Heartbreaker is a milestone track early in their career....in a way it's one of the critical tracks in the establishment of heavy metal. Eddie Van Halen's fretboard picking style was inspired by Heartbreaker. The next track on the album, Ramble On, is a John Paul Jones bassline clinic.

Hey guys. Glad you're reacting to this one. I don't think John Paul Jones gets enough credit for his contributions to the Led Zeppelin sound. Just listen to how his bass part drives this song. Keep listening, I'm enjoying your reactions as always. Peace.

Their first 2 albums shook the world, and rock would never be the same...

Led Zeppelin 2 is the greatest hard rock album ever produced.Period.

Someone said John Paul Jones is the secret sauce!!!! So true

My older brother went off to War in 1970 and left all of his albums with me. I was 12, and I loved the music on the radio, Motown, and top 40, but I had never listened to many albums, except all of the Beatles. I was alone one weekend evening, and put this on and turned the volume up full, and I experienced my first manic frenzy. I kept lifting the needle and returning it to the beginning of the album (Heartbreaker is the first song on side two). I was hallucinating from sheer giddiness and head thrashing.

On of the world's perfect albums. Every second of Led Zeppelin II is amazing. Front to back, just perfect.

If you want to hear more of their bluesy moments (and haven’t already checked these out), you need to listen to “In My Time of Dying” and “When the Levee Breaks.”

77 Cap Centre.....1st tickets to ever hit $20 was a night with the Heros of my world. Hard to explain but the rock world was Led Zepplin, then everyone else. Every rock act is rated by the Zepplin Scale. At least by teens of the 70s. We are the best judges of hard Rock on the planet. We had the best. So lucky.

Headbangers, welcome to our generation..... It still gets me 2023!

Led Zeppelin- The Best Band Ever !! In my humble opinion..

Led Zeppelin II is imho may be the best rock album ever.

Thanks for playing these two together. After 50 years of hearing it this way & some reactors cut it up....oh man. Love seeing today's youth enjoying the music of my youth. Rock on!

When he broke into the blues, that' part is called the "bridge". Love that you played these 2 gems together. JPJ rocked

The two songs don't exist without one another, and once you know the album, Ramble On flows in perfectly after Living Loving. Keep up the great work, gentlemen!

He says “Start it over, shit! I love you guys!!

Their first 2 albums had a shattering effect on my generation and this was one of the heaviest riffs from those albums that were full of them. You are on a great path and will broaden your musical horizons. Welcome to more of the best music ever and enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶

JPJ’s bass is so effin hard in this song! Nasty

That nasty crunchy bass line is just amazing.

Guys I’m so happy to see that you really get the mighty led zeppelin 👏
