comment
Gratuitous Panning: "Whole Lotta Love" keeps the driving riff on the left channel, and furiously twiddles during the middle freakout and was made specifically to be appreciated with headphones. The coda of "What Is and What Should Never Be" has the guitar bouncing between the left and right channels. "The Lemon Song" keeps the guitars mostly on the left, "Thank You" does the same but on the right channel, and "Bring It On Home" alternates.

"Heartbreaker" ends abruptly mid-word before the next song, "Living Loving Maid"—and as these two songs are often air-played together on classic-rock stations, it has this effect.

Shout-Out
 Led Zeppelin II (Music) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The album cover was based on a World War I photograph of the Jagdstaffel 11 Division of the German Air Force with faces of the four band members air brushed in. In 1962, Muddy Waters recorded "You Need Love", written for him by peer Willie Dixon. In 1966 The Small Faces recorded the song as "You Need Loving". Some of the lyrics of "Whole Lotta Love" version were copied from the Willie Dixon song, a favourite of Plant's. Plant's phrasing is particularly similar to that of Steve Marriott's in the Small Faces' version. Similarities with "You Need Love" would lead to a lawsuit against Led Zeppelin in 1985, settled out of court in favour of Dixon. The Small Faces were never sued by Dixon, even though "You Need Loving" still only credits Ronnie Lane and Steve Marriott. "Moby Dick" is a shout-out to Moby-Dick. "The Lemon Song" was inspired by Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor", Albert King's "The Hunter", and Robert Johnson's "Travelling Riverside Blues", which shares a similar line about lemon juice dripping down legs. "Ramble On" was inspired by The Lord of the Rings. The opening lines to "Thank You" about the sun refusing to shine and the mountains crumbling to the sea might have been inspired by the opening lines to The Jimi Hendrix Experience's "If 6 Was 9", which has the same apocalyptic imagery.

Incredibly Lame Pun: The album cover, designer David Juniper, asked to just come up with something "interesting", took a photo of Manfred 'The Red Baron' von Richthofen and his Flying Circus from World War I, filtered it and airbrushed the band members' heads onto the bodies. All good. He then put in manager Peter Grant and tour manager Richard Cole's heads. So far so good. But then, you notice there's a woman on the cover too, namely actress Glynis Johns. You may ask what she has to do with Led Zeppelin? The answer is: bugger all. She was just thrown on there because she has a similar name to Glyn Johns, who engineered the band's first album. One wonders why Juniper even bothered since Glyn's brother Andy replaced him as engineer for II.
