I first heard this on Dr. Demetos show in So. Cal on the wonderful KMET the mighty met, man it must have been 1977 or 1978. How the years go by. I have this on a Zeppelin bootleg album of all things. Whoa, time warp.

I guess only people who listened to the Dr. Demento Show.

Heard this live in the late '70's in Palo Alto (Sophie's ??). Used to see all the Beserkley acts there or in Berkeley itself. Here's what was really funny - several years later this parody was the subject of a Trivial Pursuit question. When it came up and I read it I just started laughing - how many people would have heard of this? That's real trivia for ya...

Visited my hip cousins in Bay area, 1980: Highlights: Got saved, Baptist Rock Climbers in Yosemite; saw punk band competition (fish hooks in skin, etc. etc.) And HEARD Led Zepplin had been deflated by a parody and had sued, so I couldn't get the disk. Ah, You Tube-- Like Gutenberg (sp?) press, freeing the masses! If Zepplin really sued, I think it showed they NEEDED some "deflating!" But we sure liked to dance to the slow part, didn't we, in high school, til fast riff began & tore us all apart.

Its funny that in these older ones they just said "And the rest...". Later the song went "The professor and Merry Ann....".
