One of the greatest things about this band is they definitely have a feel! Robert’s vocals convey so much emotion along with every instrument. As you’ll find his voice IS an instrument.
Thank you for reacting. Thank you for enjoying it. Many folks don't understand what a levee is. If one is about to break, you don't want to be in the path of the water it holds back. Because crying won't help you and praying won't do you no good.
Led Zeppelin are the GOATS. Four amazingly gifted musicians ; each considered to be among the best, if not the best, of all time at their respective instrument. They have never recorded a bad song. They're not all great, but none of them are bad. Start with Led Zep I and go track by track thru the discography. A whole new sonic world awaits.....
Zeppelin...greatest band in history!! Robert was amazing on the harmonica! Zeppelin did alot of blues! Try Since I've Been Loving You!! Robert Plant vocals/harmonica Jimmy Page guitars John Bonham drums John Paul Jones bass/keyboards /mandolin/Mellatron/banjo and everything else!! THAT IS ZEPPELIN!!
Zeppelin have a lot of great blues and blues/rock tracks. You Shook Me, Dazed and Confused, I Can’t Quit You Baby and How Many More Times. And those are all from just their first album.
"When the Levee Breaks" is a country blues song written and first recorded by Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McCoy in 1929. The lyrics reflect experiences during the upheaval caused by the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927.
@@otterrufus and the flood resulted in a massive migration of black citizens living in unprotected low lying areas to move up the Mississippi to Chicago where there were jobs since their land in the south was unworkable for a while. They brought with them the Delta Blues and in a short time Chicago became famous for its Blues Scene.
Great reaction! You have to do so much more. Led Zeppelin: Jimmy Page is the guitarist. Robert Plant is the singer and harmonica. John Paul Jones is the bassist and keyboards. John Bonham is the drummer. BEST BAND EVER! Try their song, Dazed and Confused. One of my favorite Led Zeppelin songs. It will blow your mind.
So far beyond good. Led Zepplin was a band that got my husband and me together 48 years ago. After hearing them I bought a mandolin to lure my husband over to my house with his guitar. They do have a mandolin in some of their songs. Going to California.
Led Zeppelin's song "When the Levee Breaks" is about the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927. She talks about how the Mississippi overflowed its banks and flooded coastal fields and villages. Then 13 thousand residents of the city of Greenville in Mississippi hastily moved to a nearby dam that had not been destroyed by the flood. Many residents of flooded areas lost all their property and were forced to go to Midwestern cities in search of work and a roof over their heads. In addition to the direct meaning associated with the destruction of a dam during a flood, the song also contains another, important allegorical meaning.
I would recommend ‘since I’ve been loving you’ if your interested in hearing another bluesy track by them. Just to let you know, the original track was recorded in 1929 by Memphis Minnie & Kansas Joe McCoy….. Jimmy Page just fused rock into it with loads of echo & delay on the drums. The version you just heard was recorded just up the road from where I live in a stately home called ‘Headley Grange’ & Bonzo’s drums were recorded in the entrance hall, to get that ‘echoey’ effect.
Since I've been Loving You, Led Zeppelin III. Both vinyl version, and live at Madison Square Garden in 1973. As other says, go thru all from album 1. It's a journy in heaven because it's an evolution of sound.
You guys liked The Wizard by Black Sabbath. That’s awesome. Bill Ward, the drummer of Sabbath, and John Bonham, the drummer for Zeppelin, grew up in the same area and played at the same clubs together growing up. Bill is my second favorite drummer ever, John Bonham is #1. According to Bill Ward and most other drummers I have ever heard. Led Zeppelin, greatest band ever
Yes, The Wizard is one of our favorite songs we've had on the channel, from any artist or group, period. It's fantastic, which is why we have three versions of it. LOL
@@CoachCastTV Led Zeppelin is #1 for me overall, Black Sabbath is #2. If you want to have some amazing music to react to, do every song in order for each band. Good stuff.
The Great Mississippi Flood if 1927. The levee's all along the river near where the Ohio River pour in down to the delta in Louisiana. About 27,000 square miles of mostly farmland was underwater to depths of 50 feet. Over 700,000 people were displaced including over 200,000 African-Americans. It caused about 1 billion dollars in economic loss as it took several years for waters to recede or evaporate. The loss was in 1927 dollars, which was a third of the entire U.S. budget, todays cost equivelant dollars is nearly a trillion dollars. It caused one of the highest migration of people in our history, and most migrated to Chicago, then Detroit and other cities along the Great Lakes where the auto and steel industry's were really growing and gave them jobs.
Written in 1929 by Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McCoy about a devastating Mississippi flood in 1927. This is LZ ‘s rendition in 1971. I saw them twice in concert (Europe & in the US). They were unsurpassed by any other band I’ve ever seen 💜
LZ was formed in late August of 1968. John Bonham (the drummer) died suddenly in Sept of 1980, and the band decided they did not want to continue without him, so that was it. The surviving members did only 1 reunion, a 1-night show in 2007 in London for charity. There were 20 million requests for tickets for 18k+ seat arena! They had solo careers to some degree over the years, and a couple of team-ups between Jimmy Page (guitar) and Robert Plant (vocals & harmonica) but only Robert kept at it steadily. He is still touring, or at least was in 2022 at 74 yrs old. You really can't go wrong with anything of theirs you decide to listen to, they picked up the mantle from the Beatles and carried it until 1980.
@@CoachCastTV Not just "people" - Black sharecroppers by the tens of thousands, in the "Great Migration" that created the urban Black populations of today's northern cities. They brought their music with them, and that's how Chicago became a major center of blues and soul music. Amazing cascade of consequences, from when the levee broke. The flood covered 27,000 square miles (!) of land.
Arguably the greatest rock-n-roll band in history. They are third in the USA for total album sales at 111.5 million. The Eagles are at 120 million and the Beatles are at183 million. So, yes, if you havn't heart of these fellas......you might be living under a rock. Must listens: D'Yer Mak'er, Ramble On, Over The Hill, Trampled Under Foot. Thanks for reacting.
If you like "When the Levee Breaks", check out "Four Sticks" from the same album. Just as a by the way, "Four Sticks" was so named because John Bonham held two sticks in each hand when he laid down the percussion tracks for the song.
Definitely check out You Shook Me and Bring it on Home, both outstanding harmonica performances. For more incredible blues, I can’t quit you babe, babe I’m gonna leave you, dazed and confused, since I’ve been loving you…. Led Zeppelin doesn’t make bad songs honestly, so many many many fantastic, legendary, unique diverse songs. Kashmir. No Quarter. Simply incredible… The rabbit hole is deeper than you know.
We did "You Shook Me". Coach enjoyed, Mrs. Coach...not so much. Blues is a hard genre for her to embrace. We have another Led Zeppelin coming next week (Immigrant Song Live 1972).
“Over the Hills and Far Away”, “The Rain Song”, “Ten Years Gone”, “In the Light”, “Nobody’s Fault But Mine”, “The Lemon Song” “Ramble On”, “Fool In the Rain”….there’s a truckload more, but these should keep you busy for awhile..
@@kjmorley You'd be surprised to hear we have only heard a small number of Pink Floyd songs. LOL We grew up in the hair metal era and it was Van Halen, Def Leppard, Motly Crue, AC/DC, bands like that.
@CoachCastTV Ha ha, I am the opposite as I am an old fart. Only crossover for me of the ones you mentioned would be AC/DC. 😅 P.S. Consider adding Supertramp as well. 😁
As somebody mentioned below this song is about an actual event in the 1910's and the song was written shortly after. Apparently that flood killed tens of thousands and displaced hundreds of thousands.
The Genre is "Led Zeppelin" Seriously if you want an English Led zeppelin blues song you can't go wrong with 'Since I've been lovin you', especially the Live 73 MSG version.
A number of Zep's songs have a blues element to them - not all but there are quite few. The sometimes described themselves as a contemporary blues band. "Over the hills and far away' was always a favourite of mine. If you want to challenge Mrs Coach's sense of humour try an old ACDC song - 'Big Balls"
Generally when I play Led Zeppelin at home I do it down in my basement where I have insulation and hardwood paneling. I have 70's vintage Pioneer tower speakers with 12" woofers 7 inch mid range + tweeters. I also have Bose 301's on the opposite side of the room. It's all running out of a '76 Pioneer 850 SX Receiver/Amp which puts out "nominally" about 110 Watt's per channel. This was the system I wanted when I was a kid. It makes my windows shake in the house. Putting little earplugs into your ears does not do this music justice. At least get a decent pair of headphones. It's kind of like the sign or t-shirt, or meme. I don't always listen to Led Zeppelin, but when I do... So do my neighbors!
We can get the same or similar sound out of these buds as we get from my $400 Sony headphones. And they are easier to handle during the videos. Appreciate that you are an audiophile. We can hear what we need to hear. Thanks!
That's twice they've commented about Chicago, in the lyrics. Let me give you some historical context here. This song was originally written in the 1920s by a black man about homes destoyed by actual floods on the Mississippi River, and the lyrics are a reference to the great northern migration of black people going to the industrial cities of the north to find work. And, if you go north along the Mississippi River you pass through St. Louis and eventully come to Chicago.
Led Zeppelin was a staple of ours in High School, I would strongly suggest "Stairway to Heaven" and "Since I've Been Loving You" live at Madison Square Garden, also "Dazed and Confused" is an absolute must, along with "Immigrant Song" and "Achilles Last Stand" just to name a few.
Thanks. Never saw any of them live. I've heard Stairway to Heaven studio version and probably a few others that I don't know the names of at the moment. This song was very impressive so we'll add more of this band to our list for sure.
@@CoachCastTV I second 'Stairway to Heaven' and 'Since I've Been Loving You', both live at Madison Square Gardens 1973. If you want to go down the rabbit hole further down the line, their near 30 mins version of 'Dazed & Confused' at the same MSG concert is phenomenal.
This is one of the Mighty Zeps cover songs. The original blues number of ‘Levee’ was recorded by ‘Leadbelly’. This is the best version. Another powerful version is by a Zep cover band ‘Zepparella’. An all girl Zep cover band. Their version of Levee is incredible.
It's a foregone conclusion that you need to do every Led Zeppelin song ever recorded. Edgar and Johnny Winter "Tobacco Road" is great. There's a video with Stevie Ray playing Born Under a Bad Sign with one of the forefathers, Albert King.
Here's a blues suggestion you both might like, Midnight in Harlem by the Tedeschi Trucks Band from their Revelatory album. The live version from e-town is excellent.
I think it was me who named three harmonica songs and said two of them were blues. But you chose the one that is more rock! :) Though it has some blues too. Try the other two for blues. But I also mentioned if you want THE blues song to test if you like the blues, try Since I Been Loving You by Led Zeppelin. No harmonica but just amazing blues and my favourite LZ track :)
What songs sample the drums from When the Levee Breaks? Sampled: "When the Levee Breaks" Rhymin' & Stealin' Rhymin' & Stealin' Beastie Boys. ... Trout. Trout. Neneh Cherry. ... Army of Me. Army of Me. Björk. ... Taking Control. Taking Control. Aphex Twin. ... Return To Innocence. Return To Innocence. Enigma. ... Man Next Door. Man Next Door. Massive Attack. ... Midnight. Midnight. Ice T. ... Pearl. Pearl. Chapterhouse. plus others.
Since I've Been Loving You, Nobody's Fault But Mine, Bring It On Home, In My Time Of Dying, How Many More Times... Zep is blues on steroids and much more
@CoachCastTV That's a good one! Other Zep bluesy standouts are Since I've Been Loving You (live Madison Square Garden 1973), The Lemon Song, Traveling Riverside Blues, I Can't Quit You Baby (live Royal Albert Hall 1970), In My Time Of Dying (live Earls Court 1975), Hey, Hey, What Can I Do. All of these, live or studio versions, are off the charts! The live versions just show how phenomenal they were as musicians! Musicianship was unmatched. They could do it all. There are so many more songs. This just scratches the surface of their greatness!
Just found you guys, welcome to the mighty Led Zeppelin! Be prepared to lose your shorts over a hell of a lot of great songs! Sure if you want more harmonica and more blues from Led Zeppelin do You shook me or Bring it on home. But if you want to get right to the meat of their catalog, yes Stairway to Heaven is considered to be one of the greatest if not greatest classic rock songs of all time. But I would suggest next my personal favorite and what many consider the greatest hard rock riff of all time, Whole Lotta Love. Please do not do any live versions go right to the official studio version and enjoy! Zeppelin was capable of everything from very light to very heavy. Oh yeah, may I suggest that whenever you pause, rewind a few seconds before beginning again. New listeners will pause at a critical moment where you needed to hear the build up just before that point! Rock on!
@@peterbartolomeo5542 I like Hamburgers thanks 👍 and like I said I really like this particular song. And while I own all the Led Zep albums I just much prefer Sabbath and Deep Purple from this era.
Hi folks! I'm surprised to not see recommendations to check out this song, "When the Levee Breaks" covered by A Perfect Circle. Not only will you get a views bonanza, but boy, is it a different sound. (APC has a way with covers.) Love you guys!
"Stairway to Heaven". Before hearing it, you want to be in a chill mindset. It's not blues. I think it's folk rock, I never cared much for classifications. It's just amazing, iconic, transformative, and illegal to play in music stores. You're welcome in advance.
Some Zeppelin style electric blues rock: You Shook Me I Can't Quit You Baby (I highly recommend Live at The Royal Albert Hall 1970) How Many More Times (I highly recommend Live at Danmarks Radio 1969) The Lemon Song Since I've Been Loving You When the Levee Breaks In My Time of Dying (I highly recommend Live 1975 Earls Court) Boogie with Stu Tea for One Poor Tom
Nice job guys. Great song. 🙂 We try to make things too difficult. Led Zeppelin can't be called one type of band. They weren't any 1 type of music. They had a strong blues influence. They played heavy rock. They played folk. They played what one might call heavyi metal. They played one thing ALL the time..... great music. 🙂
Texas Flood is one Coach wants to do at some point. We actually listened to his version of Voodoo Child, but UA-cam blocked it and then the file was somehow corrupted and we could not post to Patreon. Mrs. Coach was complimentary of his talent, but did not care all that much for the song, unfortunately. Blues just doesn't resonate with her that much.
There's a pretty decent harmonica song from Blackfoot called Train Train. But then that brings to mind Aerosmith's version of Train Kept a Rollin from Get your wings. No harmonica but it puts you in mind of it.
One of the greatest things about this band is they definitely have a feel! Robert’s vocals convey so much emotion along with every instrument. As you’ll find his voice IS an instrument.
Greatest band in history, absolute gods of rock!! You guys please do " Bring it on home" if you like the harmonica you love this song.
Thanks for that tip, and for watching!
Thank you for reacting. Thank you for enjoying it. Many folks don't understand what a levee is. If one is about to break, you don't want to be in the path of the water it holds back. Because crying won't help you and praying won't do you no good.
Yes, this was a fantastic song and both of us really enjoyed this one. We're familiar with levees and you are correct.

We can get the same or similar sound out of these buds as we get from my $400 Sony headphones. And they are easier to handle during the videos. Appreciate that you are an audiophile. We can hear what we need to hear. Thanks!
The UK produce some of the best bands in the world hence LZ
That's twice they've commented about Chicago, in the lyrics. Let me give you some historical context here. This song was originally written in the 1920s by a black man about homes destoyed by actual floods on the Mississippi River, and the lyrics are a reference to the great northern migration of black people going to the industrial cities of the north to find work. And, if you go north along the Mississippi River you pass through St. Louis and eventully come to Chicago.
Love John Bonham working that high hat.
The book "The Warmth of Other Suns" tells the story of the migration of black people to northern cities around the time this song was written.
Nice one!
Led Zeppelin was a staple of ours in High School, I would strongly suggest "Stairway to Heaven" and "Since I've Been Loving You" live at Madison Square Garden, also "Dazed and Confused" is an absolute must, along with "Immigrant Song" and "Achilles Last Stand" just to name a few.
Thanks. Never saw any of them live. I've heard Stairway to Heaven studio version and probably a few others that I don't know the names of at the moment. This song was very impressive so we'll add more of this band to our list for sure.
@@CoachCastTV I second 'Stairway to Heaven' and 'Since I've Been Loving You', both live at Madison Square Gardens 1973. If you want to go down the rabbit hole further down the line, their near 30 mins version of 'Dazed & Confused' at the same MSG concert is phenomenal.
This is one of the Mighty Zeps cover songs. The original blues number of ‘Levee’ was recorded by ‘Leadbelly’. This is the best version. Another powerful version is by a Zep cover band ‘Zepparella’. An all girl Zep cover band. Their version of Levee is incredible.
That's awesome! Great name for a cover band. 👏
It's a foregone conclusion that you need to do every Led Zeppelin song ever recorded.
Edgar and Johnny Winter "Tobacco Road" is great. There's a video with Stevie Ray playing Born Under a Bad Sign with one of the forefathers, Albert King.
Hey ya'll
If you want to take a journey down the Led zeppelin blues rabbit hole listen to Led Zeppelin I the whole album. You wont be the same!
Here's a blues suggestion you both might like, Midnight in Harlem by the Tedeschi Trucks Band from their Revelatory album. The live version from e-town is excellent.
Tried to edit the spelling but couldn't. The album is Revelator
Got it. We truly appreciate it!
I think it was me who named three harmonica songs and said two of them were blues. But you chose the one that is more rock! :) Though it has some blues too. Try the other two for blues. But I also mentioned if you want THE blues song to test if you like the blues, try Since I Been Loving You by Led Zeppelin. No harmonica but just amazing blues and my favourite LZ track :)
Great! We appreciate the recommendations. At least Mrs. Coach liked this one, so there is hope.

Yes, you must do a reaction to You Shook me. Awesome!
We're going to try to film that this weekend sometime.
Since I've Been Loving You, Nobody's Fault But Mine, Bring It On Home, In My Time Of Dying, How Many More Times... Zep is blues on steroids and much more
Straight Delta blues groove. You can't get much bluesier than this unless it was orthodox blues.
We just reacted to "You Shook Me" and we're uploading to post soon. Thanks for watching.
@CoachCastTV That's a good one! Other Zep bluesy standouts are Since I've Been Loving You (live Madison Square Garden 1973), The Lemon Song, Traveling Riverside Blues, I Can't Quit You Baby (live Royal Albert Hall 1970), In My Time Of Dying (live Earls Court 1975), Hey, Hey, What Can I Do. All of these, live or studio versions, are off the charts! The live versions just show how phenomenal they were as musicians! Musicianship was unmatched. They could do it all. There are so many more songs. This just scratches the surface of their greatness!
Appreciate that list. Our knowledge of this band is extremely limited, but we do know a few of their songs.
The genre is “Led Zeppelin” 😁
Just found you guys, welcome to the mighty Led Zeppelin! Be prepared to lose your shorts over a hell of a lot of great songs! Sure if you want more harmonica and more blues from Led Zeppelin do You shook me or Bring it on home. But if you want to get right to the meat of their catalog, yes Stairway to Heaven is considered to be one of the greatest if not greatest classic rock songs of all time. But I would suggest next my personal favorite and what many consider the greatest hard rock riff of all time, Whole Lotta Love. Please do not do any live versions go right to the official studio version and enjoy! Zeppelin was capable of everything from very light to very heavy. Oh yeah, may I suggest that whenever you pause, rewind a few seconds before beginning again. New listeners will pause at a critical moment where you needed to hear the build up just before that point! Rock on!
Welcome to the channel. We appreciate all this info. We're also trying to remember to roll back after pausing. Hope to see you around!
You want good blues with harmonica Zeppelin has almost endless songs that will fit the bill.
We've heard that is the case!
Im not the biggest Led Zep fan (as opposed to Black Sabbath) but this one has always been pure heaven to me ❤
I feel sorry for you. Black Sabbath can't even stand on the same stage as Led Zeppelin. It's like comparing Filet mignon to hamburgers
@@peterbartolomeo5542
I like Hamburgers thanks 👍 and like I said I really like this particular song.
And while I own all the Led Zep albums I just much prefer Sabbath and Deep Purple from this era.
Delta blues song from 1927 by Memphis Minnie ❤
Song is based on a haunting historical tragedy.
Hi folks! I'm surprised to not see recommendations to check out this song, "When the Levee Breaks" covered by A Perfect Circle. Not only will you get a views bonanza, but boy, is it a different sound. (APC has a way with covers.) Love you guys!
Thanks for that suggestion, hadn't heard of them.
Yeah this is there version of a song by Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McCoy. This song here is a power house!
It was fantastic! We need to do another Led Zeppelin soon.
For blues, you aught to react to Since I’ve been loving you off of Led Zeppelin 3 album
Ok...sounds like they have several bluesy songs. Thanks!
"Stairway to Heaven". Before hearing it, you want to be in a chill mindset. It's not blues. I think it's folk rock, I never cared much for classifications. It's just amazing, iconic, transformative, and illegal to play in music stores.
You're welcome in advance.
If you don’t listen to Since I’ve been Loving You and don’t love it then you don’t like the blues
Mrs. Coach struggles with the blues. We just reacted to "You Shook Me". It should post in a few days.
Some Zeppelin style electric blues rock:
You Shook Me
I Can't Quit You Baby (I highly recommend Live at The Royal Albert Hall 1970)
How Many More Times (I highly recommend Live at Danmarks Radio 1969)
The Lemon Song
Since I've Been Loving You
When the Levee Breaks
In My Time of Dying (I highly recommend Live 1975 Earls Court)
Boogie with Stu
Tea for One
Poor Tom
Thanks for this!
@@CoachCastTV A couple aren't actually electric (Boogie with Stu, Poor Tom), but still blues. Enjoy!
Time for you two to listen to Stevey Ray Vaughn ....Texas Flood live version
9 Below Zero, a UK blues band...album Live at the Marquee has fantastic r&b harp..
Cool...never heard of them, but Coach loves the blues.
Nice job guys. Great song. 🙂 We try to make things too difficult. Led Zeppelin can't be called one type of band. They weren't any 1 type of music. They had a strong blues influence. They played heavy rock. They played folk. They played what one might call heavyi metal.
They played one thing ALL the time..... great music. 🙂
They certainly are talented. We hope to do more of their songs soon.
@@CoachCastTV So many to choose from. Going to California. Ten years gone. Misty Mountain Hop. Heartbreaker/Living Loving Maid.
Hello! Try “What Is And What Should Never Be’
After the giant Mississippi flood in the 1920's, a lot of people migrated up to Chicago for work.
Stevie Ray Vaughn has some blues I promise Coach's Wife will love. Texas Flood live at the El Mocombo
Check his cover of Vodoo Chile also
Texas Flood is one Coach wants to do at some point. We actually listened to his version of Voodoo Child, but UA-cam blocked it and then the file was somehow corrupted and we could not post to Patreon. Mrs. Coach was complimentary of his talent, but did not care all that much for the song, unfortunately. Blues just doesn't resonate with her that much.
For more bluesy/southern rock check out Creedence Clear Water Revival (CCR)
Have these two never heard Twelve Bar Blues before? Of course the lyrics repeat. That's the classic lyric structure of Twelve Bar Blues. A-A-B.
Please, verify Since I've been loving you Live at MSG 1973. She will love.
Thank you for the suggestion.
There's a pretty decent harmonica song from Blackfoot called Train Train. But then that brings to mind Aerosmith's version of Train Kept a Rollin from Get your wings. No harmonica but it puts you in mind of it.
I'm familiar with the one from Aerosmith but not the other.
I believe it is an old blue's song from the 1920s
