      Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song (Live 1972) (Official Video)
      ua-cam.com/video/RlNhD0oS5pk/v-deo.html
      (the immigrants in the song are Vikings, so it`s not like a modern day type of immigrant song) Think this was the main theme song in Marvels Thor movie, or Ironman, may be both.

    How many hits did they have? I'd say that - honestly - it's hard to find a song in their catalog that wasn't "a hit". Sadly, they just weren't together for long when Bonzo died, and they broke up, but during that time, they were quite prolific. It's insane how hard it is to go wrong when listening to anything by Zeppelin. Honestly, 80%+ are iconic.

    Best commercial versions of this song in order:
    1. 1971 Album version.
    2. 1973 Madison square garden
    The outro solo is the bee's knees
    3. 1979 Knebworth festival. During this tour they had made a concerted effort to try and start digging themselves out of the slump they had found themselves. Jimmy's addiction to heroin, John B's famous alcoholism and over the top behavior, Robert plant had lost his very young son to an illness only a few years prior. John Paul Jones didn't have any major issues but he very much disliked having to deal with the excessive lifestyle of the other members.
    4. 1975 Earls court. The band was near peak-clout in terms of world-wide recognition. But even though they were all masters of their craft they were still fairly young dudes ranging from 27-31 so naturally they had no instinct to put any kind of metaphorical guardrails, or limiters on how much excess they could enjoy. It was during this time that the band had really started paying the toll for debauchery and although they didn't know it at the time, the cost for it would ultimately be their longevity.

    oh yeah go studio for sure. Robert's voice was always fresh and preserved allowing for the full Led Zeppelin Experience. I seem to notice that only the early portion of tour dates could Robert belt it out the way he does in the Studio. Their relentless touring coupled with the intense strain of singing Robert's style took a quick toll on his performance. Great coverage again. Try "Out on the tiles" from the 3rd album, that one has such a hard lick with all the Led Zeppelin talent and frills on display. I really do think you would enjoy it.

    My recommendation to you is go find Led Zeppelin 1 and listen to the first song the ever did, Good Times Bad times, and go from there....Take a WHOLE WEEKEND if you need to, and listen to their whole catalogue....in order......and be prepared to hear the best band there ever was or ever will be in Rock and Roll.....These four guys freaked me out from thier very first song I heard....almost 55 years ago!!!
    I was fortunate enough to have heard it all when it first came out....and was even more fortunate enough to have gotten to see them 3 times live in Houston!!!!
    I got to see Zep 2 in 1969.....Houses of the Holy in 1973 (I was a center stage front 20 rows usher for this one!!!)....and Physical Graffitti in 1975........ It was life changing music to every teenager of the era.

    We, who own Zeppelin as our band, never ever gave up on them, solo or reunions. I've met Robert back stage twice and he is a doll, gentle, humble and gorgeous. Seen original Zep twice and Robbie solo 4 times. Just gets better. This is a band that each brought their own style to the castle that lucky night. Robbie loved country and old blues. Bonzo dug old rhythym on the porch stuff. JPJ was a lover of keyboard but bass was his go to in the beginning. Classical was in his blood. And Jimi, rock and roll. Rather than to change any of their styles, they decided to be who they were, mix it in a jar and see what happened. Right from Robbie's mouth. The night he took his best friend Bonzo over, they plugged in and just knew. Like goodbump knew. They never looked back. Keep searching.

    Recommend their live performance of “Since I’ve been loving you” at Madison Square Garden. I swear one of the greatest live performances ever!! This song o definitely prefer their studio version but damn they made great music.

      meh,i prefer their bbc sessions of since i've been loving you,plan'ts voice was still in it's prime before he fucked it up. When he sang it at msg,the voice was already damaged.

    This is the song that got through my soul and took me from kid music to rock n roll. When i heard
    " Hey hey mamma said the way you move gonna make you sweat gonna make you groove " on the radio ....i never looked back. Then Schools Out by Alice Cooper. ..Those 2 songs changed everything. Achilles Last Stand by Zep is a must.
    Now a great reaction would be reacting to the concert video "The Song Remains The Same" . Its almost 2 hours ...do it on 2 or 4 parts. .

    I wish you could come to my house, and spend a day listening to Led Zeppelin. I have almost all of it on vinyl. Play it through a restored 1970’s 125 watt system.

    This song will always remind me of the first time I got to drive without adult supervision. My stepdad let me drive his brand new 1979 Mazda RX-7 down the coast highway from Pacifica, to Santa Barbara, while he slept in the passenger seat. 5 speed, manual transmission, and a sunroof! I was in Heaven! He was so tired that he slept through the whole album.

    Hey I absolutely love led zeppelin but I'd recommend album versions first always, their live stuff can be very hit or miss based on how many subatances they were all taking before playing. When its good it's very good but when it's not...

    I think I remember a story somewhere that talks about Bonham trying to work out the timing on this song... it must have been tough as hell to play live.

    Nobody can touch this band ever. This isn't the best rendition of Black Dog but it's still smokin hot. Check out Whole Lotta Love and Good Times Bad Times. These guys couldn't make a bad song if they tried.

    Led Zeppelin is my "everything" when it comes to music, from the first time I heard "Stairway To Heaven" (I was 13, I am now 62). I had the honor of seeing them twice here in NYC. They are "complex, beautiful, blues oriented, and down and dirty. I dare you to watch the video "Since I've Been Loving You", btw Jimmy Page (the guitarist) is considered one of the best guitarists in music. Had John "Bonzo" Bonham (the drummer) lived, he would have been considered the same. Motley Crue and bands like them are really not good IMO. The only band from that period (before grunge) is Guns 'N Roses are worth listening to. The GOAT guitarist (R.I.P) is Stevie Ray Vaughan (same era '80s).

    The name Black Dog came from literally a black dog that wandered into their studio while they were recording.

    There was a real live black dog which was running around the property where they were recording out in the countryside. I think you can see that pooch on the album cover.

    Heart did a live version of this too. With LZ's permission. Check out Heart's version of Stairway to Heaven, at the 2012 Kennedy Center Honors, when LZ was one of the honorees.
