@Benjamin S I've not seen anything where he says that, only an article called 'The real reason Robert Plant cried etc' where the author never even cited anything Robert ever said, just went into a lot of speculation. If you can post a link to anything of him directly stating that it was Jason, I'd like to see it. I found this article where he DOES talk about it, and it seems it was not Heart or Jason specifically that moved him, just kind of a wave of emotion about loss (meaning mostly John I guess) and how the song had taken flight and become what it remains today: ledzepnews.com/2018/06/23/robert-plant-on-stairway-to-heaven-its-like-a-relative-of-mine-somewhere/
@Benjamin S You know, I've seen that clip floating about and meant to watch it but just never did. Thank you so much for steering me in that direction, that was really good. So it was the loss of John that was bothering him the most there, it seems. Brought home by the fact his son showed up to play drums, right after he had said to Jimmy 'We should have invited Jason '. It was a magical night and nobody could have provided such a perfect soundtrack as Ann and Nancy did, for sure!
Robert actually doesn't even care for the song. Its pretty good, but Zeppelin has many that are much better. Like this one. Great band! Same with Heart...old Heart with Roger anyway. Roger Fisher is sadly overlooked when talking about classic rock players.
When she and Cameron Crowe divorced she asked for alimony....there's your "women's lib" for you. She was already a millionaire in one of the biggest bands of all time and still needed his money because he had more apparently. Look it up.
Nancy Wilson was the first female hard rock guitarist I ever heard. She broke the mold. Sister Ann, is an incredible singer. I could hardly believe in the 70’s when Heart just rocked the world. They both had a style all their own, but Nancy was the quiet one. A phenomenal guitarist who played what she felt and didn’t write it down on paper. You can’t write your soul down on paper, so it’s fun to watch her almost try here. She’s such a sweetheart.
the Bob Ross Analogy is pure gold!!!! and same here.. I just stumbled on these a few days ago and now Im subscribed and cant get enough....respect from Canada
I have loved this song, Battle of evermore, since is was first released. I bought a mandolin at least in part, so I could play this song. This is the first time I have seen it done right, and I could not be more grateful. Thank so much for posting.
Yes indeed. I have a mandolin, I know a few chords and I'll be working on this. As a guitar teacher myself, I say many thanks to Nancy for making this easy to learn. And all these years of great music. My band does the heart version of " tell it like it is"
I've seen several versions on TH-cam. Some were pretty good.. Then you hear a professional.. The clarity of notes.. The smoothness.. The nuances.. Well.. That's why she's a professional. : )
Nancy is very "English" that's all and I love ... I was a guitarist before and this video made me want to buy a mandolin ..... A big thank you to Nancy Wison for this video without which I would not have found the "keys" of how to play this title ...... cool!
The first time I saw Heart they opened for Loggings & Messina. I had never heard of them & they blew my mind so much I didn't even care about L&M. Ann's vocals were incredible and was IN LOVE with Nancy! Omg... a beautiful girl playing the hell out of her guitar! I was never the same after that night. ☺ It was in Jackson Mississippi, lol. I still love you Nancy!
All I know is her music sounds beautiful and soulful to me and the energy between her and her sister when they performed together was magical... her riffs are memorable ...
I seen Heart in Houston at the Summit somewhere around 1984. I was at the stage watching Nancy rip it up on a Guild Burnside electric guitar with Howard Leese. The Vocals between Ann, Nancy and the rest of the band were incredible. Magic Man was off the chain, Barracuda, Crazy On You, Tell it Like it is, and the Vocal on Dog and Butterfly, Still inspires me to this day. Wish I could have met them an have an acoustic jam. That would have been a Dream Come true.
That is exquisite indeed! A lot of it was Roger Fisher too, he is also a hugely talented mandolin and acoustic guitar player, in addition to his obvious talents on electric. Too bad they could not continue making music together any further than they did. That mostly dreadful.Heart 80s stuff would never have happened 😄
Incredible....and just explains the complexity that Jimmy Page composed and played with. She's every bit more amazing as a student of music in general. Understanding the history, of an instrument is the preamble to learning it. So impressive
I wouldn’t even have considered clicking on this one, if I had not watched a tape with the performance Ann and Nancy did of this song during the Concert for the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. Also, I half expected Nancy to sing the lead vocal while she was demonstrating her part.
I don't have much to add other than Nancy is an Alma Mater form my college and the Wilson sisters did a free concert for my college and it sold out in less than 5 minutes with no online orders allowed. They're such badasses.
@@dinkalicious Ever see Linda Carter's guest appearance on _The Muppet Show?_ She was clearly having more fun than it should be legal for a human to have. You could almost hear her giggling in glee and whispering "I'm on the Muppet Show! I'm on the Muppet Show!" An adorable human being.
Nancy is certainly a lovely person and talented musician. Let's not forget the also quite comely Sandy Denny whose Gaelic vocal chops can be heard on the Led Zeppelin original.
And is the only Zep track with an out of the band vocalist. Let me pitch it for a moment : Sandy Denny is the greatest female vocalist that you've never heard of. Find a copy of Gold Dust : Live At the Royalty. No vocal overdubs. All Sandy. Sad that she's passed. R.I.P.
@@jameshafner1442 Check out the album 'Alex Campbell and Friends', one of whom was a young Sandy Denny (before she joined Fairport). I've been a fan since around 1981 (sadly she died in 1978).
Wow, such a sweet and amazing performance by one of the most talented and technical female guitarists and artists of all time! Love Heart and Led Zeppelin! Two of my all time most favourite bands! Thank you very much for sharing this great video! All the best and much respect from a great rock fan from Romania! Rock on!
This was cool.... I've playing violin for 38 years. I did these chord changes, but I NEVER got my head around barreing this pattern because of the bow. When you went through the pre chorus, I was so onto those passing tones that I felt like I should have ALWAYS tried that prog through the changes! Thank you Ms. Wilson A. Pratti
U r a gift to us all...thank u once again for brightening my day sharing ur incredible talent...Nancy Wilson and the mandolin r an unbeatable combination..
Thank you Nancy for being you! I play guitar for 50 years but love the way a mandolin sounds, those double strings give it a slight chorus which I love. Carry on Nancy!
I saw the band when they needed covers to fill a venue. That talent shined then and today. The sisters as musicians are the best of human kind...musicians from the soul
Thank you Nancy!!!! I love that LZ tune too. I remember going to my first Rock Concert at Hancher Auditorium, Iowa City, IA and seeing you play mandolin, acoustic, and electric guitars. That Little Queen show was phenomenal!!!! The LZ encore performance was incredible. I later on was able to see Led Zeppelin’s last concert tour ever in Manheim Germany. Thanks for the amazing Mandolin lesson Nancy! I just finished a complete restoration of a 1940 mandolin and am looking forward to playing this song first on it.
My God, Nancy's so beautiful. Her hands still look like they're 20 years old. Incredible musician. One of the first songs a band I was in, in the seventies was Barracuda "
I love my mandolin! I have over ten guitars, drums, a keyboard and my mandolin. Nancy your and Ann's songs with heart with the mandolin inspired me to pick up the mandolin and learn to play
Nancy Wilson is a very awesome musician and such a beautiful and sweet person with an awesomely beautiful heart!❤️ She also participates in some very worthwhile causes to better humanity.
Reading the Page biography Jimmy simply picked up a mandolin and went up and down the scales and thought it might make a decent new tune. Simplicity is...what?
Jimmy could pick it up and play it. Nancy could listen to it, play it and then write down the music. VERY few could or still can do what she can. I don’t know if anyone has Jimmy’s skills.
I love it and I love the way you play dream boat Anny and the way your sister sings all of the " HEART" SONGS" You people are in our Hearts as the best of Rock and Roll and Nancy you play it as the best.
My guitar teacher used to totally pee me off. He would listen to a tune once and could play it note for note at full speed immediately. Occasionally fell off the horse, but years as a session player helps.
I would watch an hour long video of Nancy showing how she makes toast.
I would watch 10 hours of her teaching Heart and Zepplin.
She makes toast? I like toast.

Reading the Page biography Jimmy simply picked up a mandolin and went up and down the scales and thought it might make a decent new tune. Simplicity is...what?
He has that habit of misdirection many clever players do 😉
John Paul Jones played the mandolin on all of Zeppelin's original tunes...
Jimmy could pick it up and play it. Nancy could listen to it, play it and then write down the music. VERY few could or still can do what she can. I don’t know if anyone has Jimmy’s skills.
@@eddonahue2756 It was reported that at one time in the UK, 10 of the top 20 singles featured Jimmy Page as session guitarist.
@@Kreln1221 There's an underrated musician.
I found myself captivated not by your music but your personality. There is something nice about you.
She is an amazing musician! I absolutely love her.
Me too...she inspired me to pick up the guitar at age 16 and has remained my primary inspiration!
Thank you Nancy,
Its a rare pleasure to listen to you talk, in addition to the music )
"It's kind of like...that uh...violin sounding thing" :D
Quite a class act! Thanks Nancy for sharing your talents
I love it and I love the way you play dream boat Anny and the way your sister sings all of the " HEART" SONGS" You people are in our Hearts as the best of Rock and Roll and Nancy you play it as the best.
One of my favorite instruments
knows it by heart.
I see whacha did there
👏👏
The dad jokes are strong with this one...
My guitar teacher used to totally pee me off. He would listen to a tune once and could play it note for note at full speed immediately. Occasionally fell off the horse, but years as a session player helps.
🌽 yet satisfying.
@@philgray1023 That's not so hard after a while
Pretty Fancy playing there Nancy! I saw Heart, Journey and Cheap Trick play 10 years ago outside Sacramento area. What a show! Heart was awesome!
