I just remember how “Tangerine” sounded while watching these die hard Zep fans crooning along to Robert Plant’s words while honoring their “Tangerine” song, they all, truly loved. Many casual fans like “Stairway” but Page purists, like the ones I encountered on that summer night, prefer “Tangerine” as they favorite Zeppelin acoustic torch song. Everybody asks what the hell is going on.” I don’t think, twenty years later, Jimmy Page would have realized, how much one little false start meant so much to this legion of devoted “Tangerine” aficionados. I was trying to keep the tempo down a bit. It was a tempo guide, and it seemed like a good idea to leave it in – at the time. Jimmy Page once commented on “Tangerine’s” opening faux pas when he said, “ That’s commonly known as a false start. “ Did you hear that?” Roland asking me and answering questions only an annoying drunk guy could do “ Hey bro, you like Zeppelin? Of course you do.” Every one, gathered around us I remember the way he lifted up his can of beer, “ let’s toast to Tangerine” was all he said as all of twenty of us outside on the driveway tried conjuring up the Sun Gods as we raised our cups, bottled, cans holding up a toasted tribute honoring their favorite “Tangerine” song to stars.
“ Right there,” the guy on the car, called out, stopping all conversations, while he said holding the can of MGD pointing out, “ that little mistake is the best thing I ever heard.” It’s that perfectly placed false start at the beginning of Led Zeppelin’s “Tangerine,” that Roland the host of his party referenced.

The song was first recorded with 🎙 The Yardbirds as 🎵 “Knowing That I’m Losing You”. Page penned this gem himself, though there are some questions surrounding the lyrics. The rhythmic nature of the pedal steel is quite a vibe. The unique sound is owed to the use of pedal steel guitar by 🎙 Jimmy Page which adds this folksy flavoring.
Moving onto the sound of the record, it is unique from the jump. “Tangerine” was supposedly inspired by Page’s girlfriend at the time, Jackie DeShannon (“Does she still remember times like these?”). “Tangerine” isn’t sexual like “The Lemon Song,” however, hehe! Notably, “Tangerine” follows another fruity classic, 🎵 “The Lemon Song”.
