"Nobody's Fault" is excellent and it pains me to vote against "Presence," but on Mt. Zeppelin "Over the Hills" breathes rarified air. It combines their rootsy/folksy side with the traditional riff-rock element of their first four albums flawlessly, feeling almost like a bookend to the first half of their career and giving way to the more rhythmically centered second half of it. It also gets points for being the song my fingers go straight to playing every time I pick up an acoustic.

Over Hills was a pivotal track in myZeppelin discovery. My father didn’t own anything after IV so it was a discovery of my own.
I love it when that happens. My dad was into CCR but only had greatest hits volume 1 & 2. When I got their box set it was like a whole new world of CCR I never knew about.

Nobody’s Fault But Mine.
I’ve always thought Over the Hills and Far Away was pretty boring, even as a kid. Growing up this was my brother’s favorite Zeppelin song. So needless to say it got over played a lot around my house. Give me No Quarter or D’yer Mak’er any day.

You get it. Top to bottom, you get it.
