Yes, it is. I've seen people CRY, listening for the first time. Thank God for YT, for ensuring that we can see these unforgettable performances for all time. And this is one of those rare ones.
I cry every time I hear it and I've heard it so many times. No other band does this for me. They simply are the best and this song is another one of their masterpieces.
The greatest blues song by the greatest band...mastery of dynamics and call and response with guitar and vocals underpinned by the greatest rhythm section and subtle jazzy keys. Jimmy shows why he is Lord of the Strings!
If you watch the film "The Song Remains the Same" there is a different and better version of this song, which was filmed on a different night of this 3 night stand at Madison Square Garden. It includes some audience reactions that hint at the atmosphere of this show. Also keep in mind that a typical Zeppelin show during this time was over 3 hours long. How Plant managed to preserve his voice is nothing short of miraculous. He still sounds amazing at 74!
This one is identical in spots, and different in others, both musically and visually. For example, the different SYOS version starts out with a different shot of Plant on the opening line, with lots of imaging, echo and reverb, and the line "people I know you don't think that's right," while this one starts out with a first shot of Plant singing from way down low below him, and "people I don't think that's right" in that same spot. Personally, I like the different SYOS version a bit better: ua-cam.com/video/1gHlbHtdVLU/v-deo.html
Don’t worry about a few days off, life goes on outside of YT. Always love to see reactions to this performance, they were in their absolute prime at this point and an unstoppable force!
San Diego, 1970. Led Zeppelin solo concert (multi hours long). I was a big Yardbirds fan; and loved Zep (LZ1 please) from day 1. I’m in the audience. They start off with Immigrant Song. Plant WAILS for minute after minute. You can feel the entire arena inching to the edge of our seats in thrill. Then JPJ touches the bass; the seats actually VIBRATE! and the crowd rises in unison and SCREAMS our heads off!
the studio version jimmy plugged into a random amp and never touched it, then he kicked out that improv solo in 1 go 1st take!! the engineer who recorded it says its the best solo he ever heard in his life
Just so you know, that pop up that comes in half way through the song is because the powers that be decided to make an OFFICAL video of this song 2 or 3 years ago where they chose a different, slightly inferior version of the song than the one that was the original here on you tube. I believe it was recorded a different night. I know right away that its the newer version because when Page does the solo in the beginning, you can see four of him playing and in the original you can only see 3 of him. I also think this versions opening solo is a bit shorter. But am not positive on that. Also, when Plant starts to sing, he comes in slightly earlier with no delay after the solo. In this version, the solo stops for half a beat before he starts to sing. Page's second solo is a bit different and smoother to me. And for some reason the camera spends half the time on JPJ during the solo and we have to stare at that bad wig he has on instead of watching Jimmy play. LOL. But the biggest change is the camera zooms in on the crowd a lot. You see one young lady clearly wasted, several times and after Page's second solo, the camera zooms in on a cop who is watching in awe, then onto one of the prettiest women I have ever seen. She is olive skinned with long black hair and is wearing some kind of hooded, almost monk like white robe. She is often been mistaken for Plant's wife. She at one point just shakes her head in disbelief as Plant is singing. Except for the JPJ camera thing, I feel the original version is superior to this one. Luckily I have it on dvd. :) It's almost sad that I notice the differences. LOL.
Imagine you go to see Plant, in one of his earlier bands. And after only the first song, saying we HAVE to get this guy for our vocalist? That's pretty much how it happened.
Hey,Wesley thanks ror reacting to one of my suggestions. Can't wait for Beth Hart's reactions to be honest lol.By the way,she is a big Led Zeppelin fan too.She made a tribute album to them not long time ago.And about what you said about Robert's voice,she maybe is the only one who can do it right now imo. Just watch "Am i the one" that i already suggested and from the same concert her cover of Zeppelin's "Whole lotta love". Hope everything worked out well for you with work and stuff my friend. Take care.
Plant’s voice changed the most, in my opinion in the ‘73 tour ( start to notice in ‘72). I’ve seen Led Zeppelin multiple times every American tour starting in March 1970 through their last US tour in 1977.
You really can't miss with Zeppelin! Definitely check out Kashmir - live Celebration Day Tour Or if you want something different Pink Floyd "Echoes" (Part 1) live at Pompeii 1972 No Audience, No Lights, No Pyrotechnics!
would love to hear your thoughts/reaction to THREE DOG NIGHT'S SONG "WELL I'VE NEVER BEEN TO SPAIN" so beautiful, but so much control w a great build up
@@rwesleyslaven another great guitarist is jeff healy, who is blind. jimi has, imho been the greatest guitarist since i first heard him 60-ish yeaers ago. stevie ray vaughn is very good, no question, but jeff healy gives jimi a run for his money, w an awesome stage presence
Sorry, in that I do this everytime someone reacts to this Zeppelin Song. But I think if even 1 of every 20 members who reads it, goes and listens to this cover. By a 15 year old girl. Who had only been playing guitar for 2 years at this point? You won't be sorry for listening. She's hella amazing & I think you'll agree. She just plays with the album, straight up but.....

Hi Wesley. Thanks for this reaction. I just think your backing music, when you talk, is too loud and too far from what we just heard. Better no music at all behind your voice.

I love the live of this song, they do this live absolutely perfect, & I’ve seen it so many times.
They were, are and WILL ALWAYS BE the ultimate rock band.
Oh absolutely. I think I'm going to make a few videos about the actual history of the band too at some point.
Dont you mean band ?, listen to their folk & blues stuff, its equally as good as their rock.
Yes, it is. I've seen people CRY, listening for the first time.

Zeppelin 3 also my favorite. Saw them live five times. Rock Gods.
I’m jealous.
You lucky @@&#%%@&!!!!
Lucky!
That " Weird note " at the end is perfect. Because it breaks all the rules of music. And that's exactly what ZePPeLiN was known for.
Indeed! Ending the way they wanted.
The GOATS...PERIOD!!!!!!!!😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This song is perfection. A real piece of art.
I couldn’t agree more. As far as blues goes, there’s not many better

Sorry SRTS, not SYOS
The one on msg is edited and patched. This is the real one
I hope things better for you! It does my heart good to see younger people enjoy great music.
Best blues ever...best band ever!
Love this!! Thanks for playing it and ….loving it too!!

Absolutely. I’d give anything to have been at one of these concerts

Superb!!
in honor of Led Zeppelin I had to give you an even 200 in subscriptions.
YOU ARE THE GOAT

I can’t imagine Robert plant singing for someone who WASNT a famous band with chops like that

His range started to rapidly decline during the late 72 Japan shows and was more or less changed by jan 73 in england
@@promark5317 that’s true
@@allanbluzdude 77 was a good comeback. I actually enjoy the 77 style more than the early stuff
you need listen to this song! How many more time - Led Zeppelin
I’ll check it out!
Page = GOAT
You really can't miss with Zeppelin!
Definitely check out
Kashmir - live Celebration Day Tour
Or if you want something different
Pink Floyd "Echoes" (Part 1) live at Pompeii 1972
No Audience, No Lights, No Pyrotechnics!
I'll check those out!
They played almost nothing but blues, their entire 1st 2 albums. Classic Blues.
checkout > The Main Squeeze "Since I've Been Loving You" (Led Zeppelin Cover)
You got it!
jimmy tears it up on the intro!
Oh yeah he’s going wild. His sound in a time where pedals weren’t really a thing is mind blowing
@@rwesleyslaven he really makes it SING doesnt he
BTW there are a couple of different recordings (I assume it was multiple nights?) but anyway the other recording I think is actually even better😉
Someone else mentioned that the recording from the Song Remains The Same video is better
'Odd acoustic tunings' on LZ III. Those are common English folk music tunings if you are referring to DADGAD tunings.
Not just DADGAD. There’s open G, and a variant open C for Friends that I know of. Maybe another couple
would love to hear your thoughts/reaction to THREE DOG NIGHT'S SONG "WELL I'VE NEVER BEEN TO SPAIN" so beautiful, but so much control w a great build up
I’ll give it a listen

Video as good as Music - LIVE.

This is the blues but not your regular 12 bar blues. This is taking the blues somewhere strange and wonderful
It is by far one of the best songs ever, period.
@@rwesleyslaven got to agree with you on that
do kashmir live 1979
You got it!
I much prefer the studio version.
It’s definitely the best “fit” version. Solo is perfect, vocal notes perfect, not too long and not too short.
If you want to hear a perfect blues song, listen to Boz Scaggs' "Brother loan me a dime" with Duane Allman
Hi Wesley. Thanks for this reaction. I just think your backing music, when you talk, is too loud and too far from what we just heard. Better no music at all behind your voice.
Thanks for the feedback. I’m actually in the process of finding a more rock/blues backing. I’ll turn it down
