In some shows, Page sings harmony vocals with Plant instead of Bonham (Seattle in 1977, for example). At one Californian show (6/27/77 LA Forum), "Dancing Days" was also featured in the acoustic medley. On the band's 1977 North American tour, the song "Black Country Woman" was merged into a medley with "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp". This can be seen in the footage from the Earls Court concerts in May 1975, featured on the Led Zeppelin DVD. When the band performed the song live at Led Zeppelin concerts, John Paul Jones played an upright bass and Bonham sang harmony vocals with Plant (always stopping in the middle of the third verse). This song regularly appeared in Led Zeppelin's acoustic set from the second UK tour in 1971 to the 1972 North American Tour. The lyrics also make reference to the song "Old Shep": When you're old and your eyes are dim / There ain't no "Old Shep" gonna happen again. However, there are no explicit references to Tolkien works in "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp". References to the work of Tolkien exist in some other Led Zeppelin songs, such as "Ramble On", "The Battle of Evermore", and "Misty Mountain Hop". Plant reportedly named his dog after Aragorn (often called Strider) from J. In "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp", a country music-inflected hoedown, singer Robert Plant waxes lyrically about walking in the woods with his blue-eyed Merle dog named Strider.
When the song appeared on the 2003 DVD, it was spelled correctly both on the back cover of the set and the DVD's menu, although without the hyphens ("Bron Yr Aur Stomp"), and on the live album How the West Was Won it was spelled "Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp".
This error can be contrasted to another Led Zeppelin track, "Bron-Yr-Aur," a two-minute instrumental featured on their later album Physical Graffiti, which was spelled correctly. The song's title was misspelled on the album cover during initial printing it should read "Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp". The cottage had no electricity or running water, but the change of scenery provided inspiration for many of the songs on the album, including "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp". Bron-Yr-Aur means "golden breast" or "breast of gold" in Welsh, as in a hillside of gold. The song is named after Bron-Yr-Aur, a house in Gwynedd, Wales, where the members of Led Zeppelin retreated in 1970 to write much of Led Zeppelin III after having completed a grueling concert tour of the United States. Jennings Farm is the name of the property in which the Plant family stayed in the early 1970s. Led Zeppelin also recorded the song as an electric instrumental, "Jennings Farm Blues", which later surfaced as a studio out-take on a number of Led Zeppelin bootleg recordings. Jimmy Page's 1971 Martin D-28 guitar, in this song, is tuned to open G. Bassist John Paul Jones played an acoustic five-string fretless bass. It was finished off at Island, London and Ardent Studios, Memphis, Tennessee.ĭrummer John Bonham played spoons and castanets on the recording. It was later recorded at Headley Grange in 1970, using a mobile studio belonging to the Rolling Stones. John Paul Jones also received a writing credit for the song. Jimmy Page and Robert Plant constructed the song in 1970 at Bron-Yr-Aur, a small cottage in Wales where they stayed after completing a gruelling concert tour of the United States.
