Black Dog (Remaster)
\"Black Dog\" is built around a call and response dynamic between the vocalist and band, with its start and stop a cappella verses inspired by Fleetwood Mac's 1969 song \"Oh Well\", according to biographer Dave Lewis.[6] The title is a reference to a nameless black Labrador Retriever that wandered around the Headley Grange studios during the recording of the album.[7] The song was recorded with recording engineer Andy Johns at Island Studios on Basing Street in London.[8]
The black dog is a glow-eyed creature that often appears in British horror tales. He comes as a night ghost and is a sign of death and disaster. In the case of this Led Zeppelin song is it about a woman who first kills the singer with her stimulus , then also takes his money and property.
