Led Zeppelin - The Rover - Solo @ r1

This article is part 46 of 52 in the 2022 music project series.

The Rover is one of my favorite Led Zeppelin songs. I think the verse riff is incredibly unique with the all the bends, yet it still retains some melody. The solo isn't particularly interesting, but it sounds cool and was kind of fun to learn. Strangely, it's 11 bars long.
