Rock Survey - Four Sticks (Led Zeppelin)

Artist: Led Zeppelin

Song:  Four Sticks


Video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyZc2Xqav_4

Quick Thoughts:  The first of many songs to come on this rock survey.  Released in 1971, the band is only known to have played this song live once, at Copenhagen on their 1971 European tour.  The title came from the fact that drummer John Bonham played with two sets of two drumsticks.

Ranking from Original "Top 1000" List:  975
Added to my Personal List?  YES
Total Songs Added to Final List15

For upcoming concerts:  No reunion concerts scheduled at this time.


Having grown up listening to mostly hip-hop, R&B, some alternative, and all sorts of music in Spanish, I decided it was time to give myself a personal survey of Rock music.  My friend BJ Swanner compiled a "Top 1000 Rock Song List", aggregated from several "Top Lists".  As I go through all 1,000 songs, I'll be creating my own list, sharing a brief post like this for all the songs that will make my final list.   I will not be ranking the songs that make it to my final list.....for now.
