A blues player named Mephis Minnie wrote and played this song in the 1930's about a flood in 1927 in Mississippi.... Led Zeppelin after pressure paid homage to her a couple years later after her death in the early 70's..
Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe Mccoy were the original artists. Just a guitar and voice. Here is a link ua-cam.com/video/swhEa8vuP6U/v-deo.html
Led Zeppelin turned it into a beast of a song with those drums.
Maria Muldaur, of Midnight At The Oasis fame, is part of the Blues Preservation Project and did a whole album of covers of pre-WWII Memphis blues by female singers. Most are pretty good but some are a little raw. Album title and lead song is Richland Woman Blues.
@@rachelles3275 Rob & Amber should react to her version the original.
Led Zeppelin did have a tendency not to give credit to the original artists. Like most of the rock bands of the late 60's, they were steeped in old blues from American artists. Other Led Zepp songs initially not properly credited to the original performers: "Whole Lotta Love" (writer Willie Dixon, sung by Muddy Waters) , "The Lemon Song" (Howling Wolf, and it took a lawsuit for him to get credit), "Bring it on Home" (Willie Dixon again, sung by Sonny Boy Williamson), "In My Time of Dying" (Blind Willie Johnson), and many more.
Led Zeppelin - "since ive been loving you" (remastered)
That's the one guys. Robert Plant is a heck of a singer
Led Zeppelin was the greatest blues band that ever existed.
Led Zeppelin is the most bluesy band in the history of rock bands 💯
Well, Zep is my favorite band, but most bluesy? Canned Heat? Humble Pie? Early ZZ Top? Rolling Stones? Others I can’t think of right now. Zep did blues GREAT, and Plant is fantastic blues singer and Page plays great blues guitar, but I think I might give the nod to HP on that one. Or CH. even Plant talks about Canned Heat bringing back the real blues.,,
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 I definitely respect your opinion we all have our faves mine obviously is led Zeppelin in the hard rock blues category second for me would be Grand funk railroad for sure 👍
@@wwekidder123 Ah…….you said most bluesy of rock bands. Then you said HARD rock. If you say the most bluesy of hard rock bands, then I agree completely! 👍
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 yup agree
Can't label LZ.
They are prog rock, too.
the harmonica is like a warning siren, Amber nails it once again
I've heard this song a million times but when you said that it was like I was hearing it for the 1st time the hair stood up on my arm Thanks for that :)
Yep, she's really good at doing that
I always heard the harmonica as the sound of wind and breaking houses. I heard the deep drawn out bass in the back as a siren like you hear in the south when a tornado comes in.
The story behind Robert Plant stealing a harmonica from a famous Blue Harp player who was quite abrupt to Robert (this before he was a Rocknroll God)..he’s a great Harp player himself..each & every member of Led Zeppelin we’re brilliant !!!
Yeah, I hear harmonica like that, and I can almost feel a train going by.
Amber: once again you surprise me. Your critique is more true and right on than any music critic of the time.... 1960's baby. You are wise beyond your years
If you let her speak she will light your world ❤
Yes finally!! Isn’t this just one of the best songs ever!!!! Bonzo’s drums 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 and Robert’s harmonica! ❤️
pattyestradao
Uhhuh! 💯
Yes! I’ve been waiting!
Whole Led Zeppelin 4 is CLASSIC. No filler on the whole album.
I think this might be the one and only John Bonham drum riff that I could play and I'm not really a drummer I'm talkin about air drums!!😁😁😎
Can't say its easy to pick a favorite Led Zeppelin song. I'll name a few top of the list so to speak. "10 Years Gone" "No Quarter" "Gallows Pole" "That's The Way" "Hey Hey What Can I Do" "Immigrant Song" and "Nobody's Fault But Mine"
Led Zepplin IV ... One of the very best rock and roll albums. Ever.
Being an old man who heard this song when it was first released, it’s so enjoyable to watch and hear people experiencing it for the first time.
Plants voice is another instrument in the band. And the harmonica is an extention of it.
One of my favorite Led Zeppelin song, along with Kashmir
Zeppelin's "In My Time of Dying" is another one that'll take you on a ride!
I would pay the guys to do this song. However Jay's head might actually blow up on this one. This is in my top 3 of Zep songs. Killer, killer song.
Bonzo’s drumming on that song is to die for.
Definitely!
I was about to suggest In My Time. One of my top 5 Zep tunes, might be my favourite.
My generation had the BEST music because of the incredible talent. Always copied...never duplicated.💜
This is based on a true event - devastating floods in the late 1920s in Mississippi. it was a blues number originally recorded in 1929 by Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McCoy. Robert and Jimmy were both seeped in American blues long before Led Zeppelin was formed. Led Zepp takes traditional blues to another level. This song is also a great example of what a production genius Jimmy Page is. The sonics!!! A very very good reaction - Thank you.☮
One of the best songs of all time. Excellent reaction.
Wow… I’ve been enjoying this song for decades and have never heard the harmonica as a warning or a siren as you described it. BUT THAT IS SPOT ON! Thank you for the newly appreciated perspective.
I’ve never thought of it that way either but it does sound like a siren ✌️
Hey thanks! Sometimes I feel crazy, knowing someone else understood is cool!
@@RobSquadReactions That’s what music is supposed to do to you, there are so many places you can go inside all different kinds of music ,just depends on where you want to be.
@@jeanstrickland2445 ❤️ yes
@@jeanstrickland2445 I just posted that very comment and then found you'd beat me to it - "that's what music is supposed to do to you"!
At 5:30 Amber gets completely and totally lost in the harmonica solo. Never seen such a reaction to music by anyone like she had. Epic.
One of the most foreboding vibes of any Zep song. The sense of dread and impending doom and the total helplessness when dealing with the force of nature-like the Mighty Mississippi-is brilliantly captured in this song. You feel transported in time and you’re sitting on the levee in 1927 and realizing that you are powerless and your life is about to change forever. One of my top 3 Zep songs ever. 👍🏼❤️
You can almost feel the water..see it rise..and rise..
There's nobody like Zeppelin!! Greatest ever!
Yep, fact.
100 percent agree....pink floyd is 2nd
Believe it or not, this song dates to 1929; it's about a flood in Mississippi two years earlier. Next Stops:
Led Zeppelin, "Travelling Riverside Blues." "Ramble On," "D'yer Mak'er"
Derek and the Dominos, "Layla" (supergroup featuring Eric Clapton and Duane Allman)
Cream, "Crossroads"
Great choices.
Agree, Cream “Crossroads” from the Wheels of Fire album. I think they said later that this was when they were the most together.
The perfect way to listen to Led Zeppelin: eyes closed, moving to the music!
John Henry Bonham- was the perfect timekeeper in this song. No help from any electronics like used today. He hit hard and perfect!!
The Governor
In every song! #bonham
Sorry to contradict, but they did run the drums through an echoplex to get that echo. But that was just a small tweak and does not change the great playing. He was the perfect fit in an all-star band.
@@tonyhallen1062 It was recorded in a stairwell.
@@JG-zt5vr That was Stairway actually
"Babe I'm gonna leave you" is another awesome Zeppelin song.🔥
I'm 61 and grew up on country and Motown. Thank you for the reactions to rock! Feel like I'm catching up to the music with you guys ❤️
Led Zeppelin is one of those bands that you just can't decide which song is your favorite!!!
I know I know all led zeppelin songs are my favs.
When the Levee Breaks is one of the reasons Led Zeppelin 4 is considered to be one of the best Led albums. Every song on 4 is a masterpiece, there isn't a dog on the whole album other than Black Dog (pun intended). Back when you listened to the entire album, the order of the songs on the album was significant, for instance the song immediately preceding the heavy blues Levee is a light airy song Going to California, the contrast makes Levee even heavier.
Its been my long distance bike ride grab for 30 yrs, Nothing better than drifting along the highway on the cruiser with The Levee blowing in your ears 🙂
The capper on one of the tightest albums of all time… like you said, every track is strong in its own way in often contrasting styles. But this track brings it all to a close in such a strong way, and the last sound you’re left with is that little Page riff echoing in your head. Perfection.
Led Zepellin IV is one of the best albums period
Listening to an entire Album is sadly a thing of the past for many of the younger generations. It's more just Playlists. I miss the days of sitting in a Beanbag chair, smoking a joint in a candlelit room with headphones on and listen to an entire Vinyl Album. Every and Anyone that claims to be into to music needs to experience this at least 10X with the best records of these time periods.
Definitely was going to California following
Three (among many other) classic Zeppelin songs: "Rock and Roll" "Misty Mountain Hop" "Trampled Under Foot"
The entire Led Zepplin IV album is special. It starts with Black Dog. Side 1 ends with Stairway to Heaven. When The Levee Breaks is the finisher to the album. Loved this one my whole life.
When the levee breaks is my favorite song of theirs and it's not close lol.
Can’t really go wrong with any song on Led Zepplin IV truly awesome
@@billcourtneyguitar cope
The album was recorded at Hedley Grange. The drums were setup in a hallway with a really high ceiling. One mic was suspended from the ceiling which picked up the size of the room. They also added some reverb. The total sound is incredible.
3.13.22. Every time I hear this song I think of them recording it at Hedley grange, because we have a 4H ☘️chapter here in mid Michigan named Studley Grange, every time I see their sign during the fair every August for their food cafeteria I think of this song! L O L
Brand new drum kit as well.
Thats been debunked, the delay sound was recorded with a Binson Ecorec, not some acoustic magic
@@paulhopkins1905 Rick Beato tells the story.
Of all their songs, this is my favorite. It combines their sound with American blues.
Written and first recorded by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie in 1929 about the Great Mississippi flood of 1927.
Hey bud
@@itsmedino What's up Dino.
Zeppelin did pay homage to her a few years after her death in the early 70's.
@@oreally8605 Her name is listed with LZ members on the album.
These drums have been replicated but never duplicated. Amazing sound.Thanks guy's😃🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Amen 🙌🏼
It’s as if John Bonham said, “Ok, here’s the kick. Now you guys fill in the rest around me.”
Less than 6 min. in you're so correct@Not just LZ since of course, but even more y'all's "mix" is perfect volume as well. ;-) 8-)

This song is a journey from beginning to end. One of my top Zep songs.
Guys, I'm looking at my 60th birthday later this year. I have heard this song hundreds of times and still today I get goosebumps every time. You are right. You can get lost in this song. It is their best in my opinion.
Out of all the great tracks Zepplen recorded, this may be my favorite song.
I grew up listening to so many of the great music during the late 60s and thru the 70s! They played some songs from some other bands that they got old but I've heard this probably thousands of times and I still really get into it! Led zeppelin is the greatest rock band of all time in my opinion! Their musical talent is incredible!
Me too. The stars were definitely in alignment when these four met. Perfect stoners tune on a warm sunny day!
Happy birthday I hit 65 i n weeks
You be both this month and zep still going strong with me 😊
"Going to California" and "Battle of Evermore" on same album not so heavy but equally awesome
Great slower songs.
After you check out going to California by Led Zeppelin you should definitely listen to Amy Lee’s version of going to California her voice is ridiculous anyway I always appreciate spending time with you guys love to smiles stay blessed
This song is 100 percent a genuine eargasm.
So many great LZ songs, but this is probably my favorite. The harmonica is haunting. No band has a right to be this talented. BTW, that was a very young Robert Plant blowing on that harmonica. The drums rounded out the levee breaking, the vocals made it a reality..... the levee broke and we have no place to go as we are about to lose EVERYTHING! Defeated, fleeing for our lives. Great reaction guys,TY.
Rock is blues. Digging it as always. SMILE everyone!😃♥️🎸
This is a must react Led Zeppelin song... showcases what they do best... take a blues song, electrify it with virtuoso performances by some of the finest musicians to form a four piece band. A stone cold groove.
Very well stated!
You shook me is a must
Nailed it
Anyone who argues about the best rock band ever, has to listen to this . PERIOD !
One of the best parts of this song, and in my opinion what makes it sort of trippy, is that the line between voice and several instruments is challenged and blurred throughout. Sometimes the guitar sounds like harmonica, sometimes the harmonica sounds like voice, and sometimes you can't tell which is which. It's such an awesome song. Thank you for the reaction! Have a fantastic day, y'all!
"Fool in the Rain" is another great groove song. In fact the entire "In Through the Out Door" LP is amazing. It is a shame that Bonham died before they could take the Zep groove into the 80s and beyond. RIP Bonzo!!!
I hope that you realise how lucky you are in being able to listen to these tracks for the first time. After hearing them before, your expectations are already high. Then the needle drops, the music starts and you are taken away. I can remember saving for this album and then playing it over and over.. and the memories of the parties where this album, and so many others, became the soundtrack to my life. That was my first time, this is yours. Enjoy it :)
❤️
It was great, wasn’t it my unknown friend? The soundtracks of our youth.
@@maxsparks5183 .. we just didnt know at the time, how special it would be.
I was 15 when this came out. Me and my 2 girlfriends could not wait for this next Zepplin album. The day it was released, we bought it, took it home and threw it on the record player, back then we listened to a entire album not a single song. I remember my friend was reading the liner notes and saw there was a song on side two called Stairway to Heaven, she declared that would be her favorite song. Little did we know...
We play this one LOUD, whether at work, or in the backyard.
Bonham's extended drum rolls sound like the water thundering down. Love this song.
Amber gets so deep into the music that I grew up on - it's so great that she "gets it" and just absorbs these wonderful tracks that you are discovering. Both of your reactions are a joy for an old guy like me to see.
Two years after Hurricane Katrina, Robert Plant and Allison Krause together appeared at the New Orleans Jazz & Blues Festival and sang this song. It was sooo emotional. There wasn't a dry eye in the crowd.
How appropriate
Led Zeppelin was and is the most versatile and best band ever.
I guess queen was more versatile
But Zep in general is far better
Damn Skippy!
I love Queen but, have to say the best band ever was Led Zep. I loved them as a teenager and had all their albums. I listened to them all the time.
As a grandmother I still love Led Zepplin. And I still love their music and listen to it.
Their music is beyond just mere Rock. It is above so much
bullshit,didnt do anything original until '75 and peaked with Achillies a year later and that was it.Plants first solo effort is more original than 70% of LZ whole catalogue
Apart from Physical Graffiti & Prescence theyre catalogue overall is pretty ordinary
sure they may have improved songs with theyre renditions but they werent LZ songs in the first place they were written and performed by others
Next recommended Led Zeppelin song:
“Babe, I’m Gonna Leave You”
In that song, Jimmy Paige indulges his love for Spanish/Flamenco guitar and it is truly beautiful.
I’ll wager that it becomes your new favorite LZ song.
Zeppelin is a musical pie. It's filled with a spicy doze of blues with a thick crust of rock.
"Crying won't help ya, prayer won't do ya no good " one of the best lines in rock history
How did that one slip past us without mentioning! Thank you
Part of what makes this song so sad to me, even though it's true, it's the words of someone who has lost all hope.
One of my very favourites in rock too. Its devastating when you think about the implications.
@@atorthefightingeagle9813 Its so true tho.
"Prayin'" "prayer" loses so much of the blues feel. All in the details
So many memories of High School hanging out at my friend John's house. Sitting in a circle on his bedroom floor having a "safety meeting". Blacklights on, fishnets hanging from his ceiling. Blacklight posters of our favorite bands on the wall. Lava lamp glowing in the corner. And this album blaring from his speakers. Good times indeed.
You just stated exactly where I was as I first experienced Led Zeppelin down to the black lights and glow-in-the-dark posters !
Only my friend’s name was Vickie !
This is my favourite Zeppelin song, love that Delta Blues vibe.
I consider this the best Zep song ever. They were at the peak of their powers and the song is RELENTLESS! It is kicking ass from start to finish. You can keep Stairway (it was good when it came out but it's been played to *death* and I'm sick of it), and Kashmir (another great one, but not up to Levee), this one is Zep's crowning achievement.
Strong argument. It’s a top-fiver for sure.
Totally agree
Its one of the top ones for sure. Stairway is their best song imo but overplayed like you said but its just so good so its a shame its considered to be overplayed.
In my time of Dieng and Since I havce been loving you go with this as the trinity for me
In My Time of Dying is my brother's favorite Zep song of all time.@@MichaelCurry_1
The drums. Ask any sound engineer, this is the holy grail of drum recording, and has never been exactly re-created. Drums are really hard to record, and the room is a huge part of what's happening. Tuning the drum heads is also a huge factor, as the the heads vibrate sympathetically with every other drum head in the room. IOW, the bass drum head makes the snare drum heads vibrate in sympathy. Every part of the drum kit reacts to every other part of the kit.
True, but they also put some delay and a little reverb in the mix and it is easily re-created.
They got that sound from a stairwell!!!! Creativity at it's best!
I had read that Bonzo played it one third faster during recording then they slowed the tape down to give the drums extra boom and sustain
Binson Echorec reverb device bought by Page himself, delivered the echo!
Here's a great vid, with sound engineer Andy Johns, who recorded Led Zepp;
ua-cam.com/video/XZYDDX1DHDU/v-deo.html
Jimmy ALWAYS knew how to record drums better than anyone -he learned what not to do as a studio musician... that's not to say he didn't have a little help from Eddie Kramer and the Johns brothers, but the magic of ZEP's sound was ALWAYS Jimmy Page.
I really think Zeppelin understood the spirit of the blues more than any other "white" or British rock band. They made it their own, made it relevant in the 70s (and beyond), but really captured the original feel and mood of that great music. Blues isn't all about the guitar solos. It's a groove. Great reaction guys!!
Ummm..... let's not get carried away
1)Eric Clapton... white and British
2)SRV ...... WHITE
3)John mayall.... white and British
4) Jeff Healy..... white
5)George thorogood.... white
6)ZZ Top..... white
All of these examples "understood the spirit of the blues" better than led zepplin.. not claiming they are better musicians (some are some are not), but all of them played the blues better.
@@mikemclaughlin3306 Yeah exactly, I don't think Clapton ever really captures the spirit of the blues. Example: Clapton and BB King once did a duet at the Grammy's of the song Rock Me Baby. Clapton started out and you immediately think "rock me baby, OK it's about rocking music". Then BB sings it, swaying his hips, and you suddenly realize the song is about sex. Most blues is about sex by the way. Yes, Clapton, SRV, and Mayall are exactly the people that suck the sex, swampiness, juke joint smoke and sweat out of the blues. However I think ZZ top had a feel for it in their early work, as well as the Rolling Stones. You ever listen to Elmore James? It's definitely not about technically flashy guitar work. As Muddy Waters once said - white guys can play circles around you on guitar, but they don't know how to sing the blues.
@@eximusic good thing I don't have to believe anything you wrote.
@@mikemclaughlin3306 I know. It usually sounds crazy to white people who aren't familiar with the original Delta blues artists.
@@eximusic yeah, lol.... but I am. Ive researched, and played for 30 years. What I said was, your OPINION doesn't matter.
SO much talent in this band: Jones' brilliant bass, Robert Plant's amazing harmonica. And something that might not get mentioned enough: Jimmy Page's brilliant, brilliant work in the recording booth throughout the band's career. Can't say enough good stuff about his and the band's work in coming up with these tracks and the whole design of their albums (including cover designs etc). In the vinyl days, you'd pretty much listen to the album straight through, or at least a whole side straight through, so the sequencing of songs was important. This is the last track on their landmark LP Led Zeppelin IV. What a way to finish an album. Thank you for your reactions!
"When the Levee Breaks" is one of the best songs ever to hear on headphones. Check out Zeppelin's version of Robert Johnson's "Traveling Riverside Blues."
"When The Levee Breaks" is best heard in the round, with the bass vibrating your organs and ribs.
Traveling riverside blues is my favorite zeppelin song by far. Always loved that one!!
Definitely one of their best. Of course it’s hard to find a bad song from them
Once again, Zeppelin proves they are the most diverse rock band and every song is an adventure! Still my favorite of all time! No one even comes close! Glad you’re getting to know how blusey they really are!❤️
Led Zeppelin used a technique called "backwards echo" to create the unique sound of the drums on "When the Levee Breaks". The drum kit was set up at the bottom of Headley Grange's three story stairwell. (Swiped from Google)
That is not my quote above, but I heard Robert Plant and Jimmy Page talking about this in an interview back when they had the Page & Plant tour back around '95.
What a great reaction! It's how I still feel every time I listen to this song, and it's been 45 years of regular listening to Led Zep.
50 years, or so, later - it thrills me that someone is just diggin' this masterpiece for the first time. Amazingly, the original is around 90 years old. I think you should hear FOOL IN THE RAIN next, from LZ's album 'In Through The Out Door' - and dig the transitions.
Blues music was a major influence for Zeppelin!
You can't go wrong with any of their tracks. Arguably the best rock band of all time
@James Buckingham I like the Beatles but I'd rather listen to Led Zeppelin over the Beatles every time.
@James Buckingham, the OP did say best ROCK band. The Beatles aren’t rock. Personally I wouldn’t compare The Beatles with Led Zeppelin but with other pop. It would be more appropriate to compare Led Zeppelin with, say, Deep Purple.
This is truly their masterpiece, their most magical song ...
I've been listening to this song for 50 years. No lie. Where u bin?? Love ya, mon! Rock on. Welcome aboard.
Amber,
I'm so glad you heard the train in this song.
My great uncle was a train engineer way back when from the '40s through the '80s, starting with steam and into the diesel era. One of my first memories is of him taking me down to the shed one night. My childhood was filled with traveling by trains pulled by steam engines.
The beginning part has all of the sounds of a steam train. The huffing steam is there. The clinks and clangs of steel tracks and chains and cars bumping into each other is there. The long moaning horns and whistles and chugs and chuffs and wheels screaming into the curving tracks at speed... It is all amazingly in there. And then it all becomes a tune to rip up the heart and the singing voice to drag you along. I love this song. Thanks for reacting to it.🥰
I love the way you described it. My dad grew up right next to the train tracks and often spoke of the train whistle, that’s instantly what I thought of. The memories you spoke of sound beautiful. Thank you for sharing your story with me ~ Amber
@@RobSquadReactions, you're welcome. Thank you for responding.
When you get the chance, take the kids on train rides.
Especially take them to stand near some tracks to watch as trains go by.
The size and thunder of the sounds and ground vibrations blowing by will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
Have them do the fist pulling down by the head motion for the engineer to blow his whistle and see if he does it for them. That is every kids jaw dropping moment. 😁
@@RobSquadReactions I forgot to mention the smell of burning coal smoke and the creosote... Memories. Lol!
@@bosgaurus1 my grandma took me on an Amtrak, just down to Texas to see a movie. I still remember it. Thank you for reminding me of this experience. I’m going to make it a point for our children to experience the same.
@@RobSquadReactions 😇
You two are my favorite reactors. I love how ya'll get lost in the song. It's also so nice to see your generation (you two) appreciating and preserving my generation's music. Led Zeppelin was a band I grew up listening to all the way back in the 1970's. I'm 56 years old now, and still ROCK to the Zepp!
❤️
@@RobSquadReactions please react to at least one Zeppelin song a week. "Fool in the Rain" will be a great choice!!! 👍
Ditto
56??? You're just a puppy.... I'm 70 and feel the same way.
This song was designed to keep growing and swirling with layer upon layer. Zeppelin was just so amazing.
You guys have to Love this song. close your eyes
If you two didn't absolutely fall in love with this song it would have broken my heart a little bit. I have been madly in love with this song for about 35 years. One of the first songs that showed me that music could be completely transcendent. For something completely different, you should try Fool in the Rain next. You will both fall in love with that one too. Promise.
Transcendent is the word all right.
"Fool in the Rain" great choice!!! 👍
When debating who the best rock drummer is, it normally comes down to Peart vs Bonham. My vote ALWAYS goes to John. I use "Achilles Last Stand" and in purpose contraction, "Fool In The Rain" to win the debate.
Bet you like me NEVER imagined 35 yrs later kids be watching it like this and feeling the same as us.
Best concert ever was Led Zep O2. wished seen them earlier. no excuses. I was into More Heavy Metal in the 70s like Deep Purple etc.
Also saw Black Sabbath and Motörhead Hard Rock Calling a few years ago. they were magnificent both bands. Think Lemmy passed on soon after.
Yes! Fool In The Rain! Love it!
Damn, you just can't go wrong with LZ. For your next dive, I'd recommend "Ramble On", "D'yer Maker", "The Ocean", and "Over the Hills and Far Away." "Ramble On" is awesome because it makes references to Lord of the Rings!
Ramble on should be next...spectacular!
I've always thought it sounded like a Celtic folk ballad.
All the above
We used to call "D'yer Maker" the vowel song. As for Lord Of The Rings, might as well throw in "Misty Mountain Hop"
You can't go wrong with any Zep! They were unbreakable and unbelievable, always.
You know what I love watching about you two? You get so caught up in the music that it reminds me to do the same thing every now and again. I spend so much time with music on in the background that I forget that every once in a while, I should just close my eyes and let the sound wash over me. This song has groove and funk to spare, and it's incredibly easy to get lost in. It's one of my absolute favorite Zeppelin tunes.
Every song on 4 is a hit. This is my favorite song off the album. I remember listening to it on vinyl for the first time with my ex a little over a year ago. It was an amazing experience
You two are just the BEST
Its impossible for me to pick a best zepplin song its always the one im listening to
Led Zeppelin’s music catalog contains every form of music rock can take…in my opinion they’re the G.O.A.T.s of Rock…
Absolutely fantastic band, but there has been so much innovation, experimentation and development in rock music since them that it's a bit ridiculous to say they contain it all. They have inumerable contemporaries doing stuff they never did too.
Yes!!! Zeppelin is so good!!🤘🔥
I love this song. I heard it when I was 7 years old, this album changed my life. This song feels like a train rolli’n through New Orleans befor a hurricane!
Doesn't get any better than this!
Anyone that doesn’t like Led Zeppelin’s music is not a friend of mine.. lol thanks for reacting to this.
Actually Terry, I'd rather listen to John Lee Hooker, Albert King & Howlin' Wolf. Zep's up there when I need some Blues though . . .
@@jailaye6929 yes definitely they were greats. Love them also.
Albums I and II are filled with this kind of bluesy stuff. A must for any fan.
You shook me has to be my favourite
Magicians, food for the soul
You guys are officially, authentic rock n rollers, now. 😎
This album is one of their best. "Battle of Evermore" features guest artist Sandy Denny from Fairport Convention.
They should react to Matty Groves or Tam Lin.
She was also with the Strawbs for a little while but that’s a hole that few reactors will jump into.
This album is absolutely their best, by a pretty good margin. Their only true masterpiece album. The others -- "Coda" excepted -- have some great material but also flaws. This album is flawless.
Sandy Denny.. Buried at Putney Vale Cemetery... Just a simple grave stone.. Tragic death.
It's hard to pick just one, but I really think this is my favourite Led Zeppelin song. Such a freakin JAM!
Your views are through the roof with these Rockstars. Hats off and respect to The Mighty Zep.
Yes it sounds like a slow moving train♥️🎼🚂
What a classic. One of the most sampled drum sounds of all time.
Rhymin and Stealin by the Beastie Boys was prob the most famous. I had been listening to Zep long before I heard that song and was like Woah! DOPE!
This is the best song that LZ ever did. And to this day it is still fresh. And still sounds apocalyptic.
Must watch "Since I've been loving you"...I get goose bumps every time I hear it...by far one of their best songs IMO
This song was first recorded in 1929 by Memphis Minnie and Kansas City Joe. It's about the great Mississippi Flood of 1927. This and the Galveston flood of 1900 were the greatest natural catastrophes ever in the country. States from Texas to Illinois were affected. Arkansas, Mississippi, and Louisiana suffered the most. It took three years for the waters to fully subside.
And Zep, especially Bonzo's amazing drumming, does it justice. And then some.
This song is a classic among classics!!! Every version of it is awesome, from the original, to this one, and even the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
Definitely in the Top 5 Zeppelin songs. Man, I could recommend just about the entire Led Zeppelin catalog. Page and Plant grew up on the blues music of the 30s, 40s, and 50s -- Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, Howlin' Wolf, etc. If you're looking for more bluesy Zeppelin, try "The Lemon Song", "Traveling Riverside Blues" and just about the whole first album.
Zeppelin, though, was so diverse every album was unique. Other great songs "Fool in the Rain", "Achilles Last Stand", "Trampled Under Foot", "The Rover", "The Song Remains the Same", "The Ocean"....Like I said, I could list the entire catalog. Glad you enjoyed this one. Classic.
This is probably my favorite Led song with “In my time of dying” number 2! Led Zeppelin is my all time favorite band and no one else is close! Keep up the great work Rob Squad!
“When I think of Led Zeppelin I don’t think of blues”
Said no one EVER lol. You guys made my day :)
Since I’ve Ben loving you I’d a sick blues song
I truly hope you check out 'The Rain Song" by Led Zeppelin. Not only kind of trippy, but beautiful orchestration, along with a mix of acoustic and electric guitar and as usual Robert Plant's voice is on point. "Tangerine" is another good one.
Yes please! Two of my faves from LZ.
Led Zepplin the early pioneers of rock (from England), got a lot of thier early influence from american blues
Led Zeppelin is pure blues rock. As good as it gets. Sittin in the sun in the front yard of my over 55 community trying NOT to rock out. There is a documentary, It Might Get Loud". Fascinating. The story of the "Levee" drums is included. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND to fans of blues rock guitar. 3 generations of legends. You WILL thank me.
Sittin in a hospital bed watching Katrina wreck New Orleans. This song thundering in my brain. Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah...
I'm so happy that you guys got to experience such an amazing song. This is actually an old song re-imagined but it makes you feel good listening to Bonzo's drumming and Plant's voice along with Jimmy's imaginative guitars and JPJ doing everything else.
