In certain live songs there was a constant back and forth, call and response, from the guitar to Plant, or the reverse, sometimes reaching levels that seemed to be totally spontaneous and rewriting the book on the dynamics between a vocalist and guitar. They felt 100% confident doing that, which tells you how tight they were. I think Angus Young and Brian Johnson, or Bon, they do that some too, but not to the level of Page and Plant.

I’ve had a few guitars over the years, cowboy chords n tabs ,but I couldn’t play the way you do, just cowboy chords n tabs,20 years I tried n tried, but than i listened to you, well not just you, but I really listened to you, scales and chords, stacking thirds and adding some words, poof, poof, sputter sputter, it started making sense,I revisited this video and others and it is amazing , I got some rhythm and I got some blues, i can almost do this music thing on my own,I do some practice, many thanks paul I definitely owe some to you, seriously, when I first watched this video, my fretboard was a strange wasteland I was scared off, I watched so many of your posts and others just wishing, but from scratch, chord structure, rhythm techniques,song structure and theory, I just need to apply myself, the more theory I learn the more it all makes sense, practice practice and theory and more practice….who knew? This video…call and answer , staying in a box…than same key, up an octave, down an octave, same notes , different orders, chords from the key…what , wait…I’m going to practice some more…thanks for the inspiration…you rock!

Thanks, Paul, for this GREAT video! This hits on one of music's fundamental truths -- that most good music is based on human speech. We usually play and hear music in phrases, and the reason that works is that it mirrors human breathing. Speech is driven by the breath. It's a necessity for singers and most players of wind instruments -- trumpets, flutes, saxophones, bassoons, oboes, and kazoos -- to divide musical sequences of notes into discrete phrases because the player must pause briefly to inhale between the exhalations that drive phrases. Even if you're playing a guitar piano, organ, or bagpipes, where breathing can be done independently of note-playing, it still makes sense to the brains of most listeners to hear music as a succession of phrases rather than as an unbroken stream of notes. The call-and-response pattern makes music more conversational, and that makes it more intimate and comfortable for most listeners. We're listening to a musical dialogue rather than a speech. The call-and-response pattern surely began with singing. It's quite common in some quite old religious hymn-singing traditions, but it also works in instrumental music and not only that made with wind instruments. How are you doing? Fine, thank you!
