I loved the driving beat, the subdued viola(?), and Robert Plant's voice...he's still got it.
Just like when he sang for Led Zeppelin, his voice grabs you and carries you away.
It's just a bit more subdued and mellow now.

completely.
And yes, that's a viola Alison is playing.

than most of the old rock stars. Sounds better every time I hear it over the years.
