I dunno about that! Sure, my generation loved them, but my parents generation wasn't real pleased with it. LOL They thought it was devil music. Of course that was 50 years ago. Don't you remember all that stuff about satanic messages in stairway and all that?
Can’t go wrong with Zeppelin. All four members were aficionado’s on their respective instruments. What I love most about them is that you can tune in to just the guitar, just the drums, just the bass line, or the vocals and each part is so duly conceptualized and fleshed out. Best rock band of all time.
I can't listen to this without it flowing seamlessly into the next cut on the album, "Rock and Roll". Next time you listen to this, listen to both together.
What’s best about Zep is they play many styles…blues,rock,funk, acoustic folk, otbhestral,middle eastern and they even have a reggae style song called D’yer M’aker , you should check that one out.
When this album came out I was 17 years old and we listened to this day and night. but the top was going to see them live in 68, opening for the Who! Check out the live video of Zep playing "the Ocean".
3 suggestions from me are when the levee breaks, in my time of dying and achilles last stand. The drums alone on all of those are simply unmatched by anybody else ever
HazeBruv Great Reaction. I don’t know how people felt about this song when it was released .It was released in 1971 I was born in 1970 so it came out when I was a baby. This is my favorite Led Zeppelin song. It may not be The best Led Zeppelin song but it definitely speaks to me. I’ve only been listening to it since 1983. Thanks for sharing with us.😀👍❤️✌️🌼
“Your opinion is invalid and you are lacking is so many areas…” what a great way to covey your intolerance of closed minds. Well said! Thank you and keep up the good work, Mr. Bruv.
Man I can remember like it was yesterday half my friends love disco half my friends love rock and roll but we all love Led Zeppelin. And more importantly, the ladies loved Led Zeppelin, you know what I'm saying
Does my soul good ! I’m a guitarist I had a friend from Dtown he had heard I played I picked up a guitar in a music store and played this song my brother man went nuts ! I was a boy when this came out ! I loved it ! This was released in 1971 Zeppelin didn’t tealease 45 singles !
Heh, "Black Dog" rocks! I was still in pre-school when this dropped, so I can't speak to the reaction then, but by the time I got to sixth grade it was one of those cuts you wanted to play super loud but held back a bit out of worry that your parents might overreact to the lasciviousness of the lyrics and confiscate the entire album as punishment. "Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way \ Watch your honey drip, I can't keep away..."
Led Zeppelin never made a bad song. This is my teen to early twenties time. In concert they were even better cos you could see them. I personally liked their entire catalog and still do in my late 60's.
This is the first Led Zeppelin song I ever heard, and it's my favorite. They named the song "Black Dog" because there was a stray black dog that kept wandering in and out of the studio while they were recording the song.
This song is a classic. When I was in college I was in the marching band and we did this one and we for a short time became dancers. It gives you stankface
Haters are gonna hate, lovers are going to love, Led Zeppelin is gonna forever ROCK!, New and Old fans alike will continue weeping from there soul.☺️✌️
Rollingstone Magazine's music critics at the time didn't like Led Zeppelin at first. I think it took the critics a minute to figure out how great they truly were. The public caught on really quick though.
Haze, I used to think that Zeppelin was the best band ever but now I realize that there are many best bands ever. Music is like an ice cream shop. You go inside and get what it is that you feel like having that day! 😃 Many different flavors and all of them are the best for what one needs or wants at the moment!
This was the song I cut my teeth on! My brother has this on 8 track and when he was away at welding school, I would sneak into his room and turn this all the way up! To this day when I hear this song I have to turn the volume to 11!
Led Zeppelin has stood the test of time. They are BRILLIANT. Can you imagine the old folks at the time (like people born in the waaay early 1900’s) having their children and grandchildren listening to this? Ah, no they wouldn’t have any of it. This came out in 1969.
I have to add,I first heard this a long long time ago...my youth,a less complicated time,to which I would go back in a second,the superb music,friend's and experience's...
I remember hearing this song on the day that I got my temporary driver's license when I was 16 years old. A friend of mine came over in his Dodge charger with massive speaker system in it and he blasted this song over and over! It was also the first time I ever smoked weed. He got me stoned and I came home. I remember laying in my bed thinking I could smell the lady next door making strawberry jello. I had to go mow my neighbor's grass and I mowed over the same place over and over until the old lady came out of the house and said aren't you going to cut the rest of the grass? Needless to say I was stoned off my rocker! This song holds good memories for me. Love your reaction Haze! Thanks so much for doing this. Peace and love to you and your family! ☮️😘💞 P.S. If you're not subscribed to Haze, you don't know what you're missing!!! Subscribe.... You won't be sorry. Haze has fabulous reaction videos! He's in my top 2 list. Always got to check out what Haze is up to!! He's the best! 👍👍🤘👨🎤
When you were asking how people felt when this first came out, man I was thinking we were just like 'watchin fireworks'! That's all I got to say about that!
Dude it is so freaking cool seeing you react to a great song like this it just brings such happiness to a multitude of people I know we're just digging on it watching you here's your stuff for the first time cuz we can kind of remember when we first heard it and how it blew us away man you know there's music like this. Just I don't know sometimes it was so good that it would make your hair stand up on the back of your neck that's the kind of thing that would happen dude it's so rather so much energy from something so original and something you just haven't heard ever before anything like that you know? Say here's a trip I didn't realize that the very first Led Zeppelin number 2 their second album the very first release they cut the sky to master the record and he did a really good job and he made it Extremely Loud and it had great tone but here is the problem this is for high executive in Atlantic Records his daughter had a real cheap little portable picnic player record player type setup and she complain to her dad that her record couldn't play cuz the needle jumping out off the vinyl so this executive took it upon himself to have the record remastered so if you have that original copy I guess it is extremely loud and really awesome what somebody should do is find a pristine copy that was never opened from that first pressing and then take that to a special Studio and play that record recorded in a Blu-ray high-resolution format and they released out on a Blu-ray disc that would be the shit man if only somebody would think of that because see the thing is they have Blu-ray Audio Only so all the data that would be used up doing high-resolution images is used only for audio signal see you again super high-resolution all right my super ultra cool ass dude Purple Haze bro I will definitely be looking for the next awesome reaction this is your suburban white Punk who used to hanging out in South Central listening to some decent Funk every once in awhile just telling you it's all good in the hood mr. Understood take care man
Character growth is important! Nowhere is this more evident than one of the live versions of this, where Plant changes one of the lines. "I don't know, but I've been told / Big-legged woman ain't got no soul... but I could be wrong!" Someone must have changed his mind somehow...
Hard to believe this is such an old song Really?! Zepplin’s songs are all like gold. Robert, Jimmy, Bonzo, and let us not forget the brilliant John Paul Jones on bass.
dude your reactions are epic and fresh and real ,your my faverite so far thanks for keeping it real rock on oh and when this came out in 73 ,there sound was unheard of up till that point.kinda like when van halens fist hit the airwaves,ahead of its time
If you're truly starting to dig them, become familiar with band members. It'll amaze you how talented they each are, and how each brings magic to the awesomeness that is Zeppelin. And then get into their live stuff.
Keep going with Zep! If you love them after a handful of songs, you'll go nuts for them after you hear the rest of their catalog. In my book, The Beatles & Zeppelin are the two greatest bands of all time (though they're many close contenders.) You could hardly assemble a better group of four musicians than Page, Plant, Bonham, and Jones.
One of my favorite all time songs is, Hey Hey What Can I Do. You won't find it on any album from back then. I had to call a radio station to request it and wait by my stereo to get a really lame recording of it. Anyway it's a little different, but I play it whenever I'm getting ready to go out. 😆 btw it's an original Led Zeppelin song. ❤✌ Check it out. Even if on your own time.
So much truth in your message. Have diversity in your music. And if you hate on music just to hate without reason. As my man said "your opinion is so invalid"
