"was there a leader?" " jimmy smiles and waits for someone else to answer, proudly
Yeah, early on JP was the leader because he had gained cred in something called the Yardbirds
Kai Thongsavanh he also got at the rights to the Yardbirds name and built LZ himself.
Jimmy was the leader from the beginning til now. No question about it. That's part of the reason Plant had issues with the reunions.
It was jimmy page's band from the start from the "new yard bird" days and hunting for a new singer frontman "Plant".
@@kaithongsavanh3649 Kai, You are just a little mistaken! But we can adjust that easily!! First. Jimmy has Always Been & Remains the Leader of Led Zepp!!
Prior to that he was in The Yardbirds!! Another Phenominal Band!! You mentioned "he had cred from something called the yardbirds".
That one gave my a laugh!! I thought it was cute but it definately showed
Your youth!! I felt the need to give you some helpful information!! See, they have Always been one of My Favorite Bands, All My Life!! Also, just a suggestion, you should check out The Yardbirds music!! You would probably enjoy a lot of it!! I love when younger people love great music!! Oh, almost forget to tell you something else important!! Before Jimmy played with the Yardbirds, he really earned his music creds working as a studio musician!! Cool piece of info!!
Back in 1994, my friend and I pulled into a petrol station in Kidderminster UK to fill up the car. Next to us was a vintage Mercedes 320 with a beautiful lady sitting waiting patiently. Filling the Mercedes with petrol was Robert Plant!! I and my buddy were lost for words, we were like little children seeing Santa. I spoke to Robert and said what a pleasure it was to meet him. We spoke for over 20mins about music, life and what was happening with his work. It was like talking to an old friend i hadn't seen in a year or two. He asked where we were going and i said we were headed back to our work in Halesowen. His reply was to ask if we fancied a pint and some lunch. We spent the next 3hrs or so in conversation with this guy. I will remember those 3hrs for the rest of my days. We parted with no autographs or 'selfies', just a memory of lunch with a legend and his lady. Plus, he paid!!
How lucky you are !
WOW, seeing this comment a year later and just what an amazing experience and memory! I'm on a youtube kick watching videos! These guys will be studied like Beethovan and Bach!
@@sandrazed6089Oh I envy you…you are going to take such a ride discovering Zeppelin in all their glory! I heard the song Kashmir when I was a teenager in the 80s, from one of Zep’s albums and I was lost, down the rabbit hole. 😊 They are EPIC! Have a grand time!
Wow how exciting for you
warms my heart to know things like this can happen
Interviewer: Was there a leader?
Led Zeppelin: 🤨 😐 😏
😄😄
😎👍
LMAO 😂that’s exactly how they looked 🤣
IMHO John Paul Jones was the real genius. Plant one of the greatest singers of all time, Jimi one of the best guitarists, and Bonzo the greatest drummer... but JPJ really did some magic... He made all of them that much better, but no one really cares about the bass and the backing stuff... but that is the most important part.
Jonsey, "... when I went onstage I didn't think oh, I'm going show everybody how good I am, I thought I'm going to show everybody how good Led Zeppelin was." Word.
Yeah; he never was a big talker, but when he says something it has value. A good quality. (Nowadays lots of people are talking all the time, but never say anything.)
Zep was a band where great talent, friendship, musical knowledge and understanding and great improvisation ability came together at the same level of all members. What are the odds for this to ever happen again...
They’re really right when they say they could never replace Bonham, no one could fill any of their shoes
It's 1980 and I finally got front row seats to see Led Zeppelin live. I'm 29 years old and I'm feeling like I just met Santa Claus for the first time. I'm driving a truck down I-95 listening to WMMR when the announcement of John Bonham's death come on. I pulled over to the side of the road and cried the same way I did when my Dad past away when I was 12. For whatever reason I got out of the truck,sat on the railing and just couldn't stop crying. A cop pulled up and asked me if I was OK and I looked at him and said John Bonham died.He put his hand on my back and said I'd be alright. I got back in my truck and drove home and this cop followed me the whole time to make sure I got home safely. Since then every September I'd think of John Bonham and John Whittle the cop who followed me home.
Story touched my heart. All the best to you.
Philly Baby!!
My brother told me at home upstairs on our second floor. I automatically knew it was a huge loss although I was only 13 yrs old.
I cried like that for Kurt and Joey Ramone.
Some moments really touch our lives
Love how Robert said "these guys are my buddies and soul partners " probably the tightest band I've seen.
You have to have been in a band to understand.
What? c'mon dude the Grateful Dead.....lmao. Seriously I'm not serious. Zeppelin rules and always will.
Only band I can think of that’s closer is Rush. Love Zep though.
Their supernatural deal ran out!!!
@@100Aces Lol.
Robert Plant's speaking voice has tremendous clarity and projection. It's no wonder he's such a phenomenal singer.
The greatest of the great.
@@joshjones8924 beat me to the punch because I was about to say the exact same thing.
Just an old man now
@@nancydavis4618so what are you trying to say yeah he's 75 years old now everyone gets old
@@nancydavis4618🤮🤮🤮TROLL
surprised Plant didnt walk out of this interview. Rose was hounding him for 10 mins about not doing a reunion tour
And now we know why Zeppelin hated being interviewed. No one gets them.
Because few can truly understand geniuses.
More importantly they get themselves .
THEY HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO GET TIRED OF ANSWERING... WHY DIDNT U GO ON... U CANT CAUSE U LOST THE BEST DRUMMER EVER...EVER...
My favorite band of all time... they don't need to say anything.
Robert Plant is so intelligent and it must be excruciating for him to hammer an idea into a nitwit like Rose.
John Paul Jones is the most underrated rock star ever!!! What a GEM
No,not underrated. He is LZ.
The glue that kept them together. He is to LZ what George Harrison was to that other great phenomenon
Not everyone knows that Jones was a big in demand session player like Page was before Led Zeppelin.
Such a humble guy
Agreed! 😊
Jonesy is usually the quiet one, but he’s definitely a giant of Led Zeppelin. It’s almost impossible to believe that these four phenomenal musicians found each other. We have to thank God for allowing that to happen. Imagine how great it would have been to see John Bonham continue with his mates.
JPJ is the main force behind
"In through the Outdoor."
Sadly the stress of constantly touring and John being away from his Family made his drinking progressively worse. Only the best ones die young!
Rather thank Satan, based on stories told about LZ, esp Page...
That’s what make Zep the best band of all time. They all were giants.
And even though they are no longer playing together, they are all still phenomenal musicians.
JP Jones is the most British human in the history of British humans
David fuckin Gilmour
😂
No, I am.
Bean
No, that would be Winston Churchill.
I honestly find Robert Plant such a warm loveable person, I’d love to be his friend

"When I went on stage I didn't think 'oh Im gonna show everybody how good I am'. I thought 'Im gonna show how good Led Zeppelin was"
-jpj
I got a ton of respect for all 3 of them when John Bonham died..They stayed in Jason Bonham's life..
3:49 "was there a leader?" *semi-awkward silence because everyone is screaming in their heads, Jimmys little wise-ass smirk and look over to the the rest of the band* 😂😂😂 Pagey is my favourite person alive.
His reaction was kind of cute 🤣🤣🤣
Well said! He's the coolest rock guitarist EVER!!!
Robert Marchese
I think so, he made the best riffs ever!
Such a band !
Page produced the albums in the studio. The first album was insane as he was looping shit and doing backward somersaults with things that were never even thought of before.
Page was looking for a singer for his new band, so in essence he made the band, but I cannot imagine how it must have been somewhat difficult to to shine on stage like the Adonis singing genius Plant, hahaaaa...but he did, the beauty of Zeppelin was as Page alluded to here, they all shined which had to be difficult, for the only way to shine in this dual dichotomy of bass & drums and front man & lead guitarist, is to not try to shine, which paradoxically resulted in them all shining.
Led Zeppelin was in charge when they finally figured it all out, but no Page, no Zeppelin.
Plant said in the past, what happen normally was that Page brought compositions he wrote to the others. The other band members would play (and Plant adding lyrics would sing) doing their thing adding their parts. I think Page was the normal "leader" primarily because he, not only formed the band, but wrote most all of their music from the start.
Backin the early eighties I played piano at a private party in Hassocks just outside Brighton. Jimmy was in the front row of the audience. I was also turning pages for another performer when I dropped the final sheet. Jimmy quickly picked it up and handed it to me just in time. Later, we chatted and he was a real gentleman, lovely guy. Subsequently, he invited us to his beautiful house when he lived at Plumpton Place. They were engineering Robert’s vocals at Jimmy’s in-house studio. I remember there were guitars everywhere in the house. They were very special times for me and will always be grateful to him for his hospitality.
Robert sounds a little surprised people remember their music. What a humble man. But who could ever possibly forget Led Zeppelin? Once you’ve heard them it’s impossible to.
He should have been knighted by Queen..
Maybe he will be one day.
It’s crazy how old the music is yet it still is so good.
They had something many artists these days do not. Soul. And they had it in spades. Correction: they still have it.
Re ee
Www

As
Amazing to think everyone in this band individually is considered one of the greatest musicians that have ever lived. What a collection of talent…
Ever lived? Can you even name two guitarists before the 18th century ? What about single drummer?
"Bonzo got some extra money for driving the van and I got some penicillin", what a sense of humor!
The true genius never talks.
It wouldn't be an interview if there was no talking.
Alexis Rosales Ruiz Unfortunately true
Jimmy page was the genius
Alexis Rosales Ruiz can't remember who first coined this phrase. Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt. Now that anyway I think him a fool but you get the point.
John Paul Jones is a saint...
The critics may not have liked you, but by god the rest of us begged to differ! Pure genius.
Robert Plant once said " Its not that we think we are the best band in the world. Its just that we are better than whoever is number two.
Maybe...but I would say Beatles, Zep, Floyd then whoever else you like after those 3.
@@michaelbyrd7883 for me Zeppelin and Floyd are better than the Beatles
@@OctopusEars Music's like any art it's subjective. To me the Beatles started it all meaning the dawning of great rock/pop rock/art rock they were completely original and I don't know any band that evolved more then the Beatles, like the Shakespeares of rock. Zeppelin was always a smokin hot rock band and Floyd was always a great creative force. When Syd Barrett could no longer play and Gilmour joined they became out of this world and Zeppelin 3 was a beautiful acoustic album. However the Beatles from the 1st album to Abbey Road, White album, Sgt. Pepper all big leaps in creativity and originality, but I see where you're coming from.
I think the quote was actually “it’s just how much better we are than whoever comes next” as in future bands to come, not ones that have already reached stardom
I think I like LZ best but, Rubber Soul changed music in playing, writing and recording! The second version of the Beatles 66-70 took it down a different road… then came Zeppelin
Title should be *Led Zeppelin answers loaded questions in a mature manner*
The first question, right out of the gate, is nudging them to acknowledge their gratitude that the government of a country other than their home is giving them an award. And I can't blame them if they don't seem entirely excited in their answer.
@@sheatiller2465 Yeah and how stupid. They don't owe anyone anything for being given an award that they earned.
Thats the truth...and It seems they always have
Robert had a look on his face and vibe like "oh, so they think Charlie Rose is charming and innocent enough to have him ask us this tired old shit?"
Why was he harping on Bonzo so much. Clearly they didn’t wish to re visit the tragedy again
The three former members of Zep were real gentlemen to Charlie Rose's verbally awkward, flailing galoot. I cringed at his questions, but took delight in the measured, mature responses.
I love it when Jimmy tells Rose, “wait a minute, wait a minute.” Basically he was saying, I’m going to talk now, so shut up. ✌️🤪🎸🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶
Go, JImmy, lol! Man, all these anti-Rose comments (justified, I am sure! Rose is a blabbermouthed pretentious f*ck in many ways!) make me think i prolly won't even watch it--dont wanna cringe too much! WHich is waht i also did on these three legends' behalf when Alan Hunter of MTV interviewed them --i think it was right after Live Aid--just like dumb, awkward questions, not being cool, etc. Rose shoulda kept his mouth shut more often. And his Robe!
Careful with this. The only reason you can hear this great band break decorum is because an equally great interviewer was sitting accross from them and pushing. You think you want a microphone and the band only locked in a room and that would get the best out of them, but it takes a talented and equally seasoned interviewer who can give and also garner an equal level of respect to ask the right questions but also know how to allow for the interaction to happen. I love the "wait a minute..." moment as well but it's not the antagonistic moment y'all making it out to be.
@@keneola -I saw Zeppelin’s last American concert in Oakland. Saw Jimmy 5 or 6 more times, so I’m more interested in listening to him not Rose!
I love how humble these men can be even when they know they are the best rock band in history

@@michaelbyrd7883 AH! AH! Beatles aren't a 'Rock' Band they are 'Pop' mate
@@buzzinbritain8222 Semantics fella, the top 3 BANDS Beatles, Zep, Floyd are we cool?
@@michaelbyrd7883 No way, you have no concept of what a 'rock' band is - and the Beatles weren't it .......... wouldn't be in first place either, much too overrated and not talented enough, absolutely crap band live.... more talent in Jimmy Page's knob end than the whole of the Beatles.
They are proper Brit intellectuals.
I love Robert Plant so much. How respectful and tender..
His (Robert Plant) demeanor reminds me so much of my late husband. So I would definitely want to be his friend.
Yes, Robert is a true Poet in his own write!
I love u too..
Let me first state - Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock n' roll band in history. That said, Charlie Rose was far too pressing. The members seemed uncomfortable and reluctant to answer his endless, super-fan, stream of questioning. They didn't want to continue after the 2007 performance, simple. Let it go. The band owes us nothing. Bringing up Robert Plant's son's death?... You could see Robert's heart sink. Charlie Rose had no gauge on this interview or when to lighten up and switch topics.
You could see the anguish in Robert's eyes...very gracious soul.
This is before Charlie's own demise from the public eye. He had his own inner problems, with his sex scandal. Looking at him in this interview you see the arrogance, as he thought he escaped his own issues.
Charlie Rose was..and always will be a pompous entitled creepy old man still trading on a never deserved reputation.
Zepplin should have gotten up in disgust.
Haha don't let me interview them I would confront these idiots on why they chose satan as their master when that caused deaths of plants baby they r the ultimate jerk offs not to denounce satanism
Miguel McKenzie I agree, however Charlie had some of the best guests ever, I was hooked on his show, watched it from very near its beginning. I am still pissed he was abusing his staff etc. He really f..ked up. No one has stepped in yet to really replace his show. I think he is on a podcast or something but I cannot think of looking for it, I am still so pissed at his elitist actions that brought the end of his PBS then Bloomberg/PBS show.
Everyone knows they'll never be another Led Zeppelin. It was a magical chemistry. The reunion in 2007 and incredible concert shows that these musicians were the real deal. ❤
Charlie Rose's ego got in the way, here, haranguing about why this and why that? I love JPJ's response, "is a tour really good for music?" And watching Plant's graceful response to his mention of his son's death brought tears. Not just great musicians, but great guys overall. I still remember my first time hearing Stairway to Heaven. Even my dad appreciated it. Thanks for this great interview, loved it.
Rose wouldn't them think about an answer. He just kept interrupting. So annoying
13:07 "Time gallops now..."
That's a very sharp observation.
So I'm not the only one who feels it...
There is definitely something going on there. I thought I was just feeling the hands of time pulling at me, but I'm hearing others feel that time is speeding up somehow. Perhaps due to the expanding universe.....
WoW ~ back in the day Bonzo was their designated driver...must of been a wild ride
Explains why he started drinking so much to get out of the job lol
He loved cars. Jimmy can't drive.
Must have. Not must of.
In the beginning, Bonzo did it for the xtra pay....dont forget, Plant and Bonham were on a salary
😂 I was thinking the same. They picked the worst driver when it comes to DUI.
That reunion with Jason was for John's son. I think he been longing to man the drum kit while his dad's band performed, just like John. For that moment in time, that concert, Jason was channeling his dad. It was for Jason. Thanks Jimmy, Robert, and Paul♪♫
You have to admire the patience of John, Robert and Jimmy at times in this interview... the interviewer really pokes them for a reaction..
In the mid to late 70's, when I was in high school, the process of buying concert tickets was to literally "camp out" in line on the sidewalk and into the parking lot in front of an Orange Julius cafe, at an outdoor mall, in St. Louis, not for hours -- but for days! A few of us would always go -- always among the first in line -- no matter what rock band -- to buy tickets (Pink Floyd, Rush, Styx, Yes, REO, Genesis, and yes Led Zeppelin). Day and night 24-7 for 2-3 days I camped out waiting for first dibs to buy tickets close to the stage. In 1980, it was Zeppelin coming to town. I got 2 seats on the 3rd row. Bonham died right before that concert. The show was cancelled. Ticket costs were reimbursed. I remember feeling shell shocked. The concert of a lifetime; with seats so close to the stage. Part of me died at that time too because they were "my band" ... I admire these 3 guys who so loved that drummer as a person, they disbanded rather than go on without him. What an incredible honorable act.
MUSINGS AND MORE only two people gave you thumbs up after 3 months. That is sad as you express much more in your short paragraph than the guy who did the interview. The best thing he did was his apology to the women who attacked him in a gang. It was sincere and honest and acquitted him. But I know nothing about him except this one interview and if only he had used his skills at apologising in the interview situation he would have been more successful.
What Americans seem to miss altogether and sadly too is the ability to be humble. Jimi Hendrix is the only man (and Giant Sand's Howe Gelb) I can think of who contradicts this. That is why they have not been more successful around the world and remains the reason why Americans are so often despised all over the world - their arrogance.
Musings and More well said.
Musings and More I had seen Zeppelin once before, but for the '80 concert my experience mirrors yours. Waited hours (not days) to get tickets but when Bonham died shortly before hitting Detroit I was destroyed. The guy was my personal drumming hero. Still remember how badly I felt when I heard the news. These guys were my absolute heroes.
And then John Lennon not much later. On the heels of losing Keith Moon and Skynyrd going down. I hated the late 70s going into 1980.
Never would have been the same, Nor respectful of the deceased. I, like the world, Cryed like a baby that day they announced Bonzo’s horrible death. LONG LIVE The Might LED Zeppelin!!!!
🤘 Rock ON😇😎🎶🎵🔥💥🌪⚡️🎸🎹🎼🎤🥁
Mentioning car accident and kid's death is disrespectful and irrelevant...
Rose wa bakko no sto!
Agreed. Rose screwed up this interview.
Why is it irrelevant? It shows the tragedy of what Robert went thru, and why he was really growing tired of being in a band with a couple of druggies/alcoholics that weren't in top form any longer. His accident and son dying really made him question if he wanted to keep doing it. Apart from that, IMO, Zeppelin were really over in '76/'77. Yea, there were a few decent songs on "In Through the Out Door", but Page and Bonham were a mess. Especially Jimmy. His playing really went downhill. Zeppeling SHOULD have called it quits after Robert's son died, or at least those two should have used that time to clean themselves up. Just my opinion of course.
@Crazy Canuck What's nonsense? If you are going to reply, at least reply to something specific.
@Crazy Canuck It's common knowledge, and were also huge moments in Roberts life that lead him to start questioning being in the band. Should he not have brought up Bonham's death either, especially for JPJ who, along with Benji Lefevre, actually found John dead?
He didn't have to bring up Robert's loss of his son, crass interviewer
one of the worst interviewers i’ve seen lmao
Plant deserved it. He's a pretentious poser and a talks too much.
100% agree. Such bad taste and unnecessary.
Sometimes it helps. One doesn't want to think the child is forgotten. That's not crass.
@@jackiepowell7513 I doubt anyone who has lost a child ever forgets him/her. I’m sure Robert thinks of his son everyday and he does not need reminding by a journalist in the middle of an interview.
As tragic as it was, they absolutely did the right thing by disbanding after John's death. May he be resting in peace. ❤
'Was there a leader among you?' Jimmy's smart ass smile 😂😂😂
Robert: *Few seconds pause* 'Well Jimmy was in charge' lol.
Robert so full of grace always
I will never forget Knebworth 79 when they played Kashmir. The hairs on my neck stood up it was amazing. No band will ever be the same.
Oh this is so great, you were present there? Please reply me 😁
The likes of which salt not walk this Earth again.
*the neck hairs of course being the litmus test for any great artistic rendering..
Second show Knebworth Kashmir was truly epic the sound was electric the crowd was great ahhh the memories ❤️
@3:50. “Was there a leader?” Silence. Yes there was. His name is Jimmy Page. He had a vision and changed the course of the music scene forever.
These guys are so poetic, just in an interview alone the way they express their history as a band you can really just put yourself in their shoes for a moment and imagine (or try to anyways) the magical moments they shared. Led Zeppelin man I tell ya
There really aren’t enough words or the right words to describe it. Right? I know what you mean.
Not gonna lie man, don't think that question about Karac was necessary, I teared up more than Robert did but you could tell he knew that was a low blow...
Heartbreaking to watch that. So unnecessary
There will never be a band like led zepplin. They broke the mold after this band.
The 2 best bands of all time that will be great forever are Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd. Every album from start to finish were great. Not just a couple songs, ALL of them!
Such gentlemen.
Plant's present music is still great and he's leaving the past behind where it must remains. The greatest rock band
I like how when he asked if there was a leader, and Jimmy is all smiling like, "yeah it was me" lmao
Lmao? Really?
Christopher Jones 3:54
Well, he was.
Jimmy was right, many bands - the great ones - told them they were the best!
The fucking smirk lmaooooo
I see such sadness in Roberts eyes. No matter what has happened now..They will always be the gods of Rock and Roll..forever.
Agree.
@@TheRoomfull lost his child then bonham...that don't leave.
@@allencollins6031 Again...agreed.
True. Plus, he's the reason this band didn't continue on at any point
@Logan Bremerman Incorrect...John Bonham passing away is the reason the band didn't continue on at any point.
I find Robert Plant to be so lovely in interviews. Charlie Rose was out of line bringing up the death of his child.
John Paul made me cry, spoken like a true bass player and worthy of my idolatry! No matter how cool every other part is, I always find my self bouncing back to the incredible bass lines. Thank you sir for inspiring me to try my hand at bass!
A band is only as good as their rhythm section. Hard to surpass the rhythm section of Zeppelin. Some of my favorite JPJ bass moments on record are the bass in the intro of the tune Song Remains the Same and the whole bass track of Carouselambra. Such an understated and yet driving bass player..
Plus John handled keyboards and added a fantastic hand on the synthesis front. Great band!
@@mickdestiny6542 ABSOLUTELY!!!
If God created a band better than Led Zeppelin he kept them for himself.
That's great! 😍
Larry's tunes Wow! Beautifully said 👏🏾
@@miguelmckenzie248 Thanks brother. We agree that it is true 👊
Larry's tunes AMEN.
There must be a band that are/were better than Zeppelin,but I'm at a loss to think of one...
So much talent in this room. They changed the music we listened to forever. There are probably 50 people in human history that can make that claim.
I hate that question about being the 'best.' It's art Charlie, it goes deeper than better, worse, best.
JIMMY STAYS SO YOUNG LOOKING. HE ALWAYS HAD A BEAUTIFUL SMILE.
The mighty Led Zepplin, their music will be playing as long as there are people on the planet.
Get all the remastered led Zep CD's , in your car, and enjoy driving again. You can hear each musician doing magic.
As opposed to the original LPs which are what? Besides what made them known throughout the entire world. Reissues are made by record companies to print more money. You buy them you're a fool. Go to a record shop and buy the original albums or at least the 1980s pressed CDs before they were compressed to death. THEN tell me what they sound like.
@@junkboxhero4825 or just find them online and don't spend your money
Exactly what I did. My car stereo has a "jukebox" that records the CDs I play. My goal is to have all albums of Zep in it.
@@junkboxhero4825 what record stores would even have them? I'd think they'd sell SO fast!! I get what you're saying but good odds they'd be well worn. How many scratches? But yeah, that would be amazing to have all their albums, original vinyls.
@@SunnyD420 they deserve to be paid. I can't support that. The sound quality won't do justice either.
I love when Jimmy says "Sometimes it's two, sometimes it's three, and sometimes it all four" fantastic and well said. P.S.> John Paul Jones ends it so well with..."I'm not going on show who I am, I'm going on to show who Led Zeppelin are."
I saw Zeppelin twice, they were special. Zep had a sound I have never heard before, just musical brilliance.
Robert Plant, so timelessly handsome
Yes, if only Britain had a clear sweep of granite, like Mt. Rushmore, carve his face upon it. Perhaps Yorkshire??
@@swithinbarclay4797 haha that is far too un-British
@@dejavu2752 : Well, at any rate, I do hope that The Queen (with the help of some other British Notable, to Nominate, to Her Majesty), does deign to confer Knighthood, upon M'rs. Page, Plant, and Jones. I believe that Knighhoods/Damehoods, are bestowed upon highly exemplary Britons? Jimmy Page is especially deserving, for his outstanding out-in-the-field philanthropy/work, with Brazilian homeless children. Another man that is especially deserving, is Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi.
Amen girl!! Still sooo sexy
So is Jimmy
Did Robert say he got some "penicillin" as a perk! hahaha!! Classic Zeppelin line!!!
I'm glad I'm not the only person who picked up on that one lmaooo.
Lol he's funny
I must be dense cause I don't get it
Interviewers never seem to catch his wit. He’s hilarious if you’re paying attention!
Classic Zeppelin line? What?
What incredible and genuine humility. They made Charlie’s imploring narcissism look silly, as it should. Incredible.
Agreed 😊😊
You guys performed the most addictive, exciting, fun and purely entertaining music of that era. I’m 68 and still play your first 3 lp’s loud, and love it. Especially driving on the highway. My memories of that time are fine.
That's awesome!
Why is the interviewer so aggressive towards them? also bringing up Plants sons death was heartless.
Journalist are usually heartless
Charlie Rose just wasn't that hip. His overbearing ego and the later revealed treatment of women really colors this interview in interesting ways. Recognizing 'Hype' in modern entertaining , in public life, in our businesses and institutions, is so fogged up and so distorts our humanity. Great band, great music, but the phenomenon just wasn't that meaningful, was it?
Dude he is a journalist.. Larry King would have done the same. It's their profession...
So hurtful
Charlie Rose is a jerk. He was hoping he could upset them by badgering them with rude and insensitive questions. They all handled it with dignity and grace. Good for them and shame on him.
3 left of 4 geniuses and gentlemen...... I’m so sad that I wasn’t old enough to have seen them in concert. Damn they were powerful 🚀
It's OK go see Robert anyways you can, he will not disappoint it's not Led Zep, but it is because the legacy of the man is just there he's one of the greatest singers of all time and he will put on 1 hell of a show I guarantee it, remember he's 75 years old now so don't wait too long to see him, I going to see 8/20/2022 in Lake Tahoe, this will be 8 times I've seen Robert Plant super excited to see him again. I saw him on Principle of Moments Tour 83' Now & Zen 88' Manic Nirvana 90' Fate of Nations 92' Unledded Tour with Jimmy Page both dates in Sacramento CA 95' Walking into Clarksdale Tour with Jimmy Page 98' go see him before it's too late!!!!! 😎😎😎😎😎😎😁
@@deanjones9082 thank you. I saw him at the Beacon in NYC.
@@shivapejman8155 glad you got see him, he's still an amazing performer, I 'll see him again 8/20/2022 at Harvey's outdoor Amphitheater Lake Tahoe, NV ...... super excited for this show, the man is almost 75 yrs old, & still performing, a god amongst men, this is going to be the best birthday present I could expect at 60. This show is 2 days after my 60th bday..... too cool, the man is my idol.
Saw Robert with Allison Krause at Red Rocks, Sept 1st. When they played, ‘ When the Levee Breaks’, it was magical.
without a doubt the most humble band members
Robert Plant: "And the worst thing in the world with music is to keep it going identical forever and ever..."
Hip-Hip: Keeps going identical forever and ever...
Conclusion: Robert Plant is right.
Poor Jonesie looks like he doesn't want to be there.
He doesn't want to be there for sure. Charlie keeps trying to create strife within them and Robert put him straight. How tacky to bring up the loss of Robert's son.
He’s VERY private
They're not used to being interviewed.
Some cruel questions, respect to Robert for not reacting
I think also what makes Zeppelin absolutely so great is you can listen to their music recorded 50 years ago and it still sounds fresh, new & bombastic, explosive.... no band currently sounds like Led Zeppelin, people say Gretta Van Fleet. To me the they're Nickolodeon's version of Zeppelin, they're going through the motions. You just can't duplicate Robert Plant's voice. Pages Playing, "Bonzo" The GOAT John Henry Bonham, John Paul Jones, music they're belongs in a time capsule too show explorers just who Zeppelin was, the world will never be the same... The Greatest Band of All Time
More like Charlie rose enjoying listening to himself with led zeppelin as a captive audience.
What a loyal band of brothers, their loyalty to Bonzo is unquestionable. All for one and one for all!
It tickles me that page was like "yea,we were the best" lol classic....But true....
You can see in Robert's eyes that he is still hurt about losing Bonzo
John Paul Jones is the ultimate quiet achiever
There are great bands.. then there’s Led Zeppelin 🔥
The BEATLES, tho
Beatles, Floyd
@@mrsmacca126 Not in the same league. Zeppelin is in a league of their own.
I absolutely adore JPJ, such a class act! They are SO ultraprogressive, that’s why they endure. I love LZ! They kept me going during dark times. 💜
I was 15 when I heard Immigrant Song, and I had never heard of this band. But I was hooked from that moment on. When I bought the vinyl, the clerk asked if this was for my parents or older sibling. I said it was for me. Then I started singing the immigrant song and he finally believed me.
Immigrant song is the one I put on a playlist if I feel listening to Led Zep
There is no question it is beyond a shadow of a doubt that this is the greatest rock and roll band of all time. Nobody even came close.
AC/DC, Van Halen, Lynyrd Skynyrd
Great bands. Amateurs compared to Zeppelin.
@@zezegambles of those three arguably, Lynyrd Skynyrd had the best musicians. Considering the full body of work from both, it’s Led Zeppelin still.
im outnumbered on this post because its a video about zep@@jnl8389
I love their confidence, & the displaying of humility each member showed. Glad I was able to see them in concert.
Don’t always see confidence and humility in such a beautiful balance like we do with them
The best rock band ever. Many great ones but they were the best.
Always the best still are (1977 fell in love 2 great men Robert plant, jimmy page,)
JW They certainly give a great interview here,obviously very educated people,
Beatles were the best, LZ second.
In 100% agreement. Ruled the rock world for a full decade (without any help from media) during the golden age of rock. Zep-1 through Physical Graffiti was an untouchable streak of six phenomenal albums.
While Zeppelin is arguably better at their instruments in a technical/skill sense, the Beatles were far better at songwriting.
I admire how well those guys handled that interview. Charlie Rose was like a dog with a bone over the concert and taking the band one the road again. Then for him to mention Roberts son. I have no words for that!
I have loads of memories driving in the car as a kid, with my Daddy playing Led Zeppelin among other greats and that is where I get my love for these guys from.
4:45 John Paul Jones is also a member of Led Zeppelin, in case you were wondering.
Charlie Rose is as subtle as a war tank!
Led Zepplin is and will always be the greatest band
Lone Wolf Sanctum Music You and Lee spelt Zeppelin wrong,
That’s so closed minded.
No
Debatable
@@chiwawa130 not really..it's just a personal opinion..I love more of their songs than any other artist so they are also my favorite..
‘There’re more important things sometimes than being an entertainer.’ The best band in the world had its priorities straight: family.
Hands down one of the best Rock bands of all time
Jimmy actually looks the best of the three of them even though he's the eldest (and put his body through more). I think that Charlie kind of summed up why it might not be best for Led Zeppelin to continue in one of his questions. He said that the Led Zeppelin reunion show was magical. And that's it isn't it? It was magical, but would they be able to reproduce that magic for the span of a full tour? I heard an interview with Robert Plant many years ago when he was first starting off his solo career and he said in regard to Led Zeppelin that "there were times that he wasn't very good and times when I wasn't very good, but we got by." And I think that's part of it too, at this point in their career they just don't want to accept good enough any more. If they're going to do Led Zeppelin again, it would have to be perfection and better going forward. At 64, when this was taped, that's a lot harder to do than when you're 24.
You said it all man, great sentiment, they want to preserve the legacy while honoring the memories of Bonzo..... such decent good men & the most talented musicians to ever wslk this earth
Couldn't finish this, Rose gave me cancer.
@Madison Daily Come again?
I can't stand Rose!!
They should have just wrapped up the interview "Ok Charlie!! We decided we are starting a new tour, as of right now! Thanks so much for coming and for the interview" Christ..but they are gentlemen, all three
You have to be self quarantine from this video
@@DropTehBazz thats what she said
The members of Led Zeppelin bared their soul in this interview.
The loss of Bonzo was more devastating than we could ever realize. They loved and respected each other.
Led Zeppelin was the apex.
Very humble. Very talented.
Wishing John, Jimmy, and Robert the very best in the next chapters of their lives.
I literally thank The Creator, these 4 blokes got together and created the catalogue of music that has enriched my life more than any other single artist or band. The breadth of emotion present in Zeppelin’s cannon is almost comprehensive.
Led Zeppelin is the GREATEST BAND! In Rock History.❤
Fan argue with that!
Amen!!! They truly are the greatest and ever. The only band in history where all 4 were just absolutely brilliant not one superstar and 3 average guys. Amazing
Better than fleetwood mac or queen?not for me no way.
The BEATLES, tho
@@tomgallagher7870 oh god your such an idiot to think fleet wood fucking Mac is better
Robert really is an intelligent guy. They all are though. So rare to see that in music these days...
Absolute Genius's. They were amazing in the 70's but just to listen to them you can't help but admire their reason and desire to be the very best. To go out at the absolute pinnacle without their 4th member and friend.
Robert Plant is the gentleman not to lash at Rose for his stupid questions!
I am a Led Zeppelin fan....love their music all their music.
It was so nice that "they" allowed John Paul Jones to speak in "their" interview
Yes they were the greatest band I feel to this very day and yet they are the most humblest people you could ever meet, unless that was just for show but I don't thing it was. And the fact that they felt they couldn't go on after the tragic death of Bonzo really shows just what great people they are with in their very souls!
This is a most rational and intellectually enriching interview. Thanks Led Zeppelin.
