Lockdown Lick 206

Lockdown Lick

Lockdown Licks no. 206. “Whole Lotta Love” by Led Zeppelin. Signature riff played through twice on an HB35+ on neck humbucker into a NUX M8 amp set to ‘superlead’ with a touch of reverb. As a slight twist, I let the natural harmonic mark the gaps between the power chords to fill it out. Original played by Jimmy Page.

“Whole Lotta Love” is a song by English rock band Led Zeppelin. It is the opening track on the band’s second album, Led Zeppelin II, and was released as a single in 1969 in several countries. As with other Led Zeppelin songs, no single was released in the United Kingdom. In the United States, it became their first hit and was certified gold.
