Together they were insanely good/great. Randy "Macho Man" Savage simmed it up as welll as I've ever heard, " These guys were just on another level", the more I thought about it the more sense that statement makes. There are a lot of really good bands, but when you try to put their music in with Zeppelin's, it don't fit. There just is another level that these guys played in, it would be like comparing your 8th grade science teacher to Tesla or Einstein. Nope, uh-uh, not happening....
Its my favorite too. Right along with Presence. Physical is definitely their most diverse. That's what sets them apart from all others and makes them the greatest band of all time. Bar none. Not just technical abilities but the songs they wrote.
When I grew up in Kansas City in the 60's nearly every other block had a garage band practicing in the summer night air. You could ride your bicycle around and hear them all trying to emulate their rock heroes. Great eclectic music was on every radio station. You just don't hear that today. It is a lost time.
That's YOUR heritage, young man, that you and all of us are benefitting from. Led Zep mined old blues songs straight out of the Delta and brought back gold. This is a gospel song from the 20s. You may hear western, I don't know about that, but this shit is as black as black can be. These brilliant musicians were lucky to have it to work with and, from what I understand, were grateful. Love your show.
very true, I know these videos have a subtext of 'blacks listening to white music' but for me its more about the generational thing. I LOVE to see younger folks getting turned on to 70s era music and start to quest the stuff on the radio now, and hopefully understand the true roots of the music of that time
Facts🎯 John.💯 There would be no Zep, Beatles, Stones, Elvis, etc., without artists like Willie Dixon, Muddy, Chuck, Richard, Blind Willie Johnson, Wolf, Fats, Rosetta Tharpe, Elmore James, etc. They paved the way and this is forever our heritage, legacy & contribution to music and to the world.🤘🏽

Stephen Murphy I mean I didn’t even grow up in that era of music I’m 17 but I grew up listening to led zeppelin and seeing their music being so enjoyed by all different types of people and all ages makes me love the music that much more. Seeing someone appreciate all the little details and aspects of their music that are overlooked makes me feel so good!
I think it's because we have found a way to connect with not the younger generation but the youngest generation! Kids today (and when I say kids I mean people up to 30) don't realize how vast the music listening experience was in our day. We had Motown, we had Funk, we had Blues, we had the beginnings of metal, we had what's now known as classic rock, we had rockabilly we had soft rock, we had country, we had Bluegrass and reggae... Today's kids seem to be stuck in one genre of music and to watch them discover this entire world of fantastic artists brings us closer to them and gives us a way to meet in the middle.
For me, it’s like recapturing some of that magic of hearing an amazing song for the first time. Because once that first time is gone, it’s gone. And for me, I also grew up on classic rock, so I don’t remember my first time hearing these songs- they were just always there. Maybe that’s why I love reactions so much- because I was just too young the first time I heard it (and I’m talking baby type of young- they really were just alway there), so I get that bit of “first time magic”.
@Stephen Murphy absolutely agree, it makes things better knowing the old classic are getting heard by the younger ones 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
The sheer complexity of sounds and rhythms from just 4 instruments Everywhere you listen something good going on. This is what music was before iPhones and social media. Man we were blessed!
Nothing like sitting in your garage on an old couch, with old friends and old whiskey, and a little smoke and remembering your youth of 45 years ago. Thank you for reviewing this absolute classic!
They left the cough in at the end as a way to showing their detractors, this is them, live, together, in the studio killing it. The best there ever was.
When John Bonham was born, God said, ' And this man shall play drums like none you have ever seen or heard, I have said this to be and it will be so'. GOD
Damn im 54 I grew up loving so many bands led zeppelin i seen them rush 7 tims ,black sabbath with ozzie ,and Ronie jame dio. journey, Ratt,white snake so i could go on and on.god bless the great neil peart RIP.AND OTHERS LIKE DIO RIP.😪.
Led Zeppelin had the feel of being the adult rock band. Their songs went far beyond partying, drinking, sex, drugs, etc. I liked them as a kid but I found true appreciation for Led Zep when I became an adult and the depth of their songs was more understandable.
I never heard this song from them until your reaction video. Went to buy the download and it was only available if the whole album was bought. I bought the whole album, no regrets.
You hit on the thing there Alexander ... back then we bought the album (vinyl) ... and we got about 45mins of greatness ... not just one track. Enjoy :) (67yo)
I’m 29 and grew up on this, although I didn’t truly appreciate it as much as I do today. I guess it’s because we still had some great music growing up in the 90s like Alice In Chains, Blind Melon, Soundgarden, Counting Crows, Jeff Buckley, Black Crowes...just to name a few. But with the absolute garbage out nowadays it makes me truly appreciate the greatness of the music we had back then.
"In My Time of Dying" (also called "Jesus Make Up My Dying Bed" or a variation thereof) is a traditional gospel music song that has been recorded by numerous musicians. The title line, closing each stanza of the song, refers to a deathbed and was inspired by a passage in the Bible from Psalms 41:3 "The Lord will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing, thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness".
This song really is a masterpiece. The lyrics pulls you, the music drags you back, kind of cracks open your soul some. Zep was pretty magical, they aren't legendary for tight pants and power chords. They were legit, stands the test of time. Thanks for letting me hear again for the first time, a blessing.
They understood how much blues there needs to be in good rock and roll if you want that sex/swagger/danger/mayhem vibe to come through. I couldn't name my favorite LZ song because it changes with my mood, but even some of my least favorite songs I still listen to from beginning to end because they're never bad; in fact, they're always damn good.
John Bonham attempting to pound out a passage to the center of the earth with a drum kit. Close your eyes when you listen to this. When you open them, you’re surprised your house is still standing. It is a masterpiece
I'm 76 years old and have been a Zep fan since they started the band: four genius musicians magically brought together by Jimmy Page, greatest guitarist EVER! 💕💕💕💕 BEST ROCK BAND EVER!!
Imagine the first time ever hearing this song was seeing them perform it live. That's what I got to witness early in their '75 tour, before the album with this on it (Physical Graffiti) hit record stores. I bought every Zeppelin album as soon as it was released, & saw them in concert 3 times. So usually when I saw them I already knew each song. But it was a real treat that at THAT particular concert they did some songs that were brand new & unheard, including this one, "Kashmir" & "Trampled Underfoot". The album was a magnificent double album, it became available just a couple of days after that concert, & you know I ran out immediately to buy it & get it into my hot little hands.💙
@@Caseydog3 It was '75. They toured January through March. "Physical Graffiti" was released in February. We drove to St. Louis, a 4 hr drive, only to find out Robert had strep throat & that concert was postponed. So we had to drive back several days later. But, as you know, it was SO worth it! I was lucky enough to see them again on the '77 tour. And the first time was in '70. So glad you got to see them as well. They were special.
Deborah Cornell - now tell us the REAL juicy stories lady ... ha ha ha - one simply does NOT have a history like yours merely to write a straight up UA-cam comment without some “Juice” wink wink ha ha ha.
It's amazing how well Led Zep's music stands tall after all these years. By no means do I mean to diminish the countless talented musicians out there, many of whom I love, but there's Zeppelin and there's everyone else. These guys were so far ahead of their time and truly on an entirely different level. Loved the reaction video!
This is a straight up dirge, in the Delta Blues tradition, and is built on several similar earlier songs. At this point in their career, Led Zeppelin was doing very little of the traditional blues songs. They came up in that late 60s British blues revival scene, and at least half of their first album are reimagined versions of traditonal blues songs. Once they had an audience, though, they stuck mainly to originals. So when they went back to these blues roots, you knew it was going to be worth their time, and yours.
It is a (slide guitarist) Blind Willie Johnson (Beaumont, TX) cover (as is Nobody's Fault But Mine): www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=Jesus+make+up+my+dying+bed+blind+willie
@@balthazarblue yea they took the blues and electrified it. The White Stripes do something similar, Death Letter is my favorite from them and it's an old blues song turned up to 11. The documentary It Might Get Loud is worth the watch, just fastforward through the Edge's segments.
I love how you younger folks are responding and appreciating music I grew up with. It makes me happy. It also makes me happy to see my 16 year old son wear Zeppelin shirts, and that he wants me to teach him the songs on guitar. I was seriously worried that instruments were going to go the way of cursive. But there's been a resurgence of young people loving classic 70's and 80's rock, and they want to learn how to play it.
True story here no b.s. We had a shop when I was a kid and when I was old enough to help my dad I would go in because he was already there good and early and he knew I was a teenage music hound so ...when I'd walk in the door usually well before we'd open he would have the radio blasting away. So he'd ask me....." Hey son?...who's playin' this song?" I'd say well that's led Zeppelin Black Dog. Another day I'd be there...." Hey son who's doing this song?"....that's led Zeppelin Rock n Roll...a while later...." This that Led Zeppelin again?" Yes that's called When the Levee Breaks...and not long later he'd ask and I'd say that's Going to California... Zeppelin again! Now this is over a time period of a few months so then I tell him....you know pops?.... All the songs you asked me about....and you rarely ever ask....are by the same band and actually from the same album!!! So he says " that Zeppelin guy?" I said yes.... To which he enthusiasically replies " Well then that's gotta be the best Rock n Roll album ever made then!!" P.S. ..... And that's not even counting stairway to heaven !!
So I started listening to reaction videos on UA-cam when the pandemic started. I got onto yours because you were reacting to a song by yes which is my favorite band :-). But I have found you to be the best person to watch react to a video because you are all about feeling the music and your reactions are so honest and pure for the music! Sometimes you may not know where a song is going but it makes me remember my reaction when I first heard the songs so many years ago. You actually make my day a little brighter everyday I watch one of your videos so I wanted to say thank you! Keep on doing what you doing!
@slarti bartfast yeah me too! It's crazy. Sometimes I spend hours a day(or night) watching Jamel & Mr Video & Half & Jai. I have to really force myself to not watch sometimes cuz I'm not getting anything done lol. My husband says I have a problem but they feel like family to me. If I'm having a bad day I come here & immediately feel better 😊
@@scarletjohnston741 - Jamel is a much loved man. These threads are so rare these days... no smack talk, no bull, just a bunch of folks groovin' on some fine tunes. I'm glad to be amongst such fine neighbors!
This is church music .. Some old southern church too.... I remember playing this over and over when I lost 2 in my unite 2005 ( in Iraq ).... RIP my brothers GSgt Brandon Pete & SFC Danny shoulock.
Those drums! That bass! Those vocals! That guitar! Those lyrics! This intense song has a strangely haunting vibe, like an ominous and otherworldly feel, dreadfully awesome.
I bought this album as soon as it was released , I must say my appreciation for it is much greater now than the day I brought it home that winter day in 75.
Lyle Chipperson i dont think hes saying it is western US sounding i believe he is saying it evokes a feeling that reminds him of western movies as in old cowboy movies
Omg my face is hurting from smiling watching you get into this great song, from a band that I love so much. I'm happy that you enjoy it as much as I do. 😁🤘🏻
Jones, Plant, Page and John are my life since the late 70s. I lost my dad to very tragic death and this was his wheelhouse. Every time they come on the radio, I like to pretend dad is talking to me through the grave. beautiful shit, this is!!! Welcome to our world brother!!!!!!! A Blues/rock mix is just like daily life. We will endure.
I was blessed to have a brother who is 15 years older than me. He introduced me to the most amazing music. Zeppelin being one of the first bands I ever listened to... I was 5, I think. Started playing guitar 4 years later. I'm 54 now, still listening to this amazing music and still playing guitar and enjoying it more and more. Love your reactions bro. Keep up the good reviews.
He's killing it for sure, there is a reason the band died with him, but honestly everyone brings their A game. JPJs bass is on fire, Page's slide guitar is a perfect delta-blues, hard rock fusion, Plant shows off great vocal range and control, plus he rocks that harmonica, and Bonham brings the thunder with some awesome fills in the latter half. This is my favorite LZ song and one of the rare times the band rises up to Bonham's level, it literally is 11 minutes of the best work from each member.
Bonham and Jonesy pushed everything that Jimmy Pages genius could manufacture to be even better, then the vocals of one of the greatest made it, well, I don't know enough adjectives except to say the best there ever was....
@@Pottedplants17 you obviously don't like greatness. He was by far the most influential drummer that walked this planet. You saying that tells me you are nothing but a jackass that has to be heard cause you have no confidence in yourself. And you know nothing about music. My guess is you listen to cardi b or some dumb shit like that.
@@jayhensley7681 I won't resort to name calling, you troglodyte. You've made an ass out of u and me. It's a funny Ginger Baker quote (might be a slight paraphrase).
"It's got a little western feel to it". More like a lot of blues feel to it, as Robert Plant and Jimmy page were heavily influenced by many blues legends (Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, etc.). But that was true of many rock bands in the 70's like Eric Clapton (and all the bands he was in), The Doors, The Rolling Stones, ZZ Top, etc.
Even though I grew up with Zep, and they are my all time favorite, down to the Zoso tattoo on my arm, watching with you and listening is like the first time all over again. Thank you again for your channel. It’s a much needed break from a world drowning in negativity.
They may have gifted us the framework, but no black people put it together like modern white soulful artists... it's our gift to them... as show by his reaction to it... disbelief... it's become something else in tone and energy.... white man's blues
Dirt Rules but it was more than framework. It was the essence, core , sweat and soul inspired generations in rock and jazz. We are beholden to the blues ancestors for transforming enormous suffering into an art form and unique expression.
@@TheDivayenta Enormous suffering is not the sole proprietary of black musicians.... the suffering of unrequited love, loss of a loved one.. and a hard life are the pains, truths of the white man's experience throughout history..... for a thousand years....no black people put it together like modern white soulful artists... it's our gift to them... as show by his reaction to it... disbelief... it's become something else in tone and energy..
It’s blues, at its finest. Zeppelin was the best, modern blues rock band ever. The only one, many might say. But all rock comes from the blues. They just kept it more pure, with modern firepower. They were a living tribute to the greatest, delta blues players that gave us the music we all loved at that time, and that all of today’s music actually comes from. And, it sure does make this boy smile all these years later.
As always John Paul Jones is looked over...it wasnt just bonham, who is fantastic....the input of the four quarters....but the rhythm section of jpj and bonham was the magic...a session musician and a farmer who was good at drums
@@seinfeld8812 you watch Jones play a double neck instrument with mandolin and guitar, while playing bass pedals from an organ, and you know who the real ace in the band was
The connection between Bonham and Page is really mind-blowing... All four members play off each other in a magical kind of way, but the guitar/drums combo is otherworldly.
Thank you, Jamel. Your face in this video is my face when i listen this incredible song in 1975; this is not rock or pop music, this is classical music. UA-cam maybe it's a family; thank you very much from Italy. I think you are a good person.
Jamel, the reason I love watching your reaction to so many of these songs is because you are pulling out and feeling the same things from those songs as I always have. It's like a link. It's like, "Yeah, he gets it."
You nailed it, brother. Every member of Zep was at the top of their game and are top tier even among the all-time greats on their respective instruments.
This is the song that always reminds me how good a slide guitar player Jimmy Page is. He plays slide on other songs but this one is so beautiful and powerful
I was telling another react channel that Jimmy is great because it's dirty, messy, and spellbinding (especially the 10 years gone live video). Alex Lifeson is the other side. He's technically perfect almost every time, so he's great in a different way.
Jamel I am going to make personal public statement...maybe it will help one of readers. I am an addict in recovery from opioids. CLEAN 18 MONTHS! WITH GODS HELP, LED ZEP AND YOU. I MADE IT ANOTHER DAY. THANKS FRIEND . #WEDORECOVER MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎅 YALL!!
If you haven't, go find the clip from "It Might Get Loud" of Page, The Edge, and Jack White jamming on this. We hear a lot about Plant's vocals, Page's guitar, and Bonham's drums; but we never quite say enough about John Paul Jones' bass.
The only problem with listening to Zeppelin is having to decide between playing air guitar or air drums.
Brak Yup! Sometimes I do both!!!
Sounds like you need to invite some friends round and make the band
Ha!
I allways fall for the drums
Truly a difficult choice

The GOAT for sure.
Yep 👍
All Jimmy Page wanted to do, was honor his contracts for live shows. He overshot by a mile. Err rather....a kilometer.
That's why they were a phenomenon, the only band to sell albums without selling singles to promote them.
Physical Graffiti. Possibly the best rock album ever. All killer, no filler.

Very true
And let's not forget that it's a DOUBLE ALBUM. Find me a bad song. I dare you.

Devastating

Portia De Vere Yep! Well, I was on drugs, actually...
We sure did didn't we?!! Blessed we were to have grown up with music that was magical
All us young ones thought that music this good was normal and to be expected. We had no idea that we were very privileged to grow up with this music.

What band today can play a 15 minute song that is pure gold,and features every band member 👌
Amen brotha, amen.
Nothing like sitting in your garage on an old couch, with old friends and old whiskey, and a little smoke and remembering your youth of 45 years ago. Thank you for reviewing this absolute classic!
I'd join ya, and I'm 18. Lol.
Enjoy
They left the cough in at the end as a way to showing their detractors, this is them, live, together, in the studio killing it. The best there ever was.
@M 40 Jimmy had the first quote as he was recording it.
amen
@Raymond Rocha That's how you knew they were keeping it real. Man we were so lucky to grow up with this.
When John Bonham was born, God said, ' And this man shall play drums like none you have ever seen or heard, I have said this to be and it will be so'. GOD
😇
Was thinking it’ll be my send off song too. Hope I’m there in spirit✌️
Imagine if he never died
We’re not even debating who’s the best ever
Zeppelin & then everyone else get in line!
And it was good
@@shaunthorton7090 🤣
Man, Bonzo's work on the kick drum here is just otherworldly. Soooo good!
Led Zeppelin at their best. Nothing like Zeppelin blues.
always and forever
One of the most complex sounds in music, Led Zeppelin. I grew up in a glorious time in music.
Billsfan2012 I did also & I’m so thankful for that 🎸🎶🎤💙
led zeppelin the best damn rock and roll band that ever was . true when I was 14 . Still is at 54 .
True for me at at 14 - that was 1971 (Stairway To Heaven released) and I'm 62 ..

@@vickiebarnes8114 we had the time of our lives bless you 🙏 ❤
Led Zeppelin had the feel of being the adult rock band. Their songs went far beyond partying, drinking, sex, drugs, etc. I liked them as a kid but I found true appreciation for Led Zep when I became an adult and the depth of their songs was more understandable.
I never heard this song from them until your reaction video. Went to buy the download and it was only available if the whole album was bought. I bought the whole album, no regrets.
Physical Graffiti is they're Wonderwork. The Apex, The Pinnacle.
One of the landmark albums of that era.
Hands down for me the best album. Smart choice!
You hit on the thing there Alexander ... back then we bought the album (vinyl) ... and we got about 45mins of greatness ... not just one track. Enjoy :) (67yo)
@@smc8440 agreed!
Young folks tend to roll their eyes when us old fogies talk about the good old days, but you have to admit, we knew how to rock!
Indeed. Envy you!!
Respect your roots!
The soundtrack of my youth.
Absolutely
I’m 29 and grew up on this, although I didn’t truly appreciate it as much as I do today. I guess it’s because we still had some great music growing up in the 90s like Alice In Chains, Blind Melon, Soundgarden, Counting Crows, Jeff Buckley, Black Crowes...just to name a few. But with the absolute garbage out nowadays it makes me truly appreciate the greatness of the music we had back then.
"In My Time of Dying" (also called "Jesus Make Up My Dying Bed" or a variation thereof) is a traditional gospel music song that has been recorded by numerous musicians. The title line, closing each stanza of the song, refers to a deathbed and was inspired by a passage in the Bible from Psalms 41:3 "The Lord will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing, thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness".
So much there I didn't know and I bought every LZ off the press. Thank you for your contribution
raxxtango yes, thank you. I’m die hard Zeppelin to the core and that’s news to me. Awesome!
The most well-known and probable source of Zeppelin's *cough* *cough* "inspiration" is Blind Willie Johnson, recorded around 1928 or so.
Nobody does it like Zeppelin though! Page, Plant, Bonham, Jones = Hammer of The gods
Thanks for postibg this.
This song really is a masterpiece. The lyrics pulls you, the music drags you back, kind of cracks open your soul some. Zep was pretty magical, they aren't legendary for tight pants and power chords. They were legit, stands the test of time. Thanks for letting me hear again for the first time, a blessing.
✨🙏🏽🥰
you forgot to mention their hardcore crowley/ satanic edge
Its a cover. Blind Willie Johnson
When speaking of the single greatest rock and roll band EVER there's only 2 words: Led Zeppelin
They understood how much blues there needs to be in good rock and roll if you want that sex/swagger/danger/mayhem vibe to come through. I couldn't name my favorite LZ song because it changes with my mood, but even some of my least favorite songs I still listen to from beginning to end because they're never bad; in fact, they're always damn good.
Absolutely!
Hey Led Zeppelin.. hold my beer!

@@imnotagoldenoldie39 floyd couldnt do this song justice in 10 thousand lifetimes
@Large Moving Box barely anyone today even remembers the yardbirds. They had one good song; for your love. Please

Physical Graffiti is a masterpiece of an album.
Masterpiece
Yes it is brother
Such a powerful force
You're right I love his reactions to Zeppelin songs
John Bonham attempting to pound out a passage to the center of the earth with a drum kit. Close your eyes when you listen to this. When you open them, you’re surprised your house is still standing. It is a masterpiece
Absolutely!!
I'm 76 years old and have been a Zep fan since they started the band: four genius musicians magically brought together by Jimmy Page, greatest guitarist EVER! 💕💕💕💕
BEST ROCK BAND EVER!!
This was played at my mates funeral years ago...so moving. RIP Noel Kippax
Sorry for your loss , but this had to be moving .
more then 10 years now and I am still sold on having Macy Grays The Letter at mine, song has the same meaning. I should tell my relatives
RIP Noel Kippax
Your memory lives on
❤️
Rock On Noel Kippax
Imagine the first time ever hearing this song was seeing them perform it live. That's what I got to witness early in their '75 tour, before the album with this on it (Physical Graffiti) hit record stores.
I bought every Zeppelin album as soon as it was released, & saw them in concert 3 times. So usually when I saw them I already knew each song. But it was a real treat that at THAT particular concert they did some songs that were brand new & unheard, including this one, "Kashmir" & "Trampled Underfoot".
The album was a magnificent double album, it became available just a couple of days after that concert, & you know I ran out immediately to buy it & get it into my hot little hands.💙
Check out over the hills and far away by zeppelin.. it's great
Deborah Cornell yep I saw the physical graffiti tour I don’t know if it was 76 or 77 I’m leaning 76
@@Caseydog3
It was '75. They toured January through March. "Physical Graffiti" was released in February.
We drove to St. Louis, a 4 hr drive, only to find out Robert had strep throat & that concert was postponed. So we had to drive back several days later. But, as you know, it was SO worth it!
I was lucky enough to see them again on the '77 tour. And the first time was in '70. So glad you got to see them as well. They were special.
Deborah Cornell you have a better memory than me!😂 too much weed taking a toll on my older self🥳
Deborah Cornell - now tell us the REAL juicy stories lady ... ha ha ha - one simply does NOT have a history like yours merely to write a straight up UA-cam comment without some “Juice” wink wink ha ha ha.
Those drums needed a trauma center when Bonham was done
He beat them like they owed him money
@THE URANIUM CAFE one of their best
@THE URANIUM CAFE some has music taste, some not... and you know on which side you are...
bonham and carry... greatest of their time... and there are rally some on youtube thinking, ullrich would be better...^^^^^^^^
Lol- yup! Bill Ward was another one known for devastating his drums. I'm certain they wanted to call the police on him a time or two.
It's amazing how well Led Zep's music stands tall after all these years. By no means do I mean to diminish the countless talented musicians out there, many of whom I love, but there's Zeppelin and there's everyone else. These guys were so far ahead of their time and truly on an entirely different level. Loved the reaction video!
And Black Sabbath, equally awawesome.
@@michaelbruns449Don't be ridiculous. To compare Sabbath to Zeppelin? Lol. They were both British bands...that's about it.
There not ahead of there time they where inspired by blues musicians that played 40 years before them.
I’ve been listening to Zeppelin my entire life. Seeing you get all amped up gives me goosebumps ! 🍻
I was 5 in 1975 & I remember hearing Black Dog & it has been my favorite Led Zeppelin song since then & my favorite band since.
This is a straight up dirge, in the Delta Blues tradition, and is built on several similar earlier songs. At this point in their career, Led Zeppelin was doing very little of the traditional blues songs. They came up in that late 60s British blues revival scene, and at least half of their first album are reimagined versions of traditonal blues songs. Once they had an audience, though, they stuck mainly to originals. So when they went back to these blues roots, you knew it was going to be worth their time, and yours.
It is a (slide guitarist) Blind Willie Johnson (Beaumont, TX) cover (as is Nobody's Fault But Mine):

I remember some TV documentary saying that deep down, they were a blues band, but that "they played the blues like it had never been played before".
Agree. And This to Led Zep is what Beggars Banquet is to the Stones.
Zep made their own brand of the blues
@@balthazarblue yea they took the blues and electrified it. The White Stripes do something similar, Death Letter is my favorite from them and it's an old blues song turned up to 11.
The documentary It Might Get Loud is worth the watch, just fastforward through the Edge's segments.
I swear they don't make a bad song! Jimmy Page...best guitarist ever! You are listening to the greatest band there ever was!
They're ok. ;)
@@PeterTea ha
check out koda :(
Super great fun song to play too on guitar too, makes you feel like a God.. You can thank Blind Willie Johnson for this jam.
Uh, no. VERY overrated
JPJ and Bonham holding down the song like a brick s**thouse while Page plays all around it and Plant wails those bluesy lyrics. Masterpiece, indeed!
Welcome to Zeppelin's longest song. I'm always amazed how those 11 minutes and 6 seconds fly by though. This song is an epic masterpiece.
Your right, that didn't even occur to me !
Try Dazed and Confused live at Madison Square Garden, it's about 30 minutes long and on Spotify
Masterpiece by blind willie johnson
You , " this is a masterpiece !"
Me , " They haven't even gotten to the break yet !"
damn... forgot how sick this song was.. thanks for posting and reacting :)
Same here. You hear it again and you're just like "fuck, this song is amazing."
Me too. Get used to only the songs they play on the radio
I love how you younger folks are responding and appreciating music I grew up with. It makes me happy. It also makes me happy to see my 16 year old son wear Zeppelin shirts, and that he wants me to teach him the songs on guitar. I was seriously worried that instruments were going to go the way of cursive. But there's been a resurgence of young people loving classic 70's and 80's rock, and they want to learn how to play it.
Some. Of them know great music 🎶
True story here no b.s.
We had a shop when I was a kid and when I was old enough to help my dad I would go in because he was already there good and early and he knew I was a teenage music hound so ...when I'd walk in the door usually well before we'd open he would have the radio blasting away.
So he'd ask me....." Hey son?...who's playin' this song?" I'd say well that's led Zeppelin Black Dog.
Another day I'd be there...." Hey son who's doing this song?"....that's led Zeppelin Rock n Roll...a while later...." This that Led Zeppelin again?" Yes that's called When the Levee Breaks...and not long later he'd ask and I'd say that's Going to California... Zeppelin again!
Now this is over a time period of a few months so then I tell him....you know pops?.... All the songs you asked me about....and you rarely ever ask....are by the same band and actually from the same album!!!
So he says " that Zeppelin guy?" I said yes....
To which he enthusiasically replies
" Well then that's gotta be the best Rock n Roll album ever made then!!"
P.S. ..... And that's not even counting stairway to heaven !!
Pops knows best!
Nice. Thanks for sharing
Awesome story!!
Seriously man, I envy you. I grew up on this music. I can only imagine, what it must be like, to be older and listen to this music for the first time.
Yeah I only heard the jam I didn't get the whole picture. I still love it though.
Say it bro
Thats why we watch these videos to re live it & share in the joy
RosgarTheFrog I’m not envious, I got to listen to this for the past 50 yrs, still do and till I die
So I started listening to reaction videos on UA-cam when the pandemic started. I got onto yours because you were reacting to a song by yes which is my favorite band :-). But I have found you to be the best person to watch react to a video because you are all about feeling the music and your reactions are so honest and pure for the music! Sometimes you may not know where a song is going but it makes me remember my reaction when I first heard the songs so many years ago. You actually make my day a little brighter everyday I watch one of your videos so I wanted to say thank you! Keep on doing what you doing!

I swear John Bonham was drumming with the fat end of a pool que, instead of a drum stick!! That man was the BEST!!
Those snare runs... He was just too fucking good.
Oh yes he was
He used the fattest available sticks (fact).
The first three sides of Physical Graffiti is a John Bonham showcase. He was SO good on it.
Friggin a he was and is the best of the best!!!@@@.🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Zeppelin arguably the best rock band ever. Kick ass delta blues here.
You bring me joy watching your genuine appreciation of music.
Those drums! That bass! Those vocals! That guitar! Those lyrics! This intense song has a strangely haunting vibe, like an ominous and otherworldly feel, dreadfully awesome.
Starts as a dirge, appropriate to the title.
It contains the inevitability of death, for better or worse!
You've just been treated to the greatest drummer that ever existed.
janielle Delaney. NO ARGUMENT THERE. I got KEITH MOON in there also with BONZO. exhibits 1 & 1A!!!!
Bonzo is another level.
I know, just realized how delayed that back beat is and I've heard the song a lot. Bonzo was funk before funk.
Absolutely !!
One of the greatest guitarists and vocalists ever as well. Basically just one of the greatest bands to ever exist.
Dark, ominous and brilliant, Led Zeppelin was firing on all cylinders on this turbo-charged version of the blues.
I was playing this yesterday. When page hit his first solo, my 5 yr old stopped what he was doing said "daamn".

The closer I get to Death the more of a masterpiece this song becomes.
I bought this album as soon as it was released , I must say my appreciation for it is much greater now than the day I brought it home that winter day in 75.
Damn isn't that the truth Rich.
What song could ever do justice to the idea of "my time of dying"? This song.
No Auto tuning, no sampling, true musicians. All analog, not digital.

Just stolen music and lyrics 🤣
@@luthierjustin1 rubbish, one of the best tracks of all time , pure rock.
Wayne Dome too bad it’s stolen directly from old blues songs

Care to explain this?
I just discovered Led Zeppelin this year 🤦♂️ music ahead of its time
Many blues rock bands in that era. Classic Rock .
enjoy
Welcome to the rabbit hole.
Nope. It is music IN its time. Nothing has risen to that level since that time.
So that means you are spoiled forever for that rap-grape
JPJ's fretless bass line is the hidden gem in this masterpiece!
I don’t think that there wasn’t an instrument JPJ couldn’t manipulate in any song! Play some “NO QUARTER”
that sound is not "western" it's "southern" that's slide guitar. and its roots are in old old OLD blues music made by black people in the south.
Music from the muddy waters of the Mississippi.
I agree, not western at all
Robert Johnson, Elmore James, Howling Wolf, and so many more masterful Blues men. The Blues reach down deep in your soul.
yeah that's what I thought it sounded like old blues music from the south
Lyle Chipperson i dont think hes saying it is western US sounding i believe he is saying it evokes a feeling that reminds him of western movies as in old cowboy movies
This is 1 reason Bonham is the best drummer ever!!
Yes.
@@andrewkeller4846 yes
his drumming just drove the entire song and let everybody shake the body
He’s up there. Still Danny Carey is the 🐐
@@vcgchuco Carey got nothing on bonzo
Bonham's beatin'them drums like they owed him money,and Jimmy's slide daring them to call the cops!!
With John Paul taunting them while Robert mocks them.
Oh, I am keepin' that. In return, you may have - 'Imma count to seven, and I'm starting at four!'!!
Omg my face is hurting from smiling watching you get into this great song, from a band that I love so much. I'm happy that you enjoy it as much as I do. 😁🤘🏻
Jones, Plant, Page and John are my life since the late 70s. I lost my dad to very tragic death and this was his wheelhouse. Every time they come on the radio, I like to pretend dad is talking to me through the grave. beautiful shit, this is!!! Welcome to our world brother!!!!!!! A Blues/rock mix is just like daily life. We will endure.
The hip hop groove isJohn Bohnam’s double pound brilliance lay down that total heavy backbeat. Masterpiece is right!!
My favorite Zepplin tune. Never be another Bonzo Bohnam, his Rhythms are so tight and intense. Brilliant jimmy page. A true homage to the end!!
Not called bonzo for nothing🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Maiko100876 You do know tgeir talent came from demons, yes?
If you think this is Bonham's best, you clearly have not listened to "Four sticks"
@@aaronknox395 well , all of his stuff is excellent born drummer .
@@bearclawandcoffee7271 nope, fairies and unicorns, read the book?
I was blessed to have a brother who is 15 years older than me. He introduced me to the most amazing music. Zeppelin being one of the first bands I ever listened to... I was 5, I think. Started playing guitar 4 years later. I'm 54 now, still listening to this amazing music and still playing guitar and enjoying it more and more. Love your reactions bro. Keep up the good reviews.
The star/hero of this song/arrangement is JOHN BONHAM. He is the glue holding this together.
Good point . He pushed em !
He's killing it for sure, there is a reason the band died with him, but honestly everyone brings their A game. JPJs bass is on fire, Page's slide guitar is a perfect delta-blues, hard rock fusion, Plant shows off great vocal range and control, plus he rocks that harmonica, and Bonham brings the thunder with some awesome fills in the latter half.
This is my favorite LZ song and one of the rare times the band rises up to Bonham's level, it literally is 11 minutes of the best work from each member.
Bonham and Jonesy pushed everything that Jimmy Pages genius could manufacture to be even better, then the vocals of one of the greatest made it, well, I don't know enough adjectives except to say
the best there ever was....
The drumming on this piece is absolutely insane.
Must be a drummer 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Zep. Rules!
For me, Bonham is still the greatest drummer ever. Get in deep and you'll learn.
Paice, Ward, Bruford and Palmer aren't far behind.
Look up Buddy Rich
jon bonham was a good drummer, but he couldn't swing a sack of shit
@@Pottedplants17 you obviously don't like greatness. He was by far the most influential drummer that walked this planet. You saying that tells me you are nothing but a jackass that has to be heard cause you have no confidence in yourself. And you know nothing about music. My guess is you listen to cardi b or some dumb shit like that.
@@jayhensley7681 I won't resort to name calling, you troglodyte. You've made an ass out of u and me. It's a funny Ginger Baker quote (might be a slight paraphrase).
"It's got a little western feel to it". More like a lot of blues feel to it, as Robert Plant and Jimmy page were heavily influenced by many blues legends (Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, etc.). But that was true of many rock bands in the 70's like Eric Clapton (and all the bands he was in), The Doors, The Rolling Stones, ZZ Top, etc.
I’ve been listening to this song for 35 years.
I just got goosebumps like I never heard it before!
Even though I grew up with Zep, and they are my all time favorite, down to the Zoso tattoo on my arm, watching with you and listening is like the first time all over again. Thank you again for your channel. It’s a much needed break from a world drowning in negativity.
You’re hearing that Delta Blues vibe, son! The black people’s literal gift to us all.
They may have gifted us the framework, but no black people put it together like modern white soulful artists... it's our gift to them... as show by his reaction to it... disbelief... it's become something else in tone and energy.... white man's blues
Dirt Rules but it was more than framework. It was the essence, core , sweat and soul inspired generations in rock and jazz. We are beholden to the blues ancestors for transforming enormous suffering into an art form and unique expression.
Karen Nyere True! I have been playing blues on the harmonica for over 35 yrs.
Jim Chumley I guess Dirt Rules never heard of Jimi Hendrix, B.B., Buddy Guy, etc etc
@@TheDivayenta Enormous suffering is not the sole proprietary of black musicians.... the suffering of unrequited love, loss of a loved one.. and a hard life are the pains, truths of the white man's experience throughout history..... for a thousand years....no black people put it together like modern white soulful artists... it's our gift to them... as show by his reaction to it... disbelief... it's become something else in tone and energy..
This band is the real deal! Professional musicians with exceptional talent.
Led Zeppelin just makes me tear up out of happiness! Genius ..
It’s blues, at its finest. Zeppelin was the best, modern blues rock band ever. The only one, many might say. But all rock comes from the blues. They just kept it more pure, with modern firepower. They were a living tribute to the greatest, delta blues players that gave us the music we all loved at that time, and that all of today’s music actually comes from. And, it sure does make this boy smile all these years later.
the ace in the hole that Zep had on any other band of their time was John Bonham
He was the greatest rock drummer ever imo.
...and John Paul Jones, Robert Plant, Jimmy Page. All were and remain unmatched.
John Paul Jones was Zeps Secret Weapon, he could play any instrument
As always John Paul Jones is looked over...it wasnt just bonham, who is fantastic....the input of the four quarters....but the rhythm section of jpj and bonham was the magic...a session musician and a farmer who was good at drums
@@seinfeld8812 you watch Jones play a double neck instrument with mandolin and guitar, while playing bass pedals from an organ, and you know who the real ace in the band was
At 4:40 "this is a masterpiece" and I'm like, dude, they haven't even hit you yet
The connection between Bonham and Page is really mind-blowing... All four members play off each other in a magical kind of way, but the guitar/drums combo is otherworldly.
Shit is fire when its 11 minutes long and you're sad to see it end.
100% true shit right there
The best comment I've ever read!!!
I've never heard this before and this is BADASS!..
I know -- where's it been all my life

Thank you, Jamel. Your face in this video is my face when i listen this incredible song in 1975; this is not rock or pop music, this is classical music. UA-cam maybe it's a family; thank you very much from Italy. I think you are a good person.
Achille's Last Stand or Ten Years Gone are a must

Achilles Last Stand doesn't mess around

The Lemon Song. Hands down, one of the best bass lines ever. It has EVERYTHING! Singing, guitar, drums and bass. Don't forget the bass!
I'm almost 60, and watching you react to these songs takes me back to when I was 13 or 14, hearing them for the first time. Keep doing what you do!
The slide guitar bites in and doesn't let go!!! Love the reaction and appreciation of the music
Jamel, the reason I love watching your reaction to so many of these songs is because you are pulling out and feeling the same things from those songs as I always have. It's like a link. It's like, "Yeah, he gets it."
You nailed it, brother. Every member of Zep was at the top of their game and are top tier even among the all-time greats on their respective instruments.
This is by far one of their best songs. A true rock n' roll epic, high there w/ Achilles Last Stand, their two most accomplished songs IMO.
I love how around the five minute mark you look us in the eye, - and we all witness it together.
This is the song that always reminds me how good a slide guitar player Jimmy Page is. He plays slide on other songs but this one is so beautiful and powerful
For all of Jimmy's accolades, his slide guitar is underrated.
I was telling another react channel that Jimmy is great because it's dirty, messy, and spellbinding (especially the 10 years gone live video). Alex Lifeson is the other side. He's technically perfect almost every time, so he's great in a different way.
@@Billis75 And Jimmy is one of Alexs' favorite players.
Mmmhmm. Travelling Riverside Blues is another great slide performance by Jimmy.
Page and Bonhams chemistry was once in a millennia.
Rich Diana And none of it could have happened without JPJ’s incredible bass
That of Bonham and John Paul Jones too
Jpj was the glue
It was the backbone of Zeppelin. Few people realize it.
Andrew Trotter John Paul Jones one of the best bass guitarists of all times. A whole different level

If you haven't, go find the clip from "It Might Get Loud" of Page, The Edge, and Jack White jamming on this.
We hear a lot about Plant's vocals, Page's guitar, and Bonham's drums; but we never quite say enough about John Paul Jones' bass.
Sharla I've been teling people about that clip for years. Watch Jimmy, he moves the same as when he was young. Kashmir . Unbelievable
