    Listen to the end of the drum solo in 'Tank' of the 'Tarkus' album by Emerson, Lake and Palmer... on headphones. Your head explodes.

    Correction... 'Tank' in on the first E.L.P. record.

    May This Be Love by Hendrix. Wow. the ending instrumental is when it comes in. the guitars and percussion trade sides over and over. real trippy. great post!
    My favorite Pearl Jam song: "Corporate Greed Boat Asshole Behind a Counter in the Oval Office"

    I just listened to Electric Ladyland and it shows up in quite a few songs. Crosstown Traffic, Voodoo Chile, and quite obviously 1983..........

    That is what came to mind when I started reading this thread. I was thinking it was "Whole Lotta Love", but you are right it's "What is".

    Which kind of illustrates what I was talking about earlier. Panning was a killer effect when Hendrix recorded Electric Ladyland. By the time Zep blasted this one out of your speakers it had become a very tired cliche.

    I like the way a lot of artists have resurrected it. The key is not to overuse it.

    I think it works well on Led Zep II, cliche or not. Just look at the number of people in this thread who pointed to it as the go to panning song.

    OK, how about it was cliched and overused AFTER Led Zep II? ;)

    I think Pink Floyd did it better than Hendrix and Zep, overall.

    When it's used in the right place, it's never cliche.

    Interstellar Overdrive by Pink Floyd is another that goes from spearker to speaker.
