'Your Time Is Gonna Come' is a song by English rock music|rock band Led Zeppelin, released on their 1969 debut album Led Zeppelin (album)|Led Zeppelin.

Overview

Bass guitar|Bassist John Paul Jones played a Hammond M-100 organ (music)|organ, using Fender bass pedals to create the bass. 'Your Time Is Gonna Come' begins with two different organ tracks playing simultaneously - very similar to the effect used on 'Thank You (song)|Thank You' from the next album (Led Zeppelin II). Instead of the blues organ style used earlier on 'You Shook Me', Jones displays his training as a church organist. The style is very plain, as the intro sound uses a plain tone with no vibrato or percussion settings. Only in the song's choruses does he turn on the Vibrato feature, and it adds the same Leslie-style effect that is heard on 'You Shook Me.'

Guitarist Jimmy Page played a Fender Musical Instruments Corporation|Fender 12-string steel guitar on this Song|track.[1] In an interview he gave in 1977, Page stated that he only learnt how to play the steel guitar during the sessions for the first album.[2] The lyrics concern an unfaithful girl who will pay the price for her deceitful ways.

The only known performance of this song at Led Zeppelin concerts is a short snippet during a show at Tokyo on 24 September 1971, during the 'Whole Lotta Love' medley, of which a Led Zeppelin bootleg recordings|bootleg recording exists. The name of the bootleg is Light and Shade. Jimmy Page performed 'Your Time Is Gonna Come' on his tour with the Black Crowes in 1999. A version of the song performed by Page and the Black Crowes can be found on the album Live at the Greek.
