      Led Zeppelin are very hot on copyright enforcement.... I think only band that is worse are The Eagles! I think you're way round it though is to pause and make comments during the performance.. if it is not continuous and you add something of value to it, then you're OK. I've seen other "reaction" channels apologise for the pauses, but say they have to do it. Good luck anyway, i love your reviews so far. ❤

Maybe Floyd, Yes, and Tull sounded the closet live as in studio. Other then that, can't think of one..thro a few at me..I've probably seen them. To date, I believe I've attached a little over 600 concerts. All up and down east coast and even a few in Europe

    The Guitar the Jimmy Page is playing is a Gibson double neck, it has a 12 string on the top and regular 6 string on the bottom, but other configurations can be had. It is a beautiful sound, no distortion just pure clean sounds! Robert Plant is an amazing singer and always has been as is Jimmy Page an amazing guitarist. Let’s not forget John Bonham (RIP) the drummer and John Paul Jones on bass / keys.
    This song is absolutely iconic, an absolute masterpiece! However the intro does have the reputation of being one of the ‘forbidden riffs’ in guitar shops mostly down to how badly it is often played 😂. You need to read the lyrics to understand the song, it has plenty of meaning!
    If you think this song is ‘sassy’ then Whole lotta love will give your expectations a treat 😂

    A band of four virtuosos. Their improvisation skills were sublime. It was said they never played a song the same way twice in live shows.
    They disbanded when their drummer John Bonham died in 1980.
    They reunited for a one off show in 2007 and John Bonham's son Jason played drums on this occasion.
    Check out a song called Kashmir from this show,
    It was called Celebration day.

    Your reaction is exactly why so many people around the world are still turning on to Led Zeppelin on a daily basis. Being born in the mid 1960s and having several close relatives that were a few years older than me, I can honestly say I have been listening to Led Zeppelin as long as I can remember and am so grateful that I have had the opportunity to do so. It is so awesome to see a first time listener become entranced almost immediately. Led Zeppelin, and all the greatest musicians of time all seemed to have had two things in common, they could tell a great tale, and they were a feeling, not a particular feeling, just a feeling. Great reaction. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes in 2024.

      During the calmer, more mellow beginning of the song, Jimmy Page strummed chords on the 12-string.
      Then, when they blew the lid off, during the guitar solo, Page switched to the 6-string lead to play that chain of brain-melting riffs. 😊
      The fact that Page had two instruments in one meant he could switch seamlessly between sounds.

    Check out Pink Floyd, try 'Time', followed by 'The Great Gig in the Sky'. These two tracks have to be heard together. The latter may bring on a few tears its so beautiful. PF were and still are in a genre of their own. PF will bring your spirit back back down and you'll feel so mellow - well most of the time.

What made Zeppelin the success they are is their raw integration of all the great blues legends ran through their unabashed youth and vitality mixed with the timely explosion of 60's...Shout out to the Beatles, Stones, Grand Funk Railroad and dozens of others Rock legends who came to bloom in the same era.....beautiful soulful musical era.

    Stacy, I just came across your channel for the first time today. I am very impressed with your insights to the music. Your ‘Stairway’ reaction is about the fifth or sixth video of yours I have watched this morning. I have one bit of advice I would like to offer. With very few exceptions, the purest way to be introduced to a song is the way we were originally. By the album cut. In the 70’s, we would buy the album, take it home and listen to it first to last. Each song, in its purest form. No distractions from crowds. Just the music. Usually with our headphones on with the volume cranked up. Then, when we went to the concerts we go the enhanced versions. Even today, I mostly prefer the album cuts over a live version (I did enjoy the Phil Collin’s ’In the air Tonight’ video). Also, check out the softer side of the ‘70’s. Player, ‘Baby come back’. Anything by The Carpenters. Exile, ‘Kiss you all over’. Are just a few. Keep up the great work.

    Stairway To Heaven
    There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
    And she's buying a stairway to Heaven
    When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
    With a word she can get what she came for
    Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to Heaven
    There's a sign on the wall, but she wants to be sure
    'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
    In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings
    Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
    Ooh, it makes me wonder
    Ooh, makes me wonder
    There's a feeling I get when I look to the West
    And my spirit is crying for leaving
    In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
    And the voices of those who stand looking
    Ooh, it makes me wonder
    Ooh, really makes me wonder
    And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
    Then the piper will lead us to reason
    And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
    And the forests will echo with laughter
    Oh-oh-oh-oh-whoa
    If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now
    It's just a spring clean for the May queen
    Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
    There's still time to change the road you're on
    And it makes me wonder
    Ohh, whoa
    Your head is humming, and it won't go, in case you don't know
    The piper's calling you to join him
    Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow? And did you know
    Your stairway lies on the whispering wind?
    And as we wind on down the road
    Our shadows taller than our soul
    There walks a lady we all know
    Who shines white light and wants to show
    How everything still turns to gold
    And if you listen very hard
    The tune will come to you at last
    When all are one, and one is all
    To be a rock and not to roll
    And she's buying a stairway to Heaven
    Composers: Jimmy Page / Robert Anthony Plant

    I saw Robert Plant (the lead singer) in concert in the mid 90's and I sat there crying like a baby the entire time. I just couldn't believe I was in his presence. There are many rock gods but he is THE rock god. There is no better singer in the history of the world. You would do yourself a HUGE favor if you dove headfirst into led Zeppelin and listened to their entire catalog.

    When the song was recorded for the album, back in 1971, Jimmy Page, the guitarist, played a 6 string and separate 12 string guitar.
    To do it in concert he played this double necked Gibson so he could get the same sound from the album.
    Check out "Dazed and Confused" and "The Song Remains the Same/The Rain Song" for more epic guitar work.

    I really enjoyed your reaction and learning about the band. Certainly I would feel that they can compete with anything we have now. Too bad about the death of the drummer and their breakup so early in their progress.
    I was fortunate enough to see them 5 times total, including 3 of the 5 total shows held at Earl's Court in London, England, May 1975. There is a video out of that concert, with Stairway to Heaven, that is an alternate to this one, with 33 million views. This 1975 video is what they played at the time: 3 hours. The 3 shows I saw were on consecutive days, so that was 9 hours of Led Zeppelin total in 3 days!!
    "Stairway to Heaven" was probably the best place to start a Zep journey. As a long time fan, however, I would recommend a slightly different video, if you really want to appreciate the success of the band. The video I would recommend is "Led Zeppelin - Dazed and Confused (London 1969 Live Good Quality)", currently with 3.9 million views, uploaded at "Metalrocker077". Don't rush, but if you could review that one in a month or two it would be a great experience for you. 😘

    The original album versions are usually better because they’re longer and they’re what the artist wanted. Radio stations prefer songs that are 3 to 3 1/2 minutes max so you have radio edits for the single 45 versions. The members of Led Zeppelin never allowed any of their music to be cut as a consequence of that their highest chart success was a number 16

    The question has always been: “What was the origin of Led Zeppelin’s music?” Was it blues, early rock, pop, and soul, or something somewhat more sinister. Check out Aleister Crowley and his influence on Zeppelin, the Stones, and even the Beatles. Stacey, you keep coming back to “sexy,” and you nailed it. And yes, Plant’s pants were purposeful-the question there was whether that look was real. 100 Zeppelin songs. 99% are sex. Try “Whole Lotta Love,” “The Lemon Song,” and . . . Be careful here Stacey-Zeppelin and far too many of these bands may be more than meets the eyes and ears.

    IMHO, Zeppelin is the greatest R&R band to ever exist, and likely ever will. There were no weak members, and they always strived for excellence and innovation. They produced across most genres (metal, pop, jazz, country, folk, etc.). This happens to be my favorite rendition of Stairway, but the studio version should be heard for its "cleanness". Nobody commanded a stage like they did. There songbook is just an ongoing collection of awesome. Whole Lotta Love, Thank You, Nobody's Fault But Mine, Gallow's Pole, When The Levee Breaks, All of My Love, and on and on. A few years ago, a reporter asked the lead singer, Robert Plant, "If young people coming up in the business want to emulate Zeppelin, what advice would you give?" His answer? "Dress to the left." Those pants made the ladies lose their sh*t. The GOAT.

    No auto tune, no click track, just 3 monster musicians that are masters of their craft and a singer that can sing. Sound reinforcement on stage in the early 70s was not close to what it is today. I'll bet money that Robert Plant could barely hear himself on stage and yet still was able to sing in tune. I read an article one time where a classical music composer dissected this song and basically said it's perfect....it couldn't be improved upon. Growing up in the 70s, this song was everywhere. It played on the radio so much we actually grew tired of hearing it over time, as brilliant as the song is. This was the second or third song I learned to play on the guitar and I'm not alone there. Seeing you hear this for the first time brought me back to when I heard it for the first time.

    This is a deep rabbit hole you've started here. I can honestly say they have about 75-80 songs that are totally worth reacting to. Just about anywhere you go from here is going to be fine. They have so many different types of styles in their songs; blues, hard rock, acoustic guitar, and even a country-ish song (Down by the Seaside). From this live concert which is from Madison Square Garden in 1973, there are so many great songs. Here is the track list. Just pick any of them or go in the order of the album. Can't miss.
    1] Rock and Roll
    2] Celebration Day
    3] Black Dog
    4] Over the Hills and Far Away
    5] Misty Mountain Hop
    6] Since I've Been Loving You
    7] No Quarter
    8] The Song Remains the Same/9] The Rain Song
    10] The Ocean
    11] Dazed and Confused (be warned. this is a 30 minute song)
    12] Stairway to Heaven
    13] Moby Dick (big long drum solo)
    14] Heartbreaker
    15] Whole Lotta Love

    If you noticed in the beginning and the very end of the Stairway to heaven song, Jimmy Page was using the upper 12 string neck. And that's because he is using the finger picking technique untilizing the tips of his nails on each of his fingers on his right hand. Using this finger picking technique makes the guitar sound more soft, calm and pretty only twice as much as just using the 6 string neck. The 12 string neck is also used for strumming the chords when not finger picking. Now when it comes to using the lower 6 string neck, it is mainly used in this case for the lead solo riffs like you heard Jimmy go off on in the middle of the song for over 3 minutes or so. It's not to say that a guitar player cannot do any finger picking or strumming on the 6 string neck. A guitar player has the option of using either if she or he chooses to. But more than likely if a guitar player is using a double neck guitar, she or he was planning to use this type of guitar in that manner for this masterpiece of a song that stood the test of time, being that it was written in the early 70's. I hope I explained it for you in such a way to help you understand this much easier. I'm kinda buzzin right now and drinking my Budweiser and playing my own Ovation guitar. Just taking a break right now to watch your show. I been in the business for over 40 years and trust me, your doing a great job. Good luck and keep up the good work in your reaction videos.

    Robert Plant was a very sexual singer. He dressed the part, to be sure, but a lot was in those gestures you and many others mention. He does use his hands expressively. Plant also smiled a lot at a time when many singers were trying to be too cool. It looked like he was having fun. Those smiles, sometimes almost coy, often targeted ladies in the audience. He most definitely knew he had sex appeal and used it. You need a lot of self-confidence to do what he did and there was never any shortage of that, as you see by those jeans. Plant was also quite chatty between songs, comments made in the moment that helped make every concert unique to the night. I saw one 1970s band that had their onstage banters scripted to the last word.
    In old age Plant has not tried to be Kiss and remain locked to a past image. The hair is still long, It is no longer a mane but worn in an age appropriate pony tail. There is a beard that does not hide the deep lines in his face. The shirt is now done up and the trousers a much more comfortable fit. The onstage chat remains the same or maybe more. He likes to set the scene for the songs. The voice no longer has the full range of the 20 something but still distinctly Plant in tone. His song choices fit the reality of where his voice is. He has in recent years made music with bluegrass queen Alison Krauss. Plant is ageing gracefully
