hi bro , happy new year to you and your family ✨🙋♂ i have a good history lesson for you ---> Iron Maiden - Alexander the Great ( with lyric ) and sure , Pink Floyd ( live to Pulse concert 1994 ) for your friend .. 😎👍
Loved the reaction to this song. It took me back to when I first heard it in the UK in 1971and your reaction was similar to mine back then. I could not believe what I was hearing. I still have my original 1971 fourth Led Zeppelin album (from which this song comes) and I still have a record player and still play it. Led Zeppelin had already produced stunning music, but this seemed to lift things to a higher level. One of you (the Rapper) mentioned how good the guitars sounded. In that era, every rock band worth it's salt had a superb lead guitarist. Led Zeppelin had Jimmy Page, Deep Purple had Ritchie Blackmore , Pink Floyd had David Gilmore, The Who had Pete Townsend, Queen had Brian May, UFO had Michael Schenker, Uriah Heep had Mick Box, The Rolling Stones had Keith Richards, Black Sabbath had Tony Iommi, etc. Anyway, thanks for the video. Your reactions took me back to another time.
love your reactions and you got roberts hair to 😂 . remember when i got my first zep record back in 72 at 5 years old and from then i was hooked on zep. but boy what a tragedy it was when john bonham died no more zeppelin that was so sad. keep up the good work man ✌
Please, please, please react to Roundabout by the band Yes. I promise you that you won't regret it! Bring your friend along for it too! It came out the same year as Stairway to Heaven, and you will totally be blown away by it.
I’ll tell you I went back and saw your reaction the first time you heard it. Brilliant! And had a better time watching your buddy listen for the first time. Watching his face change as the song went on was fantastic! I remember the first time I heard this song as a young teenager the last verse brought me to tears! I saw them live at Madison square garden in 76. Rick gods!!!! Check out live in 1973 at Msg since I’ve been loving you! Best video on RU-vid!
Just watching your friends face as he took in what was being served to his ear drums. I give it a year. "Rock n Roll" will be his new best friend and he'll leave the Rap Music behind. He had that "look"...I know that look. He's IN. Welcome to the club. "Boston", the iconic rock band from the 70's, 80's......and their debut album should be high on the rock intro list. Peace fella's!🤘
I consider "Stairway to Heaven" Britain's greatest rock-n-roll song of all time and Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird" America's greatest... so hard to choose though. Your friend has a TON of songs to go through!
The only disadvantage of starting your rock and roll journey with "Stairway" is that it's sort of at the top of the rock and roll hierarchy. So after "Stairway" it's only downhill from there. I heard "Stairway" for the first time in the fall of 1973 when I was 12. I remember thinking that it as "lush" and "melodic." I knew it was a song that would get remembered because it was so different. But the legendary status the song has now was not evident at the time. It would take years for the song to achieve this stature.
You should play Honeydrippers, Sea of Love. The lead singer is Robert Plant, lead singer of Led Zeppelin. Two totally different sounds lol. I heard it in high school when it first came out. Another good song is Black Betty by either Ram Jam or Spider Bait, it has killer drums
If you want to experience SRV in a different light then watch his performance of “Riviera Paradise live in Austin Texas “. It’s an instrumental piece and it’s a tune that you wouldn’t expect him to play, but man o man can this man put you in a trance with his music. I hope you can experience it cause it truly is a masterpiece. Keep up the good work. Keep this type of artists and music going because it is a dying art that needs to be made available to the new generations and expose them to how music was
You just gained one more sub. I would like to see you both react to an artist you haven't reacted to yet, who is a genre blender, he can rap as well as he can sing, the band is called "Falling in Reverse" and the song is "Popular Monster". The song was ranked number 4 in late 2019 on the US Billboard Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and number 1 on the US Mainstream Rock chart and as of 2021 has over 100 million streams on Spotify. The first question you'll ask is, what genre is this, it's Ronnie Radke's own genre. You won't have to worry about copyright problems, Ronnie loves the reactions. If you're lucky Ronnie, the vocalist of "Falling in Reverse" will react to your reaction, putting you in a larger spotlight. Believe me, you will want to hear more from this band. This video is like a short movie, like most of his videos. Always let "Falling in Reverse" songs play to the end, some of them trick you into thinking they're done, but some of their songs continue after a pause. Here's the link to "Popular Monster". ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jakpo7tj7Qw.html
I cannot believe that we have come from the heights of the Beatles and the 60s to the young listening to Rap and nothing else. Just how impoverished can you be musically? I saw an interview with a Psychiatrist who described the effect such music is having on the young. No beauty just aggressive sound of gang culture. Listen to music from the great Woodstock Festival in 1969. Soul Sacrifice by Santana, With A Little Help,From My Friends by Joe Cocker and Voodoo Chile by the astonishing Jimi Hendrix and see what WE were listening to at your age - and still do. Try Joni Mitchell sing Both Sides Now and hear what real beauty is.
Now that you've heard real rock music.... I grew up on this and we covered a lot of Led Zeppelin songs in the 70's. Next up you should try listening to Boston's first album....
Check out “Ramble On” from the Led Zeppelin II album (1969) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LzGBQerkvWs.html , and if you like Led Zeppelin and you haven’t heard Jethro Tull, listen to the Benefit album: J̲e̲thro T̲ull - B̲e̲nefit (Full Album) 1970 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fW9_NDR6z1I.html . It’s so fun watching young people discover and listen to this beautiful music. Happy New Year to you both.
Hey Brady my Brother! Regarding your disdain for Rap 1) The Genesis of black music pre Hip Hop is another thing entirely. Curtis Mayfield - Superfly ( 1972) 🔥 This is what you should expose your rap friends too! This has been Sampled countless times. All actual musicians, no auto tune.heavy lyrics funky, soulful & bad ass!! Checking every day for it!!
Watching the smile come across your friend's face is just nothing but delightful. And I can't even remember the first time I heard this, it would have been in grade school but I've heard it so many hundreds of times that I don't remember. But it was so incredibly popular through Grade School junior high high school and into college. It had a longevity to it and then at that age I started playing in a post punk band and I was more involved in like Punk and Post Punk and rockabilly type stuff in terms of music. But you know what, 15 years later, you can turn on a classic rock station and you're going to hear Stairway to Heaven you're going to hear it it's guaranteed, laugh. And I never get tired of it. Just right now listening to it I always pick up new slight details. And actually I don't know either of your name so I will just call you rapper friend, but rapper friend, John Bonham as your friend said, is regarded as one of the greatest drummers in rock and roll. And really he could hold his own in the Jazz world as well. He died way too early and it ended Led Zeppelin sadly. He was known for hitting really hard but he was just so incredible and he played hand drums he could play his whole drum set with just his hands he can play tablas, you know the Indian hand drums. But what I thought was interesting about maybe approaching it from a hip hop point of view is the beat. And did you know that some of his drum beats have been sampled heavily in hip hop? You guys should check out When the Levee Breaks from this exact same album as Stairway to heaven. It's based on a really old blues song but they give it their own complete treatment and it is mesmerizing. It is also considered a masterpiece. But John Bonham's slow deliberate drum part in there which goes crazy with fills at the end. That one in particular has been sampled and used in rap music a fair amount.
So I just left the other post we were commenting on and this song was recommended next. Click on the comments and here you are again. Promise I'm not stalking you!
@@XCaliKev lol, yeah. I just didn't want to exaggerate. If it were a fishing story or a dick size story well then yeah, but no, it really is delightful seeing somebody experienced this for the first time. I don't know why it's just so damn cool.
Jimmy Page, John Bonham, Robert Plant , & John Paul Jones are by far the greatest super group that's ever existed. These guys were collage age young men when they did were doing this. 16 to 30 predominantly,1968 to 80. John Bonham tops most any list as greatest drummer of all time. Jimmy Page tops the list or at least top 3 of every list of greatest guitart of all time. Though page was the owner & founder of the group. Producer. The leader & it was his whole vision that designed them. Robert Plant is always in a top 5 bracket of greatest rock vocalist of all time. Jones always a top 5 or top 10 rock bassist of all time. No other band has a line up of the most elite all in one. The fact most of the greatest of their catalog of songs were recorded in Hedley Grange, Jimmy's Home he purchased in the country. They band is the second greatest selling rock band of all time. 5th greatest selling artists of all time with 112 Million albums america, 300 plus world wide. And the fact they never released singles & only produced 8 albums in 11 years. Jimmy Page & John Paul Jones mixing & producing all their material. Them writing all their material. Jimmy Page vision to recreate the Yardbirds as a super group to take over the world is nothing like it. Knowing Jimmy their is a great movie in the works. Their had not never will be another group even close.
I can't imagine having only listened to Rap all my life, and then hearing this. I think my brain would have to be re-wired first, otherwise I'd be afraid I might blow a fuse.
Great reaction guys!!! First heard this song, in art class at school, back in 1971. Our art teacher let us bring in albums to play during art lesson and my mate brought in the new Led Zeplin 4 album and played this track to the class. My reaction then was pretty much the same as yours!! My go to record if I need a pick me up!!
Keep turning your friend on to rock music! Show him Pink Floyd's,"Comfortably Numb" from the Pulse concert; Santana's "Soul Sacrifice" from Woodstock, Lynard Skynard "Free Bird" from Oakland in '77 to get him started. It's always fun seeing people react to rock for the first time! These live performances are epic.
Dude don't show him live stuff first...that's ridiculous...got to know what the studio version is like before live stuff...not everyone likes live stuff. Just my 2¢
@@Lordduncan012270 I believe you're right, unless the band is Queen! They were just as brilliant on stage, besides Freddie absolutely adored his audience! The greatest frontman to ever grace the stage!
It’s crazy most kids just listen to what is popular at the time and rap was the most popular at my high school.I was different as I listen to music I loved rather if it was popular or not
I was 13 in 1970. Huge fan of Zep, The Who, Stones, Steely Dan, Aerosmith, etc etc. lol There was so much amazing music that decade and late 60s, all with a signature sound. I always felt I was blessed to have grown up then. Music is my oxygen.
I first heard Zeppelin when I was 15 and saw then live the following year. It was an awesome concert! I would suggest The next band to introduce him to is Rush Xanadu from Exit Stage Left which you reacted to so he can see REAL musicians performing. Working man live in Cleveland would also be an excellent choice and one you haven't reacted to yet. I like your Blue Jays cap. Geddy Lee from Rush is a huge Baseball fan and can be seen at Blue Jays games since they are from Toronto. Cheers
I'm 72, and have listened to Led Zep, Pink Floyd and dozens of ARTISTS back in the 60's and 70's. We were immersed in so much great music that the youth of today never heard of let alone listened to. Great review, saw your mom doing PF and it was righteous... Nice Job!!
@@jeanettecameron7530 Hi, Jeanette honey. And not just our amazing music, but weren’t things so much more fun back then. Of course, we were young back then and now we’re not, but I know that you, like me, have so many wonderful memories of those days.
How refreshing to see 2 young men enjoying such an iconic rock song. I was lucky enough to be a teenager in England during a time when Glam rock was around as well as groups like Led Zep and Pink Floyd. I wonder what you would make of UK glam rock greats, T.Rex and Bowie. So much good rock music out there, keep having fun discovering it.
Well DONE! Well Done!! I really like watching your reactions to all this great music. Same reactions I had when I was your age. Take a look at my vids on my "Crosswind" and "Rock n Roll" playlists. I actually played in the early 80s through the 90s in rock bands and it was great. Your comments and insights are very interesting and some takes I had never thought of. Looking forward to more of your vids, Keep 'em comin'!
Ditto what Filmmaker Guy said. Watching people discover the greatest music ever recorded and seeing the expressions on their faces is just awe-inspiring. It makes us older guys feel good about the youth today, that they're capable of such enlightenment.
Always love the look on rap fans faces after they hear actual Musicians, vocalists using melody, instrumentalists, talent, versus push button studio crap.....
I was ya'lls age when this song came out... can't even imagine how may times I've heard it since, and it still is one of the very best ever. Happy trails!
LIVE VERSION! @ Must 1973 madison square gardens, pure pleasure watching finger tips "" blessed by tha' Almighty "" Jimmy Page. Another great tracks to give u @ tingle in yr loins! Phil collins LIVE VERSION in tha' air tonight IN HD! / ELTON JOHN ROCKET MAN @ OF COURSE PINK FLOYD Comfortably numb LIVE VERSION PULSE CONCERT, LUV TO SEE BOTH YR REACTIONS TO THESE. 👋❤️😊🇬🇧Xxx.
You performed a miracle! He is one of us now, one of us now (in a creepy voice). It was amazing to see a smile light up his hithertofore expressionless face. Welcome, Bro! Thanks for keeping great music alive! God Bless!
Wow, not only a _Zep_ virgin, but a *Rock virgin!!!* Next, I suggest you guys react to the greatest Zep track of all-time, *"Kashmir".* (Be sure to use the studio version!)
Play him the video of the live version of “Stairway To Heaven” from 1973 at Madison Square Garden. The guitar solo is longer and much better. Or better yet, have him watch the Led Zeppelin concert movie “The Song Remains The Same”, it’s on RU-vid for free. Few bands were better than Led Zep live, they didn’t need an outrageous stage show, the music was enough.
I normally don't like live performances because they're typically not as good as the studio version. But I think their live version five decades ago is even better than the studio version.
I was 18 years old when this song was released. My friends and I would gather at someone’s house… Whoever had the new album at the time… We would listen to the album, pass it around, read the lyrics, smoke pot, etc. We were so blown away by stairway to heaven, that we just sit in silence trying to process it. I will never forget the first time I heard it.
I'm glad guys like you are listening to this stuff because you never know what you're going to like until you hear it, and your bringing back music that should have never died in the first place. Rock music comes from blues and jazz, and rap and hip hop come from rock because of RUN DMC. So alot of what you guys listen to these days runs deep through rock music, so keep listening because you might hear alot of stuff sampled from this music in the stuff you listen to now. And try live NO QUARTER from Led Zeppelin off the soundtrack Song Remains the Same, I find it better than the recorded studio version.
You two should react to "Walk This Way" by Aerosmith. It's the earliest resemblance to "rap" I can think of, even though the song totally rocks. After you react to the original "Walk This Way", then react to the Run DMC (with Aerosmith) version of it that was recorded several years later. Make sure to watch the video version....it is a classic video where rock and rap merge.
Hey Brady Aerosmith's " Dream On " ( 1972) Is a close second to Stairrway( similar type of Epic Anthem) and essential reaction! 70's Aerosmith were like the U, S equivalent of Zep & the Stones. Aerosmith inducted Zep into the RocknRoll Hall of Fame and they performed together .Funny 2 r Famous Rap tracks Sampled both Stairway & Dream On.
If you both want to hear something amazing and expand your mind, check out The Good the Bad and the Ugly/Ecstasy of Gold by The Danish National symphony Orchestra. They really knock it out of the park - there’s over 100,000,000 views on RU-vid. There’s also reactions from rapper’s hearing this for the first time as well and they are blown away.
Great reaction! Hip Hop is the most popular genre of music in the US today. Hip Hop, which can contain rap within it, originated along with rap in the early 70s making this genre of music 50 years old... Rock music died out around the 50 year mark. I wonder what will be next :)
@@sueparras6028 Well no music genre ever actually dies. You can still find rock venues and heck, jazz venues today. But in terms of the dominant popular genre, rock's day has come and gone just like Jazz's. But Rock and Jazz are certainly still around.
I moved to Arizona for about 10 years when I came back to California my brother had converted my young cousin from Hip Hop to classic rock like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple Etc.
there was a recent poll to make the best best ever by picking individuals. robert plant was voted BEST EVER singer john bonham was voted BEST EVER DRUMMER jimmy page was voted 2nd best EVER guitarist and john paul jones was voted 3rd best bass player EVER. no other band got ANYWHERE NEAR that level of talent and chemistry, they were ALL top 3 ever!!!
See your rocking the Toronto Blue Jays Hat and that's awesome....much love from Toronto Canada... Your friend has been given a gift from you and believe it or not he will thank you fifty years from now ...what a gift !!!!!
