" you can tell that they're better than the rest". Warms my heart ✌🏻

Robert was all of 20 when he belted out these nasty, nasty blues vocals. Kinda hard to comprehend really. Also, that's John Paul Jones, the bass player, just killin' that organ riff. He is an amazing multi-instrumentalist who brought a whole other level of musicianship to LZ.

Plant is probably one of the best HARMONICA Players ever. We all know he is THE GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME. ZEPPELIN FOREVER!!!☮🥁👍🍀

"You Shook Me" was first recorded by Muddy Waters in 1962. Willie Dixon wrote the lyrics and Earl Hooker the music (to the extent it can be said that anybody wrote the twelve bar blues). Led Zeppelin slowed it down and souped it up with the heavy psychedelic over-driven guitar, the church organ passages, Robert Plant's killer blues harmonica along with his wails. The song segues directly into "Dazed and Confused" on the album, so the final cut comes across as slightly less abrupt when listening to the album straight through.

That is Robert on the harmonica. These guys all love the blues and it shows all through their work.

Amazing how those Brits admired American blues so much. A tribute and beyond.

🔥🎶🎶 THATS DEFINITELY ROBERTS VOICE‼️ ROBERT AND JIMMY’S CALL AND RESPONSE GAME IS VICIOUS🎤🎸

You boys are top level focused. The points you speak of takes some people 3.4, maybe 12 times listening to pick up intricacies that you seem to capture on a one time listen. I’m enjoying your reactions more than you know.

The coolest triple solo ever. Keyboards, harmonica and guitar...and they all have the same cadence. 😎

I love it when Robert plays harmonica. Robert makes my knees weak(that’s the cleanest way I can put it😝) Led Zeppelin still blows my mind all these decades later!🥰

Yep, Robert Plant is their harmonica player. This album is great and this is one of my favorite tracks on it. Clearly, Zeppelin is in their own league. Thanks for a great reaction. Edit: Was hoping you'd react to studio version of Babe I'm Gonna Leave You so you could hear the differences between it and that early 1969 performance. Maybe another time?

Plant does the harmonica😊 I so appreciate you both for playing THE best band EVER🎉

Willie Dixon wrote this tune. Led Zeppelin helped us appreciate the American blues and the talented musicians who first created it. Love your reactions and appreciation of the music.

Great musicians, all 4 members were the best in their field! Jimmy and John Paul very technical in nature by their previous sesson work, Robert and John Bonham were wild men from the Midlands in England, tour -de-force...

The early Led Zeppelin from 1969 and 70, was so raw and gritty. They played a lot of Blues on their first two albums. I think it was their best music. Thanks guys I really enjoy your channel.

best band ever, they had NO weak links, they were all top 3 ever at what they did and they had unmatched chemistry too

You don't even have to know ANYTHING AT ALL about music to understand that Led Zeppelin is something that stands in their own place.....with nobody else! Words cannot convey how happy I am they left us with their records for all of eternity. The tribute that Heart vocaled at the Kennedy Center was fully justified as it was a spectacle to behold. The look on John, Robert, and Jimi's face during the tribute......... PRICELESS! Thanks for the reaction guys, I get a kick out of your new-found appreciation for LZ.

This is an old blues tune that's been covered lots of times, composed by J.B. Lenoir and well-known blues artist Willie Dixon. As noted by others, John Paul Jones handled bass and organ, lead singer Robert Plant also played harmonica, Jimmy Page on guitars and using a cello bow for those long slides on the verse, and finally, last but far from least, Bonzo on drums and totally killing it as usual.

That is a great example on why Led Zeppelin are the GOATs

A slow , slightly sleazy , bluesy vibe ! Iconic cover of this song . I love the 3 solos on this , organ , harmonica and then guitar . I have to say when Jimmy comes in for his solo .. he blows the roof off …

Every track on this album is a banger! Probably the best debut album ever!

I love watching young people's reaction to music I grew up listening to. The younger generation's have computer, cell phones, etc. But I had the Rolling Stones, Led Zepp, The Animals, The Troggs, THEM, The Who, CSN&Y, Dave Clark Five, Muddy Waters, Buddy Miles, Nilsson and so many more that made a mark on music history but have been forgotten. If you want to hear an awesome drum solo listen to Jump Into the Fire by Nilsson...your ears will be delighted!

It's not even close, best band ever! So in sync!

This is one of my favorite studio songs, it shows a variety of their amazing talents all in one song. The three solos of, keyboard harmonica & guitar, then of course Plant’s amazing vocals & Bonham’s amazing drumming. To think, they were only together about two months, when this album was recorded. From start to finish, recording & Page producing mixing & editing, all in four days & total of 35 hours. They are like four parts of one amazing musician, that’s how in sync they are, & NO others have or will ever come close.

When we were teens in the 70's, this song melted our faces off!! And we had to sneak listening to this, behind our parent's backs!!

They literally Shook the music business as a whole.

Like many British bands, Led Zepplin began with blues influence but moved beyond this later into Folk, Psychedelic, and what we know as Rock. Compare this to "Stairway to Heaven." Glad ya'll are at it. Have a safe Thanksgiving.

You guys are going to love this entire album. Great reaction.

They are absolutely unbelievable!! This was 1969...think about that! Their first album!! And JPJ on that bass and keys!

That’s Robert Plant on lead harmonica. Talk about getting shook! Well, now prepare to be dazed and confused!!

One of the many songs by Zep that introduced this suburban white boy to the blues.

Props to you guys. You are doing Quality Music, unlike most reaction channels.

Since Ive Been Loving You and Stairway To Heaven live MSG 1972. Get on it !!

Most rock bands in the late 60s and early 70s played and were influenced by the blues. The Rolling Stones, Cream, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, and many more.

I appreciate how in tune you r to led zep

My favorite on this album. Yes that's Robert on harmonica. And what a voice. All 4 of them the goat's. Great reaction

I’m so happy you guys are discovering the greats. I discovered them when I was 13. I knew right then they would forever be my favorite. I’m 59 now and my heart and mind haven’t changed their opinions. Absolutely the best.

This song was written by Willie Dixon. He ended up suing Led Zeppelin over this song and won $1,000,000. That is Robert Platt on harmonica. That's John Paul Jones on the keyboards.

I think you asked about John Paul Jones (keyboard, bass) in an earlier video. I'll say now what I said then; he is their secret weapon.

@1:14 "man, you know how many blues songs they've said that in?" LOL, exactly! Great point. I just busted out laughing when I heard you say that because I was thinking the same thing.

In case I don't get a chance to tell you guys, Happy Thanksgiving and please more Zeppelin 🤟

At 4:23 - 5:20 the real blues kicked and you can tell by reaction. That shit is mind blowing and music will never be this epic again.

This song allows all members to show their talents.

This is a blues classic: one of two covers of Willie Dixon tunes on this album. You can hear here just how much the 1960s Brits LOVED the blues...

I miss that excitement I see in the two of you that I would feel when hearing a Zep song that I'd never heard before come on the radio... keep it up, fellas. Can't go wrong with the mighty Zeppelin.

I really LOVE the fact that so many of these reaction videos to classic rock tracks are made by black and brown people. It is, in fact, your music more than ours because it's origins are rooted in the Delta Blues of the early 20th century. During the 70s and 80s black people moved more towards classic soul, disco and the birth of Hip Hop but kind of relegated rock music more to white audiences. It makes me happy to see the sort of rediscovery of your musical heritage even though it was filtered and modified to appeal to a white audience. This is every bit your music. From the Rolling Stones and Elvis to George Thorogood and Stevie Ray Vaughn. We were just the lucky beneficiaries of it. That new bluesman, Kingfish, isn't even 30 but he's already making a real name for himself too.

Giving back to you Led Zeppelin 1969 Black and White “ How Many More Times” live video

seen them live in 1970 Aerodrome in upstate north of albany! What you hear is that good live! the best of the best / killer get flashbacks even after all these years!

Another great American blues remake. "You Shook Me" is a 1962 blues song recorded by Chicago blues artist Muddy Waters. Willie Dixon wrote the lyrics and Earl Hooker provided the instrumental backin

Robert plant's voice is one of a kind the band are enjoying themselves on this song top notch stuff ❤️

This song was written by Willie Dixon (Lyrics) and Earl Hooker (Instrumentation). It was recorded by Muddy Waters in 1962, just six years before this version by Led Zeppelin was recorded. (Wikipedia) (EDIT: I initially wrote "instrumentalization" rather than "instrumentation." I asked Bing Copilot which word could apply to music composition, and while "instrumentalization" is a word (both terms mean something specific in mathematics, for example), Copilot said that when applied to the subject of music composition, "instrumentation" is the correct word.)

Man this song just reset my mood

I have other bands, other songs I like. But like you guys said these are the best four at what they do. How can they not be the best band ever? And your favorite zeppelin song will change so many times as you go thru their albums. My favorite is the last one I heard!

OMG I just discovered your channel and its amazing. Binge watching your stuff for 2 hours now. 😅 Congratulations!

By now, you've probably researched all this or someone has already commented, but in the simplest, watered down terms, regarding the history....Jimmy Page was a sessions musician, playing guitar in studio sessions as young as 15, I believe....and later played in The Yardbirds........he began looking to start his own band in 1968....John Paul Jones had also been a sessions musician and he and Jimmy already knew each other.....then Jimmy started looking for the other members and found a young blues singer Robert Plant singing in London blues clubs........Robert knew a drummer from another band he had run into several times named John Bonham.....and the rest is history! That's the best I can remember it at this time.

Roberts the bird that whistles, Jimmy, John Paul and John are the birds that sing. Facts

Very first song I ever heard I've Led Zeppelin it was at the beach when Robert and Jimmy dual I was flabbergasted

Jeff Beck did this song with Rod Stewart on the album Truth. When asked why his album wasn't as popular as Led Zeppelin's debut, Jeff said something along the lines of "Jimmy had Robert Plant, and I had Rod Stewart." LOL. I love thre 3 solos one after the other.

The magnificent John Paul Jones on keyboard! The magnificent Robert Plant on harmonica! The magnificent Jimmy Page on guitar! The magnificent Jon Bonham on drums!

I love your reactions! I love how u get into the music like I do….. it’s been almost 50 yrs I have been jammin to these GOATS! You guys get it!❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Love it when people start to listen to LZ Their faces were just like mine the first time I heard them Blows you mind RP and JB just 19 when they made this album and only been together 6 months

What I love best, you get it! It’s beautiful music by very young geniuses!!!

The two becomes one magnificent sound.

Jimmy page..there is no other. His spectacular playing plus his masterclass musicianship and studio choreography is without equal

“Them dudes is crazy.” The smile on Che’s face says it all. ❤️

1969 when this song was cut it blew this young drummers mind I was 15 this band was a Monster,, a real life breathing Monster 😳😳

Robert Plant on Harp and vocals; John Paul Jones Bass/Organ/Keyboard, John Bohnam Percussion and Jimmy Page Lead Guitar. A tighter, more electrifyingly soulful Quartet has still not emerged.

I never saw this band intact. I saw Robert Plant solo in the mid 80s. After Zeppelin disbanded. Immigrant Song, Stairway to Heaven and Houses of the Holy. My favorites.

Robert plays the harmonica like a boss!

A lot of people overlook this track because it just sounds like a jam session.

John Paul Jones taking us to Church with that organ solo.

Solo Robert Plant(Zeppelin vocalist) ~ Sea Of Love, Big Log, In The Mood, Heaven Knows, Little By Little, Tall Cool One, Ship Of Fools...!

Keyboard organ is john Paul Jones he was amazing on the ivory as well as the bass

Zeppelin was Voltron!! Perfect analogy! 😄 Loving your channel fellas, good shit!

Fun Fact- Robert Plant was only 19 years old when he sang this. Played the harmonica on it to.

New subscriber to your excellent channel. Happy New Year to all of you. Cheers to 2024. Fantastic reaction to this bluesy funkie Led Zeppelin song peace and love ❤

Not sure if you have already, but if you love this song like I do, you'll love their track "I cant quit you baby".

You know you shook me baby allll night longgggggg ❤such a bluies jam. I’m 58 and Tangerine was my grandpa s fav. His album still blows my mind that Gpa got down to Led and have that album now. The spinner 1 or 2. My brother has all there albums and Jimi Hendrix AC/DC Neil Young BB King Willie Nelson a big collector so I was raised jamming out in the basement playing pool old table 😂or toss the ping pong table on top. Smoke jam Black Sabbath Ozzy etc. Mom n Dad would put their foot up n down when we had to turn down lol or their famous saying “What are you burning down their, Cindy get upstairs “😂😂party over for me

When. I served in the RAF. I bought a tape player and the first 4albums of LZ. I have loved them ever since ,can you hear it come through the left side of the h/phones ,it's a first for me .thanks guys.

Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart recorded a version of this song just before Led Zeppelin recorded theirs. Maybe you heard that.

6:58 THAT guitar 🎸 solo! 🤪😱👹😳😊😉

They only band musicians that can rival each other in the mastery of their craft in my opinion are Zeppellin and Rush, way up there in their level. simply phenomenal. John Paul Jones plays like 100 instruments masterfully and writes music, so did Bonham and played the drums top notch, Robert and his harmonica and lead voice and Jimmy and his Guitar, same for Rush, all fantastic musicians and one that is multifaceted and good at every thing. Regards.

When I become King of the world, it will be illegal to play "You shook me" without following it immediately with "Dazed and Confused".

Robert Plant is playing the harmonica. He and John Bonham were both 20 years old making this record...

I love that you're digging into complete albums, keep it going and the video quality is looking great.

Killer!! VOLTRON comment was all time!

That is Robert Plant on harmonica.

Robert Plant plays all of the harmonica he's incredible on a harmonica. And your buddy is right it's a old blue song that they covered. Willie Dixon wrote the song. Muddy Waters recorded it 1960.

I'm 67. We used to bring the Keg to the party in 75 and have fun listening to this. Among other musicians. Love watching you young guys listening to this stuff

The "harmonica" was actually a blues harp played by Robert Plant.

its an adaption of a Muddy Waters song - lz were very influenced by Delta blues / chicago blues. There is a good live version from 1969 filmed for Beat Club. its very clearly shows the duet that you mentioned. it is a recurring feature between Page and Plant, Page also makes his guitar talk! Try watching I can't quit you babe live at Royal Albert Hall for another good example. regarding recording techniques i would watch a documentary called "it might get loud" which is about guitarists and features Jimmy Page along with the edge from U2 and Jack White from the white stripes. each one tells their back story then they get together and talk and jam. Jimmy page explains everything you want to know about double neck guitars , using a theramin , song writing , playing guitar with violin a bow and recording drums in the stairwell of Hedley Grange which he visits so you can see where it happened- i think you may spontaneously combust when you hear when the Levee Breaks!!! this documentary is broken down into clips for youtube so you can see it as a whole or piecemeal. my favourite bit is Page citing Link Wray : the Rumble, as an early influence and playing the record - the joy he still has in the music is inspirational. I promise you will love this interview.

Robert on that harmonica!!

This led zeppelin group is out of this world best band ever the definition of rock and roll

Nice reaction. I really like your vibe.

Robert played the harmonica on this. Been listening to these guys for 40 years. So, so good!!! ♥

it is possible in a studio for him to play the harmonica on one track and sing on another track. So the harmonica could theoretically bleed in to him singing at times.

I love watching you guys have the same reaction I did when it came out. Makes me happy for you.

Robert and Jimmy love the call and respond. With the guitar and vocal. They utilize it often, especially in their live performances. Check them out, live at MSG. Epic I’ve read that if you did a poll for the ultimate rock super group you’d end up with Vocals-Robert Plant Guitar- Jimi Page Drums-John Bonham Bass- JPJ

The Goats 🎸🎸🎸🎵🎵🎵

I would think you would have to agree, this song is just a balls out strut.
