One day at work I was walking past my boss and singing quietly, "I don't know, but I been told....." My boss finished, "A big legged woman ain't got no soul" He was an awesome boss.
Definitely listen to “When the Levee Breaks”. It’s an old blues standard, but Zep made it their own. And you will probably recognize the drum beat in the opening bars - it’s one of the most sampled grooves in modern music.
The way to listen to this properly is play side one, (starting with this song, of course) all the way through Stairway, flip the record a nd listen to that. Then change the bong water...
“It sounds like there’s two different drummers and two different beats.” Say hello to John “Bonzo” Bonham, the original power drummer and OG GOAT on drums.
This is one of the songs where Jon Bonham (the drummer) plays in a different time signature than the rest of the band is playing. It's difficult to do, not just for the drummer but the rest of the band as well. As a listener, it makes it hard to find the groove on your first time through the song. But after a few times through it, you feel the groove a lot more and you think, "how did they come up with that?".
Uh oh.. now you've stumbled on one of the most iconic rock songs of ALL TIME . .. few are better .. very few .. this is a song that will still be played 100 years from now . .
Homework assignment. Listen to Stairway to Heaven their best ever and one of the greatest in rock music history. Then female Friday Heart’s rendition from the 2012 Kennedy Center Honors paying tribute to John Paul Jones, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page with late drummer’s John Bonman son Jason on his dad’s drums
Led Zeppelin was/is an influence on everyone. This was one of the 1st albums I bought that wasn't The Beatles specifically because of this song. The technique is call & response. It was unusual because the call was vocal and the response was instrumental. There are 3 sections (instrumentally) which are fairly simple when you look at the tabs. The timing and cadence make it quite a bit more complex, but still not too hard to play. Jay mentioned a few things that made Led Zeppelin a cut above almost everyone else. John Bonham's drumming is in a class by itself. Robert Plant's voice is what every rocker wishes he had. John Paul Jones could play just about anything and was/is a genius in terms of creating very complex time signatures and changes between them within the same piece. And then there's Jimmy Page. Besides being a guitarist extraordinaire, he was a masterful producer. One of the things he did on Black Dog and many others was double and triple tracking a line. That's why it sounds like there's more than one guitar even though he's the only one playing guitar. (David Gilmore of Pink Floyd is another master of this.) And he often plays more than one part. It's as captivating and electrifying now as it was all those years ago. Never gets old.
I don't know enough about musical techniques to explain what I hear. SERIOUSLY thanks for the breakdown. I was a teenager 1969 - 1970s I just loved their music. I'm old enough now that I've been going back to find out why I really liked these songs. Thank you
@@CuttinEJ Born in 71 A kid from Clevelands east side. I was introduced to Sabbath The Who and Zeppelin as a teen in the 80s. Along with My old R&B this made me appreciate what we call now classic rock more.
@@CuttinEJ I'm 70, so talk about old! About 5yrs ago I was patting myself on the back because I "thought" I was researching the music I loved from the 50, 60 & 70s. But you showed me I have a long way to go. Again thanks for the breakdown
@@edwardbroyles9738 I'm happy just to think anyone actually read what I wrote. If you got any benefit from it then maybe I'm not quite a Cliff Claven after all. Lol!
Jordan reacted to my favorite Led Zeppelin song “Since I’ve Been Loving You” before Amber joined up, and very early in his reactions. I think it needs a revisit, Amber would love it, the vocals and guitar work are so smooth.
I agree but I prefer the studio version of Since I've Been Loving You and I believe that Jordan may have reacted to the live version!! I really think that Robert Plant vocals on the studio version have never been better!!! When he does that high scream near the end of the song it makes my skin just become Goosebumps City!!!!
Yeah, the studio version of that song - which I think has the best solo Jimmy Page ever did and one of the greatest blues songs every recorded - is the most underrated LZ song in their entire catalog.
Released 50 years ago this week, and still sounds fresh as a daisy today. We are nearly as far away from this song as they were from World War I when they wrote it. That's insane.
"Whole lotta love", "Immigrant song", Ramblin on", "When the levee breaks", "Going to California", "Over the hills and far away", "All my love", "Dazed and confused", "What is and never should be"
Yes to all of these! And I would add "Tangerine", "Goin' to California" & Gallow's Pole" to the list. I can't remember, have they done "Stairway to Heaven" yet?
I'd like to hear Jordan try to analyze the abstractions in the lyrics when it's impossible... I remember Plant saying in an interview once, "Don't think about it too much... just enjoy it."
This song was recorded so well. You hear every little sound perfectly even after all these years. First Zeppelin song I ever heard. First year in high school.
Think I was 13 in '75, when an older kid showed me this....It had been at the back of my mom's huge album stack, and I didn't know what it was. It changed my life. This and the weed I guess, LOL....
@@johnathandavis3693 It was 1977 for me. Not when the song first came out. For couple of years Zeppelin was my favorite band. Then it just got heavier from there.
Led Zeppelin Going to California is one of their best songs . You want acoustic guitar and a mandolin , its mellow song. People only think of Zeppelin as hard rock. I suggest you watch a live version. Alot of the song is a reference to Joni Mitchell. Robert Plant ( lead singer) thought she was special , which she was. I hope you take my advice You WILL NOT be disappointed. Led Zeppelin is one of those bands to watch live. They sound as good if not better live.
Great reaction. Led Zeppelin set the bar for what a rock band could be in the 70's, and after that, most bands didn't even try since Zeppelin was so amazing. All four members were exceptional, and together they were unstoppable. Interesting about them is that their guitar play (Jimmy Page) was also their producer. So what you hear is unique, and exactly what he wanted the band to sound like.
This is from Led Zeppelin 4 released in 1971. I was 13 when I bought this album and this song starts off the record and it blew me away and still is one of my favorite Zep songs, easily top 3 for me. ✌️☮️💕
Led Zeppelin is considered one of the most influential bands of all time on the same level as the Rolling Stones, The Beatles, and Elvis. Stairway to Heaven and Immigrant some are my personal favorites. After you listen to Stairway to Heaven you have listen to the live tribute by Heart from the Kennedy Center. The video will blow you away. Considered one of the greatest tributes of all time.
You guys need to watch the the Kennedy Center Honors when Heart sings "Stairway to Heaven" with Led Zeppelin being honored and in the audience. Also to note, the man playing the drums for Heart in this sone is Jason Bonham, the son of the late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham.
Yes! We needed more Zeppelin. You should really react to “When The Levee Breaks” or some of my favorite “softer” songs “Going To California” and “Thank You”
"Thank you" has been one of my favorites for decades. I used part of the song as my h.s. senior quote. I also fought one of my English professors because I used Led Zep as an example of modern poetry. The words to "thank You" (not the actual song) made him change his mind (and my grade!).
I have requested Thank You to be reacted to a couple of times now. No one, and I mean no one, can do this song justice but Robert. His voice was made for this song and the song was made for his voice . Perfection !!!
I like you. I'm from switzerland, my brother in law is from los Angeles. I really never thouth, that you dont know this song. One of my absolutely favourite.
Oh, my favorite Zeppelin song. This and Whole Lotta Love. Some will say the riff in Black Dog was inspired by Peter Greens playing on Fleetwood Mac's Oh Well. 👍
In 2005, a British radio station did a poll to create the ultimate rock group. Listeners voted on their favorite singer, guitarist, bassist, and drummer. The four members of Led Zeppelin won 🤷🏼♂️
my mom before passing away at the age of 94. she passed 03--03-2019 . she loved this guys voice. it gave her chills down her spine. my mom loved all music.
Nobody ever mentions "Hot Dog" or "Good Times, Bad Times" or "Gallows Pole" or "Tangerine" or "No Quarter" or "Over the Hills and Far Away" or "Ramble On" or "The Ocean" ... Always "When the Levee Breaks". Great song, don't get me wrong, but they have soooooo many great songs. IMO they are one of the most diverse bands out there
Watching you guys react to songs reminds me of how we used to really listen to songs when I was growing up, you would put a record on and sit down and listen, maybe check out the art work in the album and read the liner notes, but as a teenager I used to really listen, nowadays you have music on while cleaning, studying, working etc but the closest is driving around in your car and just listening.it doesn’t seem like people listen to music that way anymore, enjoy watching you do that .
Agreed.. go buy the album and I was good for 6 hours, holed up in my room, listening over and over. Check out the art work, sometimes they had pics, posters or lyrics.. ahh, those were the days! I know every lyric to lots of them..
My favourite group ever! Led Zeppelin is a rabbit hole you guys need to get into more. No 2 songs are the same. Different styles and mind-blowing instrumentation. 3 musicians and Robert Plant, lead singer, his voice is an instrument in itself. Babe I'm going to leave you Since I've been loving you live at MSG 1973
This band have the greatest rock guitarist, vocalist, drummer (sadly deceased) and bass player/multi instrumentalist in the history of rock music. You could play 100tracks if theirs, they are that good.
Congratulations OK & great taste with anything & everything Led Zeppelin.Kashmir, Stairway to Heaven, When the Levee Breaks… all great ones to try as well.
What I love about Led Zeppelin the most is every song is like a new ice cream that you just discovered ! When I first started listening to these guys 50 yrs ago.....I was in PURE heaven!
This was my High School Football Teams song before we walked out to play every home game.....We would crank this so loud so the visitors could hear it in their locker room too. 1977-81
Led Zeppelin is widely considered the greatest Rock band in history for a reason. Well, reasons. Everyone is one of the greatest ever in their instrument and Robert Plant is always on best singer list. I really think the deeper cuts you will even enjoy. 10 years gone, when the levee breaks, four sticks is interesting because the drummer uses to six in each hand.
Musically, the beginning of heavy metal rock... Robert's vocals gave many the blueprint for rock's "crying/screaming' style. Jimmy Page kills it on guitar and John Bonham's drumming led to Neil Peart of Rush
What about John Paul Jones? As usual, he is given short shrift. He is the one who was responsible for writing the main riff of this song. Show some respect!
Dazed and confused, whole lotta love you must take a. listen to and watch them live. The performances are a show not to be missed. Led Zeppelin is all about the feeling.
I agree that you should listen to “When the Levee Breaks.” You will immediately recognize the opening drum beat because so many Hip-Hop artists have used it in their songs. It’s got an awesome groove too.
Led Zeppelin albums are meant to play back to back. Their hits are endless. They were always evolving. I was going to see them in concert with my uncle who saw them multiple times. He was going to splurge and get us front and center... Bonham died! I was devastated! 😓😫
I've seen a clip a while back of Robert Plant singing with Led Zep , in Paris - when he was about 21. Just an astonishing performance for one so young.
They couldn't come up with a title for this song, but there was a black labrador retriever hanging out in the recording studio when they were recording it, so they called it Black Dog. That's the kind of thing that happens when you try to come up with a song title while you're stoned.
@@damnyancey nope. The song title definitely refers to a neighbors dog who used to pay visits to Headley Grange while the band was recording the album. That's a pretty well documented story.
One of the really cool things about this song is how slowly John Bonham plays during the fast guitar after each verse. He’s just sitting back, playing it nice and easy, yet anchoring the song perfectly. He was amazing.
you guys also reacted to “ Whole Lotta Love” where Amber said something like oh he loves her so much … Then realized what the song was really about. LOL
There are so many great songs by LZ. Can't go wrong with most of songs. If I listed out all the songs I would suggest, it would be better to just say pick any song off any album and you probably won't be disappointed.
Robert Plant is the one singing. One of the greatest Rock voices ever!
Yes! 🤘🏼
The golden god
Thanks for saying what I was thinking.
If they want to see another side to Robert Plant...they need to checkout The Honeydrippers
Hot too!
Absolutely Love Robert Plant's voice...legendary!!
All four are legendary.
I only wish you had cleaner audio to fully enjoy this song!!
One day at work I was walking past my boss and singing quietly, "I don't know, but I been told....." My boss finished, "A big legged woman ain't got no soul" He was an awesome boss.
Wonderful
These Guys Great !! Zep Are So Much Fun !!😅😊
😂😂😂
Led Zeppelin.

More like all the old blues performers that they stole from.
Robert Plant...grew up with this group...my parents hated them!!
Oh, yeah, it has to-easily-be in the top 5 of most sampled grooves, let alone drum beats.
Best bluesy rock band. Dazed & Confused one of my favorites!
“It sounds like there’s two different drummers and two different beats.”
Say hello to John “Bonzo” Bonham, the original power drummer and OG GOAT on drums.
Immigrant song was mine. My oldest brother had the album and I heard it on the Gong Show 😅
Definetelly one the greats.
Bam Bam Bonham
You have to listen to a video detailing John Bonham technique.
My brother is a drummer, and he said he never could figure out how Bonzo did it lol
This is one of the songs where Jon Bonham (the drummer) plays in a different time signature than the rest of the band is playing. It's difficult to do, not just for the drummer but the rest of the band as well. As a listener, it makes it hard to find the groove on your first time through the song. But after a few times through it, you feel the groove a lot more and you think, "how did they come up with that?".
Yeah it’s savage. One of the greatest grooves in rock
Gonzo was the best ever on drums. His death brought the band to an end. So sad.
true funk, just a polyrhythm that you key into. It's like a pulse that you tune into that already existed LOVE it
Uh oh.. now you've stumbled on one of the most iconic rock songs of ALL TIME . .. few are better .. very few .. this is a song that will still be played 100 years from now . .
Yesssssssssss
Another thing about zeppelin that is amazing is their music is 50 plus years old and doesnt really sound dated, their sound was phenomenal

"Thank You" by Led Zeppelin is absolutely beautiful. Also, John Bonham is a beast on drums.

Yeah the harmonica is awesome
My fav Zep tune. Pure class.
I agree
Masterpiece. Perfect word.
Definitely top 3 cover songs of all time
When the leeve breaks is hard and blues and rock. You'll both love it. Lots of harmonica.
You two are so much fun to watch. You’re electric together and that comes through onscreen. Thank you for all of your efforts!
I agree one hundred percent 😄
Agreed!! So sweet!!💙🌷💙
Yes, Yes, Yes
Led Zeppelin 1 is the greatest debut album ever ❤

That's the great Robert Plant's voice, honey! It would be a sad old world without that voice!!
Released 50 years ago this week, and still sounds fresh as a daisy today. We are nearly as far away from this song as they were from World War I when they wrote it. That's insane.

@@Nutty_commenter 100% agree with you

That is nuts.
Right at the top of my very favourite bands of all time!!! People used to say if you love Zeppelin you'll love Rush!
"Whole lotta love", "Immigrant song", Ramblin on", "When the levee breaks", "Going to California", "Over the hills and far away", "All my love", "Dazed and confused", "What is and never should be"
Yes to all of these! And I would add "Tangerine", "Goin' to California" & Gallow's Pole" to the list. I can't remember, have they done "Stairway to Heaven" yet?

"Going to California" is one of my favorites ever, and so often overlooked. Possibly their most underrated song.
@@davidcenteno3546 It's definitely one of their best.
Custard Pie!

It’s legit hurts me that you haven’t heard Stairway to Heaven yet! Voted the greatest rock song of all time by Rolling Stone magazine
It’s a classic, no doubt, but I never really liked Stairway. Just my opinion
I'd like to hear Jordan try to analyze the abstractions in the lyrics when it's impossible... I remember Plant saying in an interview once, "Don't think about it too much... just enjoy it."
@@sloebone7399 it was the song that made them mainstream,but definitely no where near my favourite either,so much better to choose from.

Best songs: Kashmir, immigrant song, black dog!
That's Robert Plant. Tenor. When he sings, he goes off like a war siren.
This song was recorded so well. You hear every little sound perfectly even after all these years.

Led Zeppelin is quite possibly the greatest Rock and Roll of all time...dig in deep guys!
Always loved the lead on the outro...Encapsulates Page's unique style...
One of the great voices, SIR Robert Plant!
Led Zeppelin is considered one of the most influential bands of all time on the same level as the Rolling Stones, The Beatles, and Elvis. Stairway to Heaven and Immigrant some are my personal favorites. After you listen to Stairway to Heaven you have listen to the live tribute by Heart from the Kennedy Center. The video will blow you away. Considered one of the greatest tributes of all time.
I agree... Heart's cover of Stairway to Heaven is brilliant! Heart also have some really good songs... Crazy on you is my favourite.
It's not bad but not that good.
Robert plant literally cried listening to heart cover his music
Saw them in Atlanta Stadium in 1973.
Ive been listening to Zeppelin for over 50 years......Still gives me goosebumps!
Yes always I'm 62 and I fell in love first time hearing Zeppelin two and I was 9 years old 1969 yeah baby
You guys need to watch the the Kennedy Center Honors when Heart sings "Stairway to Heaven" with Led Zeppelin being honored and in the audience. Also to note, the man playing the drums for Heart in this sone is Jason Bonham, the son of the late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham.
They need to react to LZ Stairway first.
It's not bad but not that good.
Yes! We needed more Zeppelin. You should really react to “When The Levee Breaks” or some of my favorite “softer” songs “Going To California” and “Thank You”
They’ve never heard Stairway!!
@@dannysalamon5731 They Haven’t?! I don’t know why I assumed/thought they had. Well that’s definitely a must!

Greatest rock band ever!!!!
You can never go wrong with ANY Led Zeppelin song!
Back in the early 70's I was in high school and we use to ride around town and put some Led Zeppilin on . And go to McDonald's. Good memories!!! LOL
The best thats ever been !
That voice, that riff, that song..... Zeppelin!
Do “Ramble On” next!!
Oh, my favorite Zeppelin song. This and Whole Lotta Love. Some will say the riff in Black Dog was inspired by Peter Greens playing on Fleetwood Mac's Oh Well. 👍
You couldn't imagine a band as big as this these days. They were a huge part of the phenomenal era of 60's and 70's music!
Yep NO LZ for the 80s
You gotta watch “since I’ve been loving you” live at Madison square garden 1973. Greatest performance ever.
Best, most important rock band ever! So much varied excellent influentical music. Deep dive!
In 2005, a British radio station did a poll to create the ultimate rock group. Listeners voted on their favorite singer, guitarist, bassist, and drummer. The four members of Led Zeppelin won 🤷🏼♂️
Who else sang every word to this song? I did!
You can't go wrong with Led Zeppelin. Any of their songs 🎵
my mom before passing away at the age of 94. she passed 03--03-2019 . she loved this guys voice. it gave her chills down her spine. my mom loved all music.
Terrific Musicians and Robert Plant Busts this number Wide open!
Nobody ever mentions "Hot Dog" or "Good Times, Bad Times" or "Gallows Pole" or "Tangerine" or "No Quarter" or "Over the Hills and Far Away" or "Ramble On" or "The Ocean" ... Always "When the Levee Breaks". Great song, don't get me wrong, but they have soooooo many great songs. IMO they are one of the most diverse bands out there
Many very good choices there
Exactly!
Over the hills is one of my favourites
There is a good reason no-one mentions Hot Dog.
Thank you for mentioning Gallows Pole and Tangerine! Songs that were rarely played on the radio. 👍
Love Hot Dog, another favorite is Boogie with Stu.
John Bonham the drummer is a beast , R.I.P. John Bonham
From Led Zeppelin 4. One of the greatest rock and roll albums ever.
Comes from a classic Zeppelin album. Every song on it is a prized gem.
I just wish I can go back in time and listen to these songs for the first time ever...no going to lie I am a little jealous haha!!!

Led Zeppelin is my top # 1 band. Followed by Pink Floyd. Everything Led Zepplin is good. Listen to “When the Levee Breaks”.
Ditto
My favourite group ever! Led Zeppelin is a rabbit hole you guys need to get into more. No 2 songs are the same. Different styles and mind-blowing instrumentation. 3 musicians and Robert Plant, lead singer, his voice is an instrument in itself.
Babe I'm going to leave you
Since I've been loving you live at MSG 1973
Probably thee best hard rock and roll band - ever. So many great songs.
My absolute favorite Led Zeppelin is "Fool in the Rain." It's one hell of a groove, and the story has an amazing punchline.
Yes!!! 👊🏼👍🏻
Yes! Excellent suggestion!
I stand in the rain 'til I'm breathless, when I'm breathless I run 'til I drop...
This is such an iconic song it is one of my favorites.
This band have the greatest rock guitarist, vocalist, drummer (sadly deceased) and bass player/multi instrumentalist in the history of rock music. You could play 100tracks if theirs, they are that good.
Congratulations OK & great taste with anything & everything Led Zeppelin.Kashmir, Stairway to Heaven, When the Levee Breaks… all great ones to try as well.
Oh and I would recommend "Fool in the Rain" or "Dyer Maker". Zepp is so diverse in their sound. Really worth exploring.
fool in the rain has some of my favorite drumming ever
Dyer Maker is awesome.
What I love about Led Zeppelin the most is every song is like a new ice cream that you just discovered ! When I first started listening to these guys 50 yrs ago.....I was in PURE heaven!
This was my High School Football Teams song before we walked out to play every home game.....We would crank this so loud so the visitors could hear it in their locker room too. 1977-81

Led Zeppelin is widely considered the greatest Rock band in history for a reason. Well, reasons. Everyone is one of the greatest ever in their instrument and Robert Plant is always on best singer list.
I really think the deeper cuts you will even enjoy. 10 years gone, when the levee breaks, four sticks is interesting because the drummer uses to six in each hand.
You're absolutely right!
Musically, the beginning of heavy metal rock... Robert's vocals gave many the blueprint for rock's "crying/screaming' style.
Jimmy Page kills it on guitar and John Bonham's drumming led to Neil Peart of Rush
What about John Paul Jones? As usual, he is given short shrift. He is the one who was responsible for writing the main riff of this song. Show some respect!
The Rain Song. Can't recommend it enough and nobody else ever does.
M favourite Zeppelin song and one of the most beautiful songs of all time. Incredible Page composition.
Dazed and confused, whole lotta love you must take a. listen to and watch them live. The performances are a show not to be missed. Led Zeppelin is all about the feeling.
I agree that you should listen to “When the Levee Breaks.” You will immediately recognize the opening drum beat because so many Hip-Hop artists have used it in their songs. It’s got an awesome groove too.
Led Zeppelin albums are meant to play back to back. Their hits are endless. They were always evolving. I was going to see them in concert with my uncle who saw them multiple times. He was going to splurge and get us front and center... Bonham died! I was devastated! 😓😫
I was set to see LZ in 1980 too. Bonham died and I was utterly devastated...
Love this band. When the levee breaks is another great song by them
Zeppelin s catalog is Flawless! You can't go wrong with any song
I've seen a clip a while back of Robert Plant singing with Led Zep , in Paris - when he was about 21. Just an astonishing performance for one so young.
Robert Plant was the only singer for Zep from 1968-1980, it's not like he made a special appearence.
Yes I've seen almost all their performances...even the bootlegs...nobody comes close!

They couldn't come up with a title for this song, but there was a black labrador retriever hanging out in the recording studio when they were recording it, so they called it Black Dog. That's the kind of thing that happens when you try to come up with a song title while you're stoned.
Probably not true. It's about a prostitute.
@@damnyancey nope. The song title definitely refers to a neighbors dog who used to pay visits to Headley Grange while the band was recording the album. That's a pretty well documented story.
@@damnyancey No it isn’t. Where on earth did you hear that?!
The most essential song would be Whole Lotta Love. Also Stairway to Heaven.
Led Zeppelin songs that I love: In The Light, Ten Years Gone, and Fool in the Rain.
One of my favorite rock vocalists ever, and you have notice how he almost uses his voice as another instrument in the band.
One of the really cool things about this song is how slowly John Bonham plays during the fast guitar after each verse. He’s just sitting back, playing it nice and easy, yet anchoring the song perfectly. He was amazing.
His syncopation on the bridge is just brilliant
So many great Led Zeppelin songs! My favorite is Good Times, Bad Times. 👍
Robert Plant is unmatched. Nobody has nor will have a voice like his.
"babe I'm gonna leave you" and "thank you" are my favorite zeppelin tunes. Definitely worth a listen
Seven Zep songs in, and you've barely scratched the surface. Hope you'll do "Ramble On" or "The Ocean" next. :)
You have to listen to You Shook Me. They take you through a slow blues beat, rock and then they take you to church. Robert Plants voice is incredible.
you guys also reacted to “ Whole Lotta Love” where Amber said something like oh he loves her so much … Then realized what the song was really about. LOL
They are the MASTERS of making odd-time signatures groove(y)!!!
There are so many great songs by LZ. Can't go wrong with most of songs.
If I listed out all the songs I would suggest, it would be better to just say pick any song off any album and you probably won't be disappointed.
