I love that song, but in the Context of the album, much less the 3rd song. it doesn't fit in at all. Should have been on the EP

Well it's a joke tune... that said, you could say that about his playing on the whole album. He was smacked out and Jonesy took over as musical director, and ITTOD was also the 1st time that he started dicking with that stupid fucking B-bender.
Why in the hell would you put a joke song as the 2nd track ? A b side or the last track…OK. It’s just a very stupid, poorly played attempt at a country song. I’ll never understand why they did it.
It was the last song on the 1st side... remember, ITTOD was made when there were only albums, and albums had sides.
Your right . It’s track 4 . It’s been so long since i had it on vinyl, i was going off my iPod skip button memory.

I dunno. With some of the weirdness on side 2, i dont think it stands out as being the one bad tune on there.

I heard that for the first time last week. I messaged my Zep-super-fan friend "is this the worst song in their catalogue?", he replied almost exactly the same as you, except only 30 years.

Agree, doesn't fit there at all. Ruins the flow.

It's absolutely idiotic to contend Zep weren't A-listers in the 1970s.

Saigon Kick - The Lizard, IMO, the "quirky"/gimmick songs ("My Dog", "Chanel") and the useless/forgettable instrumentals greatly detract from the overall "album".

I do not feel TOP is an amazing album. Although, Home Sweet Home proved to be a $olid track for them.
I love this record & the answer is "Magic Johnson".
FTFY... especially 2 years later.

It would be harsh to call it garbage, but "Just For You" on Bang Tango's Psycho Cafe is a boring song on an otherwise top-to-bottom great album.

Usually skipped that one.

You're Crazy blows. Can't believe they felt the need to do another version for version. Anything Goes is okay. Works well within the flow of the album.

Great call. The only bad song on the album. Maybe it would have worked better as an instrumental?

Dig It is a pile of shite throwaway that should've been left on the cutting room floor
I'm a huge Beatles fan, and I think you're right about that. Aside from the different (better) mix, the other reason I prefer Let It Be... Naked to the original is that "Dig It" is nowhere to be found.

Warrant's cover of Train Train was completely unnecessary. Thin Disguise or Game of War would have been much better choices.

Look What the Cat Dragged in would have been amazing if it stopped after the title track, but it falls completely apart after that.
