Wait until you get to Zeppelin IV!!
Good choice for today! Go team! 🏈
Zeppelin didn't change with the times, they changed the times.
Led Zepplin III is one of my favorite favorite albums out of all of Led Zeppelin albums. It has Rock to rhythm and blues, it's worth to listen to on vynale you will not regret it.
I simply LOVED when this,album was released. Often, a band's 3rd LP is unique, and this introduced a new maturity, development and direction. The 4th is often where everything all culminates. But this one add both the beautiful acoustic emotional psychedelic country Folk plus their Hardrock Funky Blues. This is ZEP juat about to peak. Friends was mesmerizing and hypnotic to me as an early 70s teen and nostalgically still affects me. ZEP made me a Black Hippie! LOL. LZ were the template for EVERY HARDROCK BAND thereafter!
Zep had been recording and touring furiously for more than a year prior to this album. After going from playing school halls and small clubs, they were now the biggest band in the world. So what did they do? Instead of more of the same, they unplugged, took their acoustic guitars into a remote cottage in the woods, took a deep breath, and stepped back to rediscover who they were. A large majority of this album are acoustic tracks, and it brought greater "lightness" to their music. This was hugely important for albums after this one. They already mastered "heavy," now they are mastering "light." When they finally put this together in future albums, especially the next album, they created their masterpiece. After this album, it was harder to compare the heavy metal bands they are often tried to be categorized to them....their musical range was so far beyond their peers.
My husband is the type of guy that remembers damn near everything he heard and saw in his 70 plus years on this earth. He said when this was released, while he was overseas, everyone just sat there for a minute and collectively said, "What the hell was that?" And they put it away and couldn't wait til LZ IV came out. But in time he revisited LZ 3 again and really enjoyed it! He said he felt it was him maturing as a man and as a listener of music!
Great story. A lot of people were taken by surprise with the change of pace....but later albums confirmed this diversion was critical to their growth.
@@susanfigueroa872 Bit like Rush’s third album which was a bit of a WTF at the time, or so the record company thought. But then their next album 2112 became iconic, rather like Untitled did for Led Zep.
@@susanfigueroa872 I'm 61 and I went through the same experience. I was so focused on the other albums I neglected LP III. Later on I rediscovered it and learned to appreciate and love it.
An underrated Led Zeppelin album.
Not really.
By who? It's a masterpiece.
@@VampireJack10 Jimmy Page said that the negative press given to the third album affected him so much that he did not give press interviews for 18 months after its release, adding that the criticism was one of the reasons why the following album contained no written information on it at all.
This album was a response to the critics.
They proved they could play anything.
no bad led zeppelin songs no bad albums always experimenting with new sounds and new textures with that signature sound that makes them one of the greatest rock bands to ever exist!
i love the way you hear and listen to the music!! THANKS
Getting the led out ! A lot of people don't like Zep 3 but I do. It shows the band isn't a one trick pony and they can play any type of music. This is why they're the best!
3 is my favourite Zep album, due to its variety. I love all their albums, but always come back to this one the most.
@@VampireJack10 right on ! I also really like Presence, For Your Life especially , it's one of my favorite Zeppelin tracks but the so-called critics didn't like this album .
@@edwardcapobianco2975 fuck the critics and love what you love.
@@VampireJack10 I agree with that cause that fruit cup Jan Wenner and Rolling Stone used to trash Led Zeppelin when I was a kid and I would say to myself are they listening to the same f****** album that I am??? At least Creem magazine gave the right f******review!!! Rolling Stone was and still is shit. The idiots on the board to elect groups into the Rock and roll Hall of Fame.
This album is where Led Zeppelin started to open up their creative and collective minds. At that time they were driving the music not chasing it. That is to say rock...not pop rock!!! Great job guys!!!
You will discover more joyful surprise in not being able to "nail down" this band. Not JUST hard rock. Not JUST acoustic. Not JUST eastern influences. Not JUST hypnotic rhythms. They do all those and more, and do it all very well indeed! Their spectrum is as wide as the space between our ears. Diggin your reactions!
These two songs really "go together," you don't want to hear one without the other.
Even better example is on Zeppelin II, with "Heartbreaker/Living Loving Maid."
WTF? was my first reaction to this album. Now, it's my favourite. It needs a few run-throughs, but once you've got it, you'll see it! Keep up the great work and thank you!
I tear up remembering discovering this band all alone and turned hundreds if teenagers onto in the early/mid 80's. No kids knew them so I remember bringing my boom box on the school but and won over every person including the bus driver. It was a special time and drastically improved my chance with the cute girls. Man...good times
Nice one guys, I like how you went back and set up the lead in. I feel like "Tangerine & That's the Way" on side two also go together. Pretty sure the critics shredded this record when it came out, although I think they hated them all at this point. This "led' to them to not putting any lettering, band name, logos' or even track listings of any kind on jacket for Zeppelin IV, heh heh.
At first you think wtf? then you think 'but they produced LZ Iand LZ II, so they can't be wrong?' And they weren't. This album is spot on! And Thank you guys. LOVE TO ALL.
The promised land is America...because America loved them and we had the best fans!
They're untouchable.
They were still evolving when John departed.
Coffee and THC...Celebration Day! God bless, gentlemen!!
jimmy knows how to layer riffs like a pure master craftsman. I am still hearing new elements within the tracks and i have been into them for about 40 years ! every album is amazing and never gets old. all my best to you and yours from Liverpool
I love the outtro on Celebration Day. That could go on forever.
@@redpine8665 what a amazing outro . the lads have some good music ahead of them to discover
I freaking love when jimmy layers....the final two riffs in ten years gone may be my favorite example
I heard this song yesterday on Sirius Classic Vinyl Classics. Live version of Led Zeppelin Heartbreaker. Blew me away!! never heard it before. from 1972 Heartbreaker (Live 1972) (Remaster)
Guys, you need to hear Led Zeppelin's "In My Time of Dying" from their album Physical Graffiti. There's also a great live version at Earls Court, 1975.
Word and a half! I THINK these guys are doin the "Zepathon," so they still have a few albums to go b4 PG, but yeah, it's a godsend (so to speak) of a song!
2 superb songs!!! They are the most diverse band ever!
celebration day is always good..never gets old..all 4 shine on it
Glad to see u reacting to another Zeppelin song. This album came out October 1970 where Zeppelin 1 and 2 came out in 1969. Can’t wait for u to react to “ Since I’ve Been Loving You”, it’s on this album. So many more songs to go.
You’re going to love the live version of Celebration Day when you get to it.
Robert would sometimes introduce this as "the New York song" because he said he was inspired to write it after visiting the city. It has a great, jubilant bounce to the overall tone and was definitely different from anything heard on the first 2 albums. By this album, they were all coming into their own from the type of lyrics, the instrumentation, the production - everything so there were really stretching their creativity.
Sweet! Jones drops a super groovy bass line and Page drops a great guitar solo too often overlooked in his catalog of great solos.
Led Zepplin 1, bam. Led Zepplin 2 bam bam. 3 - wam bam thankyou man...
This recording Led Zep had captured some of the Folk and Acoustic influences they enjoyed listening to and jamming on.
My favorite Zeppelin album. Glad you guys are choosing such a wide variety of artists. Got this as a Christmas present in 1970 when I was 13.
Unfortunately when I got divorced in the mid 90’s I had to take a job across the country and had very little money or space to store my almost 2K albums so I stored them at my parents. During that time my parents moved to a retirement village and we had to make the choice sell them for nothing close to what they were worth. They were all in near perfect condition.
Both my now college age sons are into vinyl and most of the bands I like but mostly Zep, Yes, Ramones and all iterations of King Crimson. Bought my youngest about 5 years ago for Christmas a first pressing of Led Zep III for $75 from a local dealer.
FYI, if you are into old vinyl be sure to by first pressings of the pre 73 releases. With the oil problems during that period quality went down because the oil expense caused record companies to skimp on the amount used.
As a pack-rat, I'm horrified to hear about your album collection, lol! That sucks, man. My Dad spent four years in the Army (mostly in Korea during the war), and when he came back his mom had THROWN OUT his hundreds if not thousands of comic books! He was also a pack rat (where i get it from, ha), but he also said they would have later been worth a small fortune , as he's quite sure he had many early Supermans, Batmans, all those old collectibles you hear about going for HUGE money! Ah, well. Thanks for the tip on the pre-73 oil. I don't buy vinyl, but a definite pro tip for those who do! Shout out to King Crimson fandom also!
This is the perfect to to react to a song that INCREDIBLY did not make this album, but instead was released as the B-side of the 45 of, "The Immigrant Song".
It's called, *"Hey Hey What Can I Do",* and it is an acoustic masterpiece, in which Robert tells us his dilemma of having fallen in love with a prostitute.
Many Zep diehard fans, myself included, rank it among their top 5 or 10 Zep songs of all-time, I guarantee you'll love it!
Time for some live Led Zeppelin. Try Whole Lotta Love from the Madison Square Garden concert !
Check out the video of 'Celebration Day' from MSG 1973 outtake from the concert TSRTS! That..kicks ass! The quintessential Led Zeppelin video, in my humble opinion guys. Cheers!
I'm a fan of Zep due to their incorporation of many genres and excelling at them all, much the same reason I also adore The Clash, who for me are the punk rock equivalent of Led Zeppelin.
For such a small island Great Britain has punched above our weight with music.
Beatles.
Rolling Stones.
Led Zep.
Pink Floyd.
The Clash.
Queen.
The Who.
Iron Maiden.
Black Sabbath.
Deep Purple.
Fleetwood Mac.
That's just the first ones I think of, but there are MANY more legendary acts from this sceptred isle.
Globally both Britain and the US have DOMINATED music for decades.
Get ready fellows next song on that album is a blues masterpiece
I can remember goin through the progression of their albums in the 70's and they just keep evolving and start getting a little heavier..It's awesome to see you guys react to it..Great channel!! Shout out from the old metal head from Detroit..
You guys are digging deep, listening to a lot of Zep songs. You really need to add studio version of In My Time of Dying to your list (from Physical Graffiti). One of the great drum tracks ever, maybe Bonzo's best, saying a lot. You'll love it, guaranteed. Also, continuing with Zep III, is very interesting album with lots of different flavors on it. Gallows Pole is great folkish tune but with nice orchestration of instruments, and there's lots of great folky tunes on 3 (Bron Yr Aur Stomp, That's the Way). It's fun to hear your reactions, very insightful.
Thanks for dropping this one today. Your comments are spot on, they were ever evolving and changing but still rooted in blues and rock. I cannot wait for you to get to their next album, pure genius. Enjoy the game.
Es la esencia del rock, y acustico!!!
Thanks for taking the time to listen. This is a great album.
Always loved this back to back between, Friends and Celebration Day. The 73 MTGarden show with the roll into Cel Day is also a nice one. Love the channel guys. Simply killin it. 👈😎
Considering 1969 Led Zeppelin I, 1969 Led Zeppelin II and 1970 Led Zeppelin III. A little bit than a year for 3 masterpiece albums compare to todays 1 ok song every 5 years.
Thanks guys! All the Zep albums are unique and awesome in their own way. Love this one!
Pretty damn dynamic, huh?
I was hoping y'all would catch this one next. Good job guys.
Celebration Day is a Sister Track to Hats off to Roy Harper
Two more great tunes by Zep. Thanks for playing. Have a great Superbowl Sunday Funday. I know somebody will be having a Celebration Day!
You have a great Super Bowl Sunday as well
Hey guys, Ned from Spain dropping by to say thank you for all your videos and love to watch your reactions. I remember this LP got slammed by people expecting LZ to stay the same and Jimmy, Robert, Bonzo and John Paul had other ideas. This was a transitional album, with some outstanding and unique material. Page even does some pedal steel playing and it includes the shattering " Since I've Been Loving You". All the best, peace.
Back to the good old stuff , Thank you👍🥰
Guys, once you've exhausted entire Led Zeppelin catalogue and still need more - consider *Dread Zeppelin* An interesting twist on *Zeppelin* songs in a *Reggae Beat* performed by an *Elvis* impersonator.
- *Dread Zeppelin - Heartbreaker (At the End of Lonely Street)*
- *Dread Zeppelin Your Time Is Gonna Come*
Jimmy Page had worked on an intro for Celebration Day, and a young engineer accidentally erased it! When he realized his mistake, he fled the studio and never came back! They replaced it with that droning sound, as there was no time to recreate it.
No other band can mix it up like led zeppelin they set the standard for other bands to try and get close to them so far no one has
If you want to see Zeppelin at there best, watch the live 1973 MSG version of “ Song remains the same / Rain song
Great game! Week call at the end though. I’ve been waiting for Zep 3 by you guys and Celebration Day especially! Love the song! Nice reaction!
Page said Celebration Day was Zeps best song ever. But a sound tech screwed up the recording one night while playing around in the studio.
When he returned the next day, he couldn't find the sound tech anywhere when he discovered what happened.
He said this version is what they recovered...and it wasn't even close to the original quality. 😎
Love those songs. Bonham, one of my heroes.
Forgot how rockin Zep 3 was Thanx guys
Check out traveling riverside blues !!!!!
Excellent suggestion…
They were having huge success with lz 2 and then 3 was made for for more complex sounds and still is my go to fav with Zep ..
JPJ cookin' on the bass.
I cant wait till yall get to Led Zep IV 😝
Nice crossover for this one
Saw them in concert several times 👍😎
Hi guys! I know that this isn't about Zeppelin but I left a link on your Sam Bell interview you did 3 months ago part 2. I wasn't sure if you would see it or not so I'm going to leave it here since this is a more recent reaction. Paul Harvey - A Poor Boy with Guitar was Not Allowed Inside, He's Allowed Now - Rest of the Story. You've got to listen to this, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. It's just audio.
Love LED ❤️💯👏
Lee Ritenour - Night Rhythms, Live In Pori Jazz 1997
You’re correct…they had success and it allowed them to experiment and evolve as musicians and a group. More original music…although they did borrow from Moby Grape’s “Never” for Since I’ve Been Loving You”
Killer bass.
This is Celebration Day, but Friends is a different song altogether. It's a great song.
JPJ is one of the best bass players that ever lived
Gentlemen, allow me to introduce you both to The Moody Blues. The following link is to their multi-album compilation called "This Is The Moody Blues", where it starts with the song "Question" ... ua-cam.com/video/-3Rjs-aKNGE/v-deo.html
Fact is, The Moody Blues played a very large part of our musical lives back in the day, just as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Renaissance, Yes, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Deep Purple, Grand Funk Railroad, Humble Pie, Cactus, etc., did.
I catch sh&t from my friends b/c I like the odd zep albums best (ie: III & Presence)...I think, if you look at what was going on in that time frame...this lp was Zep's answer to what was coming out at the time (CSNY, Grateful dead getting countrified, rise of the singer songwriter genre etc...) in THAT context it makes sense...I often wonder how amazing Zep's studio albums would've been if they weren't always recording n the fly, instead of going and spending the time at like say Abbey Road studios...
Great song! I know you are both big fans of Steely Dan and you are trying to listen to their work in sequence, however, I think you will have even greater respect for them (if that’s even possible), by jumping ahead to their 2000 Grammy Award winning album Two against Nature. Check out first West of Hollywood. It will blow your mind!
Imo zepp has all different sounds but you always know it's them from the first beat. Great album thanks
Was listening to some Deep Purple ( I need love ) off the Come taste the band album, and thought of you guys. Think you would like it a lot!
We will check that out
I been enjoyed your videos, Great reaction, you guys should consider Marshall Tucker Band Great Southern Rock
I love the post game show 😂😎
Nice 💖👍
Thanks!
Ever heard of Big Mama Thornton?
Yes indeed
Oh yeah, I always thought that JPJ's bass playing on this sounds like wigglin rubberband with a fuzz box on it. I did this song in a cover band and had really concentrate to come in right as the guitar and voice are kind of at odds with each other. LZ were some tricky bastards....
Nice drop off
You need to try Robert Plant and Jimmy Paige's album No Quarter for a slightly different take on Led Zep classics
ok Airplay Beats here's a fun fact for you did you know Michael McDonald sang Back Up Vocals for Steely Dan
By this time think they were trying to see where they could take it
I would love to see you react to victim or change, early judas priest
Jimmy Page on the guitar
JPJ was a little buried in this song. But there are some hot bass playing licks put in.
She wrote most of the songs that Janis Joplin made famous
Stop everything you're doing and listen to "Hi Ren". You will encounter it eventually, but it's having a moment right now.
Who you guys taking tonight?
Chiefs. Who you got?
@Airplay Beats no dog in the fight I'll be pulling for the eagles Jalen Hertz though tonight
Since you have done a lot of Led Zeppelin, you owe it to yourselves to watch Led Zeppelin's Kashmir 'Live'! The studio version is good but the 'Live' version is so much more intense! ua-cam.com/video/PD-MdiUm1_Y/v-deo.html. My impression of playing these 'reactions' is a copyright rule that makes it a UA-cam policy to pause the music a few times. If you play/watch this, the least amount of pause's would be recommended to really get the full effect of this live version.
Don't 4GET ABOUT JAMES BROWN!!! Songs like.....Oh Baby Don't You Weep......Out Of Sight....Papa's Got A Brand New Bag.....I Don't Want Nobody To Give Me Nothin'....There was A Time....Popcorn....Mother Popcorn.....Ain't It Funky...Sex Machine.....Funky Drummer..... Escape-Izm......Pass The Peas....Gimmie Some More.....You Can Have Watergate....Hot Pants... Blues and Pants....Ants In My Pants....King Heroin....Greedy Man.....There It Is....The Big PayBack....Forever Suffering....Take Some Leave Some....Mind Power.....Same Beat.. All For One....Super Bad Super Slick....Body Heat.....Get Up Offa Thing.....and much much more! Check out the T.A.M.I. Show 1964....then find James Brown footage in the 60's and the 70's....stay out of the 80's....and Please don't review Mr. Brown when he was HIGH with the yellow glasses....As a people we owe Mr. Brown that much.....He's the MOST SAMPLED PERSON IN MUSIC HISTORY! No James Brown No HIP HOP...Trust and Believe! Aight 1
We know all about James.

I enjoy what yall Brotha's are doing. Can we give tha GodFatha Of Soul some? I Just wanna see and hear what yall think? Thank you...Aight 1
Do you know the group "Kraftwerk" ?
Haven’t heard of them. Send over some songs
@@AirplayBeats ua-cam.com/video/XMVokT5e0zs/v-deo.html
This group was the first to use electronic Instruments only and have been sampled throughout their history. Africa Bambaataa, early breakbeats etc.
Imagine listening to this in '77 must have been like "okay... this is kind of freaky"
A bit of their folk roots creep in at times But later albums they do move away from stealing old blues songs , Houses of the holy Physical gafitti ....but its here and there.
I beg you to please not disregard female artists. If you do (and I will blame that on your probably male dominant audience) you are training your ears to disregard their special aesthetic later. You brain may be ruined, like some other reactors who discount the women of rock. How about Joni Mitchell's song "Help Me". Led Zeppelin''s Robert Plant heard about "a lovely woman out there with flowers in her hair and plenty of love to give", and some say that's Joni Mitchell (in the lovely, softer Zepelin song, "Going to California"). And Graham Nash, of Crosby Stills and Nash moved in with Joni and sang a hit song about a day with Joni, when they lived together. Then there is Carly Simon, and her songs like "That's the Way I've Always Heard it Should Be
Funny thing...this was probably my least favorite song from the first three Zep albums but if it came out today it would be considered genius.
Zepplin 3 sounds so different because it was engineered by the same guys who did Toimmy James and the Shondells. I met one of them, Andy Johns, at a place I worked in the early 90s. It was actually and embarrasing meeting because I was asking him questions about how he they got such a great sound and he started talking about the placement of the bass amps and the way they miked Bonhams drums etc... then I asked how they got the great bass sound on Heartbreaker.... and that's he relized I was talking about Zepplin 2. I also realized my mistake and tried to fix my error by asking some polite quetions about 3. But the truth is I always hated the production of 3. GREAT songs.... lousy recording imo. JPJ's bass has no bottom. Bonham's drums have no kick. Pages guitar is thin on most of the tracks. It works on Immigrant Song and Since I Been Loving You but Celebration Day needed bigger guitar as did Out On The Tiles. Where I think Zepplin 3 shines is in the production on the acoustic based tracks, Friends, Bron-Y-Aur Stomp, Tangerine etc... Pages acoustic work is really crisp and clear on that album. Again, not dissing the songs, just the production. Still one of my favorite Zepplin albums.
