They stole it from traffic... Mr fantasy.. lol.. zeppelin were a great Cover band... That's it. Collage artist. 👍🏻💯 You sycophants need to chill and understand the difference.
@@ProfessorKenneth I played the two songs together just to determine the similarities and it's slight. They are VERY different compositions taken as a whole. I was familiar with both and never noticed it before. In the 60s, there were many songs with similar sounds, riffs, lyrics, etc. Everyone was taking influences from other artists and putting them in their songs. In any case, whatever the origins of some of their songs could have been, there's no question Led Zeppelin were *excellent* musicians even in an era where musical excellence was more the norm than it is today. Whatever artists may have contributed to Led Zeppelin's repertoire, it was *this* band that played and performed all the songs featured on their albums, not those other artists.
Communication Breakdown was my 1st Zep song. Heard it on A.M. radio in my mom's '59 Ford on the way to school back in '69. Never heard of Zep before that. Never heard anyone sing like Plant before that day.
Jimmy's "break-up song". It's true, they didn't all sing together much; they obviously did on this, I know they do on Communication Breakdown, I think they do a little bit on Living Loving Maid, and Gallows Pole. Jimmy sings along with Tangerine, Whole Lotta Love, and Bron-Y-Aur Stomp although sometimes Bonzo would sing along on bits of Bron-Y-Aur when they played live. Sandy Denny sings on Battle of Evermore but Jonesy would sing along when played live. I might be missing a few more here but, that's all I can think of at the moment.
Talk about a debut album! I love the juxtaposition between the soulful church organ and the rather vengeful lyrics. Are you gonna do Black Mountain Side and Communication Breakdown separately or put them together? I enjoy how they flow into each other.
Their introduction (1st song, 1st album) to the world, starts with Bonham's triplets on the Bass drum (good times, bad times)!!! And then turns around and puts a drum Solo on their Sophomore album.....who does that!!???
by who? He is one of only 3 that Clapton ever allowed to play slide on Layla. The others being Duane and Derek. Not even Knopfler did.I reckon that's recognition enough!
Lovin this journey THE best way to introduce a ZEP newbie to the masterful genius that is LED ZEPPELIN song by song album by album I'm with you for the whole experience get ready for jaw dropping excellence
DJ, DJ,DJ...what are we gonna do with you man ....what are you gonna say after listening to the next 7 ALBUMS, not including their live stuff.. GOOD LUCK...LOL
kinda wish that Zep would have recoded a gospel album and redid all the classics... take em to church, up on their feet, down on their knees and jumping on the pews
I bought this in West London when it first came out after seeing them singing Communication Breakdown on TV. I can remember the shop and even what the weather was like. For me, this is their best. I bought the second album but skipped the rest. They used to use whole chunks of songs by the old Black blues artists but pass it off as their own. The British groups were admired in the States for paying royalties to these old men, often poor. Zeppelin were differentThey had so much money as to pay plenty to these people. . It put me off them.
By the way... is DJ the forgiving type? Just curious... idle curiosity. Because... one day... there will be a scream, "Wha-?!! That's all?!! That's the end?!!"
Will DJ be giving up his rap equivalents, by the way? And has DJ been re-listening to these entire albums without song-breaks, so that tracks that flowed together are flowing for him?
