    Believe it or not, this song, despite its length and strange arrangement, was played in regular rotation on FM rock stations during my youth. The older I get (alas, can't get a whole lot older, due to an expiration date unknown) the more I appreciate the music of my youth. Dang, we had great music back in the day.

      It was a fun time with all that great music by outstanding musicians. I was 11 when I was introduced to Led Zeppelin on a very popular music show called "Beat Club" here in Germany. Every Saturday afternoon for only 7 years (1965 till 1972) they gave us the best life music ever. Adults didn't like it much but my mom and grandma watched with me every Saturday, and after Beat Club a music show for older folks with German "Schlager" started.

    • @suzedeque
      @suzedeque 2 місяці тому +9

      I'm right there with you on our "expiration" date -- unknown but creeping closer every day! We were SO lucky to have grown up during the time of "make love, not war" and all that that entailed. The best days of my life! I was one of those who never fit into the mainstream, and it was hard getting by always being the outsider. Then the hippie movement came along and showed me EXACTLY where I belonged and who my peers were going to be for the rest of my life. We made great changes happen, we stood for the end of the war and the beginning of civil rights for EVERY AMERICAN! Our music reflected our new-found freedom, our joy and love for each other, and our commitment to equality for everyone and dedication to no more war. Alas, we couldn't change the world, but we did try. And that's saying more than most people can say when they look back on their youth. Long live the hippie spirit and the desire to fix this broken country and fill it with love for each other once more. Long live our great music and our great dream. NEVER surrender -- NEVER!!

    This song outraged so many parents back then.... I'm 58 and loved these guys since day 1. I have 2 older siblings, oneplayed Zepp, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath etc while the other was the Beatles, CCR, Cat Stevens etc..... I was SOOOOOO lucky!

      58 here too. I have 4 older siblings, 2 liked Rock--thank God. I got a bit of everything. Have a killer Vinyl collection. One artist people skip a lot that I know we all loved back in the day was Linda Ronstadt. I really miss the pure, honest female vocals from that era.

    I just want to make sure you Knew. Abbey road came out same year and beetle were doing ‘come together’ and ‘here comes the sun’ while the stones put out ‘gimme shelter’ and ‘you can’t always get what you want’ which are all great songs. But this is next level different and game changing. 1969. Wish I had been a teenager back then. My brother was only 1 and I was a wink in my father’s eye.

    THE GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME. Period. No question. During those years Playboy magazine would put out one special issue each year. They would put together a band, an orchestra really of the greatest musicians, in their opinion for that year. For example you might have Frank Sinatra as your lead singer, Jimmy Page as the lead guitarist etc. but in the Led Zepplin years it was amazing. Every year, every one to my recollection, each member of Zepplin made the list. ALL FOUR. So, Robert Plant was the band’s make believe orchestra’s lead singer. Jimmy Page lead guitarist. John Paul Jones on bass guitar. And the greatest drummer of all time, Jon Bonham on drums. I used to love seeing that every year.
    Long live the Mighty Zep!

    Happy Birthday, Polo! Hope you have an amazing day. The line "I wanna be your back door man" is an old blues riff. The husband or regular boyfriend came in through the front door and the "lover" came in through the back door. I just love how much you love Led Zeppelin. The sound track of my life from the late '60s through the '70s, there was Yes, LZ, Pink Floyd, ELP, The Moody Blues, Genesis, Jethro Tull, etc. etc. and you are there digging all of it. It's a joy to watch you hear these amazing bands and songs for your first time. =)

    I'm 56, so unfortunately I was a few years too late to see Zeppelin live. I only saw my first concert in 1979, grade 7. John Bonham died 1 year later. I did find a soundboard bootleg from March 19th and 20th 1975 from Vancouver's Pacific Coliseum... my home town. It sounds so freaking clear! I was too young to see it, but my uncles were there on the first night. I'm so freaking jealous. I did get to see Robert Plant solo though... 3 times... '83, '85, and '88. The '83 tour had Phil Collins on drums, and the encore was a jam similar to the psychedelic part of Whole Lotta Love, with Plant saying "Push it! Push it! Push it!". 😎

    Hi
    I’m a 53 year old man from the UK, I would love to see how a gentleman from the USA would react to a song from my younger days.
    In the late 70s and early 80s there was a musical phenomenon called Two tonne, Ska and sometimes skinhead music.
    It stated with working class kids who had grown up listening to traditional Jamaican ska, rocksteady, and reggae. These Influences were mixed with punk and a whole new movement was born.
    The artist from both black and white backgrounds came together to inspire the young people of the uk to stand and dance with each other.
    The track I was thinking of for you was Ghost town by the specials.
    The specials for a mix of black and white kids who had grown up together in a West Midlands town called Coventry in England. This was at the start of the 80s when Margaret Thatcher was still in power as the Prime Minister and unemployment was running high in the United Kingdom.
    It is more solemn belief that if more people came together with music the bit less hate in the world.
