As to the question, "How popular were they?" The band disbanded in 1980 after the death of their drummer, John Bonham...27 years later, with Jason Bonham, the son of their late drummer on drums, they performed at a tribute concert in 2007 at the 18,000 seat, O2 arena in London. There were 20 Million requests for tickets...they were pretty popular!😊
“He’s the only man that can moan in my ear and it’s ok.” 😂😂😂 Agreed, Robert Plant’s voice is amazing. Loved your reaction. LZ is the GOAT. They were and still are extremely popular
Were they popular?? Incredibly! They were the biggest band in the world all throughout the 70's. They're absolute Legends. They're still very popular over 50 years later.
These were and still are the most popular and widely considered the best rock band of all time. They played in almost every genre and killed it live on every gig. Simply the best.
"he is the only man who can moan in my ear & it's ok"'...the funniest shit I have ever heard. They were...and still are...the greatest band of all time
The instrument you wanted to know about is a recorder, not a flute, but in live performance the sound of a recorder was produced by JPJ on a mellotron. In the studio recording JPJ played a recorder. On Robert's pants what you are just seeing is a worn out patch of denim. Later on in other performances it's covered by a small English flag stitched over it. It has been quite fashionable at times to have worn out patches on jeans and later jean brands would sell jeans with artificially created worn patches. LZ were indeed really popular and had some of the highest live audience attendances. They didn't issue singles or play much on TV though. It was all about albums and live performances and their fame spread by word of mouth. Later their record company issued some of their songs as singles in the USA but LZ didn't want to be confined to singles which usually had to be no more than 3 minutes long for radio play. At one time though, Stairway to Heaven was the most requested song on radio. Jimmy Page, the lead guitarist was the band's creator, and producer too. This is why the instruments have time when there is no singing - Jimmy's influence. The band produced a variety of songs where each of the members had their moments to shine. They were all equally talented at their instruments and Robert Plant could use his voice as an instrument at times.
You can't say that Jimmy Page was the band's creator--the lyrics from almost all of their songs were written by Robert Plant (even on the first album, where he didn't get credit because of some competing contract that he had). Jimmy *was* the band's "creator" in that he brought the group together--but as far as the work of creating their music, they were all involved.
@@ceridwenattwood5784 That's what I meant by creator. Jimmy created the band by putting it together. He decided the name for the band and he financed and produced their first album. He also had strong ideas of how the band should sound but they all contributed to that. When they gelled together so well, Jimmy was prepared to be flexible.
Every party I attended as a teenager in the 70's ended with this followed by Free singing All right Now!! LITERALLY EVERY PARTY! With everyone shouting "Does anyone remember laughter???". Led Zep were MASSIVE!!
This is considered the greatest rock band of all time. Instrumental and vocals. They were what all other rock bands would be compared against. No song is the wrong one to pick.
Yes, they were popular, I loved seeing them in 1973 at Kezar Stadium at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. I was a young hippy chick with long blond hair parted down the middle with a headband and a leather vest with long tassels. Huge bell bottoms and loving every minute right down to the end when they played this, then they released hundreds of white doves into the stadium. A very magical day during an incredible time. I do have to say that I feel very lucky to have been a teenager during the 60s. I was born and shortly after rock-n-roll was born, still loving it so much I am here watching you watch them. I am still soaking in every note.
Led Zep is arguably the best and most famous 60-70s British brilliance with iconic songs with sensuality from the front man for sure-blue jeans/leather on men was the culture of the hippy day and rock n roll he is also wearing a girls blouse
There used to be a thing called bands. Everyone in the band played real instruments and while the singer sang lyrics on most songs, there were also instrumental parts that allowed each band member to show their skills. These were commonly referred to as, "solo's". There were also times when the entire band would just play together in what was commonly called a "jam" or "jam session". Often different band members would improvise certain parts so that no two performances were ever quite the same. It was "live". There are still bands today, and there are still talented artists. They make music that is much more enjoyable than what can be digitally created. When bands create music, the lyrics and the instrumental parts are equally important to conveying the message and emotions of the artists. It's a shame that what's popular today is so manufactured and repetitive.
Thank you for explaining that😉. I also wanted these youngins. What bands were! My sister and I had a band in our teens, I played drums and sang harmony, my sister played guitar and sang, then we had key board, and bass! We played Jefferson Airplane,Janis Joplin my sister could hit those high notes, Animals, and some country,. So yeah these youngins need to learn before they speak😉😂🥰
An indication as to how good they were... listen to Kashmir LIVE at Celebration Day. Hadn't played together for 27 years, but when you hear the "1, 2, 3, 4" count into the song, that sonic boom you hear next (and the entire song) is absolute gold. Better than ever. That's raw and natural talent and passion for what they do. Popular? Starbucks is popular. Led Zeppelin is a religion.
My only comment about that is that Celebration Day isn't the original 4. John Bonham died in 1980--it's why the band broke up. The Celebration Day concert was in 2007, and featured the 3 surviving members and John Bonham's son Jason on the drums. And as far as I can tell it was a great show, and of course Jason Bonham does a fine job. But it's not "them" and I really think that for first time listeners, they should listen to the original 4. And for Kashmir, I *really* think the album cut is the way to go for first time listeners. Go to the "source material" before getting into the live versions and reunion sets and such. The only song I would say skip the album version and go straight to the live version is "Moby Dick" because John Bonham's drum solo during "Moby Dick" live is the stuff of legends. The other guys just flat-out leave the stage and let him get on with it--and boy, does he ever! I like the version from "The Song Remains the Same" but there are others.
They sold over 30 million albums just off the first 3 albums and then they recorded another 5 albums after, and toured the USA upto 7 times a year and were the first band to have their own Boeing airliner of their own to be able to Tour 25 gigs in 35 days, and still have the largest ever crowd of people to see one band on two consecutive nights which was over 250,000 people on both nights in a place called Knebworth in England in 1979, you'll be able to get most of the songs from those nights on RUclips.
That's an 8 minute intro before the drums kick in. The drums then carry away the whole song, combined with next-level guitar. Masterpiece from start to finish.
Aww give Robert and his "youthful exuberance" a break. He was in his 20s and heading towards being the photo next to rock star in the dictionary or on Wikipedia....☮️💜🤘🔥
This is what rock greatness sounds like. Jimmy Page, the BEST guitarist of all. Yes, of ALL. It was sheer magic, playing the guitar effortlessly, with such complexity. Robert Plant, superb vocals, incredible front man, whose voice blended perfectly with the guitar...Led Zeppelin remains unchallenged for the outstanding talent in one group.
Let's not forget the back half of the group! John Paul Jones, possibly the most musically accomplished of all of them, supplying bass and keyboards, to say nothing of little things like the recorders on the album cut of this song, or mandolin on some of their acoustic numbers, and some bass riffs here and there that can just blow your mind! And John Henry Bonham--"135 pounds of glory!" The most amazing rock drummer ever. Some people think Neil Peart (Rush) deserves that title, but I vote for Bonzo, hands down. He could play the hell out of the drums, and did, but what I have come to appreciate about him is he never overplays--he doesn't just go to town to show off. If the song warrants it, yeah, he goes wild. But if the song doesn't warrant it, he sets a more measured tone. And if you really want to see his mastery of *his* instrument, then Moby Dick is the way to go--and is the only time I would say watch it live; most other songs I would say listen to the album cut first. My favorite version of Moby Dick is the one from "The Song Remains the Same" (also where this version of "Stairway" comes from). You watch that and you will know pretty much all you need to know about Bonzo's drumming. It's a virtuoso performance by a true master. But all that talent loaded on stage wasn't all that made LZ what they were. Those 4 guys had flawless chemistry. It was the mix of all of them, bringing their talents to the table, that made them so good. It was...they were...magic. I've been listening to them for almost 50 years now, and it never fades, and it never gets old. There have been times in my life when I haven't listened as much, but I always come back and it is always both familiar and comfortable, but fresh and new as well. Watching reaction videos about these old familiar favorites of mine really helps me--I was going to say "see them with fresh eyes" but I guess I should say "hear them with new ears." And I really appreciate it. I love that kids and young adults are giving this music a listen, and falling in love like my friends & I did, back in the day.
It's saying something when people request music that's a half a century old. Love it when the pioneers of rock still hold up over decades and blows the mind of people just discovering it.
They were the best . The 12 string has 6 regular strings with a smaller higher octave string right next to it which gives a brighter richer sound Try The song Remains the Same and Rain Song from this concert He plays the first song on the 12 str. and like you mentioned The Rain Song is in a different tuning on the 6 str. Its my fav song from them you will like um
So glad this song impressed you! Great reaction! Love this tune. New Years 1979 a local radio station had contest for the top rock song of the decade from 100 up to #1. The winner got ALL 100 albums of those artists. The contest closed before the songs started. I was the first one to call with the right answer. I still have every one of those vinyls and the great artistry on the covers of some of them is as classic as the music. Thanks for doing this one.
Popular? Yes. This is maybe the biggest band of all time, and this one of the greatest songs ever over-played on the radio. They ruled 70’s rock radio. Icons I think you’d call them now.
jimmy improvised every solo he ever played!! he just goes somewhere else and lets the music flow though him, hes no teven looking most of the time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Led Zeppelin was the biggest most popular band in the 70's! They even became bigger than the Beatles! Even today there still considered the biggest band in rock! Go into the zeppelin rabbit hole you won't be disappointed! Get the Led Out!
As far as popularity is concerned Led ZePPeLiN kicked The Beatles off of the number 1 position and shattered their audience records. Also Their last concert had the biggest demand for tickets ever by any group for a single night showing.
You just listened to the greatest rock band ever!! It’s so much fun seeing younger people discover Zeppelin. Their musical diversity is unbelievable. Perfect storm of 4 of the best musicians on earth
- "How popular"? Considered by many to be THE GREATEST ROCK BAND EVER! - And, "Stairway", considered by many to be THE GREATEST ROCK SONG EVER! - Listen to more Zeppelin... you can't lose! Enjoy
When I was discharged from the service in 70' these guys came to town in the summer of 71' and needless to say filled all ten thousand seats.Everyone that was there seemed to know each other and they blew the place away.They been first in popularity since that time till even now
This band is “my everything” they were & are so popular (as you put it, that when they toured, they played in some cities for several nights. I saw them on 6-16 & 6-18 1977 in NYC. They didn’t have a piddly private jet, they had a 737 or 747!
Hugely popular. Sold millions of albums (they didn't bother with singles) and still selling. No pitch machines, no autotuning, you got what you got. Their manager, Peter Grant, was one of the first to bring money to the band, and he was canny about merch and stuff. Other managers before that were more about themselves, but Grant was a fan. Started in pro wrestling. Jimmy's double necked guitar - one was twelve string, the other was six string, and he didn't use it for many songs, because it was really heavy. Steve Howe of Yes preferred to use a twelve string on a stand, and wear his other guitar.
My favorite Zeppelin song next to the Immigrant Song. How popular is Led Zeppelin ? they are legend. They played stadiums and arena concerts. The best band of all time. Their concerts would blow you away. Great Reaction Shon❤❤ I wish I could take you back in time to see all the great concerts from back in the day. I am so glad I lived during this great time in music. If you want to see the best guitarist of all time then check out Stevie Ray Vaughan- Texas Flood live at the El Macombo . I have personally seen him play 20 minutes straight. We lost him in 1990 in a helicopter crash after he left a concert.
This was a band of not just four talented musicians, but four musical geniuses. The music they gave the planet is one of the best achievements of the human species. I discovered them in the 1980s, thanks to my older sister's boyfriend at the time, lol. I don't imagine I will hear another band as good as them before I die. Once in a century greatness probably.
This band was essentially when you take the best MVP of every position and stick them all on the same team. Doubt you will ever see this again. They simply were the best.
The only band more popular was the Beatles. Led Zeppelin ruled the album oriented world of FM radio back in the day, while the Beatles ruled the pop-oriented world of AM radio a little earlier. Stairway to Heaven has frequently topped most-requested rock and roll song lists long after it was released in 1971. To understand the impact of Led Zeppelin, I recommend reacting to the song "Whole Lotta Love" (preferably the studio version). It was the opening track on their second album, which was released in the fall of 1969. When listening to it, try to imagine a world where nothing that sounded like that song existed previously. That song kicked the door wide open for a lot of hard rock and heavy metal that came later. The level of swagger in that song is off the charts. From Wikipedia, an A&R executive from Geffen records had this to say: "In my opinion, next to the Beatles they're the most influential band in history. They influence the way music is on records, AOR radio, concerts. They set the standards for the AOR-radio format with 'Stairway to Heaven,' having AOR hits without necessarily having Top 40 hits. They're the ones who did the first real big arena concert shows, consistently selling out and playing stadiums without support. People can do as well as them, but nobody surpasses them." Edit: I see you already did react to Whole Lotta Love. Now I'll have to go check out that reaction! :)
Another great double neck guitar song is Eagles - Hotel California. It has a guitar duet with Joe Walsh on single neck guitar and Don Felder on the double neck guitar.. look for the live version from around 1976-1977.

Considered by many as the "GREATEST" rock band of all time.
Ditto
Words greatest band and the greatest song of all time. But check out the tribute to the band with heart singing this song
🐐 s
Idk about the greatest, considering the Beatles existed, but they’re still one of the best
Shon my brother, never interrupt a guitar lead by one of the GOATS....SERIOUSLY.

afaik that blew away the record and still is the record
WTH, was Zeppelin popular? LMAO
Ditto
Dude!!!!!!!!! They were and are one of the best rock bands of all time.
This dork pauses the solo...and never shuts up!!
"how popular this was"....lol brother these are THE MONSTERS OF ROCK.
Legendary
“He’s the only man that can moan in my ear and it’s ok.” 😂😂😂 Agreed, Robert Plant’s voice is amazing. Loved your reaction. LZ is the GOAT. They were and still are extremely popular
Were they popular?? Incredibly! They were the biggest band in the world all throughout the 70's. They're absolute Legends. They're still very popular over 50 years later.
Congratulations, you just discovered and witnessed the GOATS!!!! They never made a bad album, hits after hits after hits.....
They were one of the biggest if not the biggest group in the 70s. Most influential too.
all 4 of these guys were considered by many to be the best at their craft, and they had magic chemistry.
Also this song played at every school dance when I was in school 70-80s
Saw them live in 1969 at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia Md. They actually opened for the Who and blew them away
"When all are one, and one is all...
To be a rock and not to roll."

These were and still are the most popular and widely considered the best rock band of all time. They played in almost every genre and killed it live on every gig. Simply the best.

When Led Zeppelin was performing this - they were the toughest ticket to find in the world!
The instrument you wanted to know about is a recorder, not a flute, but in live performance the sound of a recorder was produced by JPJ on a mellotron. In the studio recording JPJ played a recorder. On Robert's pants what you are just seeing is a worn out patch of denim. Later on in other performances it's covered by a small English flag stitched over it. It has been quite fashionable at times to have worn out patches on jeans and later jean brands would sell jeans with artificially created worn patches.

I think the patch on Plant's jeans in this video was of an angel. I wonder if the angel was a patch placed in honor of Plant's deceased son.
@@mytiggertat You may be right. It's not all that easy to see without a larger image.
@@mytiggertat This was recorded in 1973. His son died in 1977.

Shon do yourself and all of us a huge favor and start from track 1 and listen to their whole discography. You won’t be disappointed I promise.
Exactly! This. ☝️
I used to do that when i had to work alone on a Sunday at one job. 9 til about 7. From the first cd to the last one.
This is considered the greatest rock band of all time. Instrumental and vocals. They were what all other rock bands would be compared against. No song is the wrong one to pick.

Honored to hear some rock ‘n’ roll history thank you great story
"SINCE I'VE BEEN LOVING YOU", in my opinion is their best song!! Blues and soul....incredible!
Fun fact, the other band members called Robert Plant "Percy" because of his poses and flaunting on stage
They were maybe the most famous rock band in the world in their day. Jetting around the world conquering everywhere they went
Led Zep is arguably the best and most famous 60-70s British brilliance with iconic songs with sensuality from the front man for sure-blue jeans/leather on men was the culture of the hippy day and rock n roll he is also wearing a girls blouse

This was a very popular band. The best rock band ever. Page, Plant, Bonham and Jones. Amazing library of music that is truly classic rock and roll.
The greatest pure rock band
Aren't they magnificent? Greatest band in history!! Extremely popular!! Forever!
LED ZEPPLIN were the GODS OF ROCK AND ROLL
Guitar solo EPIC!
An indication as to how good they were... listen to Kashmir LIVE at Celebration Day.

led zep are one of the most popular bands ever, sold millions of records. 300 million to be exact, so yes they are popular,

Biggest band of the 70's. Easily top 5 GOAT. Respect.
Groupies have said Plant was a 10 inches. So that's just the Plant before it grows. They were the biggest band in world.
So glad this song impressed you! Great reaction! Love this tune. New Years 1979 a local radio station had contest for the top rock song of the decade from 100 up to #1.

Arguably, one of the bet musicians showed what they could do in the early 70's. Geniuses in their own right❤
Popular? Yes. This is maybe the biggest band of all time, and this one of the greatest songs ever over-played on the radio. They ruled 70’s rock radio. Icons I think you’d call them now.
They are HUGE!! Considered to be the rock GOATS
Even after all this time, they are timeless... amazing artists each and every one of them....
jimmy improvised every solo he ever played!! he just goes somewhere else and lets the music flow though him, hes no teven looking most of the time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the key to zeppelin is theyre ALL incredible musicians, there are no weaker members!
Literally at the time the most popular band in the world.
His voice is another instrument ❤
Led Zeppelin was the biggest most popular band in the 70's! They even became bigger than the Beatles! Even today there still considered the biggest band in rock! Go into the zeppelin rabbit hole you won't be disappointed! Get the Led Out!
How popular ??? Its Zeppelin, pretty damn popular !
Zeppelin ruled the entire 1970’s. The same way the Beatles did in 60’s and Michael did in the 80’s
You already recognise they’re special! Follow your instincts. Imo, the best band that has ever been ❤
As far as popularity is concerned Led ZePPeLiN kicked The Beatles off of the number 1 position and shattered their audience records. Also Their last concert had the biggest demand for tickets ever by any group for a single night showing.
Fire reaction 🔥 great to watch you watch the best. They were insanely popular. Biggest band in the world for nearly ten years straight
You just listened to the greatest rock band ever!! It’s so much fun seeing younger people discover Zeppelin. Their musical diversity is unbelievable. Perfect storm of 4 of the best musicians on earth
- "How popular"? Considered by many to be THE GREATEST ROCK BAND EVER!
- And, "Stairway", considered by many to be THE GREATEST ROCK SONG EVER!
- Listen to more Zeppelin... you can't lose! Enjoy
When I was discharged from the service in 70' these guys came to town in the summer of 71' and needless to say filled all ten thousand seats.Everyone that was there seemed to know each other and they blew the place away.They been first in popularity since that time till even now
This is hands down ,the greatest rock band of all time, anyone tries to tell you different ,does not know a thing about music.
This band is “my everything” they were & are so popular (as you put it, that when they toured, they played in some cities for several nights. I saw them on 6-16 & 6-18 1977 in NYC. They didn’t have a piddly private jet, they had a 737 or 747!
Check out Jethro Tull, if you like the flute you can't go wrong
Were they popular? They are god status and we must speak in reverent tones when speaking their names. Keep playing their music, you'll get there 😉
they are the Mighty Zep.... and there will never be another.
I' m happy a new generation want to know Led, Elvis and many others.
Dimash...SOS mind-blowing
One of the greatest guitarist
To see how huge they are..watch the tribute special for led Zepplin.. The group Heart doing this song... 🔥🔥
Absolutely the greatest rock band ever:
My favorite Zeppelin song did just me now hey hey what can I do
Led Zeppelin, the original Rock Gods.
They are the best rock band of all time 🎉
Couldn't have lived without them (him)
They are the GOAT! Of Rock.
Hugely popular. Sold millions of albums (they didn't bother with singles) and still selling. No pitch machines, no autotuning, you got what you got. Their manager, Peter Grant, was one of the first to bring money to the band, and he was canny about merch and stuff. Other managers before that were more about themselves, but Grant was a fan. Started in pro wrestling. Jimmy's double necked guitar - one was twelve string, the other was six string, and he didn't use it for many songs, because it was really heavy. Steve Howe of Yes preferred to use a twelve string on a stand, and wear his other guitar.
Led Zeppelin were the gods of rock n roll
Love your reaction!! How popular? LOL World wide!
Greatest rock band of all time.
theyre so popular theyre probably sampled in like 65 percent of the songs you have ever heard
My favorite Zeppelin song next to the Immigrant Song. How popular is Led Zeppelin ? they are legend. They played stadiums and arena concerts. The best band of all time. Their concerts would blow you away. Great Reaction Shon❤❤
I wish I could take you back in time to see all the great concerts from back in the day. I am so glad I lived during this great time in music.
If you want to see the best guitarist of all time then check out Stevie Ray Vaughan- Texas Flood live at the El Macombo . I have personally seen him play 20 minutes straight. We lost him in 1990 in a helicopter crash after he left a concert.
This was one of the most popular sons of its time world wide
This was a band of not just four talented musicians, but four musical geniuses. The music they gave the planet is one of the best achievements of the human species. I discovered them in the 1980s, thanks to my older sister's boyfriend at the time, lol. I don't imagine I will hear another band as good as them before I die. Once in a century greatness probably.
Great reaction! Listen to The Joker by Steve Miller Band!
Universal peace. LOVE you
Im 72 yes and i saw Zep in Houston 10 times Awesome
GREATEST Rock N' Roll Band of ALL time !
Play led zeppelin you shook me and dazed and confuesd!!!
This band was essentially when you take the best MVP of every position and stick them all on the same team. Doubt you will ever see this again. They simply were the best.
The only band more popular was the Beatles. Led Zeppelin ruled the album oriented world of FM radio back in the day, while the Beatles ruled the pop-oriented world of AM radio a little earlier. Stairway to Heaven has frequently topped most-requested rock and roll song lists long after it was released in 1971. To understand the impact of Led Zeppelin, I recommend reacting to the song "Whole Lotta Love" (preferably the studio version). It was the opening track on their second album, which was released in the fall of 1969. When listening to it, try to imagine a world where nothing that sounded like that song existed previously. That song kicked the door wide open for a lot of hard rock and heavy metal that came later. The level of swagger in that song is off the charts. From Wikipedia, an A&R executive from Geffen records had this to say:
"In my opinion, next to the Beatles they're the most influential band in history. They influence the way music is on records, AOR radio, concerts. They set the standards for the AOR-radio format with 'Stairway to Heaven,' having AOR hits without necessarily having Top 40 hits. They're the ones who did the first real big arena concert shows, consistently selling out and playing stadiums without support. People can do as well as them, but nobody surpasses them."
Edit: I see you already did react to Whole Lotta Love. Now I'll have to go check out that reaction! :)
Thay wiĺ forever be the best band of all times and still are
Hello from Cody Wyoming! You're awesome... you have just witnessed greatness. If you keep reacting I'll keep watching😊
Every song 🎶 is DIFFERENT
Shoulkd see Heart honor them at the Kennedy Ct Awards. Phenomenal...Thanx for this young sir.
Another great double neck guitar song is Eagles - Hotel California. It has a guitar duet with Joe Walsh on single neck guitar and Don Felder on the double neck guitar.. look for the live version from around 1976-1977.
Wait till he sees a triple neck guitar
Were they popular? 🤯They are one of the top rock groups of all time! The benchmark of hard rock for generations!
