They had a once in a lifetime chemistry that transcended their individual talents. Their interpretations of ANY genre always produced something unique and interesting. Their music will always be profound.
This is for Nick: Just wanted to let you know there have been many people that have gone through what you're going through, including myself. It can be very difficult, stressful, feels like your world has fallen apart, so much sadness and anger, but be strong, lean on your family if need be, do whatever takes to help you get through it. I don't know what your diagnosis is or the type you have, but if it's treatable then do what they ask of you as I did, and here I am 10 yrs later talking to you, I work and enjoy life, I have several grandchildren that I share my love with, and it's a beautiful thing, and I owe all of that to my doctors, but mostly to my family, they all contributed to me being cancer free, and I love them all being there for me. I wish you all the best and hope you have a full recovery, be strong man 👊
this was their final album due to the passing of John Bonham. This album went in a different direction than previous material. it was not well received when first released. But I liked it, especially this song.
Did they get a chance to do this live? I remember that he died fairly soon after this album came out. They did Knebworth and a couple of other shows and then he was gone, as I recall.
Not well received? It got to number one though, sold ten million copies, and gave the American recording industry a much needed shot in the arm, as album sales in the late 1970s were generally not very high. All previous Zeppelin albums went back on the Billboard charts.
@@edwardcoit9748 Some people have mistaken it for a mellotron. When Page hits the higher notes is clearly a guitar. What I loved about Page's work is the variety of instruments, tunings, techniques and effects he would play about with then use them once, twice, three times and that is it.
@@davidcarter4247 That fuzztoned octave-doubler must have been fashionable at the time - Frank Zappa started using it in 1980 (in a harsher/nastier fashion of course)
Lost my wife, a original Woodstock participant, of cancer after 40+ years of marriage and two great children. Given 6-7 months, she fought for over 4 years. F^^K CANCER! Fight like hell Nick! Many of us are with you!
The idea for the drum part came from what is now called the Purdie shuffle. Bernard Purdie is the drummer that originally came up with this drum pattern, and Bonham put his twist on it. Awesome! As did Jeff Porcaro of Toto on the song Rosanna. Again awesome!
First off, prayers sent for Nick. I hope his cancer is cured and his days are plenty to come! This song is a lyrical masterpiece. He talks about his angel letting him down and he was so straicken by her false charm etc., and how the rain has flooded the love that he found. He then realizes . . . he’s waiting on the wrong block. Hense, the “Fool in the Rain”😊
Robert said he got the idea for the song from the music that was being played during tv highlights of the World Cup that were being held in South America at the time
Led Zeppelin's last studio album 'In through the out door' in 1979 (besides the 1982 album 'Coda' w/ unreleased Zeppelin tracks) was a welcome return for the band after their disastrous 1977 American tour and the tragic death of singer Robert Plant's son (who was 5) In late 1978, Robert Plant informed Zeppelin's management that he was ready to work on new music... The problem was that Peter Grant, their protective manager, was going through a divorce and struggling w/ health issues ... Their tour manager Richard Cole was in bad shape from drugs (he would be fired in 1979) ... Guitarist Jimmy Page was also struggling w/ he+++n addiction and drummer John Bonham was in poor shape as well from heavy drinking. Led Zeppelin was booked at Abba's Polar Studios in Sweden which had the newest synthesizer technology and equipment... Bassist John Paul Jones was intrigued by the instruments at his disposal and willing to experiment w/ the music but he & Robert Plant was the only one showing up to write new songs... Jimmy Page said that he wanted Zeppelin to do something different - they would record music and release the tracks in 4 separate EP's... But another issue was that Page was not showing up to write new material. With studio time booked and costing money, John Paul Jones opted to step up and write the music and used his experience as a keyboardist and arranger to deliver the new material and Robert Plant supplied the lyrics... Page did contribute and co-produce the tracks but he was mostly absent. The music was not as heavy as past Zeppelin albums and had a lot of electronics for the first time... As the sessions ended, it was clear that there were not enough new songs to make 4 EP's as Jimmy Page had planned... John Bonham did his drum tracks quickly and left the studio... John Paul Jones oversaw most of the work and opted to release it as 1 studio album - 'In through the out door'. Close to 2 years after Led Zeppelin's last concert, the news came out in 1979 that Led Zeppelin would headline 2 massive shows at Knebworth, England... reportedly playing to over 200K fans over 2 nights... Jimmy Page started giving interviews again (which was rare) about Led Zeppelin's upcoming shows and a new album 'In through the out door' ... which would be released in the Fall of 1979. The Knebworth shows were a huge success but behind the scenes, their manager Peter Grant took most of the ca$h from the event's ticket sales and a row erupted as the opening bands demanded that they get paid. 'In through the out door' was released in '79 and went to #1 on the charts, becoming one of the year's biggest selling records (6x platinum in the US to date) ... even though Led Zeppelin did not tour for the rest of the year. Robert Plant and his wife welcomed another son and he was not as willing to leave his family & go back on tour for months on end... Led Zeppelin booked occasional shows in Europe in 1980 and hoped that a full comeback tour would happen (Because of a violent incident on the 1977 tour, Led Zeppelin could no longer be booked in the West Coast because the major promoter there, Bill Graham, vowed never to bring Led Zeppelin back there) The plan was that once the touring was done, Led Zeppelin would start work on a 'heavy' album of new songs. Finally, Robert Plant agreed to a tour of North America that was to begin in the Fall of 1980... Led Zeppelin began rehearsing quietly in England as tour dates were announced... However, drummer John Bonham was drinking heavily and struggling... At one rehearsal in September, he showed up drunk and couldn't even play - the sessions were called off for the day and John Bonham went out drinking again before returning to Jimmy Page's house to crash... The next morning, John Bonham was found dead in one of the guest rooms... He had asphyxiated overnight from throwing up while passed out... He was only 32. Months went by after John Bonham's death went public... Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and John Paul Jones retreated to their homes and never got back together... In December, Led Zeppelin released a statement that the band would not continue without John Bonham... Robert Plant later called the idea of Led Zeppelin carrying on w/ a new drummer "obscene". Their manager Peter Grant quit the music business and lived quietly in the English countryside until his death in 1995. Led Zeppelin's label Swansong was finished by 1983.
JPJ took on the primary composer duties on this album, so the style is different. I didn't like it back in the day, but it's definitely grown on me over the years.
ALL PRAYERS!!! Some of us went through this ourselves, and, please, come out and hang with us all Nick!!! PLEASE. Love to all everywhere. GO BOSTON BRUINS!!! 🍻🍻🍻
Really good review guys, not many people can catch the lyrics as well as you do. For this album Page and Bonham were absent during the writing due to drugs, so the songs are by Plant and Jones, but everybody came through and killed it when it came time to record.
Led Zeppelin has a variety of sounds. Not one bad or mediocre song. Arguably the best rock band ever. I've always enjoyed this album. Try "In The Evening" or "All My Love" We love your channel ❤
This song was Led Zeppelin's very last Top 40 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in America. The song peaked at the #21 spot during the early winter of 1980. Robert Plant put a lot of heart and soul into this song. This is a definitely banger of a song indeed!!!
I remember this. I thought this song would peak higher than #21, especially when it came into the Top Forty countdown at #40, then jumped to #31, then to #26 in its third week in the countdown.
Nick Bro..... Best of luck fighting that Cancer. I am currently awaiting treatment for my fourth tumor, fortunately mine is very easily treatable but it is still hard to live with at times. Sending positive thoughts your way....
Absolutely one of my all time favorite songs. Thank you, Nick. May all these positive vibes hit you so hard the cancer just up and runs away like a little bitch. I tried to come up with a marching band tie in, in light of the song, but I failed. May you feel the healing power of music in everything you do.
My Fav from these dudes. I always actually all of us at 1 time or another had went thru a scenario we made more tense and dire then it's coupled with anticipation, then BAM !! damit wtf am i doin i hope she is still there and we or i would become A.J. Fittipaldi etc etc etc and turns out everything was just fine.
What other band could pull off having a song that has a xylophone, a whistle, backwards guitar effect and turns into a samba and still makes sense? It’s one of their best imo 💧
Prayers for Nick!! Stay strong & survive ... and listen to Led Zeppelin! This song and other LZ songs will give you positive vibes & energy. And that's what you need! I know - I took 5 really high radiation doses for early onset of prostate cancer... oh, man, and a catherer inserted in the OWW! place for guys. You can DO THIS! Prayers amigo :)
This is exactly why so many hold Zepp to such high praise. They weren't just extraordinary at their niche. They created pure art. They could do anything. You should check out Robert Plant with the Honeydrippers singing Sea of Love. It's remarkable and beautiful.
I am pretty old but I was too young to have gone to any Led Zeppelin concert. Hope Nick and Princess Kate pull through their battles and live a long happy life.
This is from their last album in '79. Their sound had evolved over time & also, Jimmy Page & the drummer John Bonham, who would die not long after, were both deep in addictions & did't participate in the writing/production etc. The album was written & created mostly by John Paul Jones & Robert Plant, then the other guys came in and played what was already written. It turned out great, this is one of my favorite LZ albums, but yes, it shows the direction they might have gone in the 80s if Bonham hadn't died. This song is amazing!
Hey guys, if you like the blues side of Zepplin, there is one call The Lemon Song. This has got to be the best rock-blues song ever. I highly recommend listening to the studip version to get the full sound of every instrument. IT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND 🤯🤯🤯😎🤯🤯
Praying for you Nick. God Bless you and Keep you, may His Face shine upon you and bring His healing power to remove all cancer cells from your body! 🙏🏻♥️
Never forget the line from John Cusack in "The Sure Thing" - "Nick's a great name for the baby! Nick's your buddy, Nick's the kinda guy who doesn't mind if you puke in his car!". Best to you, Nick.
He didn't have GPS, lol. I grew up with this but oh my you guys put a huge smile on my face all the way through. That's just hilarious at the end Samantha where you point that out. Oh my.
Through my four years of high school I was in Marching Band in the percussion section. Our director and us, often, would discuss how badly we wanted to do that middle part that is counted off by the whistle. Unfortunately it never happened for our band. Thankfully we did get to see a college drum/ensemble from California, named the Santa Clara Vanguard, perform this on a football field. Spectacular.
When this album came out and this song in particular, a lot of my Zeppelin-Head buddies were not pleased. I admit that I was confused as well and didn't like it very much either. It wasn't until years later that I realized just how brilliant this album was and really appreciate now and this song in particular. Fool In The Rain IMHO is just another example of how ridiculously creative, bold and talented these four guys were. BTW, Bonzo was just on fire. Heck, they all were. And to Nick, you're in our prayers brother. Fight and never give up hope.
The Latin sounding part was because some of the band members were watching the World Cup from that year & it took place in a S. American country. They heard the music being played during the broadcast and took that idea & put it into this song!! Yes, it's a different sound for LZ but it totally works. This was a very popular song, on the radio etc.
All of My Love, South Bound Saurez, In The Evening and Carouselambra are other outstanding songs from this final Zeppelin album. Many critics and Zep fans did not like the album when it came out in 1979. I was mixed on it as a 16 year old when it was released but it is a very good LP just different from their previous music. Just demonstrates their musical versatility.
My favorite Led Zeppelin song is off of that album. The over 10 minute masterpiece called "Carousellambra" the constant changes of the music within the song and Robert Plant's vocals is incredible. Check it out.
I Love this song, and the rest of the album. I have always found that in Music and Movies if the "Critics"(Self proclaimed -Experts-) hate something, I'm going to love it.
That drum shuffle is iconic.
Yes, sounds a kind of variation of the Purdie shuffle.
Bonham could do no wrong.
Maybe the cleanest rock drummer I've ever heard.
Led Zep can play ANYTHING at an elite level, because they are all master musicians.
and great composers
They had a once in a lifetime chemistry that transcended their individual talents. Their interpretations of ANY genre always produced something unique and interesting. Their music will always be profound.
Absolutely!
Bonzo is an absolute BEAST on this song 🔥🔥🔥
Ba datta ta dat ba dotta ta pow...
😅
Such a great shuffle!
One of the best drum grooves of all time. The Bonham shuffle!
*Purdie
@@midnightrambler7716 Agreed. . Bernard Purdie was the architect of the triplet groove with the ghost notes. FintheR is just Bonham’s take on it.
@@Zno4theWinand a great take it is! Best of both worlds. The Purdie Shuffle with Bonham’s unmistakable thunder. Love the ghost notes and triplets.
@@midnightrambler7716 could not agree more!
@teddyray9336Purdie also played his shuffle on a couple of Steely Dan tracks. Home At Last off Aja and Babylon Sisters off Gaucho.
My 82 year old mother beat cancer 6 years ago. Keep your spirits up Nick and i wish you all the best. Also thanks for the suggestion.
God bless you and your family. I lost my father to Cancer last year.
This is for Nick:

@@Serai3 I don't think this was ever done live...not sure about All of My Love...don't think so either
"Fool in the Rain" is not what you expect from Zeppelin, which is why I like it.
Stay strong Nick ✌️
After The Crunge I expected anything. 🙂
Their songs are all different, they're all quality, nothing mediocre.
We love ya,Nick! Stay strong Zeppelin, friend. ✌️❤️
get well
The breadth of what they did in a decade is wild.
Nick, I am a two time cancer survivor and I can tell you that you'll get through it. Just keep looking forward!!
Again with the amazing versatility of Zeppelin
This actually is one of my favorite Led Zeppelin songs. "All of My Love" - on the same album is great too!
One of mine also although it doesn't top "Stairway" which is my all time favorite song EVER ! ( in 6 months I'll turn 80 )
Page plays the solo using a Blue Box Octave Fuzz that drops guitar signal two octaves and combines it with fuzz. Absolutely perfect for this song.
And sounds like a saxophone
@@edwardcoit9748 Some people have mistaken it for a mellotron. When Page hits the higher notes is clearly a guitar. What I loved about Page's work is the variety of instruments, tunings, techniques and effects he would play about with then use them once, twice, three times and that is it.
@@davidcarter4247 That fuzztoned octave-doubler must have been fashionable at the time - Frank Zappa started using it in 1980 (in a harsher/nastier fashion of course)
@@trashandcheese3636 You can still buy them apparently
Don't forget the Gizmotron for In the Evening.
Lost my wife, a original Woodstock participant, of cancer after 40+ years of marriage and two great children. Given 6-7 months, she fought for over 4 years. F^^K CANCER! Fight like hell Nick! Many of us are with you!

The drums!!!
ALL PRAYERS!!! Some of us went through this ourselves, and, please, come out and hang with us all Nick!!! PLEASE. Love to all everywhere. GO BOSTON BRUINS!!! 🍻🍻🍻
My favorite part of the reaction is Sam right here 5:59 and Nick don't give up it's not over until it's over 🙏💪
One of my favorite songs. Not only musically but lyrically.
Really good review guys, not many people can catch the lyrics as well as you do. For this album Page and Bonham were absent during the writing due to drugs, so the songs are by Plant and Jones, but everybody came through and killed it when it came time to record.
Bonzo's shuffle drumming on this tune is out of this world.
Nick, I wish you a lot of strength and a full recovery.
Love that shuffle! And who doesn't like the polyrhythm and the samba part?
If only the rest of the album was half as good as this track!
Another Led Zepplin song you should check out called Misty Mountain Hop.
Led Zeppelin has a variety of sounds. Not one bad or mediocre song. Arguably the best rock band ever. I've always enjoyed this album. Try
"In The Evening" or "All My Love"
We love your channel ❤
This song was Led Zeppelin's very last Top 40 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in America. The song peaked at the #21 spot during the early winter of 1980. Robert Plant put a lot of heart and soul into this song. This is a definitely banger of a song indeed!!!
I remember this. I thought this song would peak higher than #21, especially when it came into the Top Forty countdown at #40, then jumped to #31, then to #26 in its third week in the countdown.
The drums are KILLER!!! I LOVE this song. Prayers for Nick! Love the support for him in the comments!
Positive and healing vibes go out to Nick.
Nick Bro..... Best of luck fighting that Cancer. I am currently awaiting treatment for my fourth tumor, fortunately mine is very easily treatable but it is still hard to live with at times. Sending positive thoughts your way....
Stay strong, Nick. We love you. Sending Prayers. God Bless
"Ten Years Gone" and "The Rain Song", are both a must listen.
Praying for you Nick. Fight the good fight Bro. I see your doing it with Style, one of my favorite Zep tunes. Thanks Bro
Absolutely one of my all time favorite songs. Thank you, Nick. May all these positive vibes hit you so hard the cancer just up and runs away like a little bitch. I tried to come up with a marching band tie in, in light of the song, but I failed. May you feel the healing power of music in everything you do.
Stay strong Nick. Our 🙏prayers🙏 are with you
Yes, that's the album cover. It had a water wash that would show colors on the originals.
Angels surround you Nick and will guide you thru this journey. Peace💞
Great choice, Nick! And even better health to you! Best rockin' wishes to you, man!
Sending ❤and healing your way Nick!!
Oh you know when Sam's arms go up and that little side to side shuffle starts happening... she's digging it!
The lyrics to this are only bested by the arrangement . Masterful on both levels
Prayers up Nick❤️🙏.... Fool in the rain is my favorite Led Zeppelin song. Even though people hated this album I loved it.... Hot Dog!
Your reactions were great!!!! How can you NOT get into this song!?!😊
Prayers for you Nick!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
You've done about a dozen Led Zeppelin songs. Many more to go. Recommend Kashmir next.
Yeah, speaking of different, perfect next song. Good vibes to/from Nick.
Probably their most radio friendly song.
May God look over you Mr. Nick!🙏🙏
The singing is tremendous on this song.
It is so amazing how different each of Led Zepplins's songs are different from one another. There's no other rock band in history like them!
best use of whistle by any rock group
Great choice in songs Nick. You have many hoping the best for you.
Probably my favourite Zep song. Underrated, and admittedly quite different from their earlier differences. JB killed this.
Nick!!! We’re all Fools In The Rain!!! Love to you, bro. You’re gonna make it!!!
Prayers for Nick.
Prayers Nick!👏👏👏👏
when listening to the album it kicks right into carouselambra that will wake you up!
My Fav from these dudes. I always actually all of us at 1 time or another had went thru a scenario we made more tense and dire then it's coupled with anticipation, then BAM !! damit wtf am i doin i hope she is still there and we or i would become A.J.

Prayers for Nick!! Stay strong & survive ... and listen to Led Zeppelin! This song and other LZ songs will give you positive vibes & energy. And that's what you need! I know - I took 5 really high radiation doses for early onset of prostate cancer... oh, man, and a catherer inserted in the OWW! place for guys. You can DO THIS! Prayers amigo :)
All the best to you Nick. Thanks for the classic.

One of my favorite Zep songs. It's so eclectic. Nick, stay positive & strong. You got this! 🙏
Thanks for REWINDING after the PAUSE, guys! Glad u do it, that way u don't miss cool transitions and suchlike! Great reaction!
Great pick Nick. Keep up the good fight and get well!
One of the main attributes of their music, to me, was the cool changes in tempo. Always spot on.
May God put his hand on you. Prayers
Prayers to you, Nick! I pray for you to feel God’s peace, strength and love.
I am pretty old but I was too young to have gone to any Led Zeppelin concert. Hope Nick and Princess Kate pull through their battles and live a long happy life.
Thoughts and prayers to Nick.
Prayers Nick!

The Latin sounding part was because some of the band members were watching the World Cup from that year & it took place in a S. American country. They heard the music being played during the broadcast and took that idea & put it into this song!! Yes, it's a different sound for LZ but it totally works. This was a very popular song, on the radio etc.
All of My Love, South Bound Saurez, In The Evening and Carouselambra are other outstanding songs from this final Zeppelin album. Many critics and Zep fans did not like the album when it came out in 1979. I was mixed on it as a 16 year old when it was released but it is a very good LP just different from their previous music. Just demonstrates their musical versatility.
My favorite Led Zeppelin song is off of that album. The over 10 minute masterpiece called "Carousellambra" the constant changes of the music within the song and Robert Plant's vocals is incredible. Check it out.
I Love this song, and the rest of the album. I have always found that in Music and Movies if the "Critics"(Self proclaimed -Experts-) hate something, I'm going to love it.
