I love it. It's jam session I have it. Don't suppose to sound excelleit's got a couple of legends getting together, not gonna get out so what Jimmy Page might have a buzz. It's a life man.
Plant's ability to make his laryngitis sound good and show his new ax skills along with Young's convulsive shredding of his (truly on par with Hedrix's guitar fire) can't be described and must be seen. Jones' smoother-than-his-own good presence and galvinizing base , Page's hysterical reaction to Plants first three cords and Lee's similarity to an out-of- control Sesame Street muppet on steroids (wished they were able to film him better!) puts this garage band in a league never seen!
@@JudeScott007 I imagine it was a little rough for Plant to sing over an out of tune racket. Not sure what was with the guitar though. A rehearsal might have helped?
Holy Jesus. Took Thirty YEARS for me to learn that Page and Young performed a Zep song on stage live. Now I can just die in peace. I may go cry now. Beauty.
its why i love youtube. I just found out about the o2 concert with Zep, i cried threw the whole concert videos.. ( I was in a little village in Italy,20yrs no mtv for us)
Such a struggle for every note for everyone... Page is exceptionally high, starts the song staggering abruptly before anyone else is ready... It's gold! Then Plant grabs a guitar and stares at it wondering what it is and what he is supposed to do with it... Like I said, pure gold!
Half of my rock heroes on stage together in a potpourri of chaos - Plant evidently with a throat infection and a redundant guitar, JPJ in a puffy shirt, Page pissing himself over Young's guitar solos, and Young not caring about anything except the reluctant steer he's apparently wrestling to the ground. Love it.
Come on people! Don't take this performance too seriously. It was just for fun. Don't forget who these people are. They wrote anthems and played their hearts out to the whole world for many years and have nothing to prove to you or me. They are musical Gods and that will never change!
Never seen this video before. Totally new take on When the Levee Breaks, grungy and nasty. I was aware that Plant knew how to hold a guitar, but I’ve never seen him do so publicly. Gotta save and watch this one some more. Love how Neil is in the moment and rockin in the free world with the world’s greatest band. What an awesome jam!
The greatness of this is that it shows in its simplicity a few of the things that made Led Zeppelin the best rock band ever. First, Page, Jones and Michael Lee lay down a powerful hypnotic groove, essential to Led Zeppelin. Page, being the consummate band leader, knows that he's got something special in the blues noise realm happening, so he just lays it down and doesn't lead the jam anywhere but where it needs to stay ... in the groove, with Jones embellishing. Plant, iconic front man that he was, sees an opportunity for some joyous madness, and, throwing all caution to the wind, grabs a guitar and goes for it. The result is an expression of exuberance, joy and a love for the stage and the company of his fellow musicians, and some Buffalo Springfield too. All this is made possible by Page, who has allowed Young and Plant plenty of room to be themselves, and the massive rhythm section sound of Jones and Michael Lee , an incredible drummer who, like John Bonham, died far too young for words. This jam was a monumental act of spontaneous skronk and joy!
I saw this as some guys having a jam session and having fun. Some best times I've had was jamming with friends and all of us just cutting loose and not worrying about being precise. Good times.
It was clear they forgot to tune.. and how to play. But it didn't seem they were taking it too seriously. They earned their place back in the day. Granted JPJ and the drummer sounded good. Neil was being Neil.
It's obvious to anyone watching that fiasco that Neil Young is completely out of his League. Jimmy Page is probably the most patient and gracious guitar player in rock and roll to allow that to happen.
They are monsters!!!! There is no mega stage effects, super production...just the best cool guys from the all Rock ´nd Roll history!!! Led Zeppelin forever!
that's how Jimmy is so confident with himself... he'll let you get the spotlight with your solos... and he'll even play second fiddle (rhythm guitar) to accompany you and raise you up so you may have your own moment on stage
Neil is totally on fire, totally immersed in the rhythm. I love how led zeppelin just let him fly, that's what's they were all about- letting the music go where it needs to and forget posturing and ego. Incredible performance
It was a BAD BAD idea for Neil Young to start before Page. Neil Young was in his own world and obviously never heard the song before. Jimmy, is thinking WTF did the Canadian do to my song.
All hail the kings!!! Nobody from years ago or now can even come close to Zeppelin. They were ahead of their time. They deserve to be in the R & R hall of fame! Congrats guys!!
Ahead of there times?? They stole it all from the past and England didn't like it was moved forward with Bowie etc whilst stoned Americans liked Zeppelin and black Sabbath. Zeppelin put music backwards same as Hendrix did. In 66/67 the Beatles were writing tomorrow never knows,a day in the life, penny lane, I am the walrus ,hey Jude which was music 100 yrs ahead of Zeppelin and heavy metal shit! Zeppelin and bends like them killed rock n roll hence punk! They stole all there music which made it sour
Now that is how you drive a riff straight into the ground until your fingers bleed... they had me smiling from ear to ear for the whole song... how can you not love this!!
This was so good had to watch it twice! So ol' John Paul Jones was his total Mr Cool self, calming watching Neil and tryin not to crack a smile...awesome stuff, great version of when the levee breaks
It was horrible. Neil Young decided to start the song and he played a riff isn't even close. The cowgirl in the sand from Canada doesn't belong anywhere near English rockers.
I know I'm in the minority, but I really love this. Page has no real idea what's going on, but JPJ does; he gets that there's a real connection between Plant and Young. It's why Plant picks up the guitar. To bleed into the noise Neil's creating. He's digging it. Plant's never liked dredging up stuff he'd done before. And this was new, this sound he was making with Neil. He ignores JP. It's all about Neil. That's why he spontaneously brings in the bit of FWIW; he really did feel like something was going on. Look at connection between them at 6:10; it's like Plant is calming a wild animal. Neil's eyes are locked on him, waiting the signal. The drama is just fantastic. To me, the whole things works; including when JPJ cranks the tempo at 6:30, and Neil gurns on that cyclic riff of his. They're clearly having a blast by this point, and it's great to see. So to me, this is real, live collaboration. And I love it.
Leave it to Neil to grunge it up while jamming with Plant, a unique performance. Could Jimmy Page have been the 3rd guitarist? Never heard that before.
Really and who died and named you GOD to judge what everyone else thinks? You're like a spoiled rich bitch driving 55 on a 65 highway with nothing better to, and you speed up everytime a some one who has an emergency to go to or is trying to get to work on time tries to get around you, and when they get back in the slow you slow your arse down again. I really am glad that my kids didn't have a charmed life with rich parents or have some guy with money keep them.
Incredible I've never seen this video before having been raised on Led Zeppelin since the 70's! Even more Incredible I didn’t even recognize the song having to do a double take at the UA-cam title rather than recognition by hearing it given the VERY different sound of Neil Young oddly playing his own highly unigue version apparently on lead guitar with Jimmy Page letting it happen. Even stranger & almost appearing as comedy was Robert Plant throwing on a guitar to make this whole performance even stranger. This video proves the adage that if U ever think you've seen it all or heard it all....U haven't!!lol
I love this. I can tell the Guys were having a blast. It was awesome seeing Robert pull out the guitar and hitting a few licks...Jimmy's smile was priceless !! Thank you for posting R&RHF..Too cool !!
This performance is beyond good. It is transcendentally good. It raises the word good to a completely new level of meaning! This is the pure definition of rock and roll right here.
JWC 1958 Really good Phenomenal performance with the great Neil Young rocking out with Zeppelin. One of the greatest rock bands of all time. Just mostly listened to the Zeppelin hits in the 70's. Now this 65 year old enjoys them and appreciates them a lot more on UA-cam and Classic rock radio stations.
Enjoying all the Zeppelin songs. Getting wife to buy me 10 Cd box set of all Zeppelin recordings to enjoy. Long live the remaining members of Zeppelin. Rock on!!!
That was awesome! I'm a huge Zeppelin fan, but I totally accept this as the jam it was. I agree that Jimmy was being charitable and letting Neil take the solo's. I wouldn't be surprised if it was discussed beforehand. Neil is one of the original punk guitarists and he ripped it up! Great fun!
Neil has a history of domination. He apparently can’t help himself. The biography about Neil Young called “Shakey” is worth the read. It cracked me up at the parts where Young went into some zone and just completely trampled other guitarists. The author made it out to be like a personality defect. Lol
Neil's been the out there solo guy since the 60's, so hardly charity, that's who he is, they'd be more than aware. Seemed to me like they had fun, so f@#$ anyone whoe cares to much about perfection.
It's not about impressing those on the floor, ok? This is what jam sessions look like...hours and hours....into the morning. I'm shaking my head at how many here making comments don't "get it" and...honestly,,, they never will.
Plant and Young are playing guitar like Yoko Ono sings. If I didnt know who these people were and that they indeed are some of the most talented people in rock, I would assume those was like a rock n roll fantasy camp for rich dads
The best part of that was Plant singing, "There's something happening here, what it is ain't exactly clear..." The rhythm section was truly what held that together.
@@mtnvalley9298 I don't think so... John Paul Jones and Page looked at Neil Young like he was out of his mind and just stood out of his way and basically let him make an ass of himself. At least that's the impression I got watching this I could be wrong but that's just my opinion
@@mtnvalley9298 75 people agreed with me and zero people agreed with you at this point...... I don't know how you can "eyeroll" that buddy. BTW, of course none of the guys in the band would say how they really feel they have to be polite about everything nobody's going to actually knock Neil Young like that, but their expressions on their face and their body language during the so-called improvisation says it all lol
Neil embodies the sheer joy of playing a monster loud electric guitar and Jimmy loves it. Pity all the fools who can't see that because they think Young doesn't have 'good technique'. He's a hurricane🤘
The drums sounded dead, sounded flat like a cheap Hello Kitty drum set or some shit compared to John and Jason's booming and deep sounding drums. I think that's what made this song so good. With the volume turned up to 11, on a good car stereo, with that loud booming base drum and those loud, crystal clear, cymbals. Your rearview mirror didn't really stand a chance staying attached, but who cared anyways!
Neil plays loudly, and he is very intense, that's what he does. If Jimmy didn't like this, he wouldn't have invited Neil. And the nod to Buffalo Springfield was pretty cool.
Agreed, and Plant implements the Buffalo Springfield lyrics into Levee like an unreleased additional verse. So ingeniously performed here , if you weren't familiar with the Buffalo Springfield song, you'd think it was a verse that Plant wrote , then left out at inception of the recording of Levee, but decided to install it this nite with Neil Young. It was a tribute to Neil that'd melt any musician, no matter their success or recognition. I've underestimated Robert Plant at times like many others, but his vocal injury in the 70s was beyond his control. At the end of the day this guy has as much talent to improv and blend-in as anyone else in Zep.
They all look like they’re having the time of their lives. Sad that they could never stay back together. Incredible musicians in a league all their own
I never tire watching Neil Young wrestling them notes out of his guitar! When Robert straps on a guitar and shoots Neil a conspiratorial, mischievous grin, egging Neil on into some righteous guitar weaving with Pagey and JPJ!
I'm a lifelong Zeppelin fan since the 70's & as most comments have said here every aspect of this performance is rough on the ears. This would be the last gasp of Robert Plant's voice trying hard to reach some semblance of high notes which were totally long gone by 2007 with the final Led Zeppelin reunion concert. This is a lesson to all aspiring singers & those early in their careers. Robert Plant was 1 of the greatest Rock singers of all time...but didn’t have professional vocal training & used improper damaging singing technique permanently damaging his vocal cords by late 1972 when he like many singers pushed on thru his concert while very sick rather than postponing the show til he recovered. When singers over push their inflamed vocal cords they often cause hemorrhaging of the blood vessels which then causes bubbles filled with blood on the vocal cords. If U don't immediately do vocal rest for weeks or possibly months directed by an ENT/Vocal specialist...the blood filled bubbles burst permanently scarring the vocal cords. The scar tissue causes hoarseness & loss of range which then can only be treated by surgery with scapel or laser which changes the surface of the vocal cords forever. Once the surface of the vocal cords has been altered they'll never sound the same or be as good again....illustrated perfectly by Adele, Mariah Carey, Elton John to name just a few & of course Robert Plant who only had 4 incredible years before a concert that would lead to decades of painfully declining range, power, & ability. Singers never think it will happen to them...until it does.
Heather Zettlemoyer Neil Young just has bags more energy, attitude and chops, even if it seems a bit sloppy, than others less than half his age. Keep on rocking Neil, an absolute legend.
he looks possessed. i think he is out of his mind because the only thing he seems to be aware of is that it is them that he is playing with and it is overwhelming hahahahahaa it is too funny
I absolutely love the laid back vibe of jamming during this hall of fame performance. That's so Led Zeppelin lol. I just love seeing Neil and Robert and Jimmy enjoying themselves with one another. Then Robert gives that nod to Buffalo Springfield with those lyrics..just all around fucking cool. Thanks for the post ✌🖤🤘
Crying won’t help ya, praying won’t do ya no good! I love that !
I love it. It's jam session I have it. Don't suppose to sound excelleit's got a couple of legends getting together, not gonna get out so what Jimmy Page might have a buzz. It's a life man.
This reminds me of a teenage garage band jamming along to a blues song they barely know. But they’re having fun all the same.
Yes very garagey. Wish Zep had been a bit more garegey in the heyday.
Plant's ability to make his laryngitis sound good and show his new ax skills along with Young's convulsive shredding of his (truly on par with Hedrix's guitar fire) can't be described and must be seen.
Jones' smoother-than-his-own good presence and galvinizing base , Page's hysterical reaction to Plants first three cords and Lee's similarity to an out-of- control Sesame Street muppet on steroids (wished they were able to film him better!)
puts this garage band in a league never seen!

Whatever flaws are apparent...they're having a great time 'rockin' in the free world' love it !
Raw as it gets, true punk and Plant on guitar! Truly wild man
This performance is beyond good. It is transcendentally good. It raises the word good to a completely new level of meaning! This is the pure definition of rock and roll right here.
JWC 1958 Really good Phenomenal performance with the great Neil Young rocking out with Zeppelin. One of the greatest rock bands of all time. Just mostly listened to the Zeppelin hits in the 70's. Now this 65 year old enjoys them and appreciates them a lot more on UA-cam and Classic rock radio stations.
Enjoying all the Zeppelin songs. Getting wife to buy me 10 Cd box set of all Zeppelin recordings to enjoy. Long live the remaining members of Zeppelin. Rock on!!!
Les Paul, thanks for inventing this great powerful tool!
YEEEEEEESSSS!!! The electrical guitar, reverb, and multi tracking. LOVE me some Les Paul history.
Neil's into it man... love it. They're just havin' fun haha. Neil's tone though, that 5E3 bout ready to explode tone. LOVE IT.
1:23 Neil looks like someone trying to start a chainsaw while ice skating,
I know he’s Canadian but that’s a bit much doncha think?

Don't Cry No Tears Around Me.
That was awesome! I'm a huge Zeppelin fan, but I totally accept this as the jam it was. I agree that Jimmy was being charitable and letting Neil take the solo's. I wouldn't be surprised if it was discussed beforehand. Neil is one of the original punk guitarists and he ripped it up! Great fun!
Neil has a history of domination. He apparently can’t help himself. The biography about Neil Young called “Shakey” is worth the read. It cracked me up at the parts where Young went into some zone and just completely trampled other guitarists. The author made it out to be like a personality defect. Lol
@@AI-me8sl It's kind of hard on the listener sometime
Neil's been the out there solo guy since the 60's, so hardly charity, that's who he is, they'd be more than aware.
Seemed to me like they had fun, so f@#$ anyone whoe cares to much about perfection.
It's not about impressing those on the floor, ok?
This is what jam sessions look like...hours and hours....into the morning.
I'm shaking my head at how many here making comments don't "get it" and...honestly,,,
they never will.
This totally made my day!
Neil Young like the drunk uncle at a xmas party lol
Bahahahaha. Sooo much so. Gotta love him.
@@garywhitaker9854No.
That's what happens when you spend too much time down by the river, playin' around with that cinnamon girl.
The crazy uncle who really knows how to make a guitar sing
Where was the chord change they just kept playing the same thing over and over!! Where was the break?? 😳
You haters don’t get it. These Guys, NY included started their careers listening to the old blues masters. Back then everything was a jam session
Got that right man
Nothing wrong with a jam, it just sounds weird, out of tune or something.
Yeah but those old blues lads were talented
yEAH..... nah.... this was shit
@@rodparnell1953
It's Rock N Roll.
Plant friggin pulled off epic guitar, Neil unbelievable, this is 5 iconic men having a great time showing off beyond fantastic talent
Plant and Young are playing guitar like Yoko Ono sings. If I didnt know who these people were and that they indeed are some of the most talented people in rock, I would assume those was like a rock n roll fantasy camp for rich dads
The best part of that was Plant singing, "There's something happening here, what it is ain't exactly clear..." The rhythm section was truly what held that together.
You fools do not understand Neil takes this song to another dimension. Just feel it! That is what rock is all about.
l can see they are having a great time playing rock and roll
Actually, it wasn't a Led Zeppelin song.... It was plagiarized, not that that makes any difference.
it is a cover you little bitch
The best rock live in the 90's!
I have been a lifelong Zeppelin fan but this was one of the most painful things I've ever watched....
Me too! 😂🤣🤣
It was beautiful!! They loved playing together!!
@@mtnvalley9298 I don't think so... John Paul Jones and Page looked at Neil Young like he was out of his mind and just stood out of his way and basically let him make an ass of himself. At least that's the impression I got watching this I could be wrong but that's just my opinion
@@robertmarszalek1978 They all disagreed with you, but of course, your opinion should count for something eyeroll
@@mtnvalley9298 75 people agreed with me and zero people agreed with you at this point...... I don't know how you can "eyeroll" that buddy. BTW, of course none of the guys in the band would say how they really feel they have to be polite about everything nobody's going to actually knock Neil Young like that, but their expressions on their face and their body language during the so-called improvisation says it all lol
Jonesie in the background keeping it all together. Golden!
Мама , Миа!! Но любимые ребята сами получают удовольствие... улыбаются благородно.. А Роберт больше всех веселится!!Браво!!!❤
Plant: I don't normally play guitar, but I'm gonna show you how to do it, Neil. 😁
RIP Michael Lee - monster on drums!!
Neil embodies the sheer joy of playing a monster loud electric guitar and Jimmy loves it. Pity all the fools who can't see that because they think Young doesn't have 'good technique'. He's a hurricane🤘
Neil absolutely shreds
THEY ARE BOTH LEGENEDS.
The drums sounded dead, sounded flat like a cheap Hello Kitty drum set or some shit compared to John and Jason's booming and deep sounding drums.
I think that's what made this song so good. With the volume turned up to 11, on a good car stereo, with that loud booming base drum and those loud, crystal clear, cymbals. Your rearview mirror didn't really stand a chance staying attached, but who cared anyways!
Neil is forever.
Neil Young is ....awesome
Why am I sitting here waiting for page to solo?
Right.. shit. Neil young and Robert plant and no page? I want to stab myself in the ear with a butter knife.
I thinkhe was trying too but let neil take his wrath out and put his shit spin on what is an otherwise amazing song
@@atheistmecca971 im sure this was planned
If he would of pulled out a harmonica it would of been get him the fuck out of here.
He's too busy laughing
Having a stage full of legends does mean a legendary performance will ensue.
Neil plays loudly, and he is very intense, that's what he does. If Jimmy didn't like this, he wouldn't have invited Neil. And the nod to Buffalo Springfield was pretty cool.
Agreed, and Plant implements the Buffalo Springfield lyrics into Levee like an unreleased additional verse. So ingeniously performed here , if you weren't familiar with the Buffalo Springfield song, you'd think it was a verse that Plant wrote , then left out at inception of the recording of Levee, but decided to install it this nite with Neil Young. It was a tribute to Neil that'd melt any musician, no matter their success or recognition.
I've underestimated Robert Plant at times like many others, but his vocal injury in the 70s was beyond his control. At the end of the day this guy has as much talent to improv and blend-in as anyone else in Zep.
Jimmy loved it.
Neil SUCKS
everybody knows this is nowhere, lets drink some beer!!!!
Now I know why John Paul Jones is actually one of the true musician in the Rock.
They all look like they’re having the time of their lives. Sad that they could never stay back together. Incredible musicians in a league all their own
John Paul Jones is in the pocket, enjoying Neil go off
Neil Young Born To Rock
To this day ,I still get chills from this ...
I never tire watching Neil Young wrestling them notes out of his guitar! When Robert straps on a guitar and shoots Neil a conspiratorial, mischievous grin, egging Neil on into some righteous guitar weaving with Pagey and JPJ!
Neil young sucks on guitar made a bunch of stupid fucking noise please spare me

Bass Demon Horrible rendition of a great song. I could've never seen this and be fine
@@jimlamanna9712 Parts of it are ok but it's a bit rough and sounds under rehearsed, they probably did a quick rehearsal before the show.
He's really getting into it. Not often I've seen him rocking out like that.
@@jimlamanna9712 Yeah, great lineup, great song, horrible take. It happens...
Levee really needs to be the original. To do it justice. Rnr!!
I'm not surprised at all at how many people don't get it.
I’m surprised
I love Neil so I love this. 😊
Looks like jimmy is playing his #1 1960 Les Paul - fun to see all his great vintage guitars used again and again over the years!
I just wish that I was there to see this live. Fantastic
Jimi page and Neil Young! Outstanding! And Robert plant holding his own on guitar! Big fan of all three!
I'm a lifelong Zeppelin fan since the 70's & as most comments have said here every aspect of this performance is rough on the ears. This would be the last gasp of Robert Plant's voice trying hard to reach some semblance of high notes which were totally long gone by 2007 with the final Led Zeppelin reunion concert. This is a lesson to all aspiring singers & those early in their careers. Robert Plant was 1 of the greatest Rock singers of all time...but didn’t have professional vocal training & used improper damaging singing technique permanently damaging his vocal cords by late 1972 when he like many singers pushed on thru his concert while very sick rather than postponing the show til he recovered. When singers over push their inflamed vocal cords they often cause hemorrhaging of the blood vessels which then causes bubbles filled with blood on the vocal cords. If U don't immediately do vocal rest for weeks or possibly months directed by an ENT/Vocal specialist...the blood filled bubbles burst permanently scarring the vocal cords. The scar tissue causes hoarseness & loss of range which then can only be treated by surgery with scapel or laser which changes the surface of the vocal cords forever. Once the surface of the vocal cords has been altered they'll never sound the same or be as good again....illustrated perfectly by Adele, Mariah Carey, Elton John to name just a few & of course Robert Plant who only had 4 incredible years before a concert that would lead to decades of painfully declining range, power, & ability. Singers never think it will happen to them...until it does.
100%True.
That is the best performance of Led Zeppelin I ever have seen. Great 😅
Middle-aged men being very silly. I love it. Three Les Pauls, cripes.
2 of favorite heavy metal guitarists playing zeppelin together. Omg
Why didn't they play,
"Rock and Roll"
at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame??!?
That was only one of many songs they played that night.
Well, it has been a long time since they rock and rolled 😂
They did, or at least Neil thought so😁
Without Bohnam, you can't do that.
@@hiptrip99 Technically they have Bonham
They're all the coolest grandparents anyone can have.
Neil looks/sounds like he is having one hell of a good time!
Heather Zettlemoyer
Neil Young just has bags more energy, attitude and chops, even if it seems a bit sloppy, than others less than half his age.
Keep on rocking Neil, an absolute legend.
Neil was having one hell of a Great time! Yeah!
he looks possessed. i think he is out of his mind because the only thing he seems to be aware of is that it is them that he is playing with and it is overwhelming hahahahahaa it is too funny
Neil just fucking rocks out all the time.LOL
always!
28 years later I am still impressed
LED ZEPPELIN FOREVER! LONG LIVE LED ZEPPELIN!
Brilliant!
Love how Neil Young arr this song. It’s just pure raw rock.
man that's the longest A chord
That's was a aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa chord
The strongest performance is Jones, one of the most underated musicians.
He has never been underated by ANYONE dumb ass. Are you 10 years old ?
@@deebop4904 LoL !! JPJ one of the greatest of all time. You tell 'em !!!
always amazing to see the cliche internet 'underrated' comment. wow. As if this applies to JPJ.
JPJ made that band stand out. You'd be hard to find a bassist or guitarist who could deny that.
@@damianb2374
Hush up twerp
Can't say what, but this is a great composition AND performed by "Gods"!
Neil... just have a snickers
😎🤭😎
🤣🤣
I think he had too many before the show...
His snickers was laced
Has a snickers, turns into Eric Clapton.
OMG!! WHAT FUN!!!!
I absolutely love the laid back vibe of jamming during this hall of fame performance. That's so Led Zeppelin lol. I just love seeing Neil and Robert and Jimmy enjoying themselves with one another. Then Robert gives that nod to Buffalo Springfield with those lyrics..just all around fucking cool. Thanks for the post ✌🖤🤘
Let me get this straight...you got Jimmy frickin Page on stage, and Neil Young and Robert Plant are playing the solos......?
Neil Young is just terrible worst guitar tone worst guitar playing in the history of guitar that's why he's in the Hall of Fame
@@BoomerCovers He had his moments in the 70s where he was really good.
I like Neil but he should give Jimmy some space. After all it is his song.
@@BoomerCovers Lololol! Most of all he (Neil Young) can’t sing AT ALL! When he “sings” he sounds like a Siamese cat in SERIOUS heat! Lol! 😂🤣🤣😂😭!
@@Luvly2457 This video is just too funny, Neil... , Robert with a guitar, and jonesy wanting to get the hell out of there...holy shit!!! hahahaha
I cant take Robert seriously with that guitar.
LedSabbathQueenie quite the name there. guessing your three favorite bands
Julio Perez Yes. Also The Beatles are my favourite but I couldnt think of another name.
LedSabbathQueenie led zeppelin take the cake for my absolute favorite band but black sabbath is a close 3rd behind Pink Floyd
I can't take bobplant seriously as a vocalist...makes geddy lee look like a lead singer sorta kinda in a sense
"How do I make this guitar go babaybabababybababybaaaaaaaaaybaayyyyy"
Robert with guitar: How do I make this thing go babe?
+Austin Angler lmao
Austin Angler Hilarious!
And also he should say, how I make this say mama? Hahaha.
You stole this comment

I love this song. Kodos, to all. In august 2024, still are people inlove with Led Zepp. 😊😊😊
