This is a cover of an old blues song. "I Can't Quit You Baby" is blues song written by Willie Dixon and first recorded by Chicago blues artist Otis Rush in 1956
Zeppelin lll is amazing but because it was so different than the first two albums it took a few listens for me to appreciate it. It's very acoustic and mellow. There is one blues song "Since I've Been Loving You" that makes the album perfect.
Good thing this wasn't blocked. Led Zeppelin recorded "I Can't Quit You Baby" for their 1969 debut album Led Zeppelin. According to music journalist Cub Koda, their rendition is "a note-for-note copy of Otis Rush's" 1966 Vanguard version, although with different instrumentation and dynamics.
Ya know, their studio stuff is exceptional, as page was an incredible producer. When they play live, they take that studio production and turn it into one great variation, one outrageous jam session. The 4 members are at the top of their game when on stage. It's never enough for them to simply play the song close to the studio album-- Bonham and Jones comprised the best live rthym section to back Page wherever he takes the song. I've never ever heard another of the very great "jam on stage " rock and roll bands over the same period of time get up on stage and take so many chances pushing the material. Sure Zep had their off nights while on tour, but that's to be expected of a band that attempts to make each song's performance better than they ever played it before. Seeing them play in LA 3 nights in a row just blew my mind-- at the time I was playing guitar in a hard rock club band, so I could appreciate the incredible musicianship. Each night they played the hell out of their songs. Never again will there ever be a big time band that takes that many chances on stage, and for the most part just absolutely killed it. Thank God for the explosion in the last 20 years of the videos of live performances. Never seen so many bootleg performances-- thank you to all those people who snuck cameras into the show
"I can't quit you baby" was one of the first songs that Led Zeppelin rehearsed - a song written by Willie Dixon, recorded by Otis Rush... a blues classic tune. When Plant and Page first got together in 1968, they discovered that they loved the same American blues records, so they had an idea of what songs they wanted to play together in 'The new Yardbirds', which became Led Zeppelin that year. Once John Bonham and John Paul Jones came in, they were all shocked how powerful they sounded in rehearsals. This performance gives an idea of what came out of those first band rehearsals in 1968. Since they were short on original songs, Zeppelin recorded a few covers - Annie Bredon's "Babe I'm gonna leave you"... Jake Holmes' "Dazed and confused" ... 'You shook me' (another Willie Dixon song) rearranged w/ Zeppelin's touches... There is a 2 CD live record 'BBC Sessions' which was a collection of live performances for radio on the BBC, including an early performance of 'Stairway to heaven'. It captured Led Zeppelin's live sound perfectly. The 2nd album 'Led Zeppelin II' was written on tour and more original songs were included... it became a #1 record in 1969, just months after the release of the debut album. 'Led Zeppelin III' was a radical departure for the band in 1970... 1 heavy song on it was 'Immigrant song'... For most of the album, the band decided to strip down their sound to acoustic guitars and explore their folk influences, like Joni Mitchell... CSNY ... Bob Dylan... etc. Of course, their fans were not happy w/ the change - they wanted a follow up to 'Whole lotta love'... and instead got this country/ folk Zeppelin album. Songs like 'Tangerine' ... "Gallow's pole" ... "That's the way"... etc. But Zeppelin were determined that this was their way forward, and their concert got longer and included an acoustic set as well. By the time they started recording 'Led Zeppelin IV' in 1971, they had both acoustic and electric songs on that record, which became their biggest success, selling 24 million copies in the US alone.
In the early years Zeppelin was almost all blues. They kept changing songs to attract the more Rock & Roll fans. Personally I prefer their older blues.
Love this performance. Thanks for reacting to it. I also dig their blues tunes and would love to hear your reaction to "You Shook Me", "Your Time is Gonna Come" and "How Many More Times" (also performed during this same concert) from album 1. Album 3 is a wonderful album. It's not necessarily indicative of what comes afterward, although it is indicative of just how creative and versatile Zeppelin was. As you listen to the tracks on album 3, consider reacting to their live performance of "That's the Way" and "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp" during their 1975 Earls Court concert. Wonderful!
Led Zeppelin has every genre of music in their music... zeppelin was first band to have their own plane, their own limousines and their own trucks taking all their equipment to venues. Robert Plant and John Bonham knew each other early on and Jimmy Paige and John Paul Jones were studio musicians together in London. After Yardbirds broke up Plant and Bonham joined Paige and Jones hence LED ZEPPELIN WAS BORN. 1969
Nothing like Zeppelin! Try some acoustic stuff like Ten years gone, Thankyou or Ramble on!! Great great stuff!! So glad I was a teenager in the 70’s!!!!
Most bands water down the blues to be radio friendly but Led Zep takes it deeper down in the piss trough and stays true to the spirit of the great black Delta Bluesmen
I believe that this performance was prior to the release of Zepp 1, and that they were still trying out different possible aspects of the tunes that would wind up on that disc... It's also really early in the band's development, before the various strengths of its 4 members began to be capitalized. In other words this live recording is not much above the performance you'd expect to find in the first few hrs in the studio, and yet they are f-ing amazing! Thanx for this reaction, which stirs so many good memories!!!
Opps! Thanx for fact checking@@StevenLeBlanc918! That makes this performance a tad underwhelming then, IMO. I saw them in '73, and they were MUCH tighter, and none were wearing hand knitted family gifts (not that there's anything wrong with THAT!)...
I love Zeppelin, but they are a curse at the same time. Nobody can do hard rock music without being accused of copying Zeppelin, as if they invented bluesy hard rock. I watched a trio of low-music IQ reactors do a Badlands song, and the first thing one said was it sounded like Zeppelin recorded a song in the 80's. *headsmack*. Lol, guitarist plays an open E chord..."Zeppelin!!"
@@TheAdventuresofTNT Ok, I'll send you another request. But did you know when you did that reaction that Winger singer, bassist Kip Winger was the bassist and Winger keyboardist, guitarist Paul Taylor was the keyboardist? They formed Winger right after.
I highly highly highly recommend HOW MANY MORE TIMES from this same show. It will blow your freaking mind.
Yes!
100% this.
I just hate how they stop at climax
And Jonesy on the bass is killin' it!

Yes, I just discovered that.
So freaking good....this why James Patrick Page is and will always be my guitar God! The GOAT!🎸🐉♑
Plant could pretty much blow windows out with his voice in his early 20s
Oh wow...so soulful...this was amazing!
They are the GOAT!
Never will go wrong with zeppelin T

And it was 100% credited to Willie Dixon. They didnt even claim any arrangement.
That bass is driving it
Yrs! More Zeppelin!!

I was listening to LZ when the alert for this appeared on my comp.
Great Great Great from beginning to end ❤
You did Bron Y Aur Stomp for me. Which is a sleeper on the Led Zeppelin III album. It is a tap your toes kinda song.
Thx man needed this song tonite!
The G.O.A.T.s
this entire gig is AWESOME!!
It made it. Great job T, more Zeppelin, can't go wrong.

btw, Jimmy is wearing a sweater his mum knitted for his b-day... Not yet the RockGod image of the 1970s. 😉
This was January 9, 1970. After Led Zeppelin II was released.
Opps! Thanx for fact checking@@StevenLeBlanc918!

GOAT Reaction!
I never get tired of seeing it
If you liked this one check out baby we're gonna groove. Live 1970 royal Albert hall
LZ III is a different journey, for sure. Just go in track order to get the full progression of changes and maturity.
My God just listen to Bob's base pedal oh my God that's my boy
Who's Bob?
ain't that the funkist Led Zeppelin song you ever heard
When Giant's Walked the Earth..
Rawwwwww
One of rare times you'll see JPJ out on stage jamming. They wanted him in the spotlight, but he preferred staying back.
Do yourself a favor: Stop what you're doing....buy the Zeppelin 2003 DVD.....put this entire show on......and watch it front to back.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💥💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥‼️
How can somebody watch this and not say Page is the best, far far away the best guitar player that existed
😎🎸💪🏻
So how come there is no a reaction to the Led Zeppelin classic 'Kashmir' on the channel?
Plant was at his best during those early years, before he damaged his voice around '72 or so.
Sorry about that I meant to say just listen to John bottoms base pedal and everything else so amazing that is my boy
Don't mean to be the word police, but it's Bonham.
@@antarcticorb9197 yeah I know I know that's cuz I was voice texting and I didn't look at it before he sent it

Hey T, what's going on, are you doing my September reaction today?
I did Alice cooper Roses on white lace last year.

Recorded version is better!!💞✌️

Jimmy Page is crazy good, although he did get sloppy at times....might have been from higher influences.
Never seen this version before. Good job, apart from that crap in the middle, lol.
Don't get why we're watching a guy listening to a song
🤮
