As I have always said, JPJ is tge secret weapon of Zeppelin. Bonzo was the ammunition. Jimmy was the scope, and Robert was the trigger. When they fire, they never miss
@@Billis75 good stuff- heard it before... so sweet but wish I could have been able to hear it 35 years ago. Another thing that sucks is that the video (not really a video) stops before the end... thanks though
the did the right thing cashing out after Bonham. There are some band that once they form, thats it. Everyone is so important to the sound that it just cant be anything than what it is. Rush made the same call with Peart of course.
On Dec. 26th 1968 I was a 16 year old fascinated by rock n roll. I went to a concert featuring Vanilla Fudge and Spirit. The opening act that night was an unheard of group called Led Zepplin. This was their first ever North American show, and why they chose my hometown of Denver, Co. I’ll never know, but what an amazing surprise. Next to seeing Jimi Hendrix live at Red Rocks outdoor amphitheater this was one of my favorite live performances.
I’d say, it’s because jimmy page purposely chose 3 other absolutely amazing musicians in their own fields. Other bands maybe have a duo writing most of the songs like the stones for example, but Zep had 4 amazing musicians who sometimes all wrote together and sometimes only had 1 or 2 members writing the bigger part of a Song. In through the Outdoor is the best example of songs written mostly by jones and page, while their harder stuff were more of a group project or a combination of Jimmy and bonzo. Of course they all loved all fields from the softer stuff to the really hard rock to classic metal, so there are exceptions, the riff for black dog for example was written by jones.
those two songs werent on the same album but totally right - there was so much talent in that group and there are songs like Kashmir and this one that are just pure Zeppelin and cant be shoved into another genre.
@@qaballxro_6918 most of the entire zep discography is written by plant and page, in through the out door was written almost exclusively plant and jones. each member usually added his own part to the song but page and plant acted as the helmsmen.
15 year old me: listening to this play on vinyl under headphones, laying on the floor of my attic bedroom, smoking Marlboros & contemplating life.... 46 year old me: listening to this on my phone, laying on my bed, petting my snoring cat & contemplating life... the more things change, the more they stay the same
I personally fell in love with this song when I first heard it being played all the time on stereos by guys I lived with in the barracks of a California U.S. Air Force Base in the early 80s. It is my very favorite Zeppelin song. Fantastic. Some of the most amazing instrumentals blended with voice of any song I have ever heard!
greatest rock band of all time. this is there eight iteration. no one album is the same. they took the blues and turned it upside down while putting soul into all their songs. best four musicians to be put together by Jimmy Page. This is probably their most pop song they've ever written. Robert Plant is the soul of the band and John Paul Jones is a true magician. John Bonham died shortly after this album. He was the greatest drummer of all times
It's so strange that "D'yer Mak'er" was Zepp's failure to replicate Reggae but turned out to be one their best songs. It's one of their most unique songs imo.
@@fordism.01 Liked the album, just don't think it ranks with their best. Had the cassette back in '79. The sound is kind of off; almost as if recorded in an empty warehouse. Also, my first thought was that it didn't sound like Bonham on drums in places.
This is one of my absolute favorite songs. I swear my Nana's baptist church choir would enter the sanctuary and bop up the church aisle to a song with this same beat.
Bonham just KILLS this one. I really think this was some of his finest playing. That shuffle beat is perfect and the slowly building Caribbean flavored bridge ending with the fast roll and his solo fills at the end before Page starts that killer solo with the sub-harmonic synth pedal is just SWEET! Still just absolutely love this song after 40 years of listening. They got it right on this one! Thanks! Peace from SF
Apparently Jimmy Page went to Brazil for a soccer game and during his time there was inspired by the local music which would eventually become this song.
@@vellaropedart9190 Nope; it was both Jones and Plant at a soccer (football) game in Argentina. 🙂 I just happened to see it when I looked-up this song on Wikipedia, lol.
I remember like it was just yesterday we had tickets to see the IN THROUGH THE OUTDOOR TOUR at the FORUM IN LOS ANGELES and the news came out that DRUMMER JOHN BONHAM had passed, what a sad day for ROCK & ROLL!!!!!!!!
Bonham is incredible on this song Greatest drummer in rock history 🤘🎶 My fav rock band They are amazing 🤩 It gives me chills every time I listen to this song.
Jamal I’ve been listening to this song since I’m 13 years old. I’m 53 now. Can’t express the love I have for this song. Watching you enjoy it makes it so much better!!! God bless you my brother!!
My favorite thing to do lately is watch young people hear zeppelin for the first time. They are the greatest of all time. Each song is a different masterpiece worh influences of blues jazz soul folk reggae. Bohnam is by far the greatest drummer EVER!
I become a rock legend when I hear this song. My air drumming skills are nuts, nuts I tell you 😆 Also mad respect for not interrupting the song every 30 seconds 🙌
This is the song that hooked me on led zeppelin. Stairway was the 1 everyone knew from them including myself, whole lotta love is a favorite of mine. But this song right here is when I went from liking the band, to appreciating the band. It's great and definitely 1 of the best zeppelin songs imo.
100% . This is one of the most complex songs to play: notes, timing, tone, EVERYTHING. Easily the most underrated Zepplin song of their amazing catalog... BRILLIANT!
This is a very different album for Led Zeppelin, Robert Plant's son had just passed away at 5 years old and Jimmy Page was still going through his heroin addiction so John Paul Jones essentially produced this album.
This song became Led Zeppelin's last Top 40 in America. It peaked at #21 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the early winter of 1980. This song and the Immigrant Song are two of my favorite from them. The end of a great group going out in style!!!
This song is completely addictive ; and yes, like others have shared; it’s that killer drum groove. And ! Page’s solo! Love it! Perhaps his most unique in his canon of genius I dare say.
Bruce Runnels, That is also one of my favorite Zeppelin songs. One due to it being complex and layered musically, and also in that it reference to JRR Tolkien's The Hobbit. There are also other good Zeppelin songs with Lord of the Rings references such as "Misty Mountain Hop" for the Misty Mountains, and "Ramble On" which references Mordor, Gollum, and the evil one (Sauron?). And of course there is The Battle of Evermore" The Ring wraiths ride in black/ride on".
@@brucer2152 I think Robert Plant was the main Tolkien fan. One of my two cats is named Zeppelin. And, it was my younger stepdaughter who was in her early teens when we adopted him and his brother as kittens. I was actually surprised she even knew of the band Zeppelin. His brother we named Nash, though the inspiration came from the son of a friend of the family, rather than from Crosby, Stills, Nash and sometimes Young. But still sounds cool just the same.😉😀
People always talk about the drum in Rio during carnival. This is Bonham as one of those drummers. This song has so much - the perfect John and John grove, Jimmy's synthesizer pedal guitar solo, and Robert's impeccable voice.
I'm surfing your tsunami brutha... You're not the first one to battle the mighty Zep for airtime. Your quest is pure.

Zeppelin was sucha goodl band. Different sounds, moods, productions. Fool in the Rain, a cool song. Love how Zep would showcase each others talents in their songs. Voice, lead guitar, bass and drums.
This is my ultimate favorite song EVER! Led Zeppelin is a band that always changed things up. I'm glad to see you here again Jamal. I haven't seen your videos in awhile.
Genesis did a song that has to be a nod to this one called "misunderstanding". The chords progression is similar and the lyrics are about a guy who waits in the rain for someone who doesn't show up. It's a great song. Check it out. It was released a year after this song and Phil Collins, who wrote it, has always been a huge Zeppelin fan (he played drums for them when they performed at Live Aid).
Actully misunderstanding is a rip off of the progression of a sly and family song hot fun in the summertime. At least years ago I read Phil got the idea from that
Takes me back. Led zeppelin was my first concert in life. Saw them in concert in 1977. I have had a love affair with them ever since. Thank you for keeping great music alive. So excited too, I just purchased a shirt from your merch!!!
Bonham, the literal legend. With all due respect to Jones, Page, and Plant, the shuffle, ghost notes, and the utter perfection of the groove make the drums the lead instrument of the song.
That’s the Purdie Shuffle, my man. Bernard Purdie influenced generations of drummers, and that includes some of the greats like Bonham, Porcaro, etc. Love those ghost notes
@@flibber123 oh, well that’s cool. Hey, check Bernard Purdie out! Here’s a video of him incorporating all different types of beats, and his discovery of the Purdie Shuffle. It’s been used by many drummers since. Yeah, it might be a drum video, but he’s quite a character. You’ve probably heard him before as he’s one of the most famous session drummers, and has played with countless legends on dozens upon dozens of albums ua-cam.com/video/T1j1_aeK6WA/v-deo.html
🔥🔥🔥🔥LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG.... ONLY WAY TO LISTEN TO THIS ONE IS LOUD/BLASTING .....FEEL ALL THE ENERGY RUNNING THROUGH THEM VEINS....YESSSSSSSIR!!!❤
I don’t hate this album, but it’s bittersweet. When it was released we got tickets to see them in Atlanta in the upcoming tour.. then John Bonham died..
Oh, hell. Can't imagine how that must have felt to miss seeing them. I never got the chance to see them, my favorite band since the early '70's. It's been a serious sore spot and regret for many years. Can't imagine how devastating that must have been. Such a tragic loss. At least their music remains.
Same with my parents. They luckily had seen them in the early 70s but even as a kid I remember when he died - in our house I thought a family member died, my parents were quite sad 😢 as I too became a fan, I get it now. Same with SRV - one of only 3 times I saw my Dad cry.
That "groove" is called a 1/2 time shuffle,a tricky,exacting beat to play on the kit,and,there is way more going on in those drum parts, throughout the whole song, than meets the ear.Great song and essential Zeppelin for sure
Song about waiting on the rainy street corner, somehow ends up feeling like a tropical island party ... Led Zeppelin in all their glory ... God rest John Bonham ♥♥♥
I've listened to many covers of this song and NO ONE has ever gotten the exact same shuffle beat that John Bonham is doing, not even Jason. Not only is it yet another great Zep song, but it's become a showcase for how good and unique Bonham was.
This is a very important song! The last “released” single to play before they decided to disband. Releasing in the early 80’s; was a huge hit. Catching the attention of a younger generation that never heard the great Zeppelin! At least in my part of the Country.
@@kurtsaxton9665 What’s not true Kurt? I chose to go with a very condensed version to inform the significance of new Fans finding Led Zeppelin through this single. Was this NOT the last single released from this album? Did Zeppelin Not disband after Bonham’s passing?
@@kurtsaxton9665 Thank you for the touring info. I was speaking of Single release play on the radio, not of the tour. Never said anything about the tour. Please read fully before calling me out. Thank you. i.e. “Released Single; Huge Hit.
Please react to the Clash an English band from the 70's & 80's, political punkish rock that added some reggae along the way. "Rocking the Casbah", "London Calling", "train in vain", "Guns of Brixton", "I fought the law" & "revolution rock" their truly a great mind that believed in what they were preaching like Rage Against the Machine years later.

As I have always said, JPJ is tge secret weapon of Zeppelin. Bonzo was the ammunition. Jimmy was the scope, and Robert was the trigger. When they fire, they never miss
This is Led Zeppelin's greatest track, the greatest drumming ever recorded, and the song that's played in heaven when someone enters the pearly gates.
This song is a sterling example of why there is no Zeppelin without John Bonham
Cool, however I would have to say that the whole catalog backs up your statement. ✌
Mind-boggling drum talent. Amazing!
Here's the video of John playing this in studio, no other tracks. ua-cam.com/video/lWnhz1ZcF74/v-deo.html

@wms1983wms It would be a shorter list if you named songs where Bonham's drums _AREN'T_ jaw-dropping.😉🤘

Not many bands can claim to have enough range to have "Dazed and Confused" on one side and "Fool in the Rain" on the other. Zep could play ANYTHING.

"What are we doin'?" We're about to go to school with John Bonham, that's what we're doing. ;-D
I once really hurt my shoulder playing air drums to this. But Jimmy's solo was very soothing.
At the sound of the whistle, they actually break into a Brazilian Carnivale-type beat.
That's exactly what I see when I hear it. Reminds me of kids playing football in the streets of Rio too

the best song of ZEPELLIN, of course not have made it possible without the greatest drummer ever,RIP JOHN BONHAM the greatest ever.
🔥🔥🔥🔥LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG.... ONLY WAY TO LISTEN TO THIS ONE IS LOUD/BLASTING .....FEEL ALL THE ENERGY RUNNING THROUGH THEM VEINS....YESSSSSSSIR!!!❤
I don’t hate this album, but it’s bittersweet. When it was released we got tickets to see them in Atlanta in the upcoming tour.. then John Bonham died..
Oh, hell. Can't imagine how that must have felt to miss seeing them. I never got the chance to see them, my favorite band since the early '70's. It's been a serious sore spot and regret for many years. Can't imagine how devastating that must have been. Such a tragic loss. At least their music remains.
Same with my parents. They luckily had seen them in the early 70s but even as a kid I remember when he died - in our house I thought a family member died, my parents were quite sad 😢 as I too became a fan, I get it now. Same with SRV - one of only 3 times I saw my Dad cry.
Wow! You're part of that history, no matter how bittersweet, you're experienced!
That "groove" is called a 1/2 time shuffle,a tricky,exacting beat to play on the kit,and,there is way more going on in those drum parts, throughout the whole song, than meets the ear.Great song and essential Zeppelin for sure
One of my Top 10 Zeppelin songs! I love every part especially BONZO on the drums. Robert Baby is amazing! Led Zeppelin is #1 🤘🏽
This IS my most favorite Zepplin song!
They are all great , but this is my fav.This whole album is awesome!
It is realy good!
Finally! Its such an awesome song.
Song about waiting on the rainy street corner, somehow ends up feeling like a tropical island party ... Led Zeppelin in all their glory ... God rest John Bonham ♥♥♥
I've listened to many covers of this song and NO ONE has ever gotten the exact same shuffle beat that John Bonham is doing, not even Jason. Not only is it yet another great Zep song, but it's become a showcase for how good and unique Bonham was.
This is a very important song! The last “released” single to play before they decided to disband.
Releasing in the early 80’s; was a huge hit. Catching the attention of a younger generation that never heard the great Zeppelin! At least in my part of the Country.
Not true, I had tickets reserved for this album's tour in Los Angeles the day that the date was set John Bonham died.
@@kurtsaxton9665 What’s not true Kurt? I chose to go with a very condensed version to inform the significance of new Fans finding Led Zeppelin through this single. Was this NOT the last single released from this album? Did Zeppelin Not disband after Bonham’s passing?
@@TexasMagnolia they did disband after his passing but the tour was scheduled long before is passing they were going to tour on that album.
@@kurtsaxton9665 Thank you for the touring info. I was speaking of Single release play on the radio, not of the tour. Never said anything about the tour. Please read fully before calling me out. Thank you. i.e. “Released Single; Huge Hit.
@Texas Magnolia they didn't choose to disband, they disbanded after the death of bonzo in the extremely early morning hours of Sept 25th
Please react to the Clash an English band from the 70's & 80's, political punkish rock that added some reggae along the way. "Rocking the Casbah", "London Calling", "train in vain", "Guns of Brixton", "I fought the law" & "revolution rock" their truly a great mind that believed in what they were preaching like Rage Against the Machine years later.
The Clash rocks!
London Calling was a badass album.
Yes! And ‘know your rights’ needs to be added to that list.
Death or Glory
I first heard this record at the skatepark in the early 80's. I'm 58 now, never gets old!!! Thanks for this!
In through the outdoor. One of their best! Every song is amazing. The same with Presence, every song on that Album is beyond all comprehension. It;s a gift from the Gods!
I like how at 6:00 you thought it was ending and then were like OH they're back LOL
John Bonham does an awesome version of the purdie shuffle. Such a great groove.
This is my favorite Led Zeppelin song -- Fool in the Rain --- but I play it a little louder!!! 🎵🎵🎵💖
One of my favorite Zeppelin songs. Pure excellence. Feels like we're in Jamaica for a while.
