I've been listening to "Physical Graffiti" since 1975 and it forever remains my favorite Led Zeppelin album....and I'm a HARDCORE LedHead. Hearing the change-overs of the LP sides is INGRAINED in me. I'm also of the opinion that "Custard Pie" and "Sick Again" are THE GREATEST album opener and closer EVER......and I will go to my grave with that opinion. 🤩
Nearly half a century since it's release.....I'm an old man now.......Where does the time go?!?
It's great hearing stories from fans of the Mighty Led Zeppelin. I think if everybody listened to Zeppelin their would be no wars, just brothers having a good time!
I am 28 and have been a Zeppelin fan since I was a kid, but a true LedHead for about 5 years. Physical Graffiti is also my favourite Zeppelin album, truly timeless music that will still be listen to for many generations to come.
Sick Again is a underrated monster of a song !!! great closer I agree !!
@zeppearl Led Zeppelin songs are like beautiful ripe apples. No matter which one you pick, they are all delicious!
Custard Pie and Sick Again are great openers/closers, but Black Dog/Levee are better!
I had the privilege of seeing Led Zeppelin in May of 1973 (Memorial Colosseum, Tuscaloosa, AL). I’ve seen many concerts in my life, including a second Zeppelin show in 1977. The 1973 Zeppelin concert was the best.
The peak, Scott, the peak. No doubt. They played their asses off at times later, but I think they are were firing well in 1973. Good for you, man. 👍
@@joelhague5515 Thank you! That 1973 concert was a transcendent experience. I left thinking “I didn’t know musicians could do that.”
Wow Scott, let me salute you. You witnessed the pinnacle of Led Zeppelin's live years. 1973 is THE BEST! Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
So glad you’re still going with these. Some of the most valuable Led Zeppelin content on UA-cam.
I am still yes! haha! Can't stop now! Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
It really is.
'10 Years Gone ' is my all time favorite guitar solo.Was stoked when Jimmy did it with the Black Crowes.
Did he use a Tele on “10 years” when with the Crowes ??
I guess I could try to find it.
@@ezsmith3765 Looks like same '59 Les Paul he used in 'Song Remains The Same' Video is on yt
Page and Plant played TYG several times in 96.
@@adamwatson6916 Thanks.Will definitely check that out
That guitar solo is simple yet HARD to play!
One of the best reasons (I feel) of all of the crystal clear, perfectly balanced stereo soundboard tapes from 1975 is that: we all get a front row seat to hear John Paul’s work. In fact one of the main reasons I’ve loved Zeppelin all these years for is because we get to live vicariously through the insight of John’s (and the others of course) thought processes. Kashmir live from the US ‘75 tour is something that Jones could handle. Between the Hohner keyboard atop the Mellotron and bass pedals, he had it all covered. When the songs drawn-out ending begins when entering the key of G is where we get to hear the goods. It’s like having a full orchestra in one man. We’re all forever indebted to Mr. Jones. I recommend to all here to go back to the Dallas tapes, St. Louis, Nassau, N.Y., Baton Rouge, Vancouver and Seattle board tapes and check out Kashmir once again…to hear the master at work on top of Bonham’s HUGE bass drum trudge.
Yes.
Dude; are you f'n kidding me?! I have been watching many of your other impressive videos-but I was absolutely captivated by your "St. Mark's Groove". If this is something you created with some foundational elements of Kashmir-it contains some epic, Rock God's of the 70's chords that I would listen to then-or now. Major props for your comprehensive work on these videos and your talents as a musician yourself 🌟
Thank you Mike! St. Mark's Groove i spent many days creating, trying to feel the right vibrations that translated Graffiti's moments into a single theme song. Stay tuned for Episode 2! There's a LOT of stuff coming up!
I have a tie-dye of LED Zeppelin with Icaraus with his wings and Tour 1975 on the bottom. My uncle bought it for me at the Long Beach California concert! He said it was one of their best shows! He also bought a shirt for himself and my aunt plus the tour book. I used to look at it for hours!
wow what an awesome memory! that shirt is worth a lot of money. I paid 100 dollars for a “reprint” from 1976. assuming yours is screen printed and not an iron on graphic, those original 1975 tour shirts were printed by winterland productions. they licensed some of their tour prints from this 73-76 era and reprinted them in the following years. an original is worth 300 dollars easily.
I have Icarus tattoo on my right calf. My brother did it for me.
You can get a bright colored tie dye reprint of that shirt for $35 and save your valuable OG.
Phys Graf's my favorite album lately, but I only listen to 1 side at a time. It has aged like a fine wine.
Sick Again is a masterpiece. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Less ....is more. I listen to one side at a time myself......mainly because I LOVE it so much...
Ten Years Gone is one of Zep's very best songs... sometimes the best
I concur!
Best double LP of all time.
Not sure if it's the best but PG is certainly in the Top 10 and maybe Top 3. Monumental album..
@@robertwheatley2471 I’m sure for you. It is.
Holy crap!!! Your intro track is sooooooo good!!! Only a musician who really understands Zeppelin can pull something like that off!!! Brilliant!!
Hey Kev!!! Thank YOU very much for watching. I wrote 2 versions of the theme song, then realized i liked them both so i joined them together. The Kashmir influence had to be there, what else defines Graffiti ? hehe. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
@@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories, did you put out that song somewhere,id love to get that on cd,,, Amazing!!!.... sounds like Jeff Beck on lead's
i have learned more about Led Zeppelin in this one video, than a lifetime of listening to and playing their music. I believe you to be the utmost authority on Led Zeppelin history PERIOD!!! Much love from Massachusetts my friend ❤️🇺🇸
JCM is the real deal.One of the few I donate to.He puts in a lot of time and effort to do docs this good.
Thank you so very much. Honored! You should have seen me in high school drawing Zeppelin symbols on desks and such, my teachers were worried, now i found the right medium to channel this fandom we ALL Zepp Heads enjoy!
Fortunate to be a participant in this"landmark"Documentary of Zepp's pinnacle period.Great work.
You are a part of JCM STUDIOS! Thank you very much. The research process for this one has been TOUGH to say the least!
@@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories Solute,seems very well Worth It.
@@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories 35:15 I always thought that Jonesy played the orchestral part on the Mellotron.
Song remains the same was on houses of the holy not physical graffiti also no quarter
@@tieukhavu8832Jonesy the most disrespected, underpaid and criminally abused member of Led Zeppelin.
Why?
Because he was a teacher, a studio musician and classically trained.
See the hypocrisy?
He's just so straight man
Yawn
An album truly belonging in the Pantheon of all music, for the ages. Tchaikovsky, Bach, Handel, Beethoven, Led Zeppelin. 10 years G, In the Light , Kashmir, In my Time.. great documentary, narrative.. congratulations Jose.
In The Light is truly a strange piece of music that still puzzles musicians all over the world. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories Curious as to reasons for descriptions, 'strange' & ' puzzling'. Ethereal opening (a nod to English church organ & Elgar, with echo & delay ?), atmospherics & unbeatable dynamics throughout.
Well said
Before even watch statement: Your docummentarys about Zeppelin are THE BEST, by far, of all I've ever seen on the matter. Meticulous, brilliant work. Greetings from Spain.
Wow, thank you! Thank you Valentina!
Definitely one of my favorite albums. But of course I love the whole Zeppelin catalog so. Another great episode.
How can one not love the whole catalog right? Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Sick again might be my favorite guitar solo page ever recorded
The more you hear it, yes, it's SO GOOD. The backing for that...that rhythm work, incredible. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
@@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories that intro lick just kills me. So much feel in that solo
UNBELIEVABLE INTRO MUSIC AND VISUALS!!!! BEST YOUVE DONE YET MY MAN!! OUTSTANDING EPISODE!! BEEN WAITING FOR THIS A LONG TIME!!!! THANK YOU!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
MATT! Hey man, so glad you enjoyed it. The theme song was tough to come up with haha, i was battling with two musical roads, decided to join them and here you have it! Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
No 'Ten Years Gone' as one of your favorites? As a guitar player, I hear that song as a sort of symphony for guitar.
The outro with all the layered guitar parts is magnificent
I love the track except the ending. I like the layers in the outro yes, but even Jones would alter the bass line live, meaning he played a F and G chord from time to time. I just feel it goes on forever and trust me, that song has been in my life many times. The intro is PERFECT, and the SOLO....get out! But yeah, i wanted to share my honest opinions, it's healing to take things off your chest.
Yes, I just saw ‘Get The Led Out’ perform this song to perfection. Three guitars and maybe a roadie helping out off stage ?
This to me is their greatest collection of songs from a single series of sessions, Headley Grange from Jan to Feb 1974. Take out all of the older tracks and it's an instant classic that rivals the greatest albums of all time.
Yes Rick, take out all the rest...and that is ONE mean RECORD. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
How does this not have a million views? Great job on a rock and roll budget.
One view at a time, enjoying every minute of building this channel with one of the best communities out there: TRUE ROCK AND ROLLERS! Thank you very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 3!
Got this album Christmas 1975 , saw Zeppelin in 77🎉
Best Christmas Gift ever right? Hope you enjoy Episodes 2, 3 & 4 from the series. Thank you very much for watching!
Nassau Coliseum February 13th. 3 1/2 hours of pure hard rock. Hearing songs from Graffiti before it was released. Imagine...
Nassau should be released professionaly you think' Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories yes it should be released professionally, feb 14th too. The bootlegs on YT sound pretty good, especially the feb 14th show.
Awesome!!..My favorite album of Alltime, Love sick again, one of my favs, such an underrated track, nice to hear you explain it, it's the lesser known ones that need the attention, zep was about there whole body of work, not just 3 or 4 songs, really what all bands should be about, Nice work.
Sick Again is a killer track, i agree the lesser known tracks are what makes it all worth. Their body of work is absolutely INSANE...to achieve that level of arrangement wisdom. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
@@JCM-LedZeppelin-Storieslooking forward
Zeppelin's masterpiece
Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
I am excited to watch this tonight. One of my favorite albums of all time.
Really cool how Jimmy pieced together those various theatrical/cinematic bits into Kashmir.
I’ve missed your doc series! Looks like I have some catching up to do. That intro music you did that sounded like Jeff Beck transitioning to that revamped Kashmir figure… BRILLIANT!! I’ve never heard anyone capture the essence of Jeff Beck’s style so completely… and then turn it into something Page/Zeppish! Also love your musical breakdowns on the Zep tunes. Your a real student of the craft and is fellow musicians/guitarists appreciate it!
Brilliant video as usual, thanks! This + LZ3 r my 2 fave Zeppelin albums so I been waiting for u to do this one! Really interesting. Completely agree with u about JPJ. Is funny cos I always thought Jimmy is like a bass player so tight with those drums on graffiti … now I no why!! Anyway, many thanks JCM
Hehe yeah, Jimmy was extra tight with the drums cause they had to make up for the Unjonessed months. Diving deep to make these scripts has been an eye opener, PG won't be my favorite but....trust me, it has changed certain perspectives. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
TEN YEARS GONE is not only my favorite Zeppelin song, it's my all-time favorite song ever. I bought PHYSICAL GRAFFITI on vinyl when I was in my teens, and living with my parents at the time, I had to listen to it using headphones at night if I wanted it loud...I highly recommend listening to this song with headphones to hear every bit of Page's amazing guitar work and overlays.
I relate to what you say, 100%. I like the opening very much, it describes so many moments in life. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Jeezus, this video is amazing. What an obvious labor of love. We all had similar experiences first listening to this record which became the soundtrack of our youth. Thank you so much brother! Major kudos.
A labor of love and COFFEE let me tell you hehe. The soundtrack of our lives indeed. Glad to be talking to a MUSIC FAN like you. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
@@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories Glad it’s only coffee, the intoxicants were a bit stronger back then too but we all survived. We play Ten Years Gone and occasionally a partial version of The Rover while touring the past couple years. I love the depth you get into about the music and am amazed how you deduce influences and precursors to some of the songs. You think like a guitar player! And one who is probably right on! The deep dive shows you as a deep and insightful listener. 👍
Every member of the band was irreplaceable
Good morning to you JC😁 I'm quite excited to watch the first episode of an album I remember studying as well as hearing. You are so good introducing and telling the story with facts not fiction. You have also added on bands that had an influence on you too. ❤️
Annette i love digging deep into the context side of things. So much stuff happening in the music scene...incredible.
The very beginning- that guitar intro of yours- was very very much in the style of Jeff Beck (the In the Light-esque part.) Masterful playing my friend!!🎸🎸🎸🎸
Wow thanks Teresa! Much appreciated it. I miss Jeff Beck every day!
I love this channel man! Thank you
My pleasure! Thank you very much for watching! Episode 2 is out now. Stay tuned por Episode 3!

Thanks again man ! yraG :) @@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories
Excellent work again! Thanks for the detail on what JPJ was up too after the '73 tour, fascinating!!
Jones certainly enjoyed his time off. I've seen this said to happen in 1974 and that couldn't be more wrong. I dug deep and checked many sources as well as other artists agenda's to make sure. :) Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
That was fantastic, thank you! 🎸😊
Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Thank you,Jose. Another great episode. Looking forward to episode 2. Cheers ✌️
Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2 and the year 1974 in full!
Thanks so Much JCM, for telling the Story of the Making of my Favorite Led Zeppelin Album! I was Fortunate enough to see them Perform some of the Stand Out Tracks Live at the Montreal Forum on Thursday Night, 06 Feb 1975!! 2 Weeks later, the Album was Released & Listening to It brought the Memories of that Fantastic Live Show all Back to Me! My immediate thought was: "Holy Fuck, They Really Were That GOOD!!"
You saw them at Montreal, that's incredible. Can't imagine the feeling.....the mighty Zepp! Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
JCM, this was a fantastic episode... Really enjoyed it! Looking forward to the next... Thank you again!
Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Amazing theme tune you've got there.
Glad you enjoyed the theme song!! Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Fantastic! Great details! I listened to the album on vinyl this morning, and I’ll listen to it again on my iPod in my Jeep. To me the album is very visual! Lots of images fly through my mind with each track, and the music is so powerful! Can’t wait for episode 2!
Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
MY FAVORITE LED ZEPPELIN ALBUM LETS GO!!
Mine too. By a nose. I was waiting for this! 👍
Another great job as always JCM - thank you. Funny story on the 1973 robbery at the Drake: was watching the movie on VHS at friend's home around 1982 - my friend's dad was retired NY police officer....walks in and instantly states: "oh - led zeppelin - I am coming up in the next scene" - friend and I like at each other like what? My friend never knew it, but his dad is the officer driving the patrol car that takes Grant in for questioning - said he met the members and they were all gentlemen - he did say they looked a little worse for wear (party the night before???) and that Jimmy was asking Grant for cash so he could go buy records! He also stated the police thought the money was stolen by a member of the hotel management staff. One of the books I read mentioned someone they thought stole the money who worked at the hotel who suddenly retired and moved to the carribbean!
Excellent as usual. I always look forward to seeing your latest video!
Thank you very much Matt! I will let you know on the package btw, i believe my friend has it already!
Love this channel ❤
Thank you!!! Episode 2 premieres tomorrow March 16th, lots of information coming up!
dude this intro is amazing!!! The St Marks Groove!!
Glad you like it! Worked my way through that one first before even editing any episode stuff. Wanted to capture the textures and stuff. All a labor of admiration for Led Zeppelin!
Nice one Jose sick again is one of my favourite songs to play on guitar. My drummer friend can play like Bonham and has the Bonham green sparkle kit released around 2007. A beautiful kit and I thought Kashmir was all mellotron. Didn’t know it has a real orchestra
Kashmir is a fascinating mix. How they managed to make all the layers work like that, Page is really a genius producer, can't state that enough. Your friend has a green sparkle kit? That's so cool! Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
I remember the album release preview on WNEW fm. Scott Muni's afternoon show, he would play a song or two from the then unreleased album. I would rush home from school to not miss it. 49 years later, when I play the album, it's as fresh and wonderful as the first time.
Which song did he play? That's awesome. Was it The Wanton Song? Thank you very much for watching! Episode 2 is out now. Stay tuned por Episode 3!
@@JCM-LedZeppelin-StoriesPretty sure he played every song, it took a while as I recall. The album was not available in stores yet. Other stations in the area did not have it either. The release was a fanfare back then!
Brilliant work as always :]
Thanks for this awesome deep dive. I learn something interesting everytime. 👍🙌❤
Another superb episode with plenty of surprises and interesting Zep history tidbits. Enjoy your research of the time period and how all of this weaves back and forth from dates of recording to current day. Thanks JCM!
Context is something which i'm passionate of, looking at the circumstances explains why the song's happened this way. I find the music business back then fascinating really, so many GREAT releases! Thank you very much for watching! Stay tuned por Episode 3!
Fantastic work JCM! Yes JPJ was so vital to the Zeppelin camp. I could never imagine the band without him. PG is Zeppelin at its peak. Excited for the next episode. Cheers!
Excellent work as usual Jose!
I appreciate that! Man...working these scripts has been demanding, i didn't know what i was getting into hahaha. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Alright J. This was the first thing I saw online when I woke up. Nice ☺️❤
John Paul Jones was irreplaceable - damn straight.❤
I won't get tired of repeating this, JONES deserves all the praise he can get! Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
All your work is super professional and the intro is amazing.
Thank you so much! The St Mark's Groove theme was fun to record for sure.
You seriously deserve more subs and accolades, I watch ALL the music channels and you are by far one the best.. keep it up even if you don't get the credit and money, you get the experience and share it with us
Thanks Corey, i appreciate it. Working one video at a time, one Patreon member at a time, one Subscriber, its all down to being patient and keeping the love for music intact. I appreciate your kind words. Sky is the limit! If you want to recommend my channel via social media, please do so, it helps me a lot! Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Jose! Great job on the trailer using the whammy (for lack of a B-Bender) and digging up some Beck-ish There And Back sounds on this episode/series' trailer. This intro jam rocks hard too! Truly enjoy your hard work on these media 'archaeological digs'. I have to think the band and their brood enjoy your stories and thoughtful reconstructions of what was going on in-and-around the Greatest Rock Band of the 70s! Thank you again for your "superhuman efforts"! 😎
I like the concept of reconstructions you mention. The more i dive into dates, events and context i realize that i am trying to build the biggest rock library on UA-cam..one video at a time. Thank you for your kind words, they mean a lot! Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!

Thank you JCM for another brilliantly done deep dive into LED Zeppelin territory! It continues to amaze me on your level of research. I always learn something I didn’t know before! Can’t wait for the next one my friend!
Hey Gary, Thanks so much man. The research for Graffiti has opened so many doors of historic connections and paths...i'm learning a lot as i go. These scripts have been demanding, i won't lie, but so rewarding always to watch the final product and how we ALL enjoy them! Stay tuned for Episode 2!
So impressed by this. Very well done.
Thanks for watching man, this one has been quite HARD to do, but i am happy to embark on such journey!
Very interesting stuff I never knew.

Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Physical Graffiti their absolute finest I saw w Zeppelin 2.14.75 in concert!!!!
Wow! Excellent research Jose. You really nailed this one. I learned so much about Jonesy's 1973 hiatus. In the end it worked, he came back and never left again until the end of the band.
The man himself! I finally managed to do this hehe. Jonesy's hiatus is fascinating, the more i dug deep into it, i was amazed. He remained an artist at heart. Glad Peter Grant convinced him right? I don't see Plant having THAT conversation even if he knew he NEEDED Jones. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!

Crazy amount of detail Jose. Nice!
Thanks Scott! These scripts have made me stay up all night working hehe! Stay tuned for Episode 2!
Hey JCM, great to see you do this epic album... my absolute favourite from the Led Zep catalogue. I have 2 copies of the original vinyl pressings. As always, your work is fantastic! Cheers bro!
Original pressings, NICE stuff, i bet they sound killer. My favorite CD version is the Diament 80s, for some reason it has the correct punch to it. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
What an Amazing album,this has always been my favorite album in their catalogue,I absolutely love it,thank you for making this..🙌✨👽🫶🏼
Hi J this is one of your best videos, great production etc. i bought it when it came out and still have it with the window hype sticker. I heard they didn’t put the trac Ho-t-Holy on HOTH is because Jimmy thought it sounded too much like Dancin’Days.
Interesting Jimmy thought it sounded like Dancing Days, i can see why...but had they put Houses in there...what a great addition. Thank YOU very much for watching and your kind words!!!. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
JCM, as you work towards the next episode, a great resource is rocks back pages, FWIW. Looking forward to Saturday's show! 😎
Thanks for the heads up, i will check that site, never heard of it :)
@@JCM-LedZeppelin-StoriesIt's all old rock journalism. Really great stuff. 😎
PG is (my opinion) a reflection of Zep at at the height of their power. 11 minutes of In My Time of Dying proves that; no overdubs on a largely improvised track, with the boys giving their best performances. AND I learned to play slide from it. 49 years on and it still leaves me breathless.
The balance of the album could be released today and still be vital and fresh
Nice work man.
Funny, I know the drummer mentioned in the #2 review of the "John Paul Jones" CD. Haven't seen him in ages though. Hopefully will remember to ask about that if i see him again.
You know him? Oh man that's quite a coincidence haha. I wanna hear that album by the way, need to get a copy...Thank YOU very much for watching Dave. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
@@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories not well, but the band mentioned in the review, Robin Lane and the Chartbusters, recorded at one of the studios I work at, so would often see them and chit chat with them. Tim was a friendly dude....in fact, most of them were, and they were very funny. That was 20 years ago though. I know I've seen the drummer from afar recently, but haven't had a chance to chat. But this gives me reason to do so next time I see him.
Anyway, yeah, I'd like to hear that record too. If I find anything out, will let you know.
I'm sorry I just got through the first two minutes and had to hit pause to comment that your design on the intro with the building and they're in the windows jamming that is f****** genius dude
Thank you Todd, i appreciate it! Lot of work went into coming up with the theme and all, lots of coffee to get there. :)
Checked out Madeline Bell last nite.
Outta sight.
The arrangements are clever & creative.
Like Cerebral Motowns charming crazy cousin with straight A's in school.
Highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The drummer, her soft - power vocals ,harps, horns
You mean her 1973 album? YES. A magnificent record. I need to get it on Vinyl! Glad you dug deep into her music!
Thanks!
Thanks so much WSS, you rock man! Episode 2 is comign with A LOT OF stuff!
Fantastic as usual, I love the opening music, a bit of alternative LedZep with Jeff Beck inspired guitar! Can't wait for ep2!
Led Beck-lin' ? Hehe, i like that concept, maybe i will explore it more. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
The Mighty Led Zeppelin is the only band i do not mind dropping a few sheckles to support Jimmy's lifestyle!
Very good way to put it, this is why i have never Purchased a Bootleg but all the ORIGINALS many times. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!

Saturday :)
I’m salivating over this, can’t wait!
Hahaha hpoe you enjoy my take on it. What an ambitious project this has been!
Your intro song is great, man. 🤌🏽
Thanks so much Sam! All a labor of admiration for Zepp!
Nice work!
Thank you! Cheers!
One of my all time favorite guitar solos is in Down By The Seaside. Shame that it's buried so deep in the mix.
Love those personal anecdotes at the beginning. I've broken so many two-cd jewel cases because the damn things never opened right. In lieu of buying CDs I always bought two cassettes instead because I got more music for the price, and I picked up PG and Presence.
Glad you dig my personal experiences with these works! I battled my way through that jewel case and guess what, it's broken now, i think that happened some 10 years ago. Cassettes were always a great deal indeed!
This video was worth watching just to hear you kick some of those P Diddy riffs. Uh-huh, yeah. You pretty much nailed it right there, buddy. Impressive chops 👍
Hahahha you spotted the Godzilla soundtrack fandom there. I had to...just had to! Thank you!
Glad to see that you are going to include some of the cuts from one of the best bootleg's that I have ever heard, the name I know it by is Physically Present but it probably has a dozen others. I saw it in a record store (remember those?) and it was behind the counter in a glass top case and I asked about it. The guy said he didn't know much about it so I asked if I could listen to it, he said sure. It starts off with the run through of Custard Pie, and immediately I said SOLD! It was far and away the most I had ever paid for a bootleg CD! Bootlegs are traditionally expensive, but this was like $80 that was a shit TON of money for a bootleg CD! I took it home and listened to it, and then listened to it about twenty times in a row! I brought it over to my friends house and told him, you HAVE to hear this! My buddy was the ULTIMATE LZ fanatic! He & I loved everything Zeppelin! He had a look on his face when the version of In The Light started that was like looking at the face of someone watching their child being born! We listened to that entire thing 10 times! We got hammered and just enjoyed hearing the different ways they were putting all these songs together, it was great! My buddy passed away suddenly from a heart attack a number of years ago, it devastated me. I never got to say goodbye, and we really loved each other. I miss him a lot! That bootleg makes me think about him, and it makes me feel good that we shared that together. There are people that try to convince you that it is fake! It's a tribute band doing an impression of Zeppelin. If you are a true student of Zeppelin, you know it's them. I know those tapes were stolen from Page a number of years ago. So yes, it's Zeppelin! Raw and real! Hope you will play the version of In The Light with the different lyrics and the harpsichord intro. Looking forward to the next video!
Sorry about your friend :( He sounds like a TRUE fan indeed. 80 dollars for a bootleg, oh yes, i saw those prices i remember, i refused to pay them haha. Thank YOU very much for watching. Stay tuned for Episode 2!
I LOVE that intro music you did. Wish I had a guitar player like you 20 years ago. Damn. 🤙
Thanks Chad!
Love your opening theme! Badasss!
🔥🤘🎸
Thanks so much Steve, lots of time went into thinking that theme out. Looking for the motifs and layers :)
it's my favorite Zep album but it just makes me to sad to think about the way Page Plant and Jones avoid each other now. But Jones did an AMAZING job doing "Levee" with the "Playing For Change" virtual musicians.
Great jam JCM
