Listen to the whole album please! It's so good...

This recording and engineering is amazing on this album. So good and so many memories with this album. My first live concert at 15, Fleetwood Mac Rumours. Day on the Green, Oakland 1977. Great show.

Thank you !

Fascinating stuff.

The Jeff Beck group with the blonde singer Rod Stewart on vocals released an album called 'Truth' around the same time of Led Zeppelin 1. The songs were similar to the songs on LZ 1 but not as good and Beck was upset. It was like he and Page had the desire for the same type of sound but Zep's album was better. I suggest you guys give Truth a listen and you'll understand what I mean. Great review! I'm enjoying this ride of Zep's history with you two. 🥰

Frank was never evil, just a good time F boy that found his golden ticket. He did keep looking for cures, despite the lack of vetting babysitters. Then he monitized Tommy, for better and worse.

Loving Elton's keyboard driven pinball

It is a little sad, and telling, that when I grew up I would never think of people getting shot going to the store.

Great music but Page super sketchy, like Tyler into underage girls

ARE YOU COMPLETELY CRAZY , TO LAUGH , WHEN A KID TRIED TOUCH IN A HAND OF A UNKNOWM MAN , BECAUSE FEEL MISS LOVR OF THE FATHER DEAD . WHAT YOUR PROBLEM MEN ? . SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH.

LA: This is going to be GREAT! My 56 yr old sister and I (60) giggled at your reaction to this Behind the Music. Absolutely delightful, as always. You guys are the best. 🫶🤘

Now I'm awaiting part 3. 🥰

At one show an employee of the venue slapped Peter Grant's son and got his ass beat by Grant, Bonham, and a couple of other Zep's roadies. They were arrested, paid a fine and were released. Don't mess with Grant's son or the members of Zeppelin!

YAY!! I've been waiting for this! Thanks La and Che!!

So been waiting for this. "Becoming Led Zeppelin" movie is supposed to be released soon. Authorized by the band members.

Baroness Eva von Zeppelin was a decendant of Ferninand von Zeppelin, who was the namesake and pioneer of the zeppelin type of aircraft. She was honored this band was named after her family, until she saw their first album cover which had a picture of the Hindenburg disaster.

Stop teasing us and release part 2, guys soon!! 🥰

I love this documentary look behind the LZ scenes. Yes, it's really crazy all the rock legends who died within 1 year of each other, Janis, Jimi & Jim. I can't imagine what it was like for rock fans to lose them all. Then the Beatles breaking up, I hadn't thought about the timeline with Led Zeppelin and those events & how it opened rock up for them. Interesting points about Suge Knight & Peter Grant, too, lol! Great reaction, guys! Thank you.

Led Zeppelin rose pretty fast, compared to The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who... They played their first gigs in the Fall of 1968 as Led Zeppelin ... and had a #1 album ('Led Zeppelin II') by the Fall of 1969... Granted that Jimmy Page had been playing in The Yardbirds since 1966... (The Beatles as a rock n' roll band started playing in 1960 and were signed by 1962 and a global phenomenon by 1964) The story of Led Zeppelin playing on Danish TV... An old woman Baroness Von Zeppelin was outraged that Led Zeppelin were using her family name and demanded the performance be stopped... She came to the TV studios and freaked when she saw the album cover on display and created a huge fuss right up to the moment Led Zeppelin started playing live on camera... And they were truly the people's band... the media hated them and always compared them to The Beatles or The Rolling Stones... and they endured hostile press coverage including reviews that trashed their albums in print... By 1971, Peter Grant had enough and decided that Led Zeppelin would not do any more press or interviews... and no TV appearances... If u wanted to see Led Zeppelin, u had to buy a concert ticket. And that made fans even more devoted to the band because unlike The Beatles, Led Zeppelin were never splashed all over magazines and print media and that increased demand for the band. Back then, u would always see The Rolling Stones on TV performing or doing interviews... However, they were selling considerably less than Led Zeppelin in the early 70's. One of the reasons they recorded 'Led Zeppelin III' was to expand the band's sound... they didn't want to be a 'heavy rock' band exclusively - they wanted to be known for their variety, much like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones... But the album undersold... However, it did give Zeppelin more musical parameters to work w/ which resulted in their biggest album 'Led Zeppelin IV' in 1971.

Peter Grant was invested in Led Zeppelin and he suffered the same hardships as the band on tour... He never took more than what was owed to him and made sure that the 4 members were paid and taken care of... That was how Led Zeppelin became millionaires within a few years. He got the lucrative record deal from Atlantic Records w/ a good royalty rate... Then, he demanded the label pay the packaging & artwork costs (Led Zeppelin's record artwork were very intricate after 'Led Zeppelin II' ) Peter Grant saw the numbers Zeppelin drew in concerts (This was when tickets were $5 to $10) and it was 2-to-3 times more than The Rolling Stones... So, he demanded 90% of the concert revenue when Led Zeppelin toured and had a goon squad to help him collect... The promoters protested but gave in - 10% of Led Zeppelin was not much but they got to book the biggest band in the world. However, years later... the gangster management and chaos turned the promoters against Led Zeppelin. At some point in 1977, they decided that Led Zeppelin were not worth the trouble and would not book them in the US. Other bands were not as lucky... Black Sabbath were signed in England by late 1969 and the band changed managers to Patrick Meehan from Jim Simpson... Apparently, their record contract gave their managers the majority of royalties from record sales (Aerosmith also discovered that their managers in the 70's had 50% of their song publishing rights and royalties) ...Furthermore, Sabbath was not invested in marketing their albums the way Zeppelin were; that was how their 2nd album 'Warpigs' in 1970 was re-titled 'Paranoid'... and their 4th album 'Snowblind' was re-titled 'Volume 4'... without the band's permission. Ozzy Osbourne said that they were soon living in mansions, partying w/ drugs and booze and groupies, money to burn by the early 70's... However, former manager Jim Simpson sued the band, and Black Sabbath discovered that their finances all went to manager Patrick Meehan and his company... For example, Meehan collected $250K for Black Sabbath's gig at California Jam '74 and paid each member $1000 each. In 1974, they discovered that the band was broke... They cut ties to Meehan, only for him to sue them and they had to take a year off to attempt to self-manage Black Sabbath without much success. Ozzy grumbled that the first 5 Black Sabbath albums were made to make music... and the last 3 were made to pay the lawyers...

The Jeff Beck Group had the young blonde singer, Rod Stewart.

Some of Steven Tylor’s narratives is wrong. The bands first rehearsal was on August 19,1968, Plant turned 20 the next day. Bonham had turned 20 on May 31st. They also did 6 gigs in Scandinavia, as the New Yardbirds, in September of 1968. Recording for their first album, which Page & Grant funded. They completed the album over 4 nights, about 30 hours. They worked at night because it was cheaper. The two brilliant moves, getting complete control over all their music, including when they would tour & advertising. Next great move, was the 90% on ticket sales.

English history

Good job, guys. Will watch your other vids

I remember being in middle school, maybe 15 years old, and the teacher asked us what music we were listening too. I mentioned this song Rhiannon from a band called Fleetwood Mac. I was excruciatingly embaressed when every other kids howled with laughter. I'm smiling right now thinking about those losers today😅

This documentary was just fantastic. Thanks for bringing this to our lives.

My Dad had an album of instrumentals called 'The Incredible 12 String Guitar of Glen Campbell". It was amazing.

We all make stupid money mistakes when we're young. Just not at this level. 😅

You can see why the English bands started to explode. American music all sounded the same. In the 60s, this polished studio sound faded to the folk rock scene and the Beatles. Ultimately Humans relate to real Humans. My lowly opinion.

❤❤❤Robert ❤❤❤

Peter was the Godfather of the music business! He made Atlantic Records an offer they couldn’t refuse! 😁

Sinatra was a big band singer with Tommy Dorsey's Band in 1940.

Read WHEN GIANTS WALKED THE EARTH. Excellent book that tells the whole story!

The performers getting most of the money, the way it should be...

When the first album hit it was HUGE, but only for those who knew what it was. It wasn't on the radio. There was no Internet. You had to have the album and a turntable to play it on. Not everyone did. And having Jimi and Janis die so close together was really devastating. I remember those two days clearly, and that was long ago. So when Zeppelin hit it was a revelation, and exactly what we need to lift us up again.

Great, can't wait to see part 3. As far as the alleged assault on the journalist IT was most likely the crew and roadies that were out of control. Grant and Bonham both had mean streaks and Bonham who by all accounts was a family man who was lonely on the road could be mean and violent when drunk. Love Led Zeppelin and really enjoying this series

If you want to hear more JPJ, you should react to Them Crooked Vultures, a supergroup he was in with Josh Homme and Dave Grohl. They mad one album and it’s a masterpiece. “No One Loves Me and Neither Do I” would be a great introduction to them

$200,000 in 1969 equals about 1.7 million today. So each member got about 400k. Not too shabby.

"No, 'Shugg is the Peter Grant of the...' is how it is." Well said La.

Great book is "Hammer of the Gods" by Stephen Davis, which covers Grant's management and the violence Plant mentioned.

Twenty years ago I took a contract to work on a boat in Florida, it was hard work and long days. I shared a hotel room with 4 guys and we were tired. We were watching tv and decided to hit the hay just then this special came on the tv and we all sat down and marvelled. Zep forever

Listening to you 2 talking about the media being against Zep but the people begging to differ, reminds me of "The Great White Hope" as Jesse Peterson calls him! LOL

Nobody really like them at this time. Early 70’s was such a diverse time in music. Zeppelin, Elvis, Johnny Cash, Jackson 5, CCR, etc. Just change the station and you could change your mood. 💜💜💜

5 dollars was expensive back then Laa and Chee!

Peter Grant also managed Bad Company

Just curious, where do they fall among your favorite rock (or whatever) bands? No judgement! 😁

Thanks great reaction as always!!!!

In case you guys didn't hear 😊There is an authorized Led Zeppelin movie coming out. I believe the end of this year. Maybe you wanna check that out also

When they spoke about “Heavy Metal”, it’s interesting to consider that Sabbath released their debut around the exact same time as Zeppelin was releasing theirs. If I recall correctly, the really hard hitting stuff was sort of sparse, and usually bands would have some heavier hard-driving tunes here and there, with Sabbath being the consistently hardest of those times. Other hard rock parallels would be some criminally underrated and lesser known Stooges (w/ Iggy Pop), Mountain, Blue Cheer, and the band that got the Stooges signed, the same band playing in the park when the infamous Chicago Democratic Convention Police Riots of 1968 broke out, The MC5. Another hard hitting rock band on the more traditional rock style was The SONICS out of Seattle, WA, and most anything by Link Wray, who really pushed his amps into feedback levels when playing Live. Hendrix passed in ‘71, so he was melting minds in ‘69 (Same year as Woodstock) when Zeppelin’s debut was released. Jimi could hit real hard and heavy, but would also take it in different directions, with slower blues numbers or spacey jazz interludes. People cite The Beatles “Helter Skelter” as a precursor to Metal, but as far as song structure goes, I’d say you really can’t discount The Kinks early singles “You Really Got Me” and my personal fav “All Day and All Night” really set the pace for that to happen. At this same time, you also had some other hard hitters like The Who “My Generation” (among others) and CREAM’s album “Disraeli Gears”, which is definitely on the heavier side, production wise. Alice Cooper is very noteworthy and often overlooked when people talk about metal. His band was kind of disjointed on the first two, but really came together for some solid heavy albums both in 1970, “Love It To Death” and “Killer”. Both are 10/10 and totally worthy of reacts going song by song, straight through. Lotsa good bands began jumping on the bandwagon after late 70’s, and as early as ‘74, The Ramones formed and then released their debut which became something of a template to punk rock, influencing innumerable bands to form, just as the Beatles had, some 20+ years earlier.
