Tonight’s mystery artists have a song of which Rolling Stone said, “The down-stroke riff came very close to punk seven years before its time”. Think you know the song of band??

This opinion from the Rolling Stone came out in an article ‘40 of the Greatest Led Zeppelin Songs of All Time’ in reference to ‘Communication Breakdown’. The down-stroke riff in that song was also cited in the documentary of the first band to be defined as punk 'Ramones: The True Story ‘as being the inspiration for Johnny Ramones' guitar style and that early on in his career he would just play it over and over again.
