They made this song 8 minutes to give a person time to smoke a doob...They are a very accomodating rock band!
And a couple of shots of Bourbon đ
@@barbaratoth6346 weed and some hard liquor. And led fucking zeppelin đ
@@freddieelias6794 every day of the week.
@@barbaratoth6346 absolutely
Hell yeah
"Why did they make it 8 minutes though" Well kiddo, we got more music for the dollar back then. Bang for the buck.
Inna Gadda Divida was 15 minutes long!
@@latachia_2981
2112 was 20 minutes
Supper's Ready was 23 minutes
Echoes was 23 minutes
Atom Heart Mother was 23 minutes
Thick As A Brick was 46 minutes
Great music knows how to exceed time boundaries!
My question is why not 8 min. I could listen to 8 more...lol
This was made back when people had the patience to listen to music. Not this 3 min bullshit on the radio these days.
When music was actual music. Not the trash that they play today
To answer your question, "Why'd they make it 8 minutes though?"...they're not selling us a song, they're selling us an experience. You can't confine and rush those things my guy.
These 4 men coming together to form a band is like the planets aligning for a cosmic event that happens every hundred years
Led Zeppelin are the GOATS ... the catalogue is so deep you wont believe it.
Agreed. First band I got into when I was a kid waaaay back when In Thru The Outdoor came out.
Truth
They were the GOATS...until P. Diddy took their crown đ
Uh huh yeah, uh huh yeah. Eh eh, canât stop wonât stop
"Why'd they make it 8 minutes though?......." Because 8 minutes and 45 years later we STILL can't get enough of this song! BEST. ROCK. EVER! Hit that like button on my comment if you jammed this from your bicycle handles on your transistor radio riding around with your neighborhood buddies in 1975
Youâre listening to the most sampled drummer in hip/hop & rap. Bonham was the greatest not just for his technical ability, but mostly for his feel.
Self taught too.not formal trained. It is all Bonzo!
The technical ability was also there my friend. đđž
@@zeppelinfan9360 absolutely! Prob should have worded that better but I wasnât implying that he wasnât already incredibly technical as well.
@@zosomoso No matter how technically gifted one is, it's all about emotional content. I know you were highlighting what's most important.
I gotcha brother đđž
Clyde Stubblefield might've had something to say about that! But I do love em both - wonder if they ever met? Bonzo was a big RnB fan
Puff Daddy did a song, Come With Me, with this song sampled. The song is incredible in that the drums and singer are in 4/4 time and the instruments are in 3/4 time so it only hits together every few measures and is seamless. It is truly incredible.
It wasnt sampled, technically. Mr Page himself actually played the Kashmir riffs on Puffs song
@@razorfett147 didnât know that though, thatâs amazing!
9:06 is my favorite
@@randywhite3947this is the song the band is most proud of.
Virtually every band since the 70s has "sampled" some Led Zeppelin genius. They will always be the GOATs! Always copied but never matced.
The interesting thing about this song is that there are 2 different time signatures happening simultaneously. If you don't know, a time signature is how many beats are in each measure. For example, the most common is 4/4, meaning each measure has 4 quarter notes.
Ex: 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, et cetera
Another common one is 3/4, so there are 3 quarter notes per measure. This is often used in Waltz music or ballads.
Ex. 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 et cetera
Kashmir has both of these time signatures going on at the same time. The drums are in 4/4 but the guitars are in 3/4.
Drums: 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1
Guitars: 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1
Notice, beat 1 of each measure only syncs up every 12 beats, hence 3Ă4=12. This is known as a Polymeter and is very rare in music, but is often found in Progressive Rock bands like Rush, Genesis, Tool, Queen, King Crimson, and plenty more.
Excellent explanation!
brilliant and clear explanation and maybe that's why their music always had a resounding catch recurring that kept me into the music so well. it's like an affirmation when they hit together again and the other groups you named are all advanced musicians. Thanks for this explanation !
I genuinely just learnt something.... From The Comments đ
Thank you đ”đ
Great explanation and another reason why this song is god tier. I'm listening to the bridge (or what ever it's called) at around 3:40 ish and it sounds like all the parts sync up to the same time signature and then after a while it goes back to two different time signatures. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Thank youuuu!!! I get it!!! Holy sh,,,,, monster madness
I always amazed at Robert Plant's voice. It is an instrument that's adds to the complexity
Don't over analyze Zep.
Just let them take you for the ride.
OMG! You hit the nail right on the head!! Too many people trying to tell others how to listen to something. Just enjoy!!!!
Right!đđŸ
As Robert Plant himself said in this very song, âlet me take you there.â I think theyâve done that to all of us.
Yes, just melt on in and let it take you where you need to go
My mom & dad met at a Zeppelin concert in 1969 & here I am n today my daddy bday & he been gone 14 yrs yo so this hits đđ
Lol. Generation Z... for Zeppelin ;)
I hear you...
Happy birthday to your dad, wherever he is in the beyond!!
@@PeterTea lol?
As a Zeppelin fan, and someone who lost her father at age 13.. I was thinking what a absolute magical way to meet someone.. Your parents I'm sure had the best night! Happy birthday to your Daddy! I think about my dad and I feel like I was robbed because I didn't have him growing up. đ but it's comforting to know I will see him again. God bless and long live Zeppelin!! đđ
Why did they make it 8 minutes though đđđ
Back in the day people used to have a three hour attention span. đđđ
âWhy did they make it 8 minutes though?â Look at your face. Thatâs why.
Absolutely right! Haha I'm cracking up
Exactly. Well said.
Why did they make it 8 minutes? Because 8 minutes of greatness is better than 3 minutes of garbage like most music today đ
Back when people had an attention span longer than 3 minutes.
Today's...songs(?)...are longer than 3 minutes.
Or does it just seem like they are...?
@@misterschubert3242 Good call. I was in crotchety-old-man mode.
"Why did they need 8 minutes, though?"
"Don't stop there! Come on!"
he needs to give Sleep's Jerusalem a try. Brilliant!
Has to be one of the most catchy, powerful, riffs ever.....
The reaction he had when Plant hit the long note on âbeeeeeeeeeeeenâ says it all.
John Bonham, greatest Rock drummer of all time. He wrote the book on how it's done. The tone is all his.
Zeppelin is everywhere every walk of life . You can argue about the number one band of all time Beatles , Stones , or zeppelin... not any particular order .. they are all the greatest in their own right ...
Sorry, but although you've included three of the best bands ever, I'm afraid you have forgotten to include Pink Floyd, the true best band ever! đ
I am 65, this is my ringtone. Best live concerts ever ( actually tied with PF).
You seen AC/DC or Queen?
P Funk or Pink Floyd?
Just messing around.
Obviously Floyd, but Parliament puts on a great show too. : )
You just barely scratched the surface with Led Zeppelin. Continue learning and listening.
It's pretty fecking mind blowing, isn't it! I've loved this track for 40 years & it never gets old!
They had a string section, brass and woodwinds. One of the all time best songs ever made IMO
Like most of their songs, this was heavaly influinced by the booksof"The Lord of The Rings". The quote "Elders of aGental Race" is talking about Elves. Misty Mountain Hop is another one.
Ramble on is another Lord of the Rings song, "In the darkest depths of Mordor"
The Battle of Evermore too. In the last minutes they mention the ring and the nazguls
Apples!!! đ As a female Led Zeppelin fan since 1973 (yeah, I'm ancient đ), "Kashmir," to me, is the best Zeppelin song because of its all encompassing aspect. It showcases the band at their peak in 1975. The album, Physical Graffiti, has 4 distinct sides. Another excellent song from the record is "In My Time of Dying." Another lengthy tune that doesn't seem that long while listening to it.
Other great tunes: Communication Breakdown, Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, Heartbreaker, Ramble On, Gallow's Pole, Since I've Been Loving You, Hey Hey What Can I Do, Rock and Roll, The Battle of Evermore, Over the Hills and Far Away, The Crunge, Achilles' Last Stand, Nobody's Fault But Mine, Hots On For Nowhere, All My Love.
This list should give you a very complete look at Zeppelin!! â(ââż-)â
Nicely done, sooo many, but I gotta add 10 years gone. Kashmir is transcendent, like I donât need anything artificial to trip on that!
@@jameschenard7691 Since there is a Big Bang, and everything that is had have come into existence from that, there is nothing "artificial." All that is, is....
"Ten Years Gone" was written by Page as an instrumental until Plant told him he could put lyrics to it. Thus, we have ANOTHER excellent Zep tune!! đđ
@@justineapril7922 ohhh-ho-ho! You are good... on both points !âïžđ đ€Żđ€Ł
@@justineapril7922 I was in a rush going out the door to work when I commented... hope I didnât come across snarky with my 10 Years Gone addendum. Youâre list was spot on. I remember some Heart fans that for reasons beyond comprehension werenât familiar with Zep. I put on Achillesâ Last Stand...and they were like...Barracuda?!?
Puff Daddy did a "re-imagining" of the song called "Come With Me" that was in the 1998 Godzilla movie. That's probably where you've heard it.
This guy looks like he could be born in 1998 dude
Shitty reimagining
Yeah I remember đ€ź
The best thing about that movie was almost surely its soundtrack. Tracks from Puff Daddy, Jamiroquai, Rage Against the Machine, The Wallflowers, Fuel, Silverchair, and Foo Fighters...absolutely packed with great music. đŻđâ
Yes, and it played right at the moment the credits began to roll at the end of the movie.
This is from a time when mainstream music told stories other than money, sex, guns, like what is out there now, and the sound was more than sts, sts, sts. My teenagers listen to new stuff and also a lot of 70âs - 90âs and evening they admit 90% of todayâs music is the same shallow crap.
Im 13 and i live zepellin and i learning them on guitar a rap is not music for me
I was surprised he hadn't heard of ACDC or Linkin Park!
Fill your boots and listen to all of this great album. Then dig out all their other great albums, and enjoy!!
Jojo: I only listen to Rap
Me: And look at what you've been missing.
Zeppelin albums are concept albums, designed to be listened to in their entirety. That's why you're waiting for a crescendo that never comes.
Next time you listen to one of your hip hop songs, you just might be listening to Zeppelin and not even know it. Like this song for instance, it was sampled by Puff Daddy along with Jimmy Page. Itâs always good to check out the original source.
next time you listen to one of your Zeppelin songs, you might be listening to the delta blues music of the deep south, and not even know it
@@press1500 Actually if know anything, then you that. Everybody knew back in the day. It took bands like Led Zep to bring it mainstream.
Didn't Jimmy make Diddy pay millions to use this? Thought I read that somewhere.
@@melissarose0126 I hope so.
@@daemonicstar Just looked it up. Jimmy is actually playing the riff in the song. Said his son was into rap, and did it as a way to get into rap/hip hop to relate to his son James Patrick III. In the pieces I just found and read it did not give a dollar amount. Back then in 1998, there were articles about it, and thought it had given an amount. Lived a bit in between then and now
Your listening to the best drummer ever to have lived my friend
Iâm more of a Peart fan...Bonham does have better beats but Peart does much more.
âđŒâđŒâđŒâđŒâđŒâđŒ
Youâre
@@drumspaz80 a drummer pointing out a spelling mistake....the worldâs gone mad đ
I would have to say Neil Peart holds that title man
I remember liking the Puff Daddy song (Come With Me) as a teenager when it came out, then having my mind blown by Kashmir in my 20s when I discovered Zeppelinâs catalogue.
This is me exactly!! đ€đ»
This music was big during the tail end of the Vietnam War. The band was one of many that spoke about trips (taken mentally through the use of) mind enhanced drugs. The background rifts make it feel tense in and maintains this tensed feeling throughout as the singer tells his story of the journey he has been on. This song is one of the best songs rock songs ever written during this time in music history.
It's from
Plant,
Page,
JP Jones,
And John Henry Bonham..
All 4 are arguably the best ever in their individual roles
GOATS of Rock and Roll. This is my favorite song ever
Definitely My Favorite Zeppelin song. I've taken that Journey many many times.
It came from Led Zeppelin. But many have as you young ones say sampled it. Led Zeppelin wrote many songs that people borrowed from
Led Zeppelin did it's fair share of borrowing. I know when the Beasties sampled them early on Page had no problem and found it interesting.
@@anthonyv6962 yeah, they done a lot of old blues songs. Im glad they did because i never would've heard of them. They wrote a lot of songs also. Im just glad the young ones get to experience good music. These days music is not the same to me
@@patrickseevers3858 good is subjective. Todays music is good to today's youth. The adults don't care for it just like when you were a kid. The cycle continues.
@@anthonyv6962 The difference is people even young ones are listening to this and are amazed.
@@patrickseevers3858 my point was the elders never like the music of the youth. The kids are more likely to enjoy classic rock than you are to enjoy Cardi B and WAP.
Zeppelin are the most sampled act in music history! You've probably heard parts of their music all over the place. :)
Surely James Brown's the most sampled?
Led Zeppelin specializes in songs that "take you there."
Led Zeppelin is a group not a person. LOL. Someone said below Ouff Daddy covered it from the Godzilla Soundtrack. the cover was called 'Come with Me."
Led "Belly" Zeppelin?đ€đđ
I just love this song. No matter how many decades that I have listen to this, it stills grabs my attention and gets me grooving. Sometimes 8 minutes was not long enough. Thanks for sharing.
This song is about their top to India,. They fell in love with India. They tripped with elders of the gentle race. Excellent song!!! Very deep and open minded.
They must have given the Indians all of our phone numbers while they were there.
I thought this was inspired by their trip to Morocco? Iâll have to check in that đ€
@@donmatulevich9411 What is there to look into? Kashmir is in India.
The title of the song is in fact a region in India. But look up the inspiration for the song. It was from his time with Page in Morocco.
Nope. Incorrect. facebook.com/jimmypage/posts/10157232887802612:0 Read Page's post yourself. If they went to Morocco in 1975, how is it that Kashmir was recorded in 1974? Page wrote the riffs in 1973. At the time Kashmir was finished, the only one in the band that had been to Morocco was Plant in 1973.
When you fell back in the bed for a minute it reminded me that's the best way to listen to Led Zeppelin. Sure you can't do that in a reaction but that is the best way to listen to them on your own: lying down, lights out or dim with headphones and let them carry you on a journey. this song ,as with their others, is best listened to over and over again. It will always take you deep.
Now you know why some of us are Led heads until we're dead. Immigrant Song is another on you might like and that was utilized on one of the Thor movies (too faded to remember which one)
Led Zeppelin is LEGENDARY band; true global influencer, and you'll probably recognize WAY more tracks than you would possibly imagine. No Cap. ;)
Check out "When the Levee Breaks" from Led Zeppelin IV. Its a re-worked country blues song from 1929 by Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McCoy about the Great Mississippi flood of 1927. Another iconic John Bonham drum beat.
âWhereâs this beat from?â đđ Itâs from the song Kashmir by Led Zeppelin
Listen to "The Battle of Evermore" by Zeppelin for that Lord of the Rings feel...very different not sure you'll like it but that fantasy feeling is great for me.
"the Lovemongers" do a cover version that is bang on. It was on the "Single" soundtrack.

My daughter is 17 and listens to all music genres, from rock, new wave, bluegrass, rap, contemporary etc. and it's fun to watch young people listen to some of the greats from before they were born and really appreciate it. Kudos to you for having an open mind!
8 minutes was a respectable length, but it wasn't all that long for the 70's. Some bands had songs that filled an entire side of the record, around 20 minutes (or more). This was the era of AOR - album-oriented rock - when records were meant to be heard all at one go and had intricate storylines through the album. Also, there was the weed factor - most rock bands understood at least a good percentage of their listeners were going to be stoned. :D
Oh! Do yourself a favor and find the version of this from the "No Quarter" album. Its only Robert Plant and Jimmy Page accompanied by an orchestra, but it is an AMAZING and distinctly different version with more of a Middle Easter vibe to it that in no way makes it sound any less powerful and amazing!
You should watch the videos of them live 1973 in Madison Square Garden, especially "Since I've Been Loving You" and "The Ocean"
The version of "Since I've Been Loving You" you want is live from "How The West Was Won." Featuring the very finest Jimmy Page solo in history.
I have never heard anyone describe music in the way you do. It was outstandingly excellent! Thanks much.
One of my all-time favorite songs, ever.. The uniqueness of the beat is somewhere between making love and just going nuts with it.......
Great song to make love to...
You have got to check out "In my time of dying" by Zeppelin! My favorite song from them and there's many to choose from!
With a song title like "Kashmir," I visualize a group of men, wearing clothing that protect themselves from the blowing sand, never ending.
Have no idea why people think Kashmir is a desert.
That beat has been sampled for YEARS!
They made it 8 minutes long because there is a minimum length to register a composition as a classical music piece in the UK, which allowed them a much longer copyright protection and royalties. All songs where they used "classical" instruments had to be over a certain length, which is either 6 or 8 minutes, I forget
Apples!!! You have heard this before prob from Diddy "Come with me"! I totally appreciate ur open mind when it comes to all different music! Watching u react to bands like Led Zeppelin, Lenard Skynyrd, Billy Idol n others , it reminded me of my days in the military in the 80s n for some it was the first time they were hanging with ppl from different races n being exposed to different styles of music n they liked it!
âPreparing for warâ, excellent impression. And eating pancakes with maple syrup as you do so. Cool reaction. You really got into it. I remember when this came out. Landmark song. Hadnât really heard anything like it before. I saw them do this live in concert, it was awesome.
Lucky you! đ
@@kimberlysaffles9332 I know. I do feel fortunate about when I was born.
Not to be morbid but it was at the same venue where some people got trampled to death at The Who concert a couple years later. That didnât surprise me much because I got lifted into the air waiting in a huge crowd outside when they only opened a few doors to let everyone in for the general admission concert.
@@mickeyhank thatâs crazy. I love going to festivals and concerts but Iâm getting too old for the festivals. Being in the middle of all those people crammed together is scary.
1:48
This beat is "from" exactly where you're hearing it. Unlike much of their earlier fare, which was, um, liberally borrowed as an homage to their blues progenitors (Willie Dixon, Albert King, Howling Wolf etc al), this was pure Zep (well, with some literary references).
You probably know it from Puff Daddy on the 1997 Godzilla soundtrack, but it was also used by Schooly D back in the 80s.
Zeppelin are the Grand Fathers of Metal IMHO, Not because they are at Grand father ages now, but that they invented the Metal sound back in the early 70's and created a whole new Genre of Rock N Roll that has become the bed rock of all types of Metal Music today. Can't wait to see where it goes next ...Peace!
You might as well go to possibly the top track ... in My time of dying âïžđŹđ§
Hey, this is my FAVORITE đ€© Led Zep song! Great you found it. Itâs so much fun to watch you enjoy it!
The âStar Wars Villainâ might be âGodzillaâ, the movie from 1998, I think. Jimmy Page, guitarist of Zeppelin, âborrowedâ the song to Puff Daddy for the soundtrack. He also played the guitars for the âCome with meâ on the soundtrack and appeared in the video.
One of the best songs and riffs ever!!
With over 300 million albums sold worldwide even if you do not listen to this type of music, for sure you heard it some where.
Mellow Zeppelin,"Over the Hills and Far Away", "Hey Hey What Can I Do", "Going to California", "Your Time is Going to come"
The song is 8 minutes because 3 just wont do for all of the Led Zeppelin greatness. I suggest watching some live Zeppelin so you can see Jimmy Page play the guitar with a Celo bow.
The Immigrant Song and Kashmir were both played this weekend during the NFL playoff games as they went to commercial breaks at the end of a quarter. On different networks no less! These guys will never be forgotten
Led Zepplin's bassist, John Paul Jones, also plays the keyboards. For this song he played a special keyboard known as a mellotron, which provided the string orchestra sound, instead of the traditional bass sound.
"Fast times at Ridgemont High" (the best rocker movie of what it was like growing up in the 70's) played Kashmir.
Side 1, Zep 4...
Cruisin to Kashmir.... nailed it
Fast Times, the movie, is def a glimpse at early 80's SoCal couture.
Dazed and Confused. Nuff said
I actually lived "Dazed and Confused" in the 70's, thats way closer to the 70s, Ridgemont had more a early 80s feel.
Puff Daddy's song "Come with Me" sampled this song and was featured in one of the Godzilla movies. LZ probably is the most sampled group for rap artist of all time.
Many of the greatest rock stars of the 60s and 70s were trained to play classical music as they were children of the 50s and that's what parents encouraged (forced) the boys to learn. I know the VanHalen brothers were the Beatles, Zeppelin and many others. That's why the could play and create complicated interesting music.
Great reaction to a brilliant led zep song, well done đâ
You know the guitar riff from Puff Daddy ft Jimmy Page - come with me. Edit: the puff daddy version was also on the Godzilla movie soundtrack
jimmy played on the track too
@@eatthisvr6I stated that above lol đ
Also Rage Against the Machineâs intro to Wake Up is extremely similar
"Fast Times at Ridgemont High" movie used this song
You're for sure one of the most honest reactors. Keep up the good work my man.
Agreed. His intelligence/sincerity shines above other reactors I've viewed.
I saw them in concert around 68 or 69 .. thanks for your reactions thumbs up đ.
When the levee breaks, no quarter, in my time of dying, Achilles last stand
Oh, my friend, you are about to go on a musical journey that will change the landscape of music for the rest of your life!
Hit that "When the Levee Breaks", and prepare for one of the most low down, dirty, sexy songs ever recorded.
You have mentioned a great song there!
The drummer John Bonham is a legend s king upon kings. All modern day drum rifts have their bases in him and this is one their most famous songs. I donât think you realize how much this song turned the entire music culture on its head back in the day. This drum rift is one of the most complex drum rifts ever produced. It actually is inverted over a 2/4 beat and then completely flipped upside down and run backwards. If you listen to some of the greats in the industry theyâll tell you that the song Kashmir has one of those complex drumming riffs ever produced in history. To be very honest with you if it was not for this song rap music probably would not even exist today. Led Zepplin was a legend of legends in the music industry.
60âs & 70âs incredible time for music
Incredible time to be alive. And in LA (calf) and listening to KMET/KLOS radio stations as they played all the group's before any other station in the USA. Hears LZ first time here!! What a time to live. So many memories..
Listen to "no quarter". Medevil setting. No quarter means " take nothing leave nothing" like take no shit or prisoners, start no shit, leave no prisoners.
Listen to Stairway to Heaven, it has been voted the greatest rock songs ever.
This song was in the top 20 before Star wars was even thought of. The sound and melody was a riff that became an Eastern tone by mistake... A valuable one....
@LFR Jojo I think it's awesome to see just how inspired and moved you are by this great Music!!! It really is great to share your journey with you as you experience what has to be the most monumental composition in not just Rock music history, but all contemporary modern Music. I was 14 when I first heard this, and it hit me like a sledgehammer! But in a good way đ it's the greatest song of Peace ever, because it mixes musical styles from both East and West......only Art can form the olive branch. Peace and Love from the UK! â€
You would love "When The Levee Breaks" or "In My Time Of Dying" By Led Zeppelin. Peace Out!
...and if you do listen to "When the levee breaks", MAKE SURE you then listen the original by Memphis Minnie. It was recorded in 1929.
"In My Time of Dying" is a masterpiece. And for 1975?!? One of a kind song.
Sublime. You will find a lot of music made in this era is still being used classics.
Hi, I'm almost 53, I really enjoy your content. I'm familiar with a lot of the music you react to, and I'm familiar with a lot of the newer music too. All kinds of music. It's so cool seeing you enjoy stuff you wouldn't normally listen to. Anything by Led Zeppelin is probably gonna be good. đ there's So Much good music out there to explore â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
Zep has a knack of waking you up, dancing around, then letting you go back to sleep. They create a relationship or journey with every song.
That is Jimmy Page running a violin bow across his guitar.
He does that on Dazed and Confused not on Kashmir bro
@@bobbyn.9773 ok bro thanks for the correction.
@@bobbyn.9773 And on how many more time" and the Intro of "in the evening"
@@fixzeichner5592 yes!
The strings are from a Mellotron. It was sort of a paleo-sampler. It was a keyboard instrument, and each key played a literal tape loop. The two most common sounds were strings, like this, and choir - listen to Genesis songs like "The Cinema Show" for a taste of that. The tape loops were in a rack that you would swap out like a giant cassette tape. The Beatles' "Strawberry Fields Forever" has an iconic Mellotron string part.
When you grow up on this music you just take it for granted that everyone knows it.
It's a bit sad that (generally) the younger generations are only introduced to these classics when they are sampled in other songs.
And even then the sample, the 'hook' is presumed to be by the samplers.
They are the Monarchs of Rock Royalty. Pick any song from any album, and it was a hit. Zeppelin, didnât compromise. Violin bows crossing guitar strings, were more innovative than any âpedalâ invented. No band in history, influenced more artists than Zeppelin....Beatles, a close 2nd....
P Diddy used this for the movie Godzilla. The Celebration Day version is pure fire also. John Paul Jones on the keyboards is what you are hearing. John Bonham on the drums is so epic.
Recorded with an Orchestra...what you are hearing are Violins. THIS...is a masterpiece. Real musical art was created to move you and take you on a journey while the story is being told. Music in these days wasn't written for "Radio Appeal"...it was ART! Difficult to condense this type of creation into the 3 minutes allowed for radio programming. ENJOY!
Or to put it another way - Led Zeppelin didn't write tunes that everybody liked. They left that to the Bee Gees.
Amo, amo e amo demais o Led Zeppelin! Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul e John Bonham sĂŁo maravilhosos! Hugs! From Ilha de PaquetĂĄ - Rio de Janeiro - RJ - Brasil com S! âšđđ§đ·
Saw em live in 1972 in Syracuse NY. To know Zeppelin you have go back to Zeppelin 1, 2, and 3! Blues Rock!
Back in the day Zeppelin and pink flood took u on ride for which for me never got off 50 yrs and still kicking ass
