My sentiments exactly!! 😁🤘✌️

So hard to pick favorites, when so many are so great. I can pick my 2 favorite live songs though, MSG (73) Since I’ve Been Loving You, & Earls Court May 25,1975 In My Time Of Dying.

Exactly!!! LOL! Making a top 10 list of Led Zeppelin songs is an exercise in futility, too many great songs, lucky us!

Just another 30?

@@sicotshit7068 LOVE those two as well

Robert Plant wasn't convinced: "Sometimes me and Pagey have been tempted to stop all the loud stuff and do an Incredible String Band kind of thing, believe it or not." (Rolling Stone 1973) "I was thrilled to be around them. I thought their whole communion of audience and musical troupe was absolutely wonderful. However, somehow or other The Prince of Darkness drew me closer and closer to Alice Cooper and the ridiculousness of rock culture and I kept looking behind wistfully as I jumped on the starship and went off to commit more carnal atrocities ha, ha! The one thing we always wanted to do in Led Zeppelin was to finish off the showwith the String Band's A Very Cellular Song** - the bit that goes 'I was walking in Jerusalem just like John. goodnight, goodnight..' " Stuff like Ramble On and Going to California far surpass their blues re-workings..

@@alfonslemel5745 I understand, it must be overwhelming all that fame and pressure. I love all of their work. Both loud and gentle like Going to California....

Not late at all. "Rock Music fans arrive precisely when they need to." They'll carry on the great hard rock sounds like pollen blown along in a breeze to fertilize future growth in the pastures.

damm I feel old, but glad these two nice young ones appreciate that good stuff existed long ago.

And that's how you play the bass...JPJ underrated hero. The whole thing is the drums and that bass riff.

John Henry Bonham was the GOAT! The greatest drummer that ever drew breath. No contest.

1971….Zeppelin IV

@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 I was 14years old and played my tennis raquet guitar, no air guitar back then.......geez what a time, saw them live in 1972 , Melbourne and Sdyney , Australia Tour..LOUD

Floyd for sure……..and I’m hoping for Zeppelin. They deserve it

My son's brought up on Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd Now my grandsons 14 and 15 listen to this music hopefully it long lives in there lives and families for Years to Come. Greatest music produced

I wish he played the harmonica more often, he’s an amazing harmonica player.

​@sicotshit7068 💯 agreed but when you have a such an amazing voice, and why not use it to your best abilities? Robert Anthony Plant for me the greatest frontman of any rock band those high notes are simply legendary amazing.

@@mohammedjamil2277 I think Plants voice is amazing, & the greatest frontman, but I love his harmonica playing too. I’m not saying every song, nor the whole song, he just didn’t play it enough though.

best choice they made was slowing the tape down once the instruments were recorded, dropping the tone into ominous. the original recording from when, 1930s? sorry it and me are old o0 was what i'd call ehh guitar finger-pickin' Mississippi style. They pared it down, put it to tape then slowed the tape down. Worked well. Unless you were one of us cover bands trying to play it in a bar.

Yes it gave it that amazing deep rich sound, Bonham absolutely loved the sound he got out of them, obviously we do too.

@@JR-tr1df Its still my favourite Zeppelin track...I have to stop and listen whenever I hear it.

wassn't there a spiral staircase in that castle/home?? I think i remember reading that page put the microphone down the spiral staircase, but maybe i have the wrong track

@@user-nu3uc9fp3s I can’t remember if it was spiral but its 3 floors open staircase, & yes microphones hung from different levels.

It's a complete reworking. Far more than a cover. Its 95% their own stuff.

That's Memphis Minnie.

That song shows what all they do with the solos, keyboard harmonica guitar, & Bonzo’s drums. Add in amazing Plant vocals, & a debut album to boot.

GFox Your last comment is so true. But they are a great couple…..

@@sicotshit7068 typo……debut album

@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 yes, I know it’s debut, stupid auto correct.

Top 3 Rock harmonica players for me with Mick Jaeger and Magic Dick from J Geils. Robert does not get enough credit, he not only is a great player, but makes it blend into their sound perfectly. Beyond great band, we are not worthy!

YES!

YES

The rain song is their magnum opus in my opinion. That song belongs at the birth of a child, finding your first love, and your funeral. It’s appropriate for each stage of that.

I used to live in Grayshott and visited it a few times.

Spot on!

The displacement caused by the 1927 flood laid the foundation for the Great Migration north in the 1950s and '60s, after the invention by International Harvester of a (relatively) inexpensive and largely effective cotton-boll harvesting machine made black labor less necessary, in the South. Until then, many black people who sought to leave lives of grotesque oppression and abject poverty in the South faced many obstacles from those who feared the loss of cheap labor. The invention of the cotton harvester made that labor ever-less necessary; white "defense councils" and other groups that implemented and enforced systemic Southern racism didn't want blacks around if they weren't needed by rich white people; and the laws and extra-judicial terror and violence that kept black trapped began to decline. As a result, black people began to abandon the Southern States in large numbers, and most went to places that already had black communities. Because of the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, Chicago was one of those places -- and the rail yards and feedlots on the Southside needed workers. When the lyrics say, "I'm going to Chicago/and I can't take you," it refers to that initial 1920s displacement of desperately poor people who had lost *everything* .

Tens of thousand of black residents of the Delta were trapped on the levees, for several weeks, without food and clean water, before being rescued. As that was the only high place around, residents flocked there first, but breaks in the levee caused them to be stranded, as the levees became islands.

@@ramblerdave1339 and the way thousands were treated afterwards was appalling. Not allowed to leave the refugee camps so that the white planters would have enough labor for their plantations.

LZ: a band comprised of journeyman musicians. They helped ELECTRIFY the old classic Black blues tunes for a new generation ... and the movement has not stopped yet!!!

Not gonna lie....I listened to Zeppelin but they weren't my go to. In the late Eighties a radio station played Zeppelin from around 11pm to 1am... As I was delivering pizzas I heard No Quarter for the first time.. I didn't get it...Each Saturday the song grew on me...love it now

Yes, another top 5 Zeppelin track for me. It scared us in 1969, LOL!

My favourite changes hourly.

I’ve seen the life on the Road one but not the compilation one. I’ll look for it. I’d LOVE to know where that bridge is where they met up! And the name Of that beach.

In the light

Cant see how they thought it would work, being the harmonica work🤷

@@Brandi6666 what do you mean? You mean referring to Jason’s band? Their vocalist played harmonica.

@@helenespaulding7562 no led zep with plant singing and playing the harmonica bits simultaneously

@@Brandi6666 oh yeah. Well….they had to make accommodations like that all the time when they played live. Like with A hikes Last Stand: In the studios Page did six or so overdubs. Obviously, live, he could not cover all of them, so did the best he could. Which was excellent. And whereas in the studio, JPJ could do his keyboards and bass separately, in concert it had to be keyboards and bass peddles. But any band has to do that when taking studio tracks live. So…IF they could have produced that enormous drum sound live, they would have done it. Plant would have done his incredible harmonica solo with Page’s guitar, and would have forgone his vocalizations over the harmonica he did in the studio .

Thank you! Sending you both hugs and kisses 😃😃💟
