah, Take Me For A Little While is a great tune and is classic Page. One other song by Page that some of you should check out is Hummingbird on Pages Outrider record. Excellent earthy blues.
Thanks for the memory jog K-Wise.
