You guys gotta get back to Clutch. Regulator was a poor choice. Worm Drink, Army of Bono, X Ray Vision, The Mob Goes Wild, Cypress Grove, Subtle Hustle, etc.
You Shook Me is pretty good as well
I'm pretty sure Black Dog is on just about everyone's playlist, or gets there eventually.
Have you guys done Stairway to Heaven yet?
Black Dog = Working Man...Introduction songs to Rush and Led Zeppelin
You can hear slightly before every verse, John Bonham clicks his drumsticks.
You want Zepplin blue’s? Listen to… Since Ive been loving you. Epic
Yes!!!!!
Fire!
“Since I’ve Been Loving You” is essential listening for all 👂💜
I agree. Especially the live version from 'The Song Remains the Same.'
May be in my top two zeppelin songs
What Led Zeppelin did between 69 and 79 can never be duplicated again. Their music will forever be timeless.
At one time all of their albums were in the charts and saved the record industry according to those in the know.
It was definitely a great run.
*68
You think
They did do a lot of great covers of other people's music.
In My Time of Dying - One of their greatest blues-oriented songs, IMO.
Oh hell yeah. In My Time of Dying they would like. But that live version of Since I’ve Been Loving You…
also the last song chris cornell sang live before he passed. been my personal favorite zep song for over a decade.
I second this.
heelllll yes! You Will LOVE it
As a drummer since 16 years of age in 1983 I can assure you that the song In My Time of dying is the hardest Led Zeppelin song to play on the drums.
One of the most recognizable and iconic guitar riffs of all time. A true classic.
My favorite Zeppelin tune is, "10 Years Gone" off their Physical Graffiti album. "Kashmir" is also on that album. Thanks for the reaction guys. Have a great day!
Ten years gone is one of the top 5 all time greatest songs in music.
Great song, probably my favorite LZ song as well
Also "WHAT IS AND WHAT SHOULD NEVER BE"
@@2869may one of my favorites to play on guitar
Favorite Zeppelin album!
Underrated Zeppelin track you need to here is “How Many More Times” it’s bluesy, funky, and all around groovy
I second that tune.
My favorite song ever from Zeppelin.
Omg. My Top 2. Top 3 at worst. JPJ on bass ! Man he was underrsted too.
Yes! That's a great song too.....LZ is a brilliant band.
Great song
Heartbreaker, The Ocean, Livin Lovin Maid (She's Just a Woman), Ramble On, You Shook Me, How Many More Times, Rock and Roll, Communication Breakdown, What Is And What Should Never Be, Bering It On Home... all fantastic Zeppelin songs that are worthy of redemption!!!
This is the list. None of these were in the marathon.
The Ocean IMO is their best song. Can't ever hear that one enough!
There is a reason John Bonham is considered one of the greatest Rock/ blues drummers. His ability to lay back and keep the beat behind the riff, and simultaneously bring power into the slow groove was ground breaking at the time.
He’s the goat, no doubt!
Knowing nothing about drumming, I always thought Bonzo was the background bass singer to Plant!
For Led Zeppelin Blues “Since I’ve been loving you” is the go to. Also the rest of their first album does that well too
Your time is gonna come and how many more times to note
Right on. Just made the same suggestion in my own comment before seeing yours.
"I Can't Quit You Babe" too
@@RDembowski The Coda version
Definitely. Find the MSG live video. Amazing.
This...
Gallow's Pole is one of those songs you need the Leadbelly background to appreciate
One of the greatest blues songs ever written is “since I’ve been loving you” by zeppelin. They were so creative and diversified and original it can be a bit overwhelming when you first get into them. Arguably the greatest band ever.
Led Zeppelin are much more than your average blues rock band. A dive into their discography is like opening a chocolate box full of musical styles and influences all crafted by talented musicians at the top of their game.
This sounds like a musical Forest Gump
@@drimastermaster1911 you never knew what you were gon get
"WHAT IS AND WHAT SHOULD NEVER BE", "TEN YEARS GONE", "BABE I'M GONNA LEAVE YOU"
Such a slippery, heavy groove. Legendary for being difficult to play (as Slash attests to), because the guitar riff goes into a different time signature, while the drums stay in 4/4. Outro solo is one of my favorites ever, so hooky, yet so raw...
I have always felt that that guitar lead-in had a recorded f-up towards the end there, is that the change in time signatures? , because it has always felt jarring to me...
@@tonyfranco5218 I think they meant for it to be jarring. The changing in time signatures is what makes it feel a bit floaty sometimes but makes it feel like locking in even more when they end up together again :)
Bonham also plays well behind the beat on those parts adding another layer of complexity.
This was the first song my old rock band in school ever played. Listening back to the original, I have NO idea why we thought we could play it!
This is one of those songs where the bass follows the guitar instead of staying in the pocket with Bonham. Bonham makes it work. He can handle the backbeat by himself.
Pretty sure Page fluctuates between 9/8 and moves a half step to 10/8 (5/4) whilst Bonham sticks with 4/4, and then they come together for a punch on the cymbal.
Pretty good stuff.
When this song came out there was nothing bigger. It got played on the radio a zillion times
still does
The British were listening to Blues before us and they had their interpretation and changed our music forever. Remember they were very young and doing something that had never been done. Tough being one of the first.
Most of the song is in 4/4 but during the transition Bonham continues the 4/4 while Jones and Page are playing 5/4, which causes a tension in the groove that at the time was unique for LZ in Rock music. It's something you hear a lot more of in Jazz.
The song is in 7/8 time. Bonham plays a 4/4 groove the entire song.
Dunno about that. 6 months earlier, Yes were doing something similar in Perpetual Change ua-cam.com/video/OZ5av777ANk/v-deo.html
What about the other ones?
I thought that’s what was going on. It’s such an interesting change up.
Listen to “Since I’ve been loving you” that’s some great blues, on a different note, “Achilles last Stand” awesome song. Great as always guys 👍🏽
"WHAT IS AND WHAT SHOULD NEVER BE"
Those are my 2 fav Zeppelin songs of all time. And I love them all.
I've been begging them to do Since I've Been Loving You
@@chuckobscure5622 Good God me too!!!!!! It’s so bluesy, I know they will love it. Why aren’t they listening to us?
My two favourite Zep songs
It was such a unique groove at the time. This song put Led Zeppelin on the map for me as a kid. The whole 4 album was great, but the other fav for me is, "When the Levy Breaks"
They did that one already
Have you seen the Zepparella version? I think I like it more than the original.
That unique groove is for ANY time
As a white guy in 1977 i had two good friends in high school that were black. And we listened everything from Earth Wind and Fire. To progressive jazz like Return to Forever with Staley Clark, Chick Coria. And Al di meola. But Zeppelin was there favorite band in the world and it was mine also. And i saw them live twice in 77. And one of those times were with my two black friends. And when i think about those two guys all these years later. They remind me of the two of you. Zeppelin is one of the best bands to ever exist.
Ryan is right..This is the song you should introduce anyone to Led Zeppelin with!!!!
Yeah, okay…but I’m sticking with Immigrant’s Song.
@@stantheman9072 Immigrant
@@deazl666 whatever
I still think Rock and Roll, Immigrant Song, or Kashmir are better entry points for Zeppelin.
When the Levy breaks
Some of Zeppelin’s most underrated songs imo are “Hey Hey What can I do” and “The Wanton Song’. Both are very different from each other but are incredibly fun to listen to.
I used the former on a short skate video I made in high school. I quickly learned about copyright claims lol.
You might be the only person I’ve ever seen shout out “Hey Hey What Can I Do?” Such an underrated track.
The Wanton song is phenomenal. Love Jimmy and Bonzos work on that song. They are all such phenomenal musicians. John Paul Jones work on the keys are great. I can honestly say everything I have hear from this band is gold. I have been listening to them along with the Beatles for over 40 yrs. Zep and the Beatles are my Top two bands
"Since I've been loving you" is a song that if you haven't done a reaction to it, you should, pronto! An absolutely phenomenal track in every way.
I HIGHLY recommend Led Zeppelin's Fool in the Rain. Groovy as hell.
Probably my favorite song!
Hey guys, you really need to do “Since I’ve been loving you”. That’s the traditional “true blues” Zeppelin song that that you’re looking for.
And When The Levee Breaks
The list is loooong of great Led Zeppelin tunes. “Since I’ve been loving you” (studio version) is at the pinnacle of all of them.
The studio version is so weak. Try the 'badge holders version from '77
sorry to do this but “squeaky kick pedal” once you hear it, you can never un-hear it.
I agree with the original post. I appreciate the spontaneity and energy of the live tracks but the studio version is fabulous and the sound quality is far, far superior. 45 year old live recordings have horrendous sound quality and suffer greatly in dynamics as a result. Those are (typically) for hardcore fans that want to mix it up; they’re not what you use to introduce someone to a song that has major dynamic shifts.
Side note, this is also my favorite Zep tune to play on guitar.
@@doofinator4285 Personally, I prefer the original recording than most live versions. It’s what the artist had in mind once they recorded it, mixed it, soundproofed it and decided to release it. There are a few exceptions, like anything in “Frampton Comes Alive” and several Cheap Trick’s songs in “Live in Budokan”. Elton John’s “Benny and the Jets” was recorded as if it were live, but it was not, and it came out perfect.
@@trespatines8698 agree completely
Over the hills and far away, kashmir, ramble on, heartbreaker, all of my love is what you need as an introduction to Zeppelin
Lord- thank you for making me a metal head. And I'm 60. I'm glad you young folks love classic metal and punk.
"I should want an emotional response listening to music." Best reaction ever, I totally agree. I'm glad you did get that emotional response with this song. Excellent video and analysis guys!
John Paul Jones wrote the riff that shook the world.
He writes so much. He was the most diverse talent wise. Love his guitar playing on "going to california"
@@Dime_time333 actually, Page played the guitar on GtC, Jones played mandolin. it was the Battle of Evermore on which Jones played guitar and Page did mandolin! :)
"The Ocean" on Houses of the Holy (album version) is one of Led Zeppelin's best songs for someone who just wants to hear them rock and not do an experimental thing, although it has a little bit of a different section at the end.
Indeed, the main riff has a grove feel ina 7/8 time measure then staight groove in 4/4 during the verse. Followed in the end with a swing feel with doo-wop vocals.
Working on learning that song now. I learned the main riff to this song by ear dicking around 1 day. Still haven't learned the rest lol.
@@Dime_time333 i heard it is very fun to play. is it ?
@@Nichwar19 which one?
@@Dime_time333 the ocean
Zeppelin is groovy because they appreciated and digested early black blues and soul. Rock bands today have lost that, " i don't know what I've been told, today's rock bands ain't got no soul"!!
Question is why haven't Lost in Vegas Reacted to any classic Blues?
Muddy Waters - Mannish Boy
Try ‘since I’ve been loving you’ and ‘ when the levee breaks’ and for some stunning acoustic sounds ‘going to California.’
Feel like 'The Ocean' would be right up yall's alley
YES!! Definitely among my top 5 favorites from LZ, another song with a really cool groove to it.
yep. The Ocean is my fav. They could definitely enjoy it.
"Experimental Blues", is a good analysis here. The band were a melting pot of blues and soul influences that under the 4 of them playing and amplifying it all together created lots of different things that formed the templates of Heavy rock itself.
You need to hear LZ's "Since I've Been Loving You" -- perhaps the greatest Rock/Blues song -- that song is drenched in SOUL
For ME personally, if someone walked up and asked. "What is Rock and Roll." Zep is it for me.
AC/DC would like to have a word with you
@@EliasTsakmakis AC/DC - Some of the best R&R grooves and rhythm sections around, but Zep still does it for me.
@@wallhome464 love them both, don't get me wrong, but i find Zeppelin too technical at points and actually prefer their blues. AC/DC's simplicity though is ultra effective, and if you count in their whole posture, especially with Scot makes the ultimate RnR experience. totally different, both landmarks, comes down to taste.
One of the greatest, sexiest guitar riff.
Ryan's comment about the emotional response is so true; not just about music, but art in general!
Since I've been loving you is an incredible Led Zepplin blues song, the guitar solo is the bluesiest guitar solo I've ever heard
Any band has their ups and downs when it comes to songs, I still think Zep is up their with some of the greatest bands in music
So true.
There are some Stones songs, Zepplin, Beatles, Bowie, Van Halen, whatever, that even if you are fan, they just don't connect. The all have songs that fall flat.
Just like great baseball players don't hit a homerun every time at bat. Neither do bands. Even the greats.
They are at the TOP,with bootleg board albums they have sold appr 500 million.
This may be my favorite song of all time, and it’s most definitely top 5 rock song of all time, good job guys 👍🏾
I haven't checked out your Led Zeppelin play list yet, but a song that I would strongly recommend is "Since I've Been Loving You". I really liked your analysis of "Black Dog", and I thought your perspective on the band as blues posers was valid and insightful. That's why I'd love to get your reaction to "Since I've Been Loving You". It is a straightforward slow blues that to my ears really has the passion in both the vocals and instrumentation to be classified as the real deal. Great reaction, thanks!
"Ramble On" and "Misty Mountain Hop" will get your groove on.
Also Achilles Last Stand is 🔥👍💯Banger/Playlist.... For Both of you!!!
If you want to hear how Led Zeppelin does the blues, you've got to react to Since I've Been Loving you studio version.
I kinda “lost” you guys for a year or so, (circumstances)you had a quarter million back then. But oh my my friends look at you now. congratulations both of you. I’m back on the ride again and I can’t wait to check out your library you developed over this time.
Congratulations on your success and I hope he keeps going.
Thank you! You guys are appreciated. Love your reviews
bebe I'm gonna leave you!!!! second favorite song
This is the album opener, and since you mentioned it "When the Levee Breaks" is the album closer. This album also contains their biggest song of all time, which customers are banned from playing at guitar stores 8-P
The forbidden riff...
Denied
is that song free Bird.
My favorite reaction guys hear my favorite all-time tune. Awesome! Totally respect your views and thoughts, and LOVE that you guys did this.
This album 4, is a friggin masterpiece. It has Stairway to Heaven. They changed rock with this album.
In My Time of Dying (for Heavy Blues)
Since I’ve Been Loving You (for Traditional Blues)
Interesting that you guys would say that about Robert’s “convincingness” as a blues singer. I grew up on blues as well way before bands like this opened the doors to me on rock. But of all the white British blues rock bands, to me Robert was one of the only ones that had that level of soul to me. I always considered him to be the male equivalent of Janis Joplin.
Also, saying “more of this please” with zeppelin is kinda tricky. Every single track of theirs has a different feel and atmosphere. No two songs are alike.
Heartbreaker is another one that would fit into what they're talking about here. They have a good handful of groovy tracks.
I agree on the variety and diversity of Zeppelin's music. To me, that's a big part of the greatness of the band. They *never* did just one thing, musically, and they did it *all* well. I love a softer, slower track like "The Rain Song," just as much as the loud, heavy songs like "Black Dog." On white British blues singers, I do love Robert Plant, but Steve Marriot of Humble Pie is also up there and *so* soulful!
@@christianman73 so funny I originally mentioned Marriott in my comment in addition to Plant, but took it out. 100% agree.
@@christianman73Steve Marriott was Page’s first choice as vocalist for Zeppelin. That is until Page was threatened with bodily harm by Marriot’s manager if he continued in his pursuit of his client.
Prince was quoted that LZ had a different color to each song, so you're on the mark there, zosomoso.
The Wanton Song is probably their most underrated track. It is so good.
Now this is a lunch break. Sandwich, Gatorade, Lost in Vegas and Led Zepplin. What more could I ask for?
For me part of what makes the continuation of the groove after the call and response leading into the chorus so satisfying is how it plays in contrast to the verse. Great reaction as always!
Please do "In My Time of Dying" live at Earls Court, 1975; you'll love it!
So good!
I don't think it's their style, since it's a long and "slow" tune. I feel they're more into the groovy ones
I don't like Zeppelin, but give yall the thumbs up and will watch the video. I know Zep is good, but in my life, I feel like I heard them enough years ago.
So glad you got back to the Led ❤️
If you want something that really ROCKS listen to in my time of dying.
“Since I’ve Been Loving You” should be next if you want them at their best. Bluesiest song they own. If you can find the MSG live performance, react to that.
You should checkout "In The Light", such a good track from their Physical Graffiti album.
One of my favorites!
I love the syncopated rhythm between Page and Bonham, right before the OH Yeah, Oh Yeah
1st; this is one of the hardest riffs to play in the guitar, it does not seems so, but it is! 2nd; this reminds me of sunday lazy afternoons with my old man, drinking some Cube Libre, and listening to this LP.
You guys would love "The Ocean" and "Over the Hills and Far Away" by Led Zeppelin. Both are real groovy.
"Dancin' Days" is such a classic, easy to listen to and jam to. I also loved the Stone Temple Pilots version as well. Just a good song all around. "The Battle of Evermore" is also fantastic, and Heart made it even better, their rendition hits hard.
Glad you guys are still doing music reactions and are open to all genres. Would love to hear your reactions to Stabbing Westward's newer single, "Dead & Gone", just a suggestion. Bet you will love that one. Amazing song.
Led Zeppelin was so versatile, they have a lot of songs that have a driving groove element but they also could cover so many other genres of music of the time.
About 25yrs ago I decided if I’m trapped on a deserted island, u get 1 album to choose. For me it’s Led Zeppelin II, and I have not changed my mind.
You want blues George? Please listen to Since I've Been Loving You. I guarantee you that it will be a playlist staylist song for both you and Ryan. The song oozes emotion and that's what both you lads like in music. Cheers for doing Black Dog!
I'm a black Zeppelin fan. I love the bluezy songs they do too. Yeah "Bring it on home" is a song yall would love. I guarantee it. Its one of my favorites. Jimmy Page eats that song up!
Bring It On Home kicks ass!!
@@BBaldwin 1000%. Its that old blues sound with the harmonica for me lol
Y'all are a straight riot;-). I love the analysis of the song. I was pretty young when I first heard this, it wasn't until my teen years, that I'd understand it. Keep rocking LZ and I'll be checking you out...peace ✌
Hey Hey What Can I Do? is an amazing one that seems to have gained some real popularity over the last 10 years
Now you need to check out the album from Led Zeppelin called presence either nobody's fault but mine or Achilles Last Stand are both killer songs
Achilles Last Stand 4 Sure!
N n n n n n no no nooooooooooo
Body's fault but mine!
They already did Achilles last stand
Both songs are killer
Nobody's Fault but Mine is a masterpiece!
Story goes: while recording this album/track-a stray (black) dog was hanging around the studio….& the rest is history.
My dad has been playing led zep, Lynard skynard, ccr, and so mannnny other rock bands of that era since before I was born and they’re still my favourites, and my entire music taste reaches back to the 50’s because of my dad 😊 I’m so effing stoked to see other people appreciating these artists, and I feel very special and sometimes a little rare as a 90’s baby to know these artists inside out 🥰
I love Led Zeppelin and this is my favorite of their albums. Until today, I had never heard that it was not real blues, but you are spot-on, and a really succinct observation!!!! I dont think it changes my liking it, I knew it was a jazz/blues inspired rock band, but it completely connected because sometimes I will hear someone sing, and it full-on does the lump in the throat, and raises the hair on your arms, and thats giving it everything you have, singing from the heart like you were discussing. Jennifer Hudson, Tom Jones, Aretha Franklin, these are the first people that come to mind for me that have that amazing sincerity. I started watching your channel because I enjoyed your discovery of music I grew up with and love. It just flipped for me because your insights are helping me understand something I thought I already knew. Thank you.
Fool in the Rain next please!!!
Love you are revisiting them!!!
I couldn't agree more, I think the unique drum patterns and divergent style of Fool in the Rain would really play well with the Lost in Vegas crew...
Nah. That album struck out.
For 50 years I hear the upbeat as the downbeat and I can’t un-hear it LOL!!! Am I alone on that one? Still one of my favorites!
same. that one throws me every single time.
yeah even as a drummer I never got it for decades, until I finally sat down with the drum chart and figured out where his lead-in to the 4/4 meter was, lol.
I had a similar problem with Spirits in the Material World by the Police... the hi-hat accented + synth motif starts on the UP beat of the 1 of each measure (ska style), so it always threw me off by an eigth note until the chorus comes in with 4 on the floor. I always grimace my face concentrating on counting the correct quarter notes during the verses.
The only way I finally got it right was by listening to the Tony Levin Band live instrumental of Black Dog, it was slowed down and all the Bonham extra hits weren’t in. Easier to follow. Zep’s How the West Was Won has the live version that is also a bit easier to follow.
*This* is the song that turned me on to Zeppelin as a young boy many decades ago, playing it on the jukebox at my favourite greasy spoon over and over with quarters I could not afford...
Nice video! My favorite little tidbit about this song is that you can hear Bonham click them in on many sections of the call and response. So cool.
Down by the Seaside for a more laid back groove from them. One of my favorites from Zep.
I love that song because I imagine Jimmy Paige loves it, his favorite song is The Rumble and Down by the Seaside has a really similar guitar reverb/vibrato so I imagjne he has fun playing it.
IMHO if you want something with a HEAVY groove that I think you guys will love, you need to listen to The Ocean by Led Zepplin.
I think this is your best commentary on music in general that I've heard from y'all. And I agree 100%
This is one of my favorite songs and albums. Misty Mountain Hop is another favorite.
Glad you're into No Quarter, I think it's one of the hidden gems of Zep and doesn't get enough love (except maybe by musicians). Definitely catch a listen to the Song remains the same version of it, the leads are absolutely super on that (personally prefer the album to the movie, but if you're into it, listen to both!)
They actually wrote this song themselves. They should get a double writing credit for that.
Since Ive Been Loving You is one of their best songs
i really like what you both had to say on this. and i think both are right about the effect music has on different people
Drummer is playing in a way that gets out of time and back in time with what the rest of the band is doing. They could play this live but they usually changed it a little to make it easier to play.
In jazz there is something called a turnaround. This song has a turnaround but the drummer plays like there isn't. It can throw your head a little for a loop. It's one of those songs where your head wants to be-bop, but the drummer is making it bop-bop.
Do “Bring it on home”, it’s a fkin JAM. Also highly recommend “How many more times” which predated Black Sabbath but sums up their signature sound in one song.
"How Many More Times" summed up Sabbath's sound? Nope. It's a heavy blues rock song a la Cream, sure, but it doesn't have the malice and darkness that tipped Sabbath into full-on metal and doesn't come anywhere close to summing them up.
👆🏻
I'd say Dazed and Confused is more of a proto-metal/Sabbath precursor
@@chuckobscure5622 Agreed, although even that's still basically a love song. The riffs are proto-doom though.
@@aldersmoke1 I changed my post from saying “entire” to “signature”. Obviously the song doesn’t cover everything but it does sum up the majority of their signature style. It has a big heavy hitting main riff and you need to listen to it again if you think it doesn’t have a looming dark feel to it during the bridge. It goes quiet and eerie during “I was a young man I couldn’t resist.” And “Call me the hunter, that’s my name”. I don’t think Iommi would have the sound he had without this first Led Zeppelin Album. Paranoid is literally stolen from Dazed and Confused, another song with a looming doom and gloom feel to it, maybe not lyrically, but definitely musically.
How Many More Times-My favorite Led Zepp song
Since Ive been loving you! Live from '73. Only way to witness Led Zeppelin magic is live!
Random title. A dog kept hanging around the band in rhe studio.
Led é Led né pai? Outro nível 🔥🎸
Just a nasty, groovy song!!! Perfectly said. My all time favorite Zep song. Thanks for doing it!!!
The first time I heard this song, it was on the FM radio in the car right after it was released. It totally changed my perspective of rock music. Never heard anything like it before!
MY MOM WHOM DIED 3 YEARS AGO (94 YEARS OLD) LOVED THIS SONG. SHE ALWAYS SAID : HE SENT CHILLS DOWN HER SPINE.. MAKES ME THINK OF MY MOM. GOOD SONG...
I've always likes "You Shook Me" from 1st album.
I love you brothers! I’ve been subscribe to your channel for a few years now! God Bless 🤘
Love you guys. Always make me smile.
