John Paul Jones should win an award just for this bass line. Talk about an acrobatic endeavor.

The chance meeting of these four individual talents is nothing short of a miracle. Chemistry like this is as rare as anything I can imagine.

This is my favorite Bass song ever. And i been listening since late 60's

Rumor has it, JPJ did this in just one take.

The magick of Led Zeppelin is you can listen to all the musicians together or pick one out and just listen to that one part. Additionally, producer Page knew how to mix so one could focus on each instrument separately if one so desired.

Looking at the "big picture," LZ II is the album that put LZ at the top as the biggest, loudest, and most powerful band in the world. When it was released, it replaced the Beatles' Abbey Road (their final recording) as the number 1 album in the world, symbolic of Zep replacing the Beatles as the band at the top. This album also was the blueprint for 1970's rock, and everything that followed.

Were ready to Ramble On.

Zeppelin blues. Nothing like it.

Dude, first time i comment here. I'm a 67 year old man who saw Zeppelin on this same tour in Hartford Connecticut in 73. Robert Plant...the talk was that if you brought your girl friend to a Zeppelin concert you were sure to "get a little" that night. All the girls wanted to do him and the dudes wanted to be him. Zeppelin was a very sexual band and the lyrics gave the censers a challenge. The Lemon song is about this girl who squeezed him 2 ways,first squeezed him for money but he had a hard,(no pun intended) time leaving because she was soooo good at squeezing his lemon. The juice running down his leg is not for making lemon aid !! The Lemon Song is tame compared to another song they did called, "Custard Pie." P.S. you may want to have your girl friend close by or a box of Kleenex.

That Bass. Ohh Yeh!!

Be sure when you get to Heartbreaker /Livin Lovin Maid they are meant to listen as one song

I'm gonna leave my "children" down on this killing floor, lol.

Please watch How Many More Times live from Albert Hall. It’s a great blues medley that includes part of the Lemon Song!

Blues and sex! Also love the bass line. "Killing Floor" is an old Howlin' Wolf song.

Sooooo Naughty!! 😂😎✌️👍 I love how Bonzo comes in with the thunder! How good is JPJ! 👏👏👏👏👏 that bass line is so dirty!!

I don't know if you have noticed that most of zeppelins songs are love songs weather it be happy or tragic but not all are.....love how you are going through zeppelin one album at a time great approach cant say you missed one this way like how you analyze their music spot on in most cases good job sad to say I remember when all this stuff was new great then and still great now

Just listen to JPJ kill it on the bass!

I love watching video reactions of young people getting into Led Zeppelin for the first time. Watching their reaction to Zep for the first time is great, but watching their reaction to The Lemon Song is priceless. For all their fame with the classics of Whole Lotta Love and Kashmir and Black Dog and the like that are on the radio constantly to this day, the Lemon Song is one of their absolute rawest, most direct and pure jams. If you can ever get a really nice stereo and turntable, this album is a must have on the remastered 180g vinyl. You sit in your living room and it literally feels like John Paul Jones is not only playing right in front of you, but it's as if his Acoustic 361 bass cabinet is right in front of your face as he jams...... the cabinet he used on this track was very similar to this if not exactly what he used: reverb.com/item/5213023-vintage-acoustic-361-powered-bass-amp-amplifier-cabinet-1-x-18-cab-only He used a Fender Jazz Bass with flat wound strings. Of course, all that gear means nothing if you can't play. John Paul Jones could probably make a cardboard box and fishing line for strings sound fantastic.

I've had the 4th album since forever. At age 12 I came across the song Kashmir in a movie and had to have all of their discography! I listened to all of their albums for the first time on my walkman in bed at night. THIS song made we want to play bass. Although, months later I found my uncles old guitar in his closet so I became a guitarist instead. I did finally buy a bass about 10 years later. Check out Jimmy Pages previous band the Yardbirds as well as his studio session work in the 60s! Some real gems in there.

Love your reactions

Interesting review. I never thought about it that way. Yeah, that bass is sublime!

It's the blues baby boy

Yes you’re back !

When you get the chance listen to their whole performance 1969 denmark radio, one of their first and 30mins long

I 1st heard this song 42 yrs ago

Just discovered your content and I'm loving it. Great reactions, you deserve more subscribers.

The silent assassin killing it on the base.

Great reaction pal

I never thought about the lost time thing!

I luv that you love this song so much😻 I believe there was some issue abt this song when 2nd album released over the "squeeze my lemon" not much air play etc 🥴 next up a beautiful song FYI never try to figure out where Zep is going!

Great to see you back dude! To be honest, “lemon song” probably wouldn’t be in my top 30 favorite Zep songs, but that’s just me. I don’t dislike it, it just never grabbed me in that deep, visceral way. The next track, “thank you” is acoustic, and a ballad. It’s also the first song that Robert Plant wrote the lyrics for. I think you will enjoy it.

I'm pleased to see you will proceed in Chronological order with Album Tracks by Led Z. The world has enough access to random shuffle plays. Be true to their Artisty as a listener by enjoying the flow as it was intended to be! Cheers!✌🍁✌

This is an old blues song with a Zeppelin spin.......they do a lot of that!

This is the Traveling Riverside Blues, first recorded by Robert Johnson.

My friend are you ok? We all enjoy your reactions. PLEASE COME BACK

Great reaction! JPJ the silent assassin lays down the groove like no other!!!

You gotta do IN MY TIME OF DYING LIVE

LZ had been playing this song in some version since the beginning. Here is a live performance from 1969 - the mix is kinda weird with the vocals buried a little but the BASS LINE is killer; at about 3:55 the visual goes to some other performance but the audio continues correctly. Hope you enjoy!! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aMxmh5d1v62dqZs.html

Robert Plant and Freddie Mercury are the 2 best front men in rock n roll history IMO

This was my first Led Zeppelin album (cassette). Played it until the tape was raw..

To think this LP was recorded in 1969 and people are still think this song is great

No one comes close to Zeppelin doing the Blues,except The Stones and Stevie Ray Vaughn.

Led Zeppelin was always MUCH MORE than "Stairway."

......and also "GALLOWS POLE" also by LED ZEP. TAKE CARE....

Nice work dude, you've done so much Zeppelin you should now take a dive into Black Sabbath, Deep Purple , Pink Floyd and Judas Priest.

Please react to Santana!

React to Moby Dick live! Give John Bohnam some love!

It’s a cover of a old blues song called killing floor.

It is easy to take Jimmy for granted...

If I could suggest one song to you it would be the criminally underrated "HEY HEY WHAT CAN I DO". THANKS! Peace.

Watch/Listen to Rag n Bone Man Die Easy!!!!!!! Compare it to Led Zep In my time of dying!

I find that sometimes reactors get too deep into the lyrics with Led Zeppelin’s music. The music isn’t really about the lyrics. The lyrics are more incidental to the music than anything else. My advice would be to allow them to take you on their musical journey and allow your mind to interpret the lyrics however you want. Robert Plant’s voice and emotion are just another masterful instrument in the piece. Enjoy it! 🙂 thank you for your wonderful reaction. New subscriber🙋‍♀️

'Til the juice runs down..? Wait, that's not how you make lemonade...

Dude, The Lemon Song? He is also saying a certain part of his body that looks like lemons is being squeezed. Franks and Beans. The Beans part. LOL. "The way you squeeze my Lemon, I'm gonna fall right out of bed." If you think a phrase in a Zeppelin song has sexual meaning then go with your first instinct.

Should be called The Bass Song.

This ones is all JPJ...

watching you backwords. This should be fun!

what do you know about jam sessions...no offense...you a musician?

I think you miss out on the talent of John Bonham. It’s sad that you don’t get it 😢
