TRUE, but, this was Jimmy's vision and practically the whole 1st album he had in his head ready to go... but as u said, the magic was in the BAND. PEACE.
LED ZEPPELIN IS TIMELESS, I BELIEVE ALL TRUE ROCKERS 30 AND OLDER PROBABLY KNOWS ALL THEIR SONGS WORD FOR WORD AND IS IN THE TOP 10 LIST . THAT'S IT. PEACE WILBURN, FAMILY HIPPIE JOE
I was a babe-in-the-woods as far as RnR was concerned when I entered college in September 1970. Fortunately, I lived in a scholarship house with 10 upper classmen, two years farther along in worldly knowledge. THEY WERE MY MUSIC MENTORS and I cannot thank them enough for ushering me into the realm of so many iconic bands. Anyway, I'm getting to the age (70 at this writing) when some of those lyrics are leaving my grey "filing cabinet." I've got to rely on UA-cam now for repeated playings of hits I can remember the titles of.
In 1977 I drove from Chicago to Los Angeles by myself with everything I owned, a cat and 3 Eight Track Tapes; Average White Band's Soul Searching, Pink Floyd's Animals and this Led Zeppelin's first album. Brings back great memories. Love that you listen to the songs all the way through - the way they were intended to be listened to!
You haven't done the live version of The Song Remains the Same from their 1973 MSG live album...also The Ocean from the same show! Greatest band ever! Fact!
Doing a great job! Led and Deep Purple were my two favorite groups growing up.. I'm 67 and between 1972 and 1975 I saw Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin twice. OMG you have no idea! Led played 3.25 hours the first time and 3 hours the second show. The second show was so loud all we heard was a buzz in our heads after the show LOLOL I saw Mach II and Mach III Deep Purple versions and both were explosive. Richie Blackmore IMO is the greatest guitar playing of that era and maybe off all time!! Their encore when I saw them in Pittsburgh in Aug 1972 was Child in Time. Unbelievable! Enjoy!
Chod.....I really wish you would look at a live video session of this song 1969 Dansmark radio. Young and still humble but brash. Good quality video. Don't have to react....do it for yourself. You'll appreciate seeing it I'm sure....
@@Scoobydcs Can't go wrong but respectfully disagree. I think the sound and video quality is better on Dansmark radio and they just released their first album and were relatively unknown. Royal Albert happened after their LP stormed to the top..... Plus the intimate setting on Dansmark is a rarity.
Right they took other songs and made them better and their own!!! You have so many more songs to listen to! If I was on a desert Island by myself and only had one band I could listen to it would be the mighty and great Led Zepplin!!!
The best material Zeppelin made was entirely their own and completely original. They covered blues songs well early on , but they also composed brilliant original music.
Me too. I pretty much rate them in the order they came out. The more studio overdubs and add-ons, the less I'm inclined to rate them as highly. On the first two albums, they were basically all in the room, at the same time, playing to each other. This is rock and roll to me. By the time we get to the multiple guitar symphonies and an over abundance of keyboards, I'm impressed, but tending to look the other way.
@@eviekelpie1 'No Quarter' live at MSG along with 'Since I've Been Loving You' from Led Zeppelin III, are my two favorites of theirs. I'm not too crazy about the 'No Quarter' from the studio. I think it grows up when the band is on stage, though.
Peter Tea : Sorry but LZ is not blues. Didn't care for their early albums. Grew up in Chicago area and I was fortunate that I got to see many of the blues legends perform...
@@cesarnarro6013 Of course they are. Their musicianship spans many genres. This song has components from Howlin Wolf and Albert King, both blues greats. I grew up in Chicago and still live here too. I’ve seen many blues greats too. Not sure what that has to do with this though. I guess you think it gives you cred. Lol. Ok.
@@PeterTea I didn't make the statement that seeing Blues artist gave me cred. At the time when Zep's first album album came out I personally wouldn't go see them if I wanted to hear some good blues. Yes they rocked out but I feel they got better in some of there later albums. Still say they were never a blues band
Chod, I knew you would love this one as soon as I saw you were reacting to it! You have an impressive start to your Led Zeppelin collection, but here are a few more excellent tracks for you to pursue! Ramble On, Good Times Bad Times, Going to California, Heartbreaker/Living Loving Maid, Hey Hey What Can I Do, Misty Mountain Hop, The Ocean, and of course the excellent Battle of Evermore! Keep on enjoying the journey and we will continue to enjoy watching you do so! This group is on the Mount Rushmore of rock bands, no doubt!
I might have mentioned to you before or someone else. Their secret was the combination of two seasoned pros Page and Jones, and two raw unbridled talents Bonham and Plant. Their leader Page was fearless and took chances with their direction. Oh, and don't hurt that each one was among the best at their discipline. Bonham was probably the best drummer ever.
The gods created this masterpiece of a band. Every musician is a GOAT. Collectively, epic band, timeless, intergenerational talent. They were destined to be together, thankfully.
After the Yardbirds, Jimmy Page (24) wanted to form a new group; it was 1968. He auditioned Robert Plant, (20) who knew John Bonham and brought them in. He knew JPJ from being a session musician. Keith Moon (of The Who) named the group by saying it would probably "go over like a lead balloon" and changed it to Led Zeppelin (left out the "a" in lead because he figured Americans couldn't pronounce it right, lol). So, that's the abridged version of how they got together.
LED is a conjugation of the verb TO LEAD. ie. "I led the dog down the mountain trail." ie. "I am led to believe that this tactic will not work." ie. "The people were led astray." All of what you say about Keith Moon's statement is true, but the guys used the homophone LEAD vs LED because of its difference in meaning. They didn't use it because they thought Americans wouldn't understand the spelling. The Zeppelin is being LED somewhere - Led Zeppelin.
@@TRUMP-2024-STF What Moon said was that the band would go down like a LEAD balloon. The use of LED is a homophone., or they would have used the name LEAD Zeppelin.
@@robrobert9541 They took out the a.. cause they thought Americans wouldn’t understand.. It’s not a zeppelin leading the way.. it’s a led ballon crashing. It’s a British idiom. Meaning failure. Not a sentence structure breakdown Like raining cats and dogs.
When Led Zeppelin got together they recorded their 1st album in just 30 hours! It has more hits on it than many major groups had in their career. Their name was inspired by a prediction of failure Keith Moon of The Who made saying “They would go down like a led balloon”
Like they've all said, from the first time they jammed, they new there was something special, a chemistry that comes along so one in a million. It doesn't always matter how talented the musicians are, cause everyone knows there are tons of uber talented people we never heard of. It's when a bunch of guys find each other by chance and create one monster and compliment each other without even trying. Something every musician dreams of finding. It's why I think Plant was right in not wanting to continue after Bonzo died. He didn't want some mortal version of Zep, he'd rather leave it at its highest expression. I'm glad he did that.
At the height of their fame they would play 3 hour live shows mate! Talk about getting more than your money's worth! I know Page, Plant, Bonham were heavily influenced by American Blues music imported from the USA. Post WWII - the 1950's there was some kind of cultural exchange with American music albums being sent to the UK. The bulk of it [from what I've read] were blues records. Many british teens ate that stuff up, and kids like Page was obsessed with it. By the time Led Zeppelin got together Page and Jones were well known studio session players, and Bonham was in a full-time band with Tim Rose [an American singer//songwriter in the UK] making decent money. No too sure about Plant but either way [good//bad] he was active. More to the story but you get the gist of it. I will say their first rehearsal together was pure magic! Jones said from the first note the room Exploded. Jones was like: "WHAT THE FAWK?!" The rest is Legend! Cheers!
Great reaction. The first time I saw them i wondered if RP would sound like he did on the albums .. and he did. Back in the day, they got so little coverage on tv or in the press they became mythical, like, were they for real?
I watch these videos on my phone when I need to kill a few minutes. This song really drove home how much I'm missing out on. I dont know why I don't use some headphones, at least for Led Zepoelin.
Last song on Zep 1--It came out the summer going into my senior year in HS-what a time to be alive-leaves you wanting more. And they gave us more that same year. Thanks for going back to my and your favorite---Oh Rosie, why did this have lines through it and now it doesn't?
Led Zeppelin has a live album taken from two nights of concerts at The Long Beach Auditorium titled “How The West Was Won” that I know you will LOVE‼️ I was there for one night👍🏼🙏🏻💛 ITS FANTASTIC ‼️
This song, as well as Led Zeppelin's first album, made me a star with my college friends at UCLA. I heard some of it on KMET, one of L.A.'s first underground FM stations, and drove all over LA looking for the album. I finally found it at Licorice Pizza in Long Beach. Called up some friends, found a safe place, smoked a little herb, and listened over and over late into the night until our ears were ringing. At that time, there was no band putting out anything even close to what Page, Plant, Jones, and Bonham were doing.
bout time u heard this classic THANK YOU for doing studio first that means u get the authentic same thing we all heard back then which has not grown old ! ill never forget getting this album this was the closing song best debut album ever
speaking of heartbreak, I don't think you've done "Heartbreaker / Living Loving Maid" yet. though technically two songs they go together like peas and carrots. The entire first album (which this song is on ) was entirely put together in 36 hours without any kind of recording contract or even the name Led Zeppelin. simply amazing!
While I haven’t listened to this song in a number of years, I still know every word and musical nuance. Thank you fir the reminder to pull this off the shelf.
There is no doubt that the fireworks up front were what grabbed the attention, an Apollo with the mane of a lion and a voice stolen from the gods themselves, a guitarist,songwriter, producer, innovator and waif like, dragon suited wizard who conducted the proceedings with the bombast of Wagner and the subtlety of a minstrel. No doubt about it. But what made them different from pretty much every group before or since? The groove! JPJ could play anything you put in front of him and he could groove as well as any bass guitarist going. And behind the drums sat a man with a foot like a castanet and a swing in his playing like the greatest of the jazz drummers. And his sound was, as the band later said...the hammer of the gods. The whole band swung like no one before and no one since. Their treasures are waiting for you find. Enjoy.
Chod, I got into Zep late in '82 aged 20 when my first husband introduced them to me when we met. I binged in Zep the entire weekend. I think my jaw didn't stop dropping 🤣. No other group has topped them since that day 39 years ago!
This is a great one for Bonham samples. It's unpredictable, and different, and he remembered every song how he played it. That alone sounds crazy, but it's sort of like perfection...
@@kurtsaxton823 Both were definitely game changers but Hendrix was the catalyst for what came out the next 3 years.. Put on yer headphones and listen to Third Stone From The Sun and Are You Experienced … then move over to his 2nd record, Axis Bold As Love.. both done in 1967…
You meant to say The most amazing debut records ever recorded... you cant top the best Led Zep ... everyone else comes second best ... How many more times do you need to hear that !
Jimmy Page thinks it was luck that they were all so talented and all had similar ideas and chemistry with each other. This will probably never happen again.
Ok some suggestions; *Over the hills and far away *Nobody's fault but mine *Bring it on home *Communication Breakdown *Boogie with Stu *Candy Store Rock
The heartbreak you speak of must have happened to Howlin' Wolf (Chester Burnett), who wrote this song and also 'Killin' Floor (The Lemon Song.) No shade to Zeppelin, who as you said, took these songs and put them into overdrive, but facts is facts. That said I believe personally that Led Zeppelin is one of the four "Mount Rushmore" groups of rock and roll along with The Beatles, The Stones, and The Who. There are a great many other greats, but you can probably trace the influence upon most rock groups who came after to those four entities. The Beatles influenced everybody. The Stones played it simple, hard-edged, and made things accessible to even neophyte players. The Who and Zeppelin (also a guy named Jimi Hendrix) made ear-splitting, bombastic music popular, and songwriters like John Lennon, Pete Townshend, and the guy who most influenced Pete, Ray Davies, of The Kinks, brought thought-provoking lyrics into the world of wop bop a loo wop a lop bam boom...
Tangerine, in the evening, or thank you are 3 ledzeppelin songs. Also try the rolling stones till the next time we say goodbye, the official video version
it's really hard to dislike this version of Led Zeppelin (not that the "later" albums/shows weren't great, they were!!) - BUT, listening to a tune like HMMT is a revelation - there was NOTHING like it before...or since, AND, those early LIVE versions like RAH are simply one of a kind AMAZING. Peace.
I remember, at 15, sitting on the floor, cross legged and all around a record player in the middle of my circle of friends. My “girlfriend” had just bought Led Zeppelin I. I remember peeling the cellophane off of it, dropping the needle on it for the first time, and............well, the world was never really the same for me. As they say, dinner with your parents was somehow different from that point on.
Hi Chod, thank you for all the LZ reactions.♥️ Here are a couple more: Houses of the Holy from Physical Graffiti LP and Dancing Days from Houses of the Holy LP. Thanks. Janet from Louisiana ☮🖤🤘
You are 100% correct, absolutely the best band of all time! I fell down the rabbit hole at 14 in the mid 70s. James Patrick Page, Robert Anthony Plant, John Henry Bonham and John Paul Jones are awesome musicians individually, but together Hot Damn!!
there is a couple great books out there and interviews. If you are obsessed, as I am, you will get info on how their magic came together. Their manager was awesome by always letting the band do their music their way and he dealt with the rest and fought for them against the music label and the media.
OK NOW it's time for Nobody's Fault But Mine-Led Zeppelin ✌
Yes!
💯 yes!!!
Oh Jimmy!
Yes yes and yes. Nobody’s fault is a no nonsense kick ass rock n roll 🎧 song
This group is Page's baby but without the other 3 there is no Led Zep all four together is magic.
TRUE, but, this was Jimmy's vision and practically the whole 1st album he had in his head ready to go... but as u said, the magic was in the BAND.
PEACE.
I had to give this a thumbs up before I listened. I've heard it a thousand times and it never gets old 👍
Me too LOL
Me too! 🥰
I knew a "Sandy Miller" many moons ago....how funny.
@@mikeloomis687 I know a Windy Miller from Camderwick Green LOL
How many more times will you listen to it?

All 4 members were great. It is amazing that they met at the same time .... right time right place! Zep was meant to be
You pegged it dude...that’s why I’ve been listening to them for 50 yrs...never heard any better..
Excellent! The shuffle beat Bonham plays to guide the "steal away" passage back towards the main riff is simply awesome.
There's a fantastic live version of this from royal Albert Hall. It's a 20 minute jam session!!
Jimmy gets the cello bow out for this track too
From their debut album! IMHO the best debut album OAT!
Whenever I catch a mouse in the garage, I run around the house singing this song--They Call Me the Hunter, that's my name
That's hilarious.

Think about it. This was 1969. There was nothing like this before or since. Plant & Bonzo were in a band together b4 Zep. The Band Of Joy.
Love your zeppelin reactions I just can't get enough.
The GREATEST OF ALL TIME, no doubt!!!🎶🎶🎤🎧💜 Look up their beginning...very interesting guys!!😊
They’re just untouchable
You haven't done the live version of The Song Remains the Same from their 1973 MSG live album...also The Ocean from the same show! Greatest band ever! Fact!
The Rover - Zeppelin.
Such a great bad ass rock song + solo.
Unbelievable to think it was a throwaway tune from their LZ 3 recordings put onto PG to make it a double album.

Jimmy Page thinks it was luck that they were all so talented and all had similar ideas and chemistry with each other. This will probably never happen again.
Ok some suggestions;
*Over the hills and far away
*Nobody's fault but mine
*Bring it on home
*Communication Breakdown
*Boogie with Stu
*Candy Store Rock
How can you leave off Goodtimes badtimes ? Bonzo's kills it with the rolling bass drum.
When the levee breaks
The heartbreak you speak of must have happened to Howlin' Wolf (Chester Burnett), who wrote this song and also 'Killin' Floor (The Lemon Song.) No shade to Zeppelin, who as you said, took these songs and put them into overdrive, but facts is facts. That said I believe personally that Led Zeppelin is one of the four "Mount Rushmore" groups of rock and roll along with The Beatles, The Stones, and The Who. There are a great many other greats, but you can probably trace the influence upon most rock groups who came after to those four entities. The Beatles influenced everybody. The Stones played it simple, hard-edged, and made things accessible to even neophyte players. The Who and Zeppelin (also a guy named Jimi Hendrix) made ear-splitting, bombastic music popular, and songwriters like John Lennon, Pete Townshend, and the guy who most influenced Pete, Ray Davies, of The Kinks, brought thought-provoking lyrics into the world of wop bop a loo wop a lop bam boom...
I wish he would react to the rolling stones till the next time we say goodbye, the official video version
Well said! Cant forget those people also! Well-written btw^^
@@zzyy666 Thank you. Spoken from the heart and head.
😎 Ahhhh...Nice to hear some Zeppelin again ! Jeff Beck tomorrow ? 🤩
Tangerine, in the evening, or thank you are 3 ledzeppelin songs. Also try the rolling stones till the next time we say goodbye, the official video version
Good picks mate. Pal of mine named his daughter Tangerine.
Stretchgilbert mentioned Zeppelin tune nobody’s fault but mine, That a Great Next Zeppelin choice ! 👍
Not bad for a debut album, eh?
Zep rules. Blues meets Prog Rock meets Punk meets Folk meets India meets Elvis.
it's really hard to dislike this version of Led Zeppelin (not that the "later" albums/shows weren't great, they were!!) - BUT, listening to a tune like HMMT is a revelation - there was NOTHING like it before...or since, AND, those early LIVE versions like RAH are simply one of a kind AMAZING.
Peace.
I remember, at 15, sitting on the floor, cross legged and all around a record player in the middle of my circle of friends. My “girlfriend” had just bought Led Zeppelin I. I remember peeling the cellophane off of it, dropping the needle on it for the first time, and............well, the world was never really the same for me. As they say, dinner with your parents was somehow different from that point on.
You didn't say it......the best one is the next one ...sooooo....."What is and what should never be".... is the best one!!
Hi Chod, thank you for all the LZ reactions.♥️ Here are a couple more: Houses of the Holy from Physical Graffiti LP and Dancing Days from Houses of the Holy LP. Thanks. Janet from Louisiana ☮🖤🤘
One of the few other songs that Jimmy uses the bow on.
“I Can’t Quit You Babe”
The Rover, another epic song from the Boys !!
Chod, you just served us all sum serious Chicken Noodle Soup for our Souls! Thank You, I need sum Led Zep to wash away the blues for a bit.
That Groove that Bonham lays down his incredible
2 high caliber club circuit musicians lead by 2 other high caliber studio session aces...thats how it happened baby!! " no LZ song is just ok! " LOL
This song gives me chills up my spine every single time.
You are 100% correct, absolutely the best band of all time! I fell down the rabbit hole at 14 in the mid 70s. James Patrick Page, Robert Anthony Plant, John Henry Bonham and John Paul Jones are awesome musicians individually, but together Hot Damn!!
Check out "I'm Gonna Crawl" by Led Zeppelin
Yes is a really great band. So many from that era. Only Zep takes to through the stargate and back.
You need to react to in the light by Zeppelin
there is a couple great books out there and interviews. If you are obsessed, as I am, you will get info on how their magic came together. Their manager was awesome by always letting the band do their music their way and he dealt with the rest and fought for them against the music label and the media.
Plant is honest...the most powerful emotion we hear.
Page played his ass off on this track.
by my point of view one of the best Zeppelin song,welldone bruh!
Led Zeppelin is blues on steroids Robert Plant is the quintessential rock singer.
