Whole Lotta Love è una delle più belle e famose canzoni dei Led Zeppelin, contenuta nell’album Led Zeppelin II del 1969. Un Riff da paura.
La ascoltiamo nella cover che Santana ha recentemente inserito nel suo Guitar Heaven: The Greatest Guitar Classics Of All Time. L’originale stesso dei Led Zeppelin era una rielaborazione di You Need Love, brano del 1962 del bluesman Willie Dixon.
Il testo di Whole Lotta Love dei Led Zeppelin
You need coolin’, baby, I’m not foolin’
