First listening to LED ZEPPELIN - "LED ZEPPELIN II" (Part.1) 

Part 2 : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DTwmTkRKeYU.html

Verdy, you are quickly becoming my most favorite reactor on YT. I was a sophomore in High School when this album debuted, and I have enjoyed this music for a lifetime. The whole reason I watch reactors to music is to see the spark of enjoyment that I remember when I first heard this music. Your honest reaction is so satisfying and pure joy to behold. You really have a connection to this music, and I am happy to see young people of your generation appreciate what we now refer to as "Classic Rock". For me and a large number of people it is the soundtrack of our lives. Thank you, keep rocking and uncovering these gems.

The sound of these records is testament to Jimmy's unparalleled skills as a producer.

Individually they were gods of their instruments. Collectively they were the greatest rock band to have ever existed!

Very nice reaction Verdy. When you listen and learn from Led Zeppelin you're getting master class notes from 4 individuals who were each the best at their chosen instruments. Together they formed the most complete and brilliant band of all time

Finally, a true reaction channel. It's refreshing to see someone reacting to MUSIC. I've been getting tired of reactors trying to break down and analyze lyrics and interpret what the song is about, while ignoring what's going on, musically. I've been a hard-core led zep fan for 50 years and i still don't know half of what RP is talking about. But it doesn't matter because the music is what's important.

The bass line from John Paul Jones on “The Lemon Song” is one of the greatest ever. Jimmy Page is (of course) amazing as well.

That wacky noise in the middle of Whole Lotta Love is Jimmy Page playing a device called the Theremin. Used alot in science fiction movies. The "old door" sound is pick scratching with echo. Gotta love that subtle "wah" on the solo. Every song on that album is a classic. Jimmy was a true artist on the guitar.

Thoroughly enjoyed your reaction. Very insightful. Welcome to the magical world of Led Zeppelin. Nothing else compares.

In 1969 I'm 12 years old. I'm in my cousin's basement in Longueuil, Quebec, with about 10 teenage kids. This is blasting on the stereo and I had never heard anything like this in my life! It was subversive, exhilarating and scary, all at the same time. I'm still hooked on this album all these years later, and it's so cool to see you have the same reactions I did! I'm subbed!

Still after 53 years THIS my favorite LZ album. The main reason is that I remember just how I felt the first time I heard the album. Congrats on your channel! You are really great at it.

Great to see a young person first hear the best music. Ever!

I love that you encore segments of songs .. "gotta hear that again!".

I'm 70 now and fell in love with Zep's music when I played Good Times Bad Times in 1968. It filled me with much joy

You're the only kid I see reacting to the music of my youth the way it should be heard. Not one hit at a time but, the whole album. I love it when I see someone experience this music for the first time. You smile the whole way through and that makes me smile:-)

Great reaction. The early LZ are almost like they improvising or playing live and shooting it in one shot. They might have played this live in the studio and just shot it into the master tape. Great album

Its great to watch someone enjoying Led Zep for the first time. I wasn't big into them when they first appeared in 1969 but loved the songs that got radio play. Finally in my teen years a bit later I began to appreciate more songs and all of their talents. By my late teens and to this day, I consider them the best rock group ever.

Stereo was a pretty new thing at this time and a lot of bands exploited this to the full, which is why there is so much right to left/left to right stuff going on - everything now seems to be layered rather than split which might be why it sounds so fresh to you. love your reaction to this stuff - your pure enjoyment is so apparent it takes me back 50 years.😁

When I first heard this album many years ago my reaction was much like yours. Surprised, excited, impressed, and happy! Thanks for sharing!

"Whole Lotta Love" was the first LZ song I remember hearing on the radio WABX Detroit (I was 9) but I didn't get this album for another few years. I have been a Ledhead since then. It looks like I will be following your reactions for a while. Great job.

Great Reaction. This album is like a wild animal escaping!

Verdy watching your reaction videos is like listening to late night FM stations in the late sixties and seventies . The dj’s would play the whole albums not just one song. Please keep it up. I enjoy watching you enjoy our greatest bands and discovering their music.

Great reaction. Someday, years from now , you will be able to go back and watch yourself hearing these great songs for the first time ! A luxury the rest of us don't have . When that day comes , i am sure you will enjoy it, like we do now.

for me as a pro bass player this is a master class in what you can do with knowledge and feel .

You are blessed Verdy. Your appreciation and enthusiasm for this music is just wonderful to behold.

Led Zeppelin is just insanely fantastic! This album is just so freaking great!

I was about 8 years old when my oldest brother, who is 10 years older than I, first brought this album to his room. At first, I would listen to the music from outside his bedroom door (because I was not allowed inside his room, especially when his friends were there), but when he noticed me that not only was standing there, but I was really enjoying what he was playing! He later let me in the room, warning me to not touch anything or say anything about what they were doing in the room. From that day on (1970), I was hooked! Seeing your genuine reaction to this and the first LZ album was exactly my reaction inside my head and heart. I really love your whoo-ing at certain parts of the songs. So cute!

"Whole Lotta Love" was the first Zeppelin song I heard. I was a young teenager riding in the back seat of our '69 Ford Custom 500, and when that song came on the radio, I literally stood up in the car with my mouth hanging open. I couldn't help it.

This riff is commonly know as the greatest riff in rock.

OK Verdy I'm back for Zep II. Glad you're still digging the tunes. Musical geniuses of their time. See you for side B!

Love the way you smile at those guitar solos..been playin for 50+ years and love it when someone really appreciates.....

This was almost certainly the most satisfying reaction to The Lemon Song I've yet seen, thanks!

I love your true emotions on every song. It is very much appreciated and very entertaining. Thank you for keeping it real.. very excited to go down this Zeppelin rabbit hole journey together.. Can't wait for more..

Simply the best reaction channel. My opinion)) I like your genuine emotions. It's nice to listen to these great albums in your company.

Nice reaction . Led zep 2 is a masterpiece. Whole lotta love was the first song that I really got into I must’ve heard it on the radio 1979 went out and bought the album and I was hooked

I'm curious. How does listening to an album like Led Zeppelin II affect the way you perceive your own music (the music you normally listen to)?

Thank you for this great review, wonderful Miss Verdy! This is raw blues-influenced and very British classic rock of the late 60s. Maybe you will be surprised by the next album Led Zeppelin III, which features a lot more acoustic guitar. But it also includes one of the best, if not the best ever, blues-rock ballad, called Since I've been loving you. Best greetings from Germany

Can't wait to see part 2!!!! watching you makes me feel like I did when I heard it for the first time

I carried around well folded ten bucks in my jeans pocket for about three weeks waiting to buy this album when it was released. Everyday at school lunchtime, rain or shine, my mates and I would run five blocks to the drug store that sold albums. Oh the disappointment when we wouldn't find it. The first album was such a revelation that we couldn't wait for more. The day it arrived and we saw it in the rack is a day fifty three years later I haven't forgot. With all that anticipation, the album did not disappoint and I wore it out as I did all their albums. That album to this day is on my album shelf. What great time to grow up.

I was 17 when this came out. The airwaves were full of fantastic music. This is a sample of what you could hear. The best way to listen to Zeppelin is, to begin with, album 1 track 1 and work your way to the last track of the last album. You won't find any bad songs.

Your smile when Page comes back in on Whole Lotta Love pretty much says it all.

65 yrs old and still jamning to Led Zeppelin. It doesnt get any better. Great reaction, love your channel.

most songs seem to highlight 1 instrument, but seems like every led zeppelin song highlights every instrument, all at the same time!

Thanks for the great and heartfelt reaction!!! This was the first hard rock song I ever heard on the radio, and it changed my life!

In the freakout section of this song, Jimmy Page played a theremin, a bizarre electronic instrument he liked to experiment with consisting of a black box and antennae, famously heard on the 1966 Beach Boys song "Good Vibrations." The sound is altered by moving one's hand closer to or farther from the antennae and was used to create the fuzz that alternates back and forth through the speakers. It can be heard to great effect on their Royal Albert Hall footage. Page decided to try theremin after hearing the group Spirit use one.

Thanks Verdy! Really made me smile. “It’s not good for my heart!” Yeah baby!

I think this is awesome. I watched the LED ZEP 1 first listening's with you and I enjoyed your take.

To me, my fave Zeppelin album by far. You give me hope for future generations. I’ll be 60 soon yet, could go in peace having it. Thanks.

Verdy conducting the Led Zep orchestra w/ that sweeping motion of Page's slide guitar.... wwwwwwhhhhhooooooooooooooooooooosh - Wanna whole lotta love!!

One of the many British bands that reintroduced Black (electrified) Blues to the United States (and the world). What a revelation to the listening public with LZ 1 and then this explosion of head-bangin' music in LZ 2. ICONIC. Cymbals, tom-toms, Bonzo was a master of all percussion. And who doesn't love JPJ's BASS LINE?! Then the hyper lead guitar by Page. How have our ears withstood this onslaught for all these years?! A band that was NOT AFRAID OF BASS PASSAGES. Love it!!! Drums: John Bonham. Lead Guitar: Jimmy Page. Bass: John Paul Jones. Vocals: Robert Plant.

This album impressed me greatly as a kid. It was just mind bending, a "shot across the bow" that the times were a changing and the Beatles were being replaced by a new sound.

Are you going to continue with the other albums? Love it, so far! Warning: Zeppelin III is a little sleepy and folksy; a wonderful album, one of my favorites, but VERY different, and not so much ROCK n' ROLL. Come back to it, if you want to continue the ROCK journey. Go on to IV, and to MY PERSONAL FAVORITE, Physical Graffitti, wherein we go back to full blown GENIUS Rock n' Roll. Can't wait to see you react to that whole DOUBLE album (4 parts, perhaps?). You will no doubt give it a WHOLE LOTTA LOVE (so kill me, I like puns!) :)

I love your reaction to my favorite Band!! This album came out towards the end of 1969. My favorite song What is & what should never be. I love all the songs on this great album. Thank You for bringing back great memories 👍👍👍🌴✌️

What casual fans do not understand about Zep is the homage to the blues which fills most of their songs.

Led Zeppelin performed "Killing Floor" by Blues Legend Howlin Woof live in 1968 and 1969, and it became the basis for "The Lemon Song", which they recorded on their 1969 album Led Zeppelin II. Great reaction! Just subscribed! Keep the cool reactions comin!

Jimmy Page is also playing a Theremin on Whole Lotta Love. It’s an instrument like a radio that you don’t touch. That makes no sense but you will understand when you see it being played.

Been waiting on this. 🙂

Back in 1969 I was 16 and into music. But look what was available to listen to in 69. Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 1969 like Tom Jones, Sly and the Family Stone, Elvis, Johnny Cash and then Led Zepplin hit the scene. I had heard of Jimmy Page from The Yard Birds. They really blew up what kids were listening to and parents hated it.

Amazing music and amazing reactions. Thank you Verdy!

This takes me back to where it all started for me. Led Zeppelin set me on a path of forever looking for something new and interesting. Many years and many band/songs later I am still looking! I would say it's an addiction at this point. Zep will always be my favorite because there is no one like the first. Love to see the younger set discovering one of the greatest rock bands ever.

You are a joy to watch. Not sure how KPOP compares to LZ but I am glad you found it. Glad to see a young woman enjoying the wider range of music. All good wishes to you, from the UK. Enjoy.

Oh cool, Another one. I really enjoyed the first one. ; ) I was your age the first time I heard it, Now I'm 60 years old. : )

Great idea to share your feelings and the way you hear the music. About Led Zeppelin, just to say: great band, ever

Roger Glover (bassist of Deep Purple) once said, "I thought 'heavy' was just more volume... it wasn't until the Led Zeppelin record came out that the penny clicked... 'heavy' was an attitude!"

The sound going from left to right is a studio recording technique called "Panning". Jimmy Page was a big fan of using this in production and mixing guitar and vocals backwards with forwards. The echo on the part where Robert Plant sings "Way Down Inside" is the vocals bleeding from another vocal track. It wasn't supposed to happen but Page thought it sounded cool so he left it in. Love your reaction to it. Still makes my spine tiggle like the first time I heard it over forty years ago 😊👍

Only four members. Bass rides his own solo, drummer keeps time. Thank you is a great wedding song🤘❤️

Thank you Verdy, you really get the music and Thank you for not cutting the end off of Thank you.

The middle part is Led Zepplins interpretation of love making!! It's the most honest I've ever heard, ha ha, just deep and raw!!

You wanted to know what that noise is? I’m sure somebody else wrote this but Jimmy page was the lead guitarist and the guitar player. So what he is doing is he uses a bowl from either violin or oboe. And he also invented a couple techniques that people use today. But legends all of them all four. I’m glad you’re enjoying Led Zeppelin it makes me feel good to see younger generations find good music

Thank you for the good music from old Germany all time! And "Thank you" is an song for the Flower Power time, a Hippie-song. Super!

Listening to you listening to this feels like when my friends and I would listen together, and get excited about music. Sadly people don't seem to do this anymore closed off in their own private soundtracks.

Loving this content! Led Zeppelin is a must!

absolutely nice. digging in my memories when i was young and heard this songs of led zeppelin. thank you young lady for your lovely comment. this music is great.

My favorite Zeppelin album. Hope you get into Rush sometime, you won't be disappointed and they're from Canada so you are kinda obligated.

Love that you are going in order half an album at a time.

Love Verdys' catchphrase.... "whpoou" Got me doing it now.....

Verdy love watching you discover great music from that time period when music was special.

I'd guess this album is about the same age as Verdy's parents, yet here's this kid discovering it and loving it. My question is: Has music been done? Ps: Your frequent comment 'I didn't think it was going to go like this' is EXACTLY what Led Zeppelin so great. PPS. Your channel heading is Reaction to Kpop and More. You've come a long way from Kpop kid 😎

I was 7 Years old Singing on the coffee table When Led Zeppelin Played on the radio

You're the best thing going girl, keep it up!

I don't know if anyone said, that sound you thought sounded like a squeeky old door is guitarist Jimmy Page scratching at the windings on the strings with the side of the guitar pick. Pick slides would become very popular in the 70;s abd 80's, but Jimmy is doing something much more creative than just that.

I appreciate that you back up an adequate amount after you pause to comment. That way you don’t miss the transitions. Sadly, not all YT reactors do this.

Every LZ. LP will be different Verdy Enjoy, They get better & better, if that's possible. 😊🌺

Led Zeppelin was fantastic back in my high school days of the very early 1970's and it's nice to see they always seem to find a new audience. I enjoy your reactions and the music is just killer. Best.

When you react to side 2 Heartbreaker and Livin Lovin Maid were usually played together. This is what the good FM stations would do. I always found it frustrating when radio stations would play Heartbreaker by itself.

They called this album "The Brown Bomber" because it was brown-ish in color and it's sales rate and longevity were unbelievably strong.

I carried around well folded ten bucks in my jeans pocket for about three weeks waiting to buy this album when it was released. Everyday at school lunchtime, rain or shine, my mates and I would run five blocks to the drug store that sold albums. Oh the disappointment when we wouldn't find it out yet. The first album was such a revelation that we couldn't wait for more. The day it arrived and we saw it in the rack

Young lady, there is no doubt that you are a TRUE Rocker!

Verdy. A few comments. When you think you have heard something before think about when this was recorded. I was 22 when I bought this album and I'm 75 now. These guys had/have incredible talent. You keep mentioning the bass. That's John Paul Jones. He also plays keyboard and if you watch the O2 concert video you will see him playing bass and keyboard.. Watch him carefully. Talent. Jimmy Page is an amazing guitar player, and as somebody who played guitar as a teenager in the early 60s. I have to tell you that Led Zeppelin were revolutionary. They didn't just shock you on first listen , they shocked us, and in 1969 there was nothing like them. I have all their albums, in vinyl, bought when the albums were released and then again much later remastered on CD. Stairway to Heaven still gives me goose bumps when I hear it.

So cool to see someone listen to an album for then first time that I've listened to thousands of times. Zeppelin are like a train journey that once you get on, you don't want to get off.

Jimmy Page is the lead guitarist and recognized as one of the greatest to ever play the guitar. John Paul Jones on base, John Bonham on drums and of course Robert Plant on Vocals. Four of the best musicians to ever play together in a band.

Love your reactions on first listening. I was 13 when i first hear this, my older brother bought it. My favourite album is LZ 3 mainly because when i was doing my school exams it was the only album I had! (Listen to Tangerine) I really appreciate your enjoyment and reaction to this music especially when you rewind Whole Lotta Love to hear the drum guitar burst after the first section. :-)

Chillin and groovin to Zep after a hard day of work with your reaction vids makes me happy.

Verdy, Led Zeppelins "Kashmir" is one of the finest pieces of music ever recorded. I highly recommend it.

Nice to see young People Getting into LED. Verdy is a Rock Chick.

This is the first album I ever bought with my own money. I was nine. Still have that copy more than 50 years later.

Its a joy watching u enjoy something I grew up with

Love your reactions, I can tell you really are loving their stuff. It's hard not to, can't wait for Zeppelin 4

What a great album, eh? I'm not a drummer, so someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the "ping" sound you were referring to in "Whole Lotta Love" is John Bonham hitting the bell or dome of the cymbals (instead of closer to the edge where they are normally struck). The "creaking door" sound is nothing more than a pick scraping the windings of the lower strings (slowly, and with a whole lotta echo). John Paul Jones' bass lines are just perfect, so much swagger, and he played the organ parts. Robert Plant's vocals, raspy and emotional and powerful. Jimmy Page is the guitarist every guitar player tries to emulate. So much contrast. This album is one of the greatest of the 20th century. Just an absolute masterpiece.

These were the early days of Stereo Verdy. So bands and producers liked to showcase the difference Stereo could make to their recordings. Love your exactment and enthusiasm.
