The publication reported that while speaking to UnCut, Jimmy Page revealed what led to the making of "Rock and Roll" during the band's famous Headley Grange getaway. He explained that the song came about after drummer John Bonham performed some of Little Richard's 1956 song "Keep a Knockin'."
Jimmy Page Shared Some Insight Into the Making of 'Led Zeppelin IV' in a 2014 Interview
Page made similar comments about the making of Led Zeppelin IV in a 2014 interview with Classic Rock Magazine. According to the 82-year-old guitarist, the songs "Rock and Roll" and "The Battle Of Evermore" "came out more or less out of thin air."
He also shared that the band "we were routining 'Stairway to Heaven'" before the lyrics were complete. Page said, however, that once Robert Plant finished the lyrics, the band knew the song was something special.
"While we were going through it, and everyone was learning it, Robert was writing the lyrics in the same room. He was sitting down there writing in his pad. And then he eventually came to the microphone, started singing, and it was like, 'Wow, this is really, we're really on to something here 'cause his lyrics were superb on it,'" said Page in the 2014 interview.
