Just ordered the camo jersey you're wearing in this video as a thank-you for doing this wonderful song that I've been pushing for weeks for you to do!!!! 😊 This is now my favorite video of yours, which is really saying something!!!! 😊
Jamel you should check out some Coverdale - Page which is David Coverdale of Deep Purple and Whitesnake and Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, it sounds EXACTLY like Led Zeppelin because David Coverdale sounds just like Robert Plant. 🔥🙏🙌✌️
thank you brother for playing this. this is the song i tell new listeners to play, it didnt get the air play of some zep songs, but i believe this is what a real hard rock song should sound like... plain and simple
Yes, highly overlooked. It's weird to me to listen to "The Rover" without having already heard "Custard Pie" and following it with "In My Time of Dying." Years of conditioning at work.
So true I’m used to hearing these songs in order cause you don’t skip when listening to Zep. There was a time when the only band I could listen to after Zeppelin was Led Zeppelin
Harping on it being underrated shows he’s a newbie. This is Physical Graffitti - the legendary Holy Grail of Zeppelin records- a record that is listened to its it entirety, and The Rover is like In My Time Of Dying - legendary.
In case you haven't noticed, every song on the double album Physical Graffiti is an absolute classic. Even amongst the amazing series of Zep albums, it is my favorite. It's not so much that "The Rover" is underrated, it's just difficult to choose songs off of this album. For those of us familiar with the entire LZ discography, there is just too much greatness to choose.
@@bobthebear1246 it’s like the 3rd stage of discovering Led Zeppelin. People hear the common ration songs first, which are great, then delve into the albums most of those come from. Then they reach the later albums where they have, in my opinion, really perfected their craft.
@@If6turnsouttobe9 Try to find the Royal Albert Hall concert 1/9/70 - - the Jimmy Page birthday concert. It's sometimes called the Original Tapes, I think. Make sure it starts with We're Gonna Groove, as some versions of the show don't. It is maybe the greatest opener of any live show ever... Oddly, they stopped opening with it soon after, but worth hunting down.
The 70s would have not been the same with out LED ZEPPELIN , The Greatest Rock band all time , Sold over 300 million LPS World wide, Over 100 million in the USA Alone
@@larryronkq586 I got to see them at Earl's Court as a teenager during the Physical Graffiti tour. The best gig I ever witnessed although Van Halen as a support band to Black Sabbath, who were crap, was a close second.
“And our time is flying. See the candle burning low. Is the new world rising, from the shambles of the old?” One of my all time favorite lyrics, gives me chills every time
Or in some Dystopian future, when the first kid makes himself (or herself) a guitar, what do you think the first arpeggios you're going to hear will be? The intro to Stairway! Or "House of the Rising Sun"... followed soon thereafter by Stairway... 🔥
@@mr.knowitall6440 I will be turning 58 in July. Even though I've heard all the Zeppelin songs multiple times when I hear the Rover it still reaches out and makes me listen. Talent is a understatement for all 4 members of Zeppelin. They had it dripping of them. I told my wife if they ever invent a time machine I'm hauling ass back to the 70s. Not to be young again just simply for the music. In my humble opinion the best 20 years of music is from about 1965 to 1985.
This entire album is an epic masterpiece.....acoustic, progressive, heavy funk, hard rock, blues, instrumentals.....nasty, heavy, gentle, surreal. This album is among rock's best ever. TY for staying on the Zep train, Jamel!
This album took my head off when I was a kid, I was raised in a violent shitty home and I used to play nightflight before I ran away and became a streetkid for a few years, that sucked too but it was way better than being punched out and humiliated at home, I eventually sorted myself but this album was one of the soundtracks of my youth, and escape from that place and those people and I will never forget it...
Thanks for sharing this. Dont know why but your story struck me so hard that I think I will remember this every time I hear Night Flight which is fine by me. Keep on keeping on. 🤟
Packed your hopes inside a matchbox because you know it’s time to fly. That was your life literally. Glad you came out the other side in a better place.
I hate to hear you had to go through that, but I’m glad you took off. My childhood was shitty too but I didn’t run away because I didn’t have anywhere to go and had panic attacks often, but I guess I made it through it I’m 68 retired so good music helped a bunch!We gotta hang in there! we made it this far for some reason!🙏🏻
Yes!!!!! Finally!!! Yes, the Rover is one of their most underappreciated songs. Rarely gets any radio airplay which is a sin. Jimmy Page's solo is awesome! Please, please PLEASE react to another song off of this same album, Physical Graffiti, In The Light. Listening to In The Light is simply an out of body experience.
Some other great overlooked underrated gems of theirs are Nobody's Fault But Mine, I'm Gonna Crawl, Custard Pie, Carouselambra, Hey Hey What Can I Do and Tangerine just to name a few.
All of those are great songs, my favorite from that list is I'm gonna crawl, but they are all excellent. Love to hear his reaction to "You're time is gonna come" as well.
Another great Zeppelin song that definitely doesn’t get the respect that it deserves. As long as you’ve circled back to them, please check out their song “Nobody’s Fault But Mine”. Thanks for all of the wonderful music, memories and smiles. Take care.
Amongst true "Led Heads", I think this song is well-loved. It certainly has gotten it's share of radio airplay on Rock Radio back in the day, and on classic rock radio since. But it isn't one that the average "non-Zep Head" rockers would think of, let alone know the name of. It's always been one of my favorites, especially the drums and bass... but the whole thing is great!
Not gonna lie. Back in my school days I liked the song but didn't know the name. Hear it on rock radio somewhat often but the DJs never said it. Like what? "Its Zep so we don't need to give the song title because you should already know it." Well, no. People 5-10 years older than me knew it because they were the ones hearing when the album was released. Another one was "Fool in the Rain".
YAY you did "The Rover!!!!" 😍😁 I just started playing the video but had to pause it just to tell you that I went right to this right-away right after I got your notification. Thank you so much, and I know that you're going to love this amazing song!! Now hitting PLAY!! 😍
My local radio station as a teen did "get the Led out" at 8 pm and they'd play three Zeppelin songs in a row and occasionally you'd hear a deep album cut like this and i would always turn it up
Rock 107 in NE Pennsylvania had a Get The Led Out night. 1986-88 (7th -9th grade) I would wait with my finger on the record button on my boom box. Good memories.
@@ogmandog Paraquat was a total bro! I think he married a model and retired... something like that. That's when DJ's were doing their thing as it should be!
@@ClayLoomis1958. I remember seeing Rodger Waters live during the Radio Chaos tour and Jim was part of the show....just like on the album. So cool. Great voice, great selection of songs he plays on XM radio.
Think about this, they wrote and recorded this song around 1972-1973? Still blows my mind. (Ive been to London, I've seen the seven wonders, I always knew to trip was too far, sometimes I bonged it, sometimes I rolled it, I always knew what it was for!!!) All Hail the Mighty Led Zep!!!!! Thank you Jamal!✌️
My favorite Zep. song, bar none. The driving rhythm, and that back beat counter. Yes, yes, yes. The secondary lead that just keeps churning along in the background, you'd think that Page guy really knows what he's doing.
This is absolutely one of their many underrated "Bangers"!! I used to play in a band that played this. It was a show stopping crowd pleasing full flight rocker. Melodic, funky, groovin' yeah yeah.
listen to the bass in this, phenomenal.... when you have an album of 11, 12 songs and 8 are phenomenal and the other 4 just great....some gonna slip through the cracks, lol
This is an awesome deep cut, one of my favorites, top three in the Zeppelin catalog. Consider nobody's fault but mine. Totally underrated! Jimmy's guitar just soars!
I really must point out that Jonesy is absolutely putting on a "Bass Clinic" in this song! 🤯 He's so locked in with Bonzo, in such a smooth and effortless way, that you can sort of miss what's going on with the bass (for the "uninitiated"). Besides the rest of his awesome grooves, the point just after the lyrics say "There can be no denying, that the wind'll shake 'em down", he does a riff on the bass that is so freaking cool! It sounds like there's some modulation and overdrive on it, and he only does that once in the whole song. When you break it down, it's like he reached into his bag of tricks, and grabs a handful, and gives you a bit of this, and a bit of that... and does it all so smoothly... 👍🤘🔥😎
Yes!! Another banger off my personal favorite Zeppelin album! A 4-sided album that begins with a bang! Side A is "Custard Pie," "The Rover," And "In My Time of Dying!" Perfection! ✌🤟
I'd say under rated. I've been a fan of Zeppelin for 20 years and I just heard it for the first time yesterday. Was blown away that it never plays on the radio. And yes, obviously if I was a huge fan I would've dug deeper in the catalog and listened to it by now, but as much as I like them I haven't felt the need to check everything they did out yet. Nice that this gem was waiting for me.
THE THING THAT WILL REALLY BLOW YOUR MIND IS THEIR DISCOGRAPHY. LOOK IT UP AND SEE THE TIMELINE OF THEIR ALBUMS. IT WILL AMAZE YOU HOW FAST ALL THIS GREAT MUSIC WAS MADE
The first 20 seconds are the heaviest blues rock riff in Led Zep history. Just staggering. Thanks for reacting to this song. It's good someone helped you discover a deep cut only hardcore rockers know.
I used to sing the solo in the car, my then young daughter laughed at me, but hey she grew up to be a great flutist and has a great ear for music. Loved your comment "how can we have so many bangers, oh yeah we great" peace brother ✌
Huge Zeppelin fan. One of my all-time favorite albums - perfection! Bonzo was awesome. Off the top of my head … please consider adding Yes, Scorpions, The Yardbirds, Free, Bad Company, The Kinks (Lola), Blue Oyster Cult (Godzilla), Marvin Gaye, Al Green, and Stevie Wonder, among others, to your repertoire.
LOVE this video!!!! This is now my favorite of yours. To answer your question, yes this is a VERY underrated Led Zeppelin song. It's so funny that, back in my big Led Zeppelin listening days in 1984 when I was 16-17 years old, for some reason I never really played this song, or if I did it didn't make much of an impact on me. But just 2 years ago I rediscovered it, and wondered what the hell I was doing for so long without it. This is now my all-time favorite Led Zep song. Just like you said, it is so funky and groovy and heavy all at the same time. I am in such love with it at the age of 53. Speaking of Dion, I humbly recommend to you his 1989 comeback song "King Of The New York Streets." I guarantee that you will love that one too. Big hugs!!!!
Yes, you explain it very well! Some of Led Zeppelin’s song are really great and all are great! All really good songs are for us. ALL of us! Whether you are male, female, black or white. Music transcends all genres, all ages, all colors. I’ve also watched the Indian couple(as in the country India)react and THAT, Jamel is a real joy to watch & listen to, as are your videos. A real pleasure. Your heart. Your soul. Your rhythm, as well as your reactions jump out of the screen whilst flowing through my headphones!👍👍❤️
I've said it before, and I'll say it again... Led Zeppelin were musical Alchemists. They shall live on long after they or we have taken the "Stairway To Heaven." We all shall have a backstage pass.
Hey Jamel I love Zep, but can you revisit your old friends Deep Purple again. Specifically "Space Truckin" and "Woman From Tokyo". Thanks for considering. Have a nice weekend!
@@sipesthebest128 it being brought up in this discussion made me just listen to it again. "In The Light" has one of the hardest guitar riffs in their catalog. It hits hard every time I hear it.
"How can you have so many bangers?" "Oh bacause we great!" In all of the Led Zeppelin reaction videos I've watched, and believe me I've watched millions, that has to be one of the two best two sentence combos in all of the reactions LMAO
The Rover is such an excellent deep cut from Zep…one of dozens never played on FM radio. This tune is yet another example of the perfection that Zeppelin was…and forever will be.
All right hear me out: I’ve been on the Steely Dan train for the past few months and probably never getting of o there. There’s that one song, ‚Gaucho‘ from their 1980 album with the same title, and it’s just amazing. I beg you, you make amazing reviews full of honesty and appreciation for these old songs, you absolutely must have a listen to this one, and I’m tellin you, I ain’t stopping till you see this ! (Edit: I’ve found your channel a few days ago and like you’re the ONLY one reviewing steely Dan, with that type of honesty and not begging for patreon like these others tubers. Keep on the good work !)
This is absolutely my favorite Led Zeppelin song, with my favorite of Jimmy Page's solos and it is definitely underrated. I didn't hear it on the radio, my first exposure was having a jam session with friends and Joe, the drummer started playing the intro drum riff to this song, then one of the other guitarists started playing that guitar riff and I was dumbfounded.. and hooked. There's a line "my lover she is lying" that hits home with me as I'd met a woman from Poland at work and we started dating, then she had to go back and Poland is almost literally "the dark side of the globe" from my home in Oregon. If I ever met Robert Plant I'd love to ask if "And the wind is crying, from a love that won't grow cold" is a nod to "The Wind Cries Mary"
True, to me no Zeppelin is underrated, maybe underappreciated by the people who don't know LED Zeppelin, but it seems like when people start listening to them they all start appreciating them.
A MAJOR badass song, one of my top 10. Hell, half of my favorite Zep songs come from this, their best album: Custard Pie, Trampled Under Foot, Kashmir, The Wanton Song, Boogie With Stu. As a guitarist, these were the first songs I loved and learned from the album.
Physical Graffiti is such a classic album. I don't think it's underrated I think it's just on such a long list of classic songs that you tend to forget about because they have so many. They were such an incredible band with diverse songs, hard to ignore their catalogue. Thanks for the reactions Jamel_AKA_Jamal you're certainly helping me out.
One of their more Hard Rock efforts! I still play it on my guitar all these years later ! Good choice and review! Zeppelin is a melting pot of different styles of music
It took me forever to find this song. It wasn't on the greatest hits. My brother in law was huge fan of Led, and didn't know it. I caught it once on late night radio while driving, and spent years searching for it. Thank you internet.
I'm a Led Head bro and I did not recognize this by it's name. I just remember it came out, I had a break up, and spent the night sitting on top of my van in the Cali desert with the wind blowing and this album blasting from my speakers through the night below the stars! Refreshing sound, refreshing breeze, even though was weak in my knees. Give me Led until I am dead and long live brother J!
Zeppelin filmed the entire Seattle Kingdome show on 7-17-77. That entire show (3 1/2 hours) is on UA-cam ! The second song they played was PART of "The Rover", then went into "Sick Again". Of course I had my arms over the front wall. Was a glorious show. ;-)

The thing about Led Zeppelin is that even their "low profile" songs are absolute🔥.
This is one of my favorites! This one is just stanky and oozing with confidence from all four of them.
Exactly.....even “through away” tunes are good
The Rover is one of my favorite Zeppelin songs, and it didn’t even make their 54 song box set or their concert setlists.
The chord flops make my head do Doogie motions...
Our parents called it devil music...
Yes, highly overlooked. It's weird to me to listen to "The Rover" without having already heard "Custard Pie" and following it with "In My Time of Dying." Years of conditioning at work.
I don't know how many reactions I listen to when I'm singing the next song or humming the lick
So true I’m used to hearing these songs in order cause you don’t skip when listening to Zep. There was a time when the only band I could listen to after Zeppelin was Led Zeppelin
Ha! Exactly. We're just really smart monkeys after all.
Physical Graffiti kicks ass!
Yep!
It's not underrated to true Zep heads, which you are now one of us.
I was gonna say, is there any such thing as an underrated Zep tune? ESPECIALLY off this album!
Harping on it being underrated shows he’s a newbie. This is Physical Graffitti - the legendary Holy Grail of Zeppelin records- a record that is listened to its it entirety, and The Rover is like In My Time Of Dying - legendary.

True, but it is still underrated, though. I never really paid much attention to it until just a couple of years ago.
@@bobthebear1246 it’s like the 3rd stage of discovering Led Zeppelin. People hear the common ration songs first, which are great, then delve into the albums most of those come from. Then they reach the later albums where they have, in my opinion, really perfected their craft.
@@jonathanradcliff6192 Very true, man. Just shows how amazing this band was. God. Just incredible. ❤️
Yep, it just depends on which part of life you’re living at the moment that determines which songs are a little better than the others.

The whole album Coda is badass, for a throw-together. My band, we used to cover 'We're Gonna Groove'. Great song too
@@If6turnsouttobe9 that was live from royal albert hall in 1970, jimmy overdubbed it and i wish he hadnt

I really must point out that
Jonesy is absolutely putting on a "Bass Clinic" in this song! 🤯
He's so locked in with Bonzo, in such a smooth and effortless way, that you can sort of miss what's going on with the bass (for the "uninitiated").
Besides the rest of his awesome grooves, the point just after the lyrics say "There can be no denying, that the wind'll shake 'em down", he does a riff on the bass that is so freaking cool! It sounds like there's some modulation and overdrive on it, and he only does that once in the whole song.
When you break it down, it's like he reached into his bag of tricks, and grabs a handful, and gives you a bit of this, and a bit of that... and does it all so smoothly... 👍🤘🔥😎
I'm telling you once you listen to zeppelin you can never get tired of led zeppelin....the greatest rock band that has played on this earth.
Whole lot to love here. It's not like you can go wrong with the mighty Led Zep. Keep getting the Led out!!
“..cause we great...” There is that❤️
I haven't even started watching yet... But "Oh Lawd!" I know you're gonna love this!! 🤯😎
Yes!! Another banger off my personal favorite Zeppelin album! A 4-sided album that begins with a bang! Side A is "Custard Pie," "The Rover," And "In My Time of Dying!" Perfection! ✌🤟
"YOUR TIME IS GONNA COME"...!!! You're really missing out on this one...!
One of these days and it wont be long
My favorite song!!
Jamel, you ought to try out No Quarter. Trippy. You'll love it!
I'd say under rated. I've been a fan of Zeppelin for 20 years and I just heard it for the first time yesterday. Was blown away that it never plays on the radio.
And yes, obviously if I was a huge fan I would've dug deeper in the catalog and listened to it by now, but as much as I like them I haven't felt the need to check everything they did out yet. Nice that this gem was waiting for me.
THE THING THAT WILL REALLY BLOW YOUR MIND IS THEIR DISCOGRAPHY. LOOK IT UP AND SEE THE TIMELINE OF THEIR ALBUMS. IT WILL AMAZE YOU HOW FAST ALL THIS GREAT MUSIC WAS MADE
The first 20 seconds are the heaviest blues rock riff in Led Zep history. Just staggering. Thanks for reacting to this song. It's good someone helped you discover a deep cut only hardcore rockers know.
I used to sing the solo in the car, my then young daughter laughed at me, but hey she grew up to be a great flutist and has a great ear for music. Loved your comment "how can we have so many bangers, oh yeah we great" peace brother ✌
My favorite song ever created 🕊✨❤️
Huge Zeppelin fan. One of my all-time favorite albums - perfection! Bonzo was awesome.
Off the top of my head … please consider adding Yes, Scorpions, The Yardbirds, Free, Bad Company, The Kinks (Lola), Blue Oyster Cult (Godzilla), Marvin Gaye, Al Green, and Stevie Wonder, among others, to your repertoire.
My favorite Zep song... Since the 70's.
Definitely underrated , their music can overshadow other songs , as a whole Graffiti is great ! Thanks for this sleeper Jamel!
LOVE this video!!!! This is now my favorite of yours. To answer your question, yes this is a VERY underrated Led Zeppelin song. It's so funny that, back in my big Led Zeppelin listening days in 1984 when I was 16-17 years old, for some reason I never really played this song, or if I did it didn't make much of an impact on me. But just 2 years ago I rediscovered it, and wondered what the hell I was doing for so long without it. This is now my all-time favorite Led Zep song. Just like you said, it is so funky and groovy and heavy all at the same time. I am in such love with it at the age of 53.
Speaking of Dion, I humbly recommend to you his 1989 comeback song "King Of The New York Streets." I guarantee that you will love that one too. Big hugs!!!!
IF there are any, this song would be on that would be considered to be a Led Zeppelin "deep cut". 🙏🙌✌️
Yes, you explain it very well! Some of Led Zeppelin’s song are really great and all are great! All really good songs are for us. ALL of us! Whether you are male, female, black or white. Music transcends all genres, all ages, all colors. I’ve also watched the Indian couple(as in the country India)react and THAT, Jamel is a real joy to watch & listen to, as are your videos. A real pleasure. Your heart. Your soul. Your rhythm, as well as your reactions jump out of the screen whilst flowing through my headphones!👍👍❤️
I've said it before, and I'll say it again... Led Zeppelin were musical Alchemists. They shall live on long after they or we have taken the "Stairway To Heaven." We all shall have a backstage pass.
THE ROVER!! YES!!
Hey Jamel I love Zep, but can you revisit your old friends Deep Purple again. Specifically "Space Truckin" and "Woman From Tokyo". Thanks for considering. Have a nice weekend!
Pictures of Home
YYEEESSS, Let's Go Space Truckin! great tune!!!
Yes! This is their most underated song. Straight out banger!
Yeah, and I don’t think you have tried “In The Light” or “Sick Again” yet.
In the Light might put him in a stank face coma haha
Chaos Thierry That’s true.
Yes and yes!!
@@chaost4544
He may pass out completely...
@@sipesthebest128 it being brought up in this discussion made me just listen to it again. "In The Light" has one of the hardest guitar riffs in their catalog. It hits hard every time I hear it.
can't have enough of those all time great Zeppelin songs...keep 'em coming Jamal!!!
Zeppelin and The Beatles filler songs on their albums would be huge hits for any other group that ever was. They were just that good.
My favorite Led Zeppelin song is all of them.
"How can you have so many bangers?"
"Oh bacause we great!"
In all of the Led Zeppelin reaction videos I've watched, and believe me I've watched millions, that has to be one of the two best two sentence combos in all of the reactions LMAO
The Rover is such an excellent deep cut from Zep…one of dozens never played on FM radio. This tune is yet another example of the perfection that Zeppelin was…and forever will be.
Been waiting for this one!!💕
“How can you have so many bangers? Oh because we great.” That’s is a statement of truth. Led Zep set the bar for the rest to follow.
All right hear me out: I’ve been on the Steely Dan train for the past few months and probably never getting of o there. There’s that one song, ‚Gaucho‘ from their 1980 album with the same title, and it’s just amazing. I beg you, you make amazing reviews full of honesty and appreciation for these old songs, you absolutely must have a listen to this one, and I’m tellin you, I ain’t stopping till you see this !
(Edit: I’ve found your channel a few days ago and like you’re the ONLY one reviewing steely Dan, with that type of honesty and not begging for patreon like these others tubers. Keep on the good work !)
@@elysehfm8797 that ain’t the matter, what’s the point here is that he should review some more steely Dan ;)
@@elysehfm8797 yeah I know, it’s amazing that he reviewed so many of them already, buuuut a few key ones are missing !
This is absolutely my favorite Led Zeppelin song, with my favorite of Jimmy Page's solos and it is definitely underrated. I didn't hear it on the radio, my first exposure was having a jam session with friends and Joe, the drummer started playing the intro drum riff to this song, then one of the other guitarists started playing that guitar riff and I was dumbfounded.. and hooked. There's a line "my lover she is lying" that hits home with me as I'd met a woman from Poland at work and we started dating, then she had to go back and Poland is almost literally "the dark side of the globe" from my home in Oregon. If I ever met Robert Plant I'd love to ask if "And the wind is crying, from a love that won't grow cold" is a nod to "The Wind Cries Mary"
I don't know about underrated, this is one of my favorite LZ songs. Then again, they have such an amazing catalog my list of favorites is a long one.
True, to me no Zeppelin is underrated, maybe underappreciated by the people who don't know LED Zeppelin, but it seems like when people start listening to them they all start appreciating them.
Yeah it's like "This is one of my favorites"... along with 99% of their songs...
There is so much good about this song.
The Groove in this track cannot be denied.
One of my favorite Zep songs ever
Zeppelin has great B sides the rolling stones as well Well keep doing your thing and Keep great music alive 👍💀⚡🌹✌💨💨
In The Light, Bron-Yr-Aur, Down by the Seaside, 10 Years Gone all in a row just like the album!!
Am I the onlyone who loves the song "Houses of the Holy"? I haven't seen anyone else request it.
You're right!! Another great song off of - surprisingly - *Physical Graffiti.* 😊
I like the confusing aspect of which album is it on. The real zep heads know.
I told your momma i'ld get you home, but I didn't say that I had no car.
Nope, you’re definitely not the only one! Non-Zep superfans might not be able to find it lol if they’re looking on the HOTH album
A MAJOR badass song, one of my top 10. Hell, half of my favorite Zep songs come from this, their best album: Custard Pie, Trampled Under Foot, Kashmir, The Wanton Song, Boogie With Stu. As a guitarist, these were the first songs I loved and learned from the album.
Physical Graffiti is such a classic album. I don't think it's underrated I think it's just on such a long list of classic songs that you tend to forget about because they have so many. They were such an incredible band with diverse songs, hard to ignore their catalogue. Thanks for the reactions Jamel_AKA_Jamal you're certainly helping me out.
One of their more Hard Rock efforts! I still play it on my guitar all these years later ! Good choice and review! Zeppelin is a melting pot of different styles of music
This whole album is a banger. Have a Blessed Day Brother Jamel.
It took me forever to find this song. It wasn't on the greatest hits. My brother in law was huge fan of Led, and didn't know it. I caught it once on late night radio while driving, and spent years searching for it. Thank you internet.
John Bonham is the greatest drummer to have ever hit a drum.
I'm a Led Head bro and I did not recognize this by it's name. I just remember it came out, I had a break up, and spent the night sitting on top of my van in the Cali desert with the wind blowing and this album blasting from my speakers through the night below the stars! Refreshing sound, refreshing breeze, even though was weak in my knees. Give me Led until I am dead and long live brother J!
Very underrated song from them.
Zeppelin filmed the entire Seattle Kingdome show on 7-17-77.
That entire show (3 1/2 hours) is on UA-cam !
The second song they played was PART of "The Rover", then went into "Sick Again".
Of course I had my arms over the front wall. Was a glorious show. ;-)
Hey, man! Please do ‘Gallows Pole’!!!
