At least the REAL ones do… While working together, they both met during Jimmy’s earlier, session musician days. He KNEW exactly who first to contact as the 1st official member, when forming Led Zeppelin. The perfect complimentary artist; a multi instrumentalist & easy going, team player personality! 🇨🇦
And when Ramble on plays in your mind, it is Jones bass line that is driving the song. A definite favorite, along with No Quarter and Jones keyboards. I think of him as a modern Bach or Mozart
I play the guitar and have a couple basses I like to noodle on. Often when I pick up my bass and start making up a bass riff, it starts sounding like the Ramble On bass line, so I have to change it so it's not too derivative, LOL.
@@eddiemilne4989Zep wasn’t the only English band of the 60’s/70’s was borrowed/plagurized songs. The Beatles were guilty of this too. Zep was worse I would grant you.
Jonesy has always been a giant in my understanding of Led Zeppelin. He could play two keyboards at once while his feet played bass on the keyboard bass pedal. He was/is an incomprehensible musical genius!
@@eddiemilne4989yeah but everybody has pinched or stolen from other artists so that comment would pertain to everybody so where do we go from here. It's the people led Zeppelin stole from did the same thing. I can show you songs from the 20s and 30s that Willie Dixon stole the entire lyrics from and put his name on it. You don't do your homework pal which kind of makes you look stupid. Come back in a year when you know what you're talking about
JPJ is the umami taste of Zeppelin’s songs: that inexplicable, powerful, deep, amazing feeling that enhances and values the work of this bandmates. No matter what instrument he’s playing, it’s always a pleasure to listen to him. I love listening to isolated bass and drum tracks from Zeppelin, especially WLL, it’s mind-blowing
Trying to pick a favorite Led Zeppelin song is like picking a favorite child. It can't be done really. I could do a top 25 maybe, but the order would change depending on the day & the mood. What is and What Should Never Be is highly underrated as is Ten Years Gone & For Your Life.
Been a Zeppelin fan my whole life. Impossible for me to pick a favorite because each member brought so much that was vital to Zeppelin's sound. John Paul Jones is talented beyond measure.With an ability to play any instrument he chose with equal skill. He surely deserves recognition as part of the reason Led Zeppelin was so successful.
Zeppelin were one of those rare bands where every member was equally important. None of them were replaceable. Any Zeppelin fan knows how important Jones was.
Thank you! I was about to fall asleep with all the overly described passion, skill and greatness of Jonesy and the Zeppelin music. To the writer: Yes, we know all of this already! What was 10 minutes and 13 seconds seemed like a lifetime. To sum up, you can point out Jonesy's qualities without all of the "gushing."
@@Mark-lq3sb Yeah, I hate when a video is supposed to let you know one particular thing about a musician, and decides to tell their whole life story before they get to it.
Jpj was the best musician in the band. Page, best songwriter, guitar parts and all, Bonham, amazing cohesive drummer, plus adding power, taste, Plant, icing on the cake. Love Zepp, all day.
4). Misty Mountain Hop. I stood fifteen feet away from Jones as he was setting up his keyboard during his Zooma tour. He was talking to another fan about piano. Robbie Knight from 103.5 the fox was there too. So I consider that I was hanging out with JPJ once. 😅
"What Is And What Should Never Be" is my favorite LZ song of all-time. It takes me back to a moment in time where me and my best friend were sharing some rolled herb with Led Zeppelin II in the cassette deck. Its a musical masterpiece.
As usual on TH-cam there are lots of “underrated” comments being thrown around here. Jonesy was never underrated. He was always understood to be a multi-instrumentalist and arranging genius. He simply didn’t seek the spotlight.
Very true. The "epicness" of zeppelin was unsurpassed and songs like Kashmir are the reason for that. Also immigrant song, song remains the same, Achilles last stand, no quarter, tangerine, battle of evermore...
My band covered _When The Levee Breaks,_ for a decade. At the right point of the evening it was a perfect course for the muwical meal and the audience would go into almost a trance. Plus we could stretch that song out for as long as we wanted. It was already a 7 minute song, but we could easily make it 10 or even 15 by simply giving our harmonica player a solo, our sax player a solo, and our keyboardest a Hammon B3 solo. We would usually end our second set with it, then spin Zep IV while we went and took a quick break.
When the levee breaks. A track that sounds ancient and apocalyptic. That’s because it is ancient. Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McKoy recorded it in 1929.
and it is apocalyptic BUT they took the original and stood it on its head, compare the original to "if it keeps on raining" on the reissued Coda and the version on IV all completely different
I stumbled upon "Zooma" at a Half-Priced Books and grabbed it unheard and LOVED it. The man is a very talented musician and not to ever be underestimated. Zeppelin was a force to be reckoned with as 4 men came together to produce some of the most memorable music of our times. RIP Bonzo.
The more I learned about this wonderful musician, the more I became convinced that he is the most talented musician to emerge from the British invasion.
Genius of the Zeppelin is also in how all 4 gears of its machine fit together perfectly. Without any one of them, LZ machine would never have worked so perfectly.
Glad I got to see Page (and his band) open for King Crimson in the early 2000's at the Tower Theatre in Upper Darby, PA on the Thunderthief tour. I had one of the worst head/chest colds I've ever had and I think the loud low end disintegrated all the phlegm allowing me to enjoy the show. I may never have gotten to see Zeppelin but I did get to see Page! I've never regretted going to that show but I would have had I not gone.
JPJ Bass playing is my favorite of the many Bassist's playing such as McCartney, Squire, Bootsy, and Wyman. However his virtuosity on certain Led Zep songs makes him stand out. One song that he really shows this unbelievable musicianship is "The Lemon Song", on Led Zep II. If there is one song of his I could learn, albeit I have a Rickenbacker, is this one. Give it a listen again and you will see why.
The demo for Levee called If it Keeps on Raining is on the extended CODA release and is both very different and very excellent. In this early version it is the bass which is front and center, the main instrument and his bass line is an amazing, very technical but bluesy and groovy.
I think I like "Kashmir" out of the Led Zeppelin songs mentioned here. I think my favorite Led Zeppelin songs are "Stairway To Heaven" and "Whole Lotta Love." Those songs were in a VH1 show that featured 100 Greatest Songs Of Rock And Roll. Those are the Led Zeppelin songs I'm most familiar with. "Stairway To Heaven" was in the top 3. The only songs higher were Rolling Stones "Satisfaction" and Aretha Franklin's song "Respect."
There was a time, back in the 1990s IIRC, JPJ said on a box set of CDS that he felt 'Hey Hey what can I Do' best represented Zeps capabililities. I took that as him saying it was his favorite Zep song. I was thrilled to hear him say it though because NO ONE that I can remember, over many decades, could place the song. That no doubt due to the fact that until this box set, it only appeared on the B side of their 'Immigrant Song' 45 RPM record which disappeared really fast once it was removed from the jukeboxes. In fact, I never heard it again until they re released it in the early 80s. It got widespread airplay on a new NYC radio station, WPLJ. Of course NO ONE remembered me raving about the song and telling them how great it was over the years. No matter, I and JPJ knew. As weird as it may sound, I felt like I had some kinship with him because of this., like our secret. I even got teased a little bit "Ah, he dreamt it, or 'hes hearing things'. Of course when it was re released none of those guys were still around. I still own several copies.
Jonesy is so comfortable in his own skin that he even hides his real last name. If you know you know. I love it when he picks up the mandolin and especially going to California on How The West Was Won my favorite version of that song. I also am a huge fan of Sick Again and Boogie with Stu. Zeppelin was so incredibly talented and open to exploring new sounds. I can't name a favorite Zeppelin song, I like them all but Achilles Last Stand is right there.
Every Led Zeppelin fan has heard "No Quarter" or "The Song Remains The Same" and, despite what others might say, JPJ helped make those two songs to sound like they do.
For a real surprise see if you can get hold of the 1990 record “Songs of Love and Death” by Red Byrd (Factory 366). It has three wonderful songs by JPJ under the title “Amores Passados” not sure how much of the arrangements are his or by Red Byrd but they are beautiful.
Let's not forget that "When the Levee Breaks" was written and recorded in 1929 by Kansas Joe McCoy & Memphis Minnie. Zep certainly took it to a whole other and amazing level, but it started as a country blues song about the 1927 Great Mississippi Flood.
JPJ was Led Zeppelins secret weapon. I seen him play mandolin on Going To California. I stood there staring it was unbelievable. He was really handsome too.
I believe bass players are usually more overlooked than other musicians. It’s usually the singers or guitarists who get all the attention, sometimes the drummer if he’s really good.
Every zeppelin fan knows how brilliant of a musician John Paul Jones is.
Led Zeppelin wouldn't be Led Zeppelin if any of the four weren't there. That's what happened. You are so right.
At least the REAL ones do…
While working together, they both met during Jimmy’s earlier, session musician days. He KNEW exactly who first to contact as the 1st official member, when forming Led Zeppelin. The perfect complimentary artist; a multi instrumentalist & easy going, team player personality!
🇨🇦
No question about it… 👍🏻
Yes. absolutely.... such talent!
Damn right!
"Ramble On" One of the most interesting and evocative bass lines ever laid down.
And when Ramble on plays in your mind, it is Jones bass line that is driving the song. A definite favorite, along with No Quarter and Jones keyboards. I think of him as a modern Bach or Mozart
Amen!
I play the guitar and have a couple basses I like to noodle on. Often when I pick up my bass and start making up a bass riff, it starts sounding like the Ramble On bass line, so I have to change it so it's not too derivative, LOL.
Agreed, but his bass lines throughout lemon song are highly underrated. Give it a listen!
@@ryanjones4150 I think it's the scale that song is played in. It's a natural , melodic, harmonic sound that transcends.
JPJ was the Swiss army knife of Led Zeppelin. Totally underrated
Underrated? Where do you get this from?
@@samgdpeGhe just learned that word the other day so he's throwing it around
great way to put it. without him, they are an average band
Thank you for giving credit to this wonderful musician. He is so brilliant on so many levels.
Brilliant at plagiarising other people's stuff too..Unlike their betters,the Beatles who stuck to their own material..
@@eddiemilne4989Zep wasn’t the only English band of the 60’s/70’s was borrowed/plagurized songs. The Beatles were guilty of this too. Zep was worse I would grant you.

John Paul Jones is a true master. He inspired millions of people . There will never be anyone like him.
some similarities between Jones and Getty Lee but Lee also sings. just the fact that they both play the bass with excellence and keyboards too.
Amazing, so humble and well rounded as a musician..an absolute genius.
No one who gains fame by often pinching other musicians material is humble..Humble gives credit ro those who deserve it,not fight them in court..
@@eddiemilne4989yeah but everybody has pinched or stolen from other artists so that comment would pertain to everybody so where do we go from here.

Always loved the bass in 'Hey, Hey, What Can I Do'. ...and as always, each member did such a brilliant job.
JPJ's bassline on The Lemon Song is phenomenal.
You noticed that too? That and Ramble On inspired me to learn the Bass back in the 70's.
Inspired stuff.
I honestly thought that song was going to
be on the list
JPJ is the umami taste of Zeppelin’s songs: that inexplicable, powerful, deep, amazing feeling that enhances and values the work of this bandmates. No matter what instrument he’s playing, it’s always a pleasure to listen to him. I love listening to isolated bass and drum tracks from Zeppelin, especially WLL, it’s mind-blowing
Working Load Limit is my favorite too
Beautifully put marcia, I agree with you!
Nicely noted … ‘ umami ‘
Trying to pick a favorite Led Zeppelin song is like picking a favorite child. It can't be done really. I could do a top 25 maybe, but the order would change depending on the day & the mood. What is and What Should Never Be is highly underrated as is Ten Years Gone & For Your Life.
Ten years gone is one of my top three .
@@briano.1503 Mine as well.
The bassists in many legendary rock groups were the glue to their success. I'd love to hear more about John Paul Jones. He deserves it.
Humble genius one of the best of all time,,Led Zepplin still relevant
The bass intro to How Many More Times, is one of the very best ever.
Most bands would love to have created a song that good, and yet in the world of LZ it goes mostly unnoticed.
@@cowslinger64 JPJ inspired me to learn the Bass when I was a teenager back in the 70's. How Many More Times was a joy to play!
Been a Zeppelin fan my whole life.
Impossible for me to pick a favorite because each member brought so much that was vital to Zeppelin's sound.
John Paul Jones is talented beyond measure.With an ability to play any instrument he chose with equal skill. He surely deserves recognition as part of the reason Led Zeppelin was so successful.
Without JPJ, there is no Led Zeppelin period, he was a quarter of the band and brought so much to the table, and made zeppelin sound so much better.
JPJ is one of a kind musician. His Bass playing matched Bonzo’s power to form the heaviest rhythm section in the history of Rock music.
He is always labeled underrated which isn’t true , his talent is well known the world over , especially amongst us fans
The man was and is a musical genius👍🤩
To say Jones isn't appreciated doesn't hold true among real Zeppelin fans. We all know that in many ways, he was the key to Led Zeppelin.
Agree 100%!
Well said.
Don't know why the narrator thinks JPJ is under appreciated. He's revered by most musicians and knowledgeable critics.
Because he's an AI narrator. I hate that lazy effort these creators attempt. You are totally correct about JPJ.
Yes, but that's the problem - musicians and knowledgeable critics may value him, but not enough others do.
He was Screwed Over by Page & Plant, WAKE UP!
Easy shill for a LedHead,
Like me 😊
Cuz it’s YT
Zeppelin were one of those rare bands where every member was equally important. None of them were replaceable. Any Zeppelin fan knows how important Jones was.

@@michaelharrington75 Just in case no one has noticed yet - this video was created by AI. You can tell it's AI because it sucks.
Off Topic about JPJ: I found out this year, he is STILL married to his one and ONLY wife!
Talented musician and a good 👍🏽 man!
Sonce 1967!
one of the longest lasting marriages in rock I’d say
Whiskers! 😮😮😮😮
And plant made fun of him for it years ago. Why they disrespected him on some noticeable occasions is a mystery to many LZ fans
@@clarkmacgowan5114 Yep! Just before he got together with JP and the rest to form Led Zeppelin!

Ramble On It Moves Me
Ramble on is a masterpiece, with an amazing bass line by J: P Jones
Jeez,I am pretty sure that JPJ can play twenty different instruments.
He has insane talents.
As usual on TH-cam there are lots of “underrated” comments being thrown around here. Jonesy was never underrated. He was always understood to be a multi-instrumentalist and arranging genius. He simply didn’t seek the spotlight.
Kashmir is the song that sets Zep apart from every other band save Floyd and Queen. Plant called Jones Zep's "secret weapon".
Very true. The "epicness" of zeppelin was unsurpassed and songs like Kashmir are the reason for that. Also immigrant song, song remains the same, Achilles last stand, no quarter, tangerine, battle of evermore...
Queen? 2nd division compard to Zep and Floyd.

JPJ is probably the most underrated genius in Rock and Roll
Grew up in the 70’s with Zeppelin and Sabbath being my favourites ⚡️
JPJ is the Secret Weapon and The Glue that held Zeppelin together!
I’m so glad he is finally getting recognized I’m learning now how talented he really is and I was a big zeppelin fan
A sign of a great band is the ability to amalgamate different influences on one album: Led Zeppelin succeeded in achieving that on every track.
I love humming JPJ’s bass lines as they were so melodic.
That's interesting and impressive.
Jonesy was always my favorite.The cornerstone of the band imo.👍👌
The more I learned about this wonderful musician, the more I became convinced that he is the most talented musician to emerge from the British invasion.
Genius of the Zeppelin is also in how all 4 gears of its machine fit together perfectly. Without any one of them, LZ machine would never have worked so perfectly.
"Tour Dates!! This is TOMORROW!!"
Glad I got to see Page (and his band) open for King Crimson in the early 2000's at the Tower Theatre in Upper Darby, PA on the Thunderthief tour.

A magnificent musician and a grand artist indeed,God Bless Brother !!!
When The Levee Breaks, Kashmir, and Stairway are my favorite three (closely followed by a bunch more).
As a 30 year amateur bass player, JPJ is my ABSOLUTE favorite to play along with using headphones. Man is a f'ing LEGEND!!
It is odd he doesn't pick Ramble on ... great bass line...
JPJ Bass playing is my favorite of the many Bassist's playing such as McCartney, Squire, Bootsy, and Wyman. However his virtuosity on certain Led Zep songs makes him stand out. One song that he really shows this unbelievable musicianship is
"The Lemon Song", on Led Zep II. If there is one song of his I could learn, albeit I have a Rickenbacker, is this one. Give it a listen again and you will see why.
I don't know any Zeppelin fan that doesn't know the value
or brilliance of JPJ
Very well done. If only more people can hear it the way. So well written this article.
Every time that I listen to them, I realize how much I have stolen, I mean, LEARNED, from JPJ as a bassist! He was the glue that held it all together!
JPJ was the dark horse of Led Zeppelin. I have 750 live bootleg Led Zeppelin cd`s he is very underrated and he was a very HUGE part of this band !
The demo for Levee called If it Keeps on Raining is on the extended CODA release and is both very different and very excellent. In this early version it is the bass which is front and center, the main instrument and his bass line is an amazing, very technical but bluesy and groovy.
Good insight, dynamics in arrangement and playing is the key yo musicality.
Is it just me or has JPJ aged like fine wine?
I think I like "Kashmir" out of the Led Zeppelin songs mentioned here. I think my favorite Led Zeppelin songs are "Stairway To Heaven" and "Whole Lotta Love." Those songs were in a VH1 show that featured 100 Greatest Songs Of Rock And Roll. Those are the Led Zeppelin songs I'm most familiar with. "Stairway To Heaven" was in the top 3. The only songs higher were Rolling Stones "Satisfaction" and Aretha Franklin's song "Respect."
Maybe Jones isn't fully recognized in the mainstream, but with Zep fans, he is highly regarded as a genius.
My favourite 3 songs as well.
Well, they are tied with about 30 others as well.
There was a time, back in the 1990s IIRC, JPJ said on a box set of CDS that he felt 'Hey Hey what can I Do' best represented Zeps capabililities. I took that as him saying it was his favorite Zep song. I was thrilled to hear him say it though because NO ONE that I can remember, over many decades, could place the song.

So glad this was produced. JPJ is the glue of the band. A more brilliant duo of Bonzo and he, it would be hard to find. Love his work.
Extremely versatile musician
The GREATEST rock band of all time!!!
KASHMIR/IN MY TIME OF DYING/ACHILLES LAST STAND/IN THE LIGHT/CAROUSELAMBRA/NOBODY'S FAULT BUT MINE/FOR YOUR LIFE/BLACK DOG/THE CRUNGE....
JPJ is pure genius!! I'm so happy to have been born on his birthday! 😊
So how young will you be this Friday, and are you on the west side or east side of the Atlantic?
He is my favourite member of Led Zeppelin,
And a beautiful human being
Jonesy is so comfortable in his own skin that he even hides his real last name. If you know you know. I love it when he picks up the mandolin and especially going to California on How The West Was Won my favorite version of that song. I also am a huge fan of Sick Again and Boogie with Stu. Zeppelin was so incredibly talented and open to exploring new sounds. I can't name a favorite Zeppelin song, I like them all but Achilles Last Stand is right there.
For me, it's The Song Remains The Same. The energy of it, is infectious! JPJ's bass playing is fantastic and complements Bonhams killer drum part.
John Paul Jones is a flipping genius!
Oddly enough those are my three favorites, too
Yep. When The Levee Breaks oozes atmosphere. You can feel the humidity.
A brilliant musician who didn't want the rockstar lifestyle.
Every Led Zeppelin fan has heard "No Quarter" or "The Song Remains The Same" and, despite what others might say, JPJ helped make those two songs to sound like they do.
He should’ve picked No Quarter … it’s one of the most beautiful and brilliant work he did on Zepp either live or in the studio
For a real surprise see if you can get hold of the 1990 record “Songs of Love and Death” by Red Byrd (Factory 366). It has three wonderful songs by JPJ under the title “Amores Passados” not sure how much of the arrangements are his or by Red Byrd but they are beautiful.
Just listen to the keyboard magic John Paul Jones did on ''Thank You'' LZ 2 album
Still the greatest hard rock band and more 🤘
Also, lets not forget his producer skills. He produced fabulous music for The Misssion UK and Heart among others.
The greatest band in the history of both Rock AND Roll
Three great picks for his favorites. JPJ is not underestimated in my eyes.
He was vital to Led Zeppelin. And so where all the other members. They were perfect.
Real fans know. He’s a real genius. And a class act.
JPJ is incredible 🙌 great video
Let's not forget that "When the Levee Breaks" was written and recorded in 1929 by Kansas Joe McCoy & Memphis Minnie. Zep certainly took it to a whole other and amazing level, but it started as a country blues song about the 1927 Great Mississippi Flood.
JPJ was Led Zeppelins secret weapon. I seen him play mandolin on Going To California. I stood there staring it was unbelievable. He was really handsome too.
In the Shadows for ALL the Music that was Produced He was The Glue that made Led Zeppelin the Power Force It Became ! ❤❤❤
JPJ will ALWAYS land on my best bassists list!
He was and is Brilliant in all he has done. How ever Led Zeppelin would not be if any one of them was not there from the beginning.
Totally agree. He didn’t want to be in the spotlight.
John Paul Jones will always be my favourite member of Led Zeppelin.
John Paul Jones...was the most talented of them all
I believe bass players are usually more overlooked than other musicians. It’s usually the singers or guitarists who get all the attention, sometimes the drummer if he’s really good.
John Paul, you were underestimated ❤
I loved their concert
Hard to pick a top 3 but 1) Whole Lotta Love -arguably the beginning of hard rock. 2) Ten Years Gone 3) Kashmir
Well, said brother!
Great bass line in What Is and What Should Never Be.
My top 3 fave Zep songs as well :)
