The bloke with the glasses on his head says that “there were better bands out there” and John Bonham wasn’t a “technical drummer” is ignorant and obviously doesn’t play drums.
Some of these docs fall so short because of the people being interviewed....like, who are these people? They have very little name recognition and it's the same thing as me being interviewed talking about Led Zeppelin. It makes no sense and carries no weight. Also, these guys talk with such authority as if their opinion is of historical record or something. It isn't. So yeah, this doc isn't very good.
Led Zeppelin was not a "heavy metal" band. Some of their songs could fit in that class of music that was pioneered by Black Sabbath, but overall their music is varied and includes quite a few styles and musical genres. Some of the comments made by those interviewed in this video are odd sometimes. The claim that there are many "time signatures" on "Babe I'm gonna leave you" is simply wrong - the song is based on a standard 4/4 time signature.
I never got the opportunity to see led zeppelin in concert. I was a child in the 1970s. We’re the impression they were heavy metal. They’re were far from heavy metal. There music classic rock, folk. Etc. l apologise for the length of this comment. 😊❤❤❤❤
Stairway was not ripped off. It's a descending minor progression with a "line cliche" that is frequently used throughout history. If Page is guilty of stealing it, so is Spirit. It's a uninformed accusation. Page did however definately steal the Black Mountain Side theme from Bert Jansch
Zeppelin ended with Presence, to my mind, their best. Best of 7 exemplary studio albums. Not sure why this is titled as 73-80 when it starts with LZ1, but hey ho. Lucky enough to see them at Knebworth, '79.
Led Zeppelin were not heavy metal. This notion was debunked decades ago. And they were far better than any other band both before and since including The Beatles.
It’s hard to compare the two. The Beatles were pop them psychedelic. Zeppelin was blues hard rock from beginning to end. For me Zeppelin will always be number one. I was once asked if I could only listen to three bands the rest of my like who would not be. Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and Bob Dylan.
@@Leon-ym9qm it's all subjective but I can't stand the mainstream establishment types who always put The Beatles on a pedestal above everyone else. They were a phenomenon and great in their own right separate from their huge commercial success, but others were just as good who also have a relevant live legacy.
@@bradanderson6275 if Over The Hills And Far Away, The Rain Song, Fool In The Rain etc, are heavy metal then I must not understand what heavy metal is. Let's see Metallica or ACDC write songs like that.
Describing Jones as a 'solid' bass player kinda implies that he was just in the background doing nothing remarkable when in fact his bass parts were brilliant. Melodic, intricate, super tasteful and often mind blowing would better describe John Paul Jones bass playing. And then you have his arrangement and production skill . Jimmy Page was the unquestioned leader of the band but he was smart enough to not only accept input from Jones but encouraged it and didn't give a damn if the spotlight was on his band rather than himself occasionally
When the video reaches the point where Presence was discussed the feeling that was being put out was that it was a poor album and not up to the stratospheric levels of their earlier records. This was not the case. Presence, a great LP, was led by the mammoth "Achilles Last Stand" and its 10min duration but other terrific tracks were "For Your Life," and "Royal Orleans". Presence was far from the band members' favorite album but, to this fan, it was their 2nd best.
@@francoamerican4632 Do you morons actually know what a cover band is, well this is it. "noun. : a band that plays songs previously recorded by other performers. Using riffs from previous songs has been going on since the dawn of time and everybody has done it, it doesn't make them a covers band. Idiots
There's too much folk and blues in led Zeppelin to call them heavy metal; they're good old rock n roll to be honest!!! Way too much blues guitar licks involved with classical style folk acoustic. They stole from everywhere and did so many covers so I don't see where the heavy metal fits in.
These guys on this video are terrible.... So MANY mistakes talking about Led Zeppelin.... Disgrace.... Bonzo was a amazing drummer unbelievable the disrespect shown by these goofs.
I always find it interesting when someone says that they don't get Zeppelin. No other band has covered such a wide range of different types of music. To say that you don't get Zeppelin is like saying that you don't get rock, blues, country, jazz, folk, etc. which makes me feel sorry for you because it means that you're missing out on some of the most enjoyable things in life.
@@francoamerican4632Just your average Zep hater on the Internet looking for attention says they don't get Zep.... Like the goof that said on this vid that Zep ripped off Spirt that's BS. Zep rules PERIOD ✌🏼
The best Band ever ever !!!
The bloke with the glasses on his head says that “there were better bands out there” and John Bonham wasn’t a “technical drummer” is ignorant and obviously doesn’t play drums.
Led Zeppelin. My generation. Thanks for the great concert footage, because if you weren’t there you never really heard them before!
There will never be another as great as Led Zeppelin! ❤❤❤💋
Fabulous. Really enjoyed this vid. Learned something and got turned on to songs I'd previously missed or neglected. Thanks to all concerned.
I più grandi di tutti i tempi ❤❤

Your right about that,a bunch of failed musicians that could only be critics,it’s mostly the same blow hards over and over
Thank you for uploading this 😊

A rock-n-roll super group, where each member was the best in their field, made the greatest rock band ever- Led Zeppelin!
This is absolutely fantastic. All that footage from the Australian show ? Is this a fully filmed concert ?
Always pass over how they made those first 4 albums, in 2 years 😮
Zeppelin was spectacular! They were not heavy metal as they had alot of acoustic material.
Lots of bluegrass inspired stuff... wonderful!
Forefront heavy and so many uniquely defined styles including their own👣
I dont think of them as metal but plenty of metal bands use acoustic guitars Black Sabbath, Mastodon, Opeth etc

'Hot Dog' is one of their best songs!
Don't understand the criticism of their later stuff. In Through The Out Door is just a band changing. And a great title.
One of my favorite albums! JPJ at the wheel
Good times,Good good times 🎉

One can't debunk an opinion.

I never understood why they were called heavy metal or hard rock. To me they are just rock. Bluesy rock if we’re being specific
1:54 Heavy metal?... This guy, as many critics and commentators, has no idea of what he's talking about.

Left out too much from Zeppelin III!
Jones wrote the black dog riff, not Page
By the way everybody stole from everybody.
Jpg. Yes 😊😊 1
My absolute favorite cover band
Wank*r
The Rolling Stones were the ultimate cover band. Led Zeppelin was the ultimate band.

With the exit of the Beatles, Hendrix, Joplin and Morrison, Zep filled the vacuum and never looked back...
