"Mannish Boy" (or "Manish Boy" as it was first labeled) is a #bluesStandard written by #MuddyWaters, #MelLondon, and #BoDiddley (with Waters and Diddley being credited under their birth names). First recorded in 1955 by Waters, it serves as an "#answerSong" to Bo Diddley's "#ImAMan", which was in turn inspired by Waters' and #WillieDixon's "#HoochieCoochieMan". "Mannish Boy" features a repeating #stoptime figure on one chord throughout the song.

"Whole Lotta Love" is a song by the English #rock band Led Zeppelin. It is the opening track on the band's second album, #LedZeppelinII, and was released as a single in 1969 in several countries; as with other Led Zeppelin songs, no single was released in the United Kingdom. In the United States, it became their first hit and was certified #gold. Parts of the song's lyrics were adapted from #WillieDixon's "#YouNeedLove", recorded by #MuddyWaters in 1962.
