It is great , but actually the celebration version IMO beats it....its just a masterpiece IMO . The experience they have and the way they bounce off each other is ......a lesson .
Led Zeppelin was my favorite band in the 70's. Kashmir put them over the top. You get lost in it. My friends and I talk about how we hope the younger generations find out about the great music we grew up with. I am so happy you did. PLEASE don't let it die. I had so many favorites. Go take a listen to Jimi Hendrix. IMO, THE BEST guitarist to this day. His National Anthem? WOW. There is a new kid that is catching everyone's attention now, Taj Farrant, AMAZING.
Dude you caught Zeppelin fever! I did 50 years ago. It never goes away! 😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Bonzo’s drumming was the feature instrument in this tune!
I just came across this guy’s channel and went back to his first Led Zeppelin reaction and worked my way forward. He went down the rabbit hole real fast and as we know, there’s no coming back. He seems like good company to have down here with us though.
@@johns. I totally agree His reaction came up on my feed a while back and it was Zeppelin so you know I had to check it out and I am proud of this kid. He really appreciates actual music!!!!! Long live The Mighty Zeppelin!!!!! GOAT !!!!!
I love watching and hearing people discovering the exquisite Led Zeppelin for the first time. I first heard them in 1970. Have heard no one better ever since then. Their music created a movement in the souls of humanity. 🌹
I never got to see Led Zeppelin live but seeing the 2007 concert it was great to see Led Zeppelin with Jason Bonham there 1 have a billion tickets requested for the 2007 concert
While Zeppelin has many other great songs, IMHO, Kashmir is their best song, so you've already reached their pinnacle. But keep on listening because even though this is their best, many others come close!
I saw Kashmir Reaction on my feed so I had to check it out. Great reaction! I was 12 years old in 1979. Though I had played this album since I was 7 years old, I think of 1979 because I had a Walkman cassette player. I wore the hell out of two cassettes. The whole Physical Graffiti album is like this, though this is my favorite Zep song. John Bonham on drums is legendary!
@@monapeters8003 Paul Davis is right. At the time of Celebration Day Robert was 59 JPJ was 61 and Jimmy was 63. They are in their 70’s now. Robert is 73, JPJ is 75 & Jimmy is 77 and they are still GOAT !!! (imho) 🎶🎤🎸🔥🇬🇧🎼
The best part about your reactions is how genuinely you feel it. I suppose anyone doing this likes music quite a bit, but you can tell which ones really get it and love it.
Heard this before was on radio in 75 at msgnyc 7th row Led Zeppelin mind Blowing live great concert 3 x total saw them 77 2x times ..70s were bad ass party times
This song is on my playlist and it cycles round every 2nd day or so and I've listened to it since I was 12 (thanks dad) and every time that plant hits that insane vocal the hairs still stand up on my neck. True musical wizardry, in my personal opinion its the finest song ever written
As many others have said, now that you have heard the studio version, please check out their two great live versions at Knebworth when they were younger and then when they came together for one night only for Celebration Day O2 concert. They are both gems but I have a special fondness for O2 concert as we hadn’t seen them together in years. Jason Bonham did his Dad proud. Kashmir was the highlight of this concert. I was a teenager in the 70s and they are my favorite band till this day.
This is what you get when you put 4 amazingly talented musicians together and each equally collectively giving 110%. Staring with powerful drum line, haunting vocals, beautiful keyboards backing the vocal, and guitar that ties it all together. This IMO, is the most complete Zep song from the band contributing as one.
As usual the live versions of this are amazing, especially Bonham in the 1979 Knebworth version, and his son Jason Bonham in the Celebration Day reunion concert.
Led Zeppelin will be your trusted-and-true musical friend for the entirety of your life.....all you gotta do is let 'em in. I've been listening to them as my go-to band since I was an 8-year-old in 1972. I can't believe it's been nearly 50 years.....where does the time go?!? LED ZEPPELIN FOREVER
I remember every time a new record came out the radio stations would let you hear the album. Everyone was listening to it. They were one of the bands best ever! They are among the greatest of artists.
Watching this with you is like hearing it again for the first time. At 13 and alone with my thoughts, this band truly captured me like nothing had. All these years later, I realized how having them so early in life has spoiled me for other rock bands. I found them in early 1980. By September of that same year, they would be over, leaving my little heart broken. Thank you for enjoying them. It brings me great happiness to see younger people finding them too.
i can see that you are consistently and suitably blown away by both Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin...as I was, and have remained for over 40 years. You GOTS good taste in rock young man.
Robert was asked what his favorite song was and he said Kashmir. You have to be truly dedicated to master your craft that reflects your unique style. It seems technology has dulled young peoples creativity and skill by allowing machines do all the work for them. Singing takes time to develop, if you have it vocally or you don't your choice of instrument and you will become one. Lots practice and devotion is key.
Have really been liking your reactions, especially your Led Zeppelin journey. It is funny to go to the comment section and the commenters come out of the woodwork in every reactor's Led Zeppelin videos saying you have to check out this or that live version. Every time! Actually you are doing great, you do not have to listen to the live concerts, you are a very young man, you have years to learn the Led Zeppelin albums and catalogue and then if you are a superfan you might want to look at some live concerts. The studio album versions are always the versions artists have designed to introduce people to their music.
This song is about a journey; and when you listen to it, you kind of feel like you're embarking upon some great odyssey or adventure. My favourite part of this trek occurs at around 3:54 when the riff changes into a sort of mystic and melodious, middle-eastern-type euphony. This symphonic part of the song (which also occurs at the ending) is quite prominent in the studio version of "Kashmir", but not so much in the live versions, unfortunately.
The album "Physical Graffiti" got a presentation on Belgian radio in a program called "Rudy's Club" and I was mesmerised. I felt like you look here after having bought the album and listened to it. Great vibes and you're lovely to watch as I relive a small part of my own past I forgot I had. Cheers lad. You're worth watching and listening to.
Fun fact...In the movie Oceans 12, Linus uses the first two lines of this song as his "input" in the Matsui meeting (with Danny and Rusty). Loving your reactions. Subbed. 👍
They were in their early 20's when they wrote and arranged the music. Every one of their songs are so different from the others. How did they do that? The GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME PERIOD
Plant is the greatest frontman ever. He wrote these songs at 19, 20 years old! In a ten year career, nothing else has come along to update rock, except for Nirvana in the 90s. BTW, these beats are REAL. No computers, auto tune, just perfection and raw talent. Best performances were live @MSG.
LED ZEPPELIN are THE FOUNDERS of a very new (here 1975) Music-Genre mentioned in the future "HARDROCK" or "HEAVY METAL" that has NEVER existed in this form on our little blue planet before! They were young (20+) and they wrote milestones in music - Genius!!!
Most bands that came out of the 70’s were great musicians/songwriters. LZ were above a lot bands. Remember 👑 Queen, ELO, Pink Floyd they were all great and they are still listened to this day. ❤️🔥
Yes this is the p!innacle of Led Zeppelin music in my opinion and the reason why they could do all this is because they are the gods of rock four people so talented they'll never be repeated💯 NEVER
So fucking true. Their record label just gave them free reign, not very common back then. The album Physical Graffiti had to be replace twice, then bought on cassette for the car, then bought on Japanese Import vinyl, and every release that Zeppelin has put out on CD. The first four albums I lost track of how many vinyl albums were replaced. How could we not? Lol
I'm 70, saw them at Tampa Stadium in '72. 70,000 fanatics, largest outdoor concert ever, beat the Beatles at Shea Stadium in '64. The cloud over the stadium GRASS was enough to keep you descending into another world. Sadly, the cops, then know as pigs, started busting peaceful fans who were just leaving, nothing more. Nam gave us a need to go to these shows. Whole country was tearing apart, much like today.
I remember listening to this as a teenager in the 70's and still dig it now. Zeppelin is something that doesn't let go after they grab you. It's truly a regret that I never saw them in concert. And Physical Graffiti is probably their crowning achievement.
For anyone who loves this song or Zeppelin and hasn't yet heard the Page/Plant live at Irvine version with the Egyptian band and Santa Monica City orchestra is really missing out on some of the greatest rock ever played but with a new twist and sound. IT IS THE CONCERT I REGRET MISSING THE MOST ------ RIP to the greatest drummer ever to rock! John Bonham
My fav is celebration day live, they are in their sixties and Robert can still scream it out! Drums are played by Bonhams son. Amazing performance. U must watch it.
I must be one of the lucky ones....I been listening to this BEAST of a tune, and other Zep tunes too, for years and can still get nailed to the wall like a first timer when it drops. And long may it continue! Great reaction, dude.
