Stairway To Heaven
- Rank: 3
- Album: Led Zeppelin IV
Jimmy Page trampled over two rules of pop music with this masterpiece: it’s more than eight minutes long, a previously prohibited length for pop radio formats, and the tempo speeds up as the song unfolds. “Stairway” is the epitome of Page’s brilliance as not only a guitarist, but a composer and arranger, as he layers six-string acoustic and 12-string electric guitars throughout the song in a gradual crescendo that culminates in what many consider to be the perfect rock guitar solo, performed on his trusty 1959 Fender “Dragon” Telecaster (his go-to guitar in the early days of Led Zeppelin).
