Whatever he is doing there: it is buried in the mix.īecause of that: I always teach my students a strum pattern for the bridge, so they can play rhythm there (instead of having to stop playing till the verse comes in again) However: It sounds like Jimmy is playing rhythmic single-note stuff rather than strumming chords. (notice that it is only the first 3 chords, C, Dm and Em, that are different between my way and Jimmy’s way of playing it.Īs mentioned before: There is guitar in the bridge. This is how I usually play it, and also how I teach it. You can also play those triads on the top 3 strings. Supposedly this is how Jimmy plays the verse. Jimmy Page plays triads for the most part. You can of course also just double the piano/marimba part in that song section on guitar. Not to have to stop playing there, I always teach my students a rhythm guitar part for the bridge.ĭue to this fast tempo at which that rhythm needs to be performed, it offers a great rhythm exercise that for most students is quite challenging at that speed. Jimmy appears to be playing some single-note rhythm stuff there that is buried in the mix and hence really hard to hear.
The bridge doesn’t have a rhythm guitar part. That part of the song is a dexterity and chord switching exercise. The part in the verse that most students have a hard time with is the quick transitioning between the chord shapes. I’ve always been a huge John Bonham fan, for obvious reasons.īoth song sections have their own unique challenges. The song also showcases John Bonham’s brilliance. Led Zeppelin released “Fool In The Rain” on the “In Through The Outdoor” album in 1979.
