Are you sure about that? I thought Page and Plant penned this one.
Edit: I do find Holmes credited along with Page and Plant and the performance predates Led Zep first release.

Strange
Original: Wire (Pink Flag)
Cover: REM (Document)
This is a recent revelation. Hadn’t listened to the Pink Flag album in probably 35 years and picked up a remastered version recently. Listening to it and thinking, “Is that an REM song?” Then realized that Pink Flag was released before REM was even formed.
