One of the reasons I’m so down with you guys…you recognize the brilliance of JPJ. He never got the love the other 3 members got. But he should’ve because he’s a musical genius. He went on to do film scores and orchestration for other bands. The man IS music. Much love ❤❤❤
Be certain to listen to "Travelling Riverside Blues" ... it wasn't on the original Coda release but was added to the CD release in 1993, along with 3 other tracks.
In music, a coda is a concluding musical section that is formally distinct from the main structure, which makes it an accurate title. Jimmy took this song from their performance at the Royal Albert Hall (RAH) and reworked the guitar a bit by adding a sub-octivider effect to it so that growling, sub-level sound you heard was from Jimmy's guitar. It stands to reason that a song called "We're Gonna Groove" would be a concert opener, and it was exactly that until they switched it for Immigrant Song.
You guys gotta go through the 3 essential Hendrix albums: Are You Experienced, Axis: Bold As Love, and Electric Ladyland. Putting this request out there as a huge fan of you guys. Would love to see your reactions.
Great reaction guys -- the low growling you are hearing is an effect Jimmy used on his Les Paul - it's called sub-octivider. This is a great song - they are all playing relentlessly - it doesn't stop - it keeps chugging along...brutal !
Guys, check out the Wikipedia for this album. Has the recording origins of every song, writing credits, etc. Coda is the concluding passage of a piece of music. Perfect title.
This was a show-opener from their 1970 tour and was originally intended to be on Led Zeppelin II. It never made it on the album. Jimmy replaced some guitar tracks for this version.
I've been waiting for you guys to get to CODA, and I'm sure it'll be a while before you get to any live stuff. However, you should know that this song (We're Gonna Groove) and 'I Can't Quit You Babe' were both live recordings from their Royal Albert Hall show in 1970 which Page edited and added overdubs to... When you're finished with the album, I invite you to see/hear these two songs in their original glory as they opened that show. Here's the link... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o3XpvxdlhAA.html
I'll second and even third that with a suggestion that they cut to the chase and just WATCH the next track, "I can't quit you, baby"! It's the exact same sound, so why not see it as well, as it's a incredible performance and all.
Interestingly the beginning of Coda are two songs from the start of their 1970 Royal Albert Hall concert on Jimmy’s birthday, We’re Gonna Groove and I Can’t Quit You Baby. Although they actually play those back to back live. Glad you’re finishing up with Coda, it’s fitting. After this album you should definitely dive into their live stuff, including this whole 1970 concert.
Thanks for doing the CODA Album. It’s songs that they had recorded but didn’t make the albums. They were contracted for one more album so Jimmy put this together after John Bonham died. Some great songs on it.
I love this album. It’s a throw back kind of album. This seems to be a demo album selling it to record industries. This album needs to be considered among the rest of their albums.
You;re right, and described it perfectly--that "growling" is bad-ass! Is it Jimmy's guitar? Really glad you guys continued till the "studio" end, with "Coda" (They WERE contractually obliged to release another. Their Vault was deep.) When you get to #3, "I can't quit you, baby," I would say just go ahead and WATCH it, as the very good quality video is the EXACT same audio as the album (It's a sound check from a 1970 show). Kill 2 birds with one stone and all. Either way, the performance is Gobsmack City!
hey fellas, me again, the guy begging for the live stuff i know youll get to eventually lol. This is the first song on the royal albert hall dvd. They transition from this song to " i can't quit you babe" is out of this world. total early zeppelin blues performance the whole concert. Amazing to see! a few good songs on this album as well.
To avoid getting blocked when doing live stuff, react to their official live album releases, starting with the 1976 double live album The Song Remains the Same and ending with the 2003 album release of How The West was Won. They are both 🔥!!
@@AirplayBeats that is definitely a tricky hurdle to deal with. I wonder if instead of using a video of the song that's on RU-vid, going to the full concert and finding that song and time stamp would work? Idk I'm just spit balling. If nothing else, I hope you guys get to watch it on your personal time and maybe make a statement at the end of one of these. I'll put all my money in the fact that you'll be blown away lol. Thanks for what you do though!
Please include "Baby Come on Home", it was added in a later version of Coda. Robert channels his inner Aretha Franklin. I've read that the song was on tapes found in the trash.😮
One of the best Zep tracks there is and I'm surprised it ended up on a 'leftover' album, but at least we got it eventually. You should have a look at the live version of this from the Albert Hall London in 1970, it's epic!
He was probably using a Boss OC-2 octave pedal for guitar or bass, which came out that same year. It allows you to mix in a note one octave or 2 octaves below the note you are playing, or both. Then you could add distortion with a fuzz box.
Coda would have been most bands ultimate album!!! We’re Gonna Groove, Darlene and Bonzo’s Montreux were my favorites on the original. I think it’s rhythm section forward which I love. The future additions are fantastic. St. Tristan’s Sword plus other popular songs like B-side Hey Hey What can I do. Hopefully you guys give the deluxe edition a listen to, worth it.
You guys have great ears!!! I think the growling is actually Jimmy - maybe an over dub - but I could be wrong ☺ filmed Royal Albert Hall concert 1970 🔥🔥 Thanks for the reaction - there's still a lot more to discover 😁☮
Can't wait til you get to the Royal Albert Hall concert from 1970. They opened the show with this song and almost blew the arena up but then instantly went into I Can't Quit You Babe which brought the dynamics from about 120 mph to 2mph instantly.
I think that deep growling sound is jimmy on the tremolo arm of the guitar ( pushing it down low so all the strings go loose and crunch and growl thou the pick ups ) all my best to you and yours from Liverpool
Just so you know, this album was only 8 songs long originally. Though, they have added bonus tracks when they've rereleased it. Here's the wikipedia: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coda_(Led_Zeppelin_album)
Great reaction as usual. CODA is basically what you might call leftovers, but still good stuff for the most part. That said, don't forget the live double album "The Song Remains the Same"
In terms of music I usually take 'coda' to mean 'coming full circle', a kind of 'bringing it all back home' as in 12-bar rock 'n' roll when you hit the turnaround, like a spiral staircase, you're back to the same place but you're on another level...
This track is actually taken from a live performance that you could find on video. Is from 1970. What they did was added layers of guitars & bass. I highly recommend you finding that video. The live version without all the edits and overdubs is the way to go.
Coda was originally released as just a 2 sided album. This and I Can't Quit you Baby are from live recordings. The rest is a mix of "lost" recordings and live performances. People forget- albums could only be engineered 20 minutes on each side of the album. So the "lost" recordings could partially be stuff that literally just didn't fit.
That was actually the live at Royal Albert Hall version redux in the studio with added guitar solo and backing . The live track on video is actually better.
"Deluxe Edition" Some are repeats of what you have already heard with just a little change up.... and /or the demo cuts which are actually better than the original in my opinion.
Whenever I got a new apartment, and when i finally got my stereo unpacked and hooked up, "We're Gonna Groove" was the first song I'd always play. Sort of a way to make the space mine and let the neighbors know my taste in music.
This is off-topic but wondering if you guys could listen to "Cry Some More" and "You are the Show" by the Outlaws? They both are from their album Playin to Win. Excellent guitars and vocals Just a thought! Love what you guys do!!!!
What a way to start a much ignored album!!! ... That is actually a live concert recording with the crowd taken out and some overdubs. Jimmy tried to put one over on the record company with this and the third track. Both live recordings minus the crowd noise
A cover by Ben E. King of a live recording at Royal Albert Hall 1970 with new guitar overdub and audience elimination so that a song of 2:34 can be released to fulfill the record contract with the main company Atlantic Rec👎✌
this is an overdubbed live track from royal albert hall 1970. that entire gig is STELLER! heres the untouched live track ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o3XpvxdlhAA.html
