message: I added hard rock as a genre, and it was reverted. I fail to see how that version isn't hard rock. Let's take a look at how the hard rock article defines the genre, and let me analyse it:
:[...] loud, aggressive rock music.
Yes.
:The electric guitar is often emphasised, used with distortion and other effects, both as a rhythm instrument using repetitive riffs with a varying degree of their complexity, and as a solo lead instrument.
A somewhat heavy, electric guitar is used at the same time as an acoustic guitar. There is a riff (although hardly a complex one), and it is however not used as lead instrument, and it isn't very much emphasised (notwithstanding that it doesn't have to be, as implied by the usage of "often").
:Drumming characteristically focuses on driving rhythms, strong bass drum and a backbeat on snare, sometimes using cymbals for emphasis.
Yes.
:The bass guitar works in conjunction with the drums, occasionally playing riffs, but usually providing a backing for the rhythm and lead guitars.
Yes. The bassline backs up the guitar riff.
:Vocals are often growling, raspy, or involve screaming or wailing, sometimes in a high range, or even falsetto voice
The vocals are somewhat raspy/loud at times (although it should be noted that this is only optional, implied by the usage of "often"), and lie in a high register, although this becomes more apparent towards the end.
Please note that I'm not referring to the whole song. When listening to the whole song, it is nothing but clear that it switches between a soft, acoustic nature and a harder, aggressive one. The first time it switches is at roughly 2:25, and if that's not hard rock (or even some kind of proto-heavy metal), I don't know what it is. – SmiddleTC@ 15:21, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I wasn't attempting to make it a fact by using Wikipedia as my source; I was attempting to create some consensus by bringing it up. There's nothing that say that it isn't hard rock. – SmiddleTC@ 09:14, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd second 'hard rock' as being a valid genre for (part of) the song. However, I also strongly support the continued inclusion of blues rock and folk rock as well.--L1A1 FAL (talk) 14:40, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: This Rolling Stone review from 1969 refers to Zeppelin as a blues band, and alludes to their folk roots, I think that's sufficient. I don't like the idea of using revisionist genres in articles about bands that existed so long ago. Radiopathy •talk•   17:42, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Nevertheless, there is a multitude of articles on Led Zeppelin songs dubbed hard rock, here on Wikipedia. Furthermore, the only reason that they aren't described as hard rock is the fact that 'hard rock' wasn't an established term back then. – SmiddleTC@ 10:34, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Exactly my point. Radiopathy •talk•   16:12, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't really see what you mean. From today's point of view, the term is indubitably fitting. Does some official source have to state the genre in order to have it written here? – SmiddleTC@ 19:45, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

message: @Binksternet: Hey there. I saw that you removed the Barrett interview, citing discogs. However, discogs is not used, actually. When you go to this link, you'll see that I eliminated "discogs" from Google search results. The URL must have been detected somehow. Can the info and the interview that you removed be reinserted? Thanks. --George Ho (talk) 07:39, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
