This was back in the days of the flower power hippie era. Yes girl’s would wear flowers in their hair. You should watch documentaries from that time and this song will make sense to you. I love how Jonesy aka John Paul Jones plays the mandolin. It is so pretty. Led Zep is still the best band of the 70’s🥰

In that era hippies put flowers in their hair. They were often called 'Flower Children.' And hey Asia, isn't it amazing how a highly original singer can find such an unique and personal way to deliver a lyric? Like people like Bowie, or Amy Winehouse, he has very identifiable phrasing.

My late Father, Bob Clunie, accidentally, created The Flower Children. He described, that one day, Bill Jackson III (a couple years, his junior) saw, that a florist had discarded a large amount of carnations. My Dad, had a truck, and he got his pal, Leon Krueger, to help him. They said, "Hey, These Are Still Good", packed them into the back of their truck, and handed them out, to everyone on Haight street. He said, "Even, The Cops were wearing them". They went to the Fillmore District, but had bottles thrown at them.

It’s not surprising, however I wasn’t aware. I did however know that Dylans’ song, “Tangled Up In Blue” was written about his love of Jonis’ “Blue” album. Saw her a million years ago with Pat Metheny and Jaco Pastorious backing her. I’ve forgotten the monsters on bass, drums and keys. ( Lyle Mayes ?) Jonathan, thanks for getting my memory working again. I, like so many absolutely love her. Regards.

Asia, Robert was not taking anyone with him. He was leaving an unkind woman behind (who "smoked all my stuff and drank all my wine"), to travel to and make a new start in California. He wrote the lyrics in the very early '70s (the song came out in '71) which was a time when hippies were the prominent counter-culture, particularly in coastal California from San Francisco down to San Diego. His lyric, "Mountains and the canyon start to tremble and shake/The Children of the Sun begin to awake", refers to The Valley side of the Hollywood Hills, specifically Laurel Canyon, which was a hotbed of artistic expression at that time. Joni Mitchell lived there, and it was she who inspired the song, and was referred to lyrically as, "Find a queen without a king/They say she plays guitar and sings".

This is such a beautiful song and Led Zeppelin was so versatile even though they always had their own sound. If you want to hear a banger that is both beautifully acoustic at times and then hard driving during other parts but still kind of acoustic, and some of Robert Plant's best singing I think. It's from their very first album Led Zeppelin and it's called, babe I'm going to leave you. It's just fantastic beyond belief and it's heart-wrenching but powerful and paints the picture of someone who feels they really have to move on and experienced something else but then is so torn that he realizes there perhaps he will never be able to leave her. Because he loves her that much.

Zeppelin's performances were always a unique experience from the album recordings. The studio versions have more polish, but live Page seemed to put way more effort into his playing and improvisation to make up for the difference. And Plant still hit most of the high notes in this performance. And John Paul Jones was equally amazing on the mandolin. No accident they are rock legends. California is awesome by the way, if you know where to go and how to get there.

California is a HUGE state with many diverse landscapes and ecologies. Mountains, deserts, rolling hill country, valleys, beaches, diverse coastlines, redwood forests, and yes, big cities. The homogeneous picture painted by every schmoo who's rolled into the state by freeway or plane, hit L.A., and then be-lined back to the bible belt with his story of life in "Cali", needs to be taken with a grain of sea salt.

Years ago I can’t even remember what year it was. It was a long damn time ago. I had to go on a business trip to California for the first time and I landed in the Oakland airport. Had to rent a car. I rented a convertible and that was back when we put in CDs and I brought my Led Zeppelin CD and I have to drive two hours north from Oakland to Petaluma and I knew that this is the song I was gonna listen to, but I didn’t realize that it was going to be so amazing with the beauty of that drive! I’ve always love the song, but after that, this song meant something totally different to me! This is such a beautiful song. By the way, that’s the only time I’ve ever been to California, and California is so freaking beautiful.

So, the lyrics, he says "He was spending his days with a woman unkind, who smoked his stuff, and drank all his wine. So he made up his mind, to make a new start, Going to California with an aching in his heart. Somebody told him there's a girl out there, with love in her eyes and flowers in her hair. Its a dream of starting a new life, in California, climbing his mountain of dreams, and never realizing that dream of that fantasy girl because she has never ever been born. I have heard the reference he gives to finding a queen without a king, they say she plays guitar and cries and sings, is about Joni Mitchell. Robert Plant liked her music. Its all a theoretical dream based on his desire to change his life.

The counter culture hippie singers like Joni and Mama Cass Elliot moved to Laurel Canyon LA. Another reference to flowers In the hair is the record by Scott McKenzie - San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair).

It’s about a guy in Britain (Robert) hearing how groovy it was out in California, during the hippy days (which coincided with the early days of the group. The girl who sings with flowers in her hair is said to be Joni Mitchell, who at the time was wowing people with her singing and songwriting (and beauty of course ...easy Robert you dog).

At the time this song came out, the hippie movement was in full swing and the girls did wear flowers in their hair as a part of that.

Flowers in her hair: probably a reference to the so-called "flower children" in northern CA--you know, hippies

Might make sense to revisit Scott McKenzie’s “San Francisco” and The Summer of Love (1967). Then realize Zep recorded this in 1971. The “dream” was over (Manson pretty much put that to an end). There is a “sense” of California but what does that mean to dreamers anymore? Go down THAT rabbit hole.

very nicely done live with different instrumentation and vocals at times but the studio version holds a special place in my heart with that magical atmosphere they capture and the specific melodic ideas they came up with for the guitar, vocals, and mandolin. you really should check it out. Zeppelin are really a band to treasure.

I'm 71 and a 60s 'Hippie', (I claim proudly). I just found out that Millennials and Gen X, HATE Hippies and Baby Boomers, their reasons are so, misguided. Too much hate nowadays.😪 and yes Asia, CA girls did wear flowers in their hair in the 60s.☮

As a boomer myself I can agree with the young'ins on this. The boomers ended up being the biggest sellouts of any generation! They went from make love, not war to just say NO! George Carlin has an excellent bit on how the boomers sold out. It's just pathetic really. 😔

A personal favorite of mine--thanks! Not one of their huge chart successes here in the States, but holds a special place in my heart since it came out. Btw, the flower in the hair was about the MOST iconic image of late 60s California hippie culture. The stereotype then was you go to San Francisco to be with the other hippies, all of whom would presumably be going around barefoot with flowers in their hair. It's a "flower power" era thing.
