@VladDImpala: I'm 26, listened exclusively to Zep from grade 7 to 12, was awestruck by the vast majority of page's guitarwork (especially his acoustic stuff, ie III), and have just within the past few years gotten into the 60's acoustic folk revival in the UK...can't remember the last time I popped a Zep CD in the player...graham, jansch, renbourn, drake, wizz jones, martyn are so much more authentic...also check out paul curreri (contemporary american folk artisit)

Listen to Led Zeppelin's (Jimmy Page) Black mountain side.

Do you think all the kiddies will freak if we tell them that rob zombies lyric "more human than human" is actually a line from blade runner??And thats what inspired that song?? same dif.

being a huge fan from the 70's , Page/Plant openly admitted that they'd take riffs,lyrics,etc.from other music they even named artists,mostly Robert Johnson.This the spirit of any art. Look back in old interviews.What a better way to influence the generations than to teach them of generations in the past.many Kudos to this great performer and this great song.Most people wouldnt give a hoot about music like this if it weren't for other musicians bringing it to their attention.

After hearing this I felt ashamed for being a Jimmy Page fan. But then again Jimmy Page introduced me to Bert's music. So Jimmy pay the royalties to Bert and I'll give you kudos for introducing me to Bert's music.

On evening, I put Bert's 'Jack Orion' LP on for a few friends who were visiting, one was a young guitarist. He immediately said, "Oh, I know that...it's Jimmy Page's old song..." Needless to say, I had to educate some people about Bert and the origins of "Black Water Side" AKA "Black Mountain Side" lol

WHERE did Bert play in Brooklyn, at St. Ann's while they were still presenting concerts at the old church venue? I would have loved to have been there. I've seen Richard Thompson several times at the church before they moved the concerts to a new building.

This composition is so haunting, so moving, it carries the day all by itself as long as the performer gets it right. I am most impressed by the composition itself here although Jansch has soul, no doubt about it.
