No surprise, you love Roberts hair, with that great hair you’ve got rocking too! I was privileged to be at this show July 29, 1973 when I was 15 years old… Yes, an iconic live performance that gives you the blues side of the mighty Led Zeppelin! They cover SO MANY genres and styles. Hold on tight, there’s a lot more to come! 😊

Jimmy Page is the greatest guitar player in history! No one ever mixed modes and scales to create emotion with a guitar the way he does.

I'm 60 years old and Led Zeppelin is the sound track to my life. To see a young person, loving them at first listen is such a great feeling for me and that I wasn't wrong.

Knew you'd like this live performance Maddy. Who wouldn't?!? "Back-door man" IS "dirty" 😏, BUT the old-school blues def means a lover on the side... "I open my front door and hear my back door slam," as in I leave thru the front door to go to work (from 7-11 every night) and hear that other dude going in thru the back door.

That was one of the Greatest concerts ever! WOW....What a performance! The GOATS😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Great Reaction! The cameraman "he's trying to do something" haha looks like it worked!! This is the stuff we were listening to driving to high school in our cars back in my days! Enjoy more Zeppelin, there's plenty more!

Jimmy Page guitar playing is wired to another planet, out of this world ☆☆☆☆☆

The studio version is well worth hearing. Robert Plant himself considers it his best performance. It's sublime. Also, Led Zeppelin were, are and WILL ALWAYS BE the ultimate rock band.

living through the music of the late 50's to the mid 80's was an earth shattering experience.... NO AUTO TUNERS, NO FAKE MUSIC JUST RAW TALENT... it will NEVER be MATCHED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This song, and "In My Time of Dying", are my two favorite LZ songs, but you rarely heard them, even in the 70's because they weren't considered commercial enough for radio. You might be surprised that back in the late 1960s and early 70's songs like this were only played on "underground" FM stations or college stations after midnight. When I was an undergrad I'd schedule afternoon classes so I could stay up until 3 or 4:00 AM and listen to all the tracks that weren't being played during the day. It was an incredible time for rock music with talent seemingly coming out of nowhere every day.. I discovered LZ completely by accident when I happened to be at the record store when the clerk was unboxing their first album. I loved their name and the cover art with the Hindenburg and bought it without knowing who they were. When I put it on the turn table I was blown away and told everyone I knew they had to hear these guys. Not long afterwards the FM stations got wind of them and started playing their more mainstream songs. As FM started growing their music got a lot more airplay and became popular; the rest is history. As you heard, they've always been inspired by blues classics and you can hear that in much of their music. So while everybody heard "Stairway to Heaven" played over and over again, some of their best music is still unknown to most people. You just discovered a gem so keep digging, there's more out there!

Definitely the studio version is important to check out. From their 3rd album Led Zeppelin lll which was mostly acoustic surprisingly but this song "Since I've Been Loving You" captured the essence of the Blues genre.

Those days were the best days of my life! This is all my friends and I grew up listening to, and to see you and other generations watching it some 50-plus years later brings some deep emotions out from within me... WE never knew it then, but we were part of a time that once was, but sad to say will never be again..

There will never be another ZOSO, This is a one of a kind....They are rock gods they were part of my youth.they changed my life and i'm so glad I was part of that.. The mighty LedZep🤘

One thing you have to consider... back then... Most people NEVER knew what artists looked like.. their 1st exposure to an artist was typically via radio. It was only until they got an album that they'd actually see the artist picture. Back then there was only print media... no internet, no video, nothing digital. Heck TV only had 3 channels (ABC, CBS, NBC) and the only way music got on TV was something really really late at night like Don Kirshners Rock Concert... and Zep was WAY too huge for that. So the only way to see a band was to go to the gig. The only way most folks saw their favorite artists was via music magazines like Rolling Stone, Creem, Hit Parader, Kerrang!, and others. I knew a lot of girls who never went to a show.. but had their walls COVERED in posters of their favorite artists. Many of those girls had the same poster of Robert Plant on their wall and they all drooled over it... he was a Nordic god to them.

Thanks! I first heard this song when I was around your age, and so were these rock legends. It’s thrilling to see someone like you enjoying this song a lifetime after we first heard it.

For Led Zeppelin in the 70's the world was their oyster.

hey gorgeous this is 1973 when life was much easier and no bs for sure. yes camera angles were there to drive the hippy chics wild.

🔶️🔶️🔶️☠️🔶️🔶️☠️☠️🔶️🔶️🔶️ .. looks like you are becoming a Led Zeppelin fan Maddy !! That is just fine with me , an 39,670 others. Starting my day with some Zeppelin shredding is awwwwllllllll goooooooooodddd !! 🎼🎼🎼🎼🎸🎸🦊🤍🦊🎸🎸🎼🎼🎼🎼

Ooohhhhh Robert❤❤❤❤

On top of everything else JPJ is playing the bass part with his feet while the hands hit the Fender Rhodes piano. Awesome

Dazed and confused , a live version! Absolutely amazing 🤩 there are no words to describe how good it is , it’s long but we’ll worth a listen 👍😉😀

So glad I got to see them Live. Saturday May 28, 1977.

Madison Square Gardens NY 1973, probably the finest version of this song ever recorded. Zeppelin tried to make every concert unique, I think you understand what you just watched Maddy. One of a kind band, iconic in every way, hit after hit, I wonder if you ever heard Physical Graffiti, which was one of their best double records. Love that you respect the sheer talent this band had, no auto tune, just four men all the very best at what they do.

Lmao. Robert is a show man in more ways than one. Peace ✌️

I was at this concert. The best ever by far.

Yep. Our era grew up listening to Zeppelin. They were the top band of that time. It's great to see people discovering them all these years later.

Great reaction - I just stumbled upon your channel. They just laid it all out there on the stage. Many of the critics shot down their albums and gave them bad reviews. Despite all the negative critics Led Zeppelin outsold The Rolling Stones, The Who and even Elvis Presley. Their concert tickets outsold Elvis and he requested to meet them. They all met and had a good time chatting. Led Zeppelin ruled the 1970s and never won a Grammy Award -- LOL. Two of their album cover were nominated for Grammys -- and none of their songs or music were - LOL. Check out Achilles' Last Stand from Knebworth Aug 4th, 1979 live concert video for that song. That would be six years after this performance you just watched. 220,000 people were watching them on that night at Knebworth.

I love this live version, but I would recommend listening to the studio version on Led Zeppelin III. My favorite track on that album. The guitar intro and solos are incredible and the vocals are out of this world, especially for a studio recording. That's my 2 cents. Thanks for this!

The sound of that guitar could make an angel cry

Three years prior to this mammoth and hugely successful 1973 tour, their third album was released. It was 1970. Robert was at the peak of his vocal powers that year - and ‘71 as well. I highly recommend looking up and reacting to the studio version of this song. His voice could kill any insect in the room. There was nowhere to hide from it!

YOU ARE GORGEOUS !!!!! and YES, ZEPPELIN IS GREATEST ROCK BAND OF ALL TIME .... SELLING OVER 350M albums and more with only 8 studio Albums ! Their live material is never the same each night.... 3 hour shows and extremely improvisational .... all 4 musicians are top notch !

and, down the rabbit hole you go!! so proud of you darlin!! 🙂i learned to play both the drums as well as guitar from this album, also from Rush!

Page opens with a "REAL" solo, then silence, Plant kicks in with his magnificent primal screams, silence, and Bonzo in his brilliance does a jazzy sound to pull them both together. THAT was the magic of the Mighty Zep. Bonzo could pound out the heavies with his drums, or lite it down when the mood called for it, pure genuis. Opps, should try spelling genius correctly.

I love these live versions. Particularly at the beginning Page solo, as beautiful as u r Maddy, cant take my eyes off of the eye candy of Page on that guitar.

Never stop in the middle of Jimmy's guitar solo

you know i think that show was performed 3 nights in a row at MSG so there may be 3 versions of each song floating around

can you imagine the vocal expense just on this song? and doing 2 hours of this? i was fortunate to see them on this tour. you can't even imagine 2hrs of this.

Welcome to the greatest rock performers of all time! Any woman would be blind not to notice the left dressing frontman. Zeppelin took the world by storm. To this day, none can rival what they accomplished. Who knows what they would have done, had Bonzo not carked it. A sad day, to be sure.

They are just phenomenal

This might be their best performance, in my opinion. There are songs I like better, but the creativity on display here is staggering. Great reaction, Maddy!

Incredible song and the live performance is amazing. Thanks for making my day Maddy!🎉

Throughout history, moments come along causing fundamental shifts in the world that permanently change the way we feel and play music. Rember that you are looking at four British lads playing the blues which has always been deeply rooted in the American South.,

Maddy, You young lady have selected a killer song by rock giant Led Zeppelin. It is bluesy and darn good!!!!... Just wait until Robert's vocals start! Not bad for four skinny white guys from England!!!! Jimmy Page, the guitar man has been in the music business since the 1950's. No wonder he is SO damn good!!!! Each one of them is a master of their craft!!! I never saw Zeppelin. Back in the 1980's I did see Robert Plant perform as a solo artist. The man is one hell of a singer!!!!!! I must ask, Maddy did you fall in love just now??? YES they are stars........ Maddy you are good looking right now. You are missing nothing in the hair department. Take care!!!!!!! Stay safe!..................

I love all their albums. I'm partial to Physical Graffiti. I used to break up my weed in the crease.

Yes, the cameraman is at that angle because he IS trying to do something…he’s trying to make the band look larger than life. At that angle it distorts their image and they look taller. Led Zep are known to be giants in their field. The top of the mountain; the top of the stairway to Heaven. God bless and Rock on!

Thank you Maddy! Zeppelin is the best 😎

I believe all the cameramen were high while filming these shows. The original intent was to film the shows and put out a live concert video, but the filming got messed up. That's why, when you watch the whole DVD/Blu Ray, Led Zep has fantasy sequences during some of the songs. Also, you will notice that many of the camera shots are not what is really being played at the time.

As a TV producer, videographer and editor for more than 25 years, the camera position is usually designated by the venue. Floor level, as to not impede concert-goers view, is very common. Obviously there are probably 3-5 cameras of which some are set up out of view on tripods and often can get the more steady shots and closeups. Hit me up for more video tips. LOL

Back door man is an old Blues phrase dating back to the 20's and 30's, meaning a lover coming in through the back door as the husband leaves through the front. Led Zeppelin is primarily a Blues band although they touch on all genres.

Led Zeppelin Wright songs and all genres but they are known for their blues songs they are the king of the Blues producing writing and recording.. check out You Shook Me the studio version.. Or a song called I can't quit you babe...

And don't forget Robert is only 24 here with a ton ton of SWAG .....

Like I said Maddy. Led Zeppelin is the best and most versatile band ever. The LZ rabbit hole goes very deep.

You had me at, "I think I will wear lipstick today."

This VIdeo was taken for their LIVE MOVIE "The Song Remains the Same." As A Movie. Madison Square Garden, 1973, three Nights film taken. Some of the Scenes were lost and the guitar parts had to be Reworked later in a studio. "Back Door Man", is a guy cheating, running out the BACKDOOR, after the Umm FACT...Not Backdoor as people know it today.

Thank you for the reaction-❣ I thought maybe you'd appreciate it. ☺ looking forward to more LZ ☮

I saw this in the cinema when the film first came out in 1976 at 12 years old and it floored me back then. You're so lucky to be able to hear it for the first time!

If you really want to hear one of their best song try the “Lemon Song”. The Bass line is a out of this world.

Can't go wrong with a bit of Zep, Maddy. You're right, this live performance oozes energy. The opening solo has a deliberate strong resemblance of the middle eight solo on the Led Zep III album. It works brilliant as an introduction, smashes you in the mouth from the get go. It is such a bluesy song. This is absolutely the right one to react to and I enjoyed your views on it. When you get a mo, I'd strongly recommend listening to the studio original, not as a trade off/compare which is best, simply because I must have listened to it a thousand times, it is truly iconic!

That’s why they’re the greatest band ever

@Maddy, Thank you so much for all your Reactions. I enjoy these videos so much more when I watch them with you! You are a wonderful Soul!

studio versionyeah his vocals are on a whole other level on the studio version if you can even begin to imagine that

Plant was asked in an interview about any advice he would give cover bands imitating him nowadays......he said "dress to the right"LOL (his pants were almost painted on) 🤣

I never got the chance to see them live ,I tried but tickets sold out too fast and I did not have drivers license, too young and depended on friends for these things .. I was planning on seeing them when they were going to tour in the 1980s but drummer John Bonham died and they could not make it without him and LZ went busted up..I did see this concert film in a movie theater though and it seemed almost real anyways .I wish it could be re released again in the theaters ..check out Song Remains the Same and The Rain Song . and they should be heard together

Bluesy rock with a hint of jazz. For sure one of my all time favorite Zep songs.

Robert Plant, the lead singer was only 21 years old in this video.

one of my all time favorite performances in general ever..so damn good! Changed my whole perception of the group

Simply the GOATS

Such a killer record! Love it.

Back then we knew bands from the radio and sometimes got to go a to concert to actually see them. Every popular band was so recognizable and unique in their sound that we knew who the band was within the first two measures of music, even if the song was a new release. MTV changed this to some extent as how a band looked on TV became what people associated with the music, and to a great extent rather than a unique sound they may have had.

Playing an introduction to a blues is NOT “crazy shredding”. It hard hitting intelligent, emotional musicianship. Blues is a language. A musical language. Same with JAZZ.

I can tell just by your head rithm that you can feel the music as it is

Thanks for checking out more LED Zeppelin ❤❤

His lady has a lover who runs out the back when he hears the front door open. Old Blues term Back Door Man

I was at this show in the garden and there were plenty of cameras filming. You're right they chose that angle to put in the movie.

All the questions in life can be answered by listening to Led Zeppelin.

It’s not dirty. Just good ol’ lovin’.

Your correct about the camera angle and on a big theatre screen well let's just say the boyfriends benefited. 😊 Brilliant band.🙏🍁

Nice reaction, Beautiful

"Back door man" is not what some may think. Nothing really to do with "rear" entry...the phrase refers to the lover, someone who sneaks in and leaves through the back door. There's the line in the song that explains it... "open my front door, hear my back door slam" in other words, he comes home from a hard days work and as he opens his front door and he hears his back door slam as the wife or girlfriend's lover exits hastily. Remember this is 1973 so terms were a bit different then

Thanks!

Wait till you hear Page do his solo on the studio version !

I’ve been working from 7-11 777 to 11. Funny I’ve listened to Led Zeppelin for 45 years and never heard Jimmy referred to as Jim. Very refreshing.

Back in the day, a "backdoor man" was the guy your gal was seeing when you're at work. "I opened my front door, heard my back door slam". He was running out the back door when they heard you drive up.

"do something..." 🔥Danger Will Robinson! 😬😁

❤like you,great review,pure Rock.

The live version of this song on their How The West Was Won CD is also fablulous!

Back in the blues days a backdoor man was a guy that messed around with another guy's woman. When he got home from work the guy would sneak out the "back door". But I like where your head is. Lol

When asked recently if Robert had any advice for a frontman of a Zeppelin tribute band.........He said "Tell him to dress it to the right". Referring to best angle to put some stuffing in the jeans. ( Mick Jagger had their management insist on a cucumber for a string of shows for the Stones. )

Backdoor man had a different meaning break then. It meant as your hubby was going out the front door your lover was coming in the backdoor.

2 words. Thank you Maddy. More Zep please

Just a fun fact after the band seen how this was shot ( camera angles) they went to court to try to stop it's release

Percy paid the cameraman a few extra quid. Nah, not really. If I remember right, they made the film intending it to be seen as if you were in the front row. So, that's the view, like it or ummm, lump it. (Percy is Robert Plant's nickname).

The Song Remains the Same then The Rain song listen together from the same show... Is a common reaction.. hope you get to that ! Nice reaction... ; )

The blues of the 1950s was a major influence on this band and other 60s and 70s bands. They reimagined the blues with a unique rock influence.

I love the way u say "swining, swinging"

Hope you review the rest of this concert . Try Whole Lotta Love next !

The Goat knew how to make great live music vidoes raw and powerful!

youve got to hear the studio version a must hear

I grew up to these guys. It's been said Jimmy Page is the most difficult guitarist to duplicate. Like you said...unpredictable. That was just one of the examples of why they are the greatest rock band band to ever grace the stage.

I love Maddy ❤️
