    “Jason Bonham, son of the late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, played drums. As the song progresses, back-up singers, a string section and the Joyce Garrett Youth Choir come onstage.The bowler hats on Bonham and the singers, were meant as a tribute to John Bonham, who passed away in 1980.”
    The President and First Lady, fellow honoree David Letterman, Jack Black, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and a visibly moved Robert Plant watched. The performers got a well-deserved standing ovation at the end.”

  • @Flickymcbean825
    @Flickymcbean825 4 місяці тому +2

    Jason’s appearance was kept a secret from Robert, who’d asked him to be there at the honours ceremony. He had to lie and say he couldn’t make it which was a source of discontent with Robert. So when he was introduced on stage it was an extra special moment for the band, particularly Robert who really wanted him there.

    I absolutely refused to listen to this cover for a long time! I'm a huge fan of both Zeppelin and Heart! It's my opinion that there are certain songs that just should not be covered and Stairway to Heaven is absolutely one of them. I've heard many covers and sadly, they were epic fails! I didn't want to hear Heart fail at their attempt! I was chuckling at my own ignorance as I was texting the previous sentence! This was absolute perfection! The solo was not Page, but the dude killed it! Could you imagine the pressure on that guy to perform that solo with perfection? The spotlight is on you and so are the eyes of Jimmy Page!

    • @turquoise770

      I know, Ann and Nancy did it so well that it sounded like a Heart classic, but I learned in the comments section that they started out back in the 70s covering Zeppelin tunes (which is why she sings it to perfection and makes it her own), plus they had the special blessing of Led Zeppelin to cover it here, although they didn't know John Bonham's son Jason would be playing his father's part on drums.

    I'm only halfway through the video, but in case you don't realise or say further on in the video, the drummer is Jason Bonham who is John's Son. John, the original drummer, died which was what made the band split up. So, in a way it's a double tribute to them and to Jason's dad. Absolutely beautiful tribute.

    This tribute performance in honor of Led Zeppelin- absolutely fantastic! At the beginning, the drummer Jason Bonham was introduced as the son of the late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, but it hasn't showen on this video. The end when Jason Bonham and Robert Plant acknowledge each other with hands over their hearts was touching.

    Just caught your reqction to this excellent tribute.
    As for the guitar player and solo: not only must you be talented and accomplished enough to play this solo flawlessly, you have to have nerves of fun steel to perform it in front of Page himself!
    If.Page is a rock god, then this man is a prophet.

    It was Kimmel at 5:20. The same night Led Zeppelin was honored, Dave Letterman was honored, so he was there for Letterman's presentation.

    Ann & Nancy Wilson have been covering Led Zeppelin tunes since their heyday ( 1976 ) The Kennedy Center Honors are an appreciation show honoring individuals in the arts from all aspects of art ; music , acting , broadway , etc.) The drummer is Jason Bonham , son of original drummer , John Bonham . Heart was chosen to perform this closing number , because no one covers LZ like Ann & Nancy Wilson . Barack Obama was the president when this was televised . Tradition is every presidential tenure is suppose to have The Kennedy Center Honors , not sure if that's the case anymore .
    I encourage you to listen to Heart's early material ( 1976 - 1980 ) , and you will see a lot of simarities between Heart and Led Zeppelin .

    Ann Wilson was 62 and Nancy Wilson was 58. There were some verses cut because others performed LZ songs ahead of Heart. The Foo Fighters, Kid Rock and Kenny Kravitz. Others were also honored that night, like David Letterman, which is why you saw Jimmy Kimmel and his wife. President Obama and Michelle were there too.

    The Kennedy Center Honors happen every year, honoring music of all types for their life long achievments.The current President of that year is always invited to attend. The drummer is John Bonham's son Jason Bonham. What a great honor for him to step in and play his Dad's part in the song. He sent his love up to Led Zep right after the performance.

    Great performance...and Ann Wilson was 62yr at the time of this. The Kennedy Center Honors is a lifetime achievement recognition in the Arts, be it music, acting, etc..it is attended by other artists from across the spectrum and is normally attended by the President and First Lady as well, very black tie event

    Tremendous tribute by Heart, especially under the circumstances. If you like them and of course, Led Zeppelin,have I got a band for you. From the 1970s try UFO, a pioneering British hard rock/heavy metal hybrid that took off after hiring German guitarist Michael Schemer away from the Scorpions. Their 5 studio albums from1974 - 1978 are a blueprint for a generation of hard rockers and metal heads and are highly underrated. They have one of the best Live albums ever, Strangers In the Night Live, with killer solos and amazing sound and production, many bands like Iron Maiden and Dec Leopard cite them as a prime influence. From the live album, try the definitive versions of Light Out, Love to Love and Rock Bottom. I guarantee this band will freak you out and you will wonder where they were all you life, sadly, not often on commercial radio. Rock On and Enjoy! 🎸

    The Kennedy Center is in Washington DC and was established to honor both President John F. Kennedy and each year they honor 5 or 6 individuals or groups involved in the performing arts. The President is always invited (though Trump declined all four years) and President Obama never missed one. Heart is led by Ann Wilson (vocals) and Nancy Wilson (guitar and backing vocals mostly.) And the drummer was Jason Bonham, son of Led Zep's original drummer, John Bonham who died in 1980 of alcohol poisoning leading to choking to death on his own vomit. (Yeah, it's disgusting, but it's also more common than people think.

  • @josephbishop3590

    Tom.... terrific reaction....
    The drummer nailed it for sure!!
    The drummer is Jason Bonham. The son of the late John Bonham, drummer for LZ.
    The hat he was wearing is tribute to John.
    Many years ago, Heart toured with LZ and play a bunch of Zeppelin on their tours to this day.
    They're big fans.
    The tears were probably a combination of several things... the appreciation of having Jason drumming and having their friends, Ann and Nancy pay tribute with THIS SONG, on THIS STAGE, with THIS AUDIENCE.... the tears were probably coming anyway, just a matter of when.
    Depending on mood...I could listen to either version of this Masterworks and be fulfilled.
    But you're right... the added elements of choir and symphony add a lot of.... 'flavor' to this already 'tasty' piece.
    Bon appetit!
    Here's another flavorful idea...
    You could try out the third Wilson sister....
    Gretchen Wilson covers Heart's BARRACUDA!
    You'd have thought Gretchen wrote it!
    You'll thank me later.

    As good as Heart's body of work was over the years, their first album was still their best. Dreamboat Annie is on my top 10 list of rock albums, and the best three songs on it are "Magic Man", "Crazy On You", and "(If You Love Me Like Music) I'll Be Your Song".

    For future reference, you can adjust the sound level WE hear at this end. i can barely hear the song in this video, enough that I didn't bother to listen thru. Remember that there are a shit ton of reaction people who've reacted to everything you have or will react to. We listeners who love these songs and enjoy watching people discover them.... WE WANT TO HEAR THE SONG LOUD ENOUGH TO ENJOY IT AT THIS END.

I think there's a longer version that you might want to check out. Or you may want to just check out the full version of this tribute to led Zeppelin which also includes kid Rock and Lenny Kravitz and Jack Black. It's a humdinger. Good job!

    They have this Honors show every year where the honor different people. There is about 3 or 4 other performances by different rock bands that play Led Zeppelin songs (Lenny Kravitz, Foo Fighters, Kid Rock). They also payed tribute to Buddy Guy at this show and Beth Hart and Jeff Beck play I'd Rather Go Blind, which was very good.
