He talks about Bert Jansch as his favorite recorded tone. He used the same rca compressor limiters. He always took mental notes as a session player so when he had his chance he was the architect of the sound.
What I admire about Led Zeppelin's live performances is that they're completely unique, you'll never hear the same way twice. They changed the key from the studio version, add a verse, add a guitar solo, change the instrumentation, etc. It made their performances more special. I love it.
They changed the song's key (1 step higher) because they also changed the tuning Jimmy uses on guitar (studio version is on Open F tuning, live versions were on Open G). They changed the tuning for convenience's sake as That's The Way, the song preceding Bron-Y-Aur Stomp in the 1975 Earls Court setlist, was also in Open G. In the 1977 tour they took out That's The Way and replaced it with Black Country Woman, which was also in Open G.
Sometimes i watch these concert videos, and its like they are playing for each other, like a jam session and we are all privileged to watch. I'm so glad I grew up with Led Zep's music. Long live Rock n Roll!!!!!
@@JeffKing310 you can tell how much they loved it, many of the bands I saw, played like they had to not like they needed to. In the videos, you see their joy & passion of playing.
+Sara Page yes ! sara jimmy page a débuté dans le groupe "the yardbirds" en 65 il etait le leader !! LED ZEP ET PINK FLOYD the best groupes number one in the world sixties !! very goodddddddddddd I LIKE IT
j'aime tout ghez Jimmy : son jeu, évidemment, son impossibilité et ses sourires inattendus ses regards vers les autres, ses cheveux dans les yeux, la façon dont il rejette la tête en arrière. ❤❤❤❤
imagine being around a campfire and somebody busts out their guitar and starts playing this and everyone starts stomping and clapping and singing and life is good
Done that. My dad recantly got into this song and i sad "this one's for my old man" and everyona was happy 😄 I have been playing guitar for a year now.
I feel very lucky to be alive during this awesome age of musical genius. How fantastic can it get. Think about it Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Beatles, Stones, Deep Purple, CSN&Y on and on and on. Out of them all Led Zeppelin still supplies me with an endorphin release each time I hear their magik. Love their art.
What's amazing about this song is that they have managed to perfectly capture the highly bubbly and animated temperament of dog. Worth every note and it's dedicated to man's best friend. Led Zeppelin is truly the band, the myth, the legend.
Gawd am I the only person still alive to have seen Zep?? I am so happy that a new generation has found this band. I saw them first time in 1970 twice in 75 and last time in77..Best band of all time.
+Nola Belle Well Nola arn't we the fortunate ones huh? You know reading all the comments on any Led Zep video makes me realize just how fortunate we were. So many love the band and never had the opportunity that you and I had.
+Nola Belle New Orleans huh? Thats got to be pretty kewl Nola except for the storms you guys encounter. I'm in Vancouver the beautiful. They were my first concert back in 1970. My job allowed me to meet many famous people, but I never met Zep. I did however get to know a friend of Roberts briefly online, and she arranged for me to email Robert one time. I had express wanting to thank Robert for all the amazing music, so that was kewl.
Prashanna Gautam Oh I do know how fortunate I am. The more comments I read like yours enforces that belief. Thanks for the comment. Sorry you didn't get to see them.
Earls Court may have been LED ZEPPELIN at the Absolute Peak of Their Incredible Musical Powers... Robert Plant is Joyful & Beaming with his Golden god Presence. Jimmy Page has no equal & sounds like 2-3 Guitars ALL at the Same Time while Bonzo & John Paul are Absolutely Flawless while having Just as Much Fun as the Audience is! The TITANS Of Rock & Roll!
"I guess that the main difference between Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple performances, is that if the electricity cuts off, we can still continuing playing the show" (Jimmy Page)
What he's actually playing is an old folk/trad instrument there called cheating spoons there commonly used in Irish and English folk music give em a Google it's a very cool instrument
Prashant, yes. Total agreement. No other version of this comes close to this live one. It's outstanding. Every song they do is a beautiful masterpiece.
I completely agree with this statement, this is just such a fantastic version to this song. The guitar solo was just magical & excellent & you can't forget about the Strider shoutout lol.
Words fail. This is brilliant. Jimmy just killing it in the days when mic-ing an acoustic guitar for a huge stadium was a feat unto itself. Robert and Bonzo harmonizing, so rarely captured live. JPJ just content to be the best musician in the band. Gonna play this whenever I need a lift.
So SO much more than just a rock band. These guys were true artists, wrestles chameleons who could and did write everything and anything. Page is the most creative riff mister and melody maker to ever come down the pike and any sound he'd come up with Plant could compliment it with equal excellence. One HELL of an amazing group. Top selling hard rock band of all time. Epic for the eternities.
Lol Jimmy page is still alive and well.. With a smoking hot redhead girlfriend.. U said that like he's gone. Bonzo passed away at 38 years old. The drummer. The best drummer of all time. The remainimg band members agreed that the band could never be the same. I think the world agreed. Each one of them was vital. All 4 where the best at what they did.
The best voice of all time and lyrical genius. The best drummer ever, the best guitarist ever, the best bass and other instruments player. Should I say more.
Saw’em in 1977 5th row. The whole 3 1/2 hours I couldn’t believe I was actually there By far the best show. I can still remember the show. I’ve seen many many bands, no one compares
this song is a tribute to the folk rock influences of Led Zeppelin. It was conceived 49 yrs back in the windswept mountains of Wales in a small cottage without water, electricity and plumbing.
Decades listening to Led Zeppelin and I just noticed this song is about a dog. It suddenly got from being a good song to one of my all time favorites. Plus this performance is amazing.
Me too, I didn't know it was about Robert Plant's dog either. I saw them in Seattle in '75 when I was 18 yrs old. I'm 66 now and they are still my favorite!!!! I love this video, and this song has a new meaning for me cuz I'm a Rain Dog. Strider!!!
I feel the same, I was 5-6 yrs too young too see them, but I have been listening to Zep since I was 11. Zep 3 was their 1st album I bought & I fell in love with this song immediately!! After thousands of listening to it, today (from the comments) I just learned it's about Plants Dog as well. It just makes me love it that much MORE!! Cheers!!
BEST. BAND. EVER. The incredible wide scope+ diversity of Zeppelins material and the virtuosity and wide scope and diversity of their musical attack remains unequaled. It's staggering that with one or two exceptions they never repeated themselves stylistically in fact every song was in itself almost the style of brand new style unto itself.
One of the bests descriptions of Led Zeppelin ever..-! Each song was a unique tale, story, thunder, beast, poem, lyric, adventure, and beyond: into itself. Nothing like them (any of them)
Anybody else clapping/tapping along?.........I am. I love this!! Totally addictive. Absolutely the best version of this song ever by far. ❤️ LZ always and forever!!!
Lyrics: Ah caught you smiling at me That's the way it should be Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine Ah all the good times we had I sang love songs so glad Always smiling, never sad, so fine As we walk down the country lanes I'll be singing a song Hear me calling your name Hear the wind within the trees Telling mother nature about you and me Well if the sun shines so bright Or on our way it's darkest night The road we choose is always right, so fine Ah can your love be so strong When so many loves go wrong Will our love go on and on My, my, la de la, come on now it ain't too far Tell your friends all around the world Ain't no companion like a blue eyed merle Come on now well let me tell you What you're missing, missing, around them brick walls So of one thing I am sure, it's a friendship so pure Angels singing all around my door, so fine Yeah, ain't but one thing to do spend my natural life with you You're the finest dog I knew, so fine When you're old and your eyes are dim There ain't no old shep gonna happen again We'll still go walking down country lanes I'll sing the same old songs, hear me call your name
My blue eyed merle rough collie Strider is at my feet listening to this tune with me. Yup - named him after the original blue eyed merle collie owned by Robert Plant. Even took a photo of him as a pup on my motorcycle (just like Robert did). Ain't nothing in this world like a blue eyed merle............Strider!!!!
i was born in 1975 but my soul was born in late 40s/early 50s for sure...would have loved to seen these guy live in concert back then and burn one with the band back stage.
Bron Yr Aur (breast of gold). I have driven past Bron Yr Aur many times over the years. As have many thousands and thousands of people without realising it. Just outside of the town of Machynlleth in North Wales. Historically important as the site of the first ever Senedd (Welsh parliament) under Welsh Prince, Owain Glyndwr. Bron Yr Aur is set in beautiful surroundings. A place where Plant would holiday with his family as a child, and seek refuge from the stresses of touring later on in life. It must have been a source of great inspiration.
Show me at least one musician at these days who can make show like this. Pure talents. Jimmy - phenomenal guitarist Robert - amazing voice John Bonham - one of the best drummers (rock'n'roll) John Paul Jones- great bass player. I'm 28 and I listen to this legendary band almost everyday. Enjoy music 😎
Reducing JPJ to "great bass player" is like saying Michaelangelo did that cool sculpture that one time. My man is a virtuoso of anything with strings or keys.
So Plants dog was a Border Collie? After 40yrs of listening to this song - I just learned today that this song is/was about his dog!! Now thanks to you, I know what KIND of dog it was!! Fantastic!! Thank You Very Much!! Cheers!!
THAT SONG SOUNDED ABSOLUTELY AMAZING WHEN THEY DID IN CONCERT❤❤❤ LED ZEPPELIN WAS THE ONLY BAND THAT I WAITED IN LINE FOR TICKETS THE FIRST DAY THEY CAME OUT❤❤❤❤

Page made the acoustic guitar sound exactly what its meant to sound like. Perfect tone.
Dan Roux definitely
Riiight? He's the reason I fell in love with the acoustic.
17 76 same actually. His playing on acoustic is always perfect somehow
He talks about Bert Jansch as his favorite recorded tone.
He used the same rca compressor limiters.

Dan Roux And he did it before Taylor came out.

His voice compliments Plants very well.

+Charles Dupont .Yes!!!.
John Paul Jones is the best in the band
Are you and Jimmy related btw?? Just kidding. :D Wish my surname was Page or Plant or Bonham or Jones. Greatest Rock band ever!
Jimmy page is best in the band
Plant's voice is golden!!
And Bonham’s!
Apparently bonhams is too
And this is after he messed up his vocal chords
Bonhams backing vocals are so damn good here
The GDOAT and could sing as well!
Да и он сам чертовски хорош
And he sings upper third
I thought Plant’s vocals were double-tracked. Then I realized Bonzo was singing backup!
I haven't seen many people pull of a hard rock solo on an acoustic guitar but Jimmy Page killed it
Jimmy Page always killed it, my guitar hero! Always! 😊
He was even using a bottleneck I suppose. Starting off at around 2:20
ZiSt1989 yeah he did, I saw it too.
Pearl Jam Unplugged is really nice

This band doesn’t get old. I feel like I’ve listened to something new in the song, though I’ve heard it thousands of times

There isn't a Led Zeppelin song that is just okay.... that doesn't exist and there is no such thing! ❤ I love every album and every song
Wow, I didn't know Bonham sang. He did a great job on the harmonies!
I still love that he wrote a whole song about his puppy dog. That's something I would do.

I like to refer to this as Led Zeppelin's country music song. It is great just like all of their songs.
In 1975 Led Zeppelin was introducing rarely played songs like this one, on the setlist.
Jimmy is amazing! zeppelin was put on earth to show how music can be enjoyed forever! Best band by far in the Galaxy we live in,
Led Zeppelin pattented the hard rock "Accoustic Set" paving the way for rock bands in the 80's & 90's. if i could go back in time, this would be it
This is one of the rare Zep songs that I prefer live. Just jamming and having fun. Love it!
There are others like we're gonna groove, celebration day or sick again way better than the studio one if you want to check it out 😊
Lyrics:
Ah caught you smiling at me
That's the way it should be
Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine
Ah all the good times we had
I sang love songs so glad
Always smiling, never sad, so fine
As we walk down the country lanes
I'll be singing a song
Hear me calling your name
Hear the wind within the trees
Telling mother nature about you and me
Well if the sun shines so bright
Or on our way it's darkest night
The road we choose is always right, so fine
Ah can your love be so strong
When so many loves go wrong
Will our love go on and on
My, my, la de la, come on now it ain't too far
Tell your friends all around the world
Ain't no companion like a blue eyed merle
Come on now well let me tell you
What you're missing, missing, around them brick walls
So of one thing I am sure, it's a friendship so pure
Angels singing all around my door, so fine
Yeah, ain't but one thing to do spend my natural life with you
You're the finest dog I knew, so fine
When you're old and your eyes are dim
There ain't no old shep gonna happen again
We'll still go walking down country lanes
I'll sing the same old songs, hear me call your name
Thanks, Diego

My blue eyed merle rough collie Strider is at my feet listening to this tune with me. Yup - named him after the original blue eyed merle collie owned by Robert Plant. Even took a photo of him as a pup on my motorcycle (just like Robert did). Ain't nothing in this world like a blue eyed merle............Strider!!!!
Damn I'm jealous
Best band EVER !!!!
Indeed
i was born in 1975 but my soul was born in late 40s/early 50s for sure...would have loved to seen these guy live in concert back then and burn one with the band back stage.
Great way to start the day …
Right now I am seated but my mind is moving
I love the lyrics and the meaning behind them. Reminds me of walking down my own country lane with my first Labrador Retriever ❤
no words for how good this is
STRIDER!
woof!
Strider! Aragon II, son of Arathorn. Gotta love a song about your favourite dog.
Bron Yr Aur (breast of gold). I have driven past Bron Yr Aur many times over the years. As have many thousands and thousands of people without realising it. Just outside of the town of Machynlleth in North Wales. Historically important as the site of the first ever Senedd (Welsh parliament) under Welsh Prince, Owain Glyndwr.
Bron Yr Aur is set in beautiful surroundings. A place where Plant would holiday with his family as a child, and seek refuge from the stresses of touring later on in life. It must have been a source of great inspiration.
Show me at least one musician at these days who can make show like this.
Pure talents.
Jimmy - phenomenal guitarist
Robert - amazing voice
John Bonham - one of the best drummers (rock'n'roll)
John Paul Jones- great bass player.
I'm 28 and I listen to this legendary band almost everyday. Enjoy music 😎
And his no quarter is awesome
Reducing JPJ to "great bass player" is like saying Michaelangelo did that cool sculpture that one time. My man is a virtuoso of anything with strings or keys.
I’ll 2nd that, I will always worship page but JPJ is probably the most talented out of them all!
They always put 110% into what they did! Each song is an in depth experience!
i fucking love this song, the whole album is amazing.
A legendary performance by musical geniuses. ♥️
All their songs are unique its unbelivable.
I never get tired of listening to this live version of the song
Jimmy is STILL the man!
Talent like this is what makes music so much fun.
Feel the joy!
I can't express how much i love this song and Led Zeppelin rock on
Legendary song, probably the best led zeppelin song of all time
My 2 favourite s of all time . Border Collie and Led Zeppelin . Perfection
So Plants dog was a Border Collie? After 40yrs of listening to this song - I just learned today that this song is/was about his dog!! Now thanks to you, I know what KIND of dog it was!! Fantastic!! Thank You Very Much!! Cheers!!
THAT SONG SOUNDED ABSOLUTELY AMAZING WHEN THEY DID IN CONCERT❤❤❤ LED ZEPPELIN WAS THE ONLY BAND THAT I WAITED IN LINE FOR TICKETS THE FIRST DAY THEY CAME OUT❤❤❤❤
