Honestly, this could possibly be the greatest song ever written-and it never hit the airwaves. Probably because it’s 10 minutes long.
10 years gone
No one ever heard it unless they bought the album but I say this live performance just beats the studio version hands down. I can never get over how great they were live. Tight as hell.
Agree with you, it's epic, greatest rock track of all time imo.
I think it helps to have heard the album version to really appreciate this song live.
Facts
Can you just hear John Bonham on those drums. He's a beast!!!
Greatest drumming performance in rock history. The power and precision is unmatched.
Sometimes it sounds like he's playing with hammers.
RIP
Hammer of the Gods! John Bonham
🔥 Jimmy Page 🔥 John Bonham 🔥 Robert Plant 🔥 John Paul Jones 🔥
Dude, you have gone head first into some of the best rock songs of all time. Much more to go. Your passion and enjoyment relight the spark in us old boys who jammed on this when it came out!~!
Thats absolutely Truth Tim, us Older Rockers have worn Zeppelin Music out on different formats and watching a younger generation diggin it is Cool. Chills up and down my spine
This is probably my favorite reaction video of anything period. I absolutely adore how much he gets into the song, but how can you not?? Led Zeppelin were on a different level compared to anyone else, past present or future
You nailed it. This old man is digging every episode.
Exactly what I was thinking. This is their highest achievement and that's saying a lot. I can never get Achilles out of my head and I could put it on a loop for hours. One of the many cool things about Zeppelin is that no two performances are the same. When I was a teenager in the late 70s, early 80s, my friends and I would scrounge the record stores in the Village for bootlegs just to hear yet another version of any Zeppelin song..
@@kellijones6481 they are quite a way behind 'yes' even pope has said the best music he has heard was 'yes' music....
Now THAT is what REAL musicians look like!!
Over 500,000 people altogether attended this two night show! They hadn’t been on stage together in 2 years bc Robert lost his son. John Bonham talked RP into going back to the band and…THIS! If you notice, Bonham barely had to look at his drums, there was something magical between him and his drums. Mind you this was at the end of a 3-4 hour concert and he is this powerful-NO ONE will ever even touch Bonham! Jimmy was channeling something special here too! Even through his addiction he was a master musician-a genius guitar god! Still is to this day. Led Zeppelin Forever 🤘🏻
Bonham is on fire! The whole band is firing on all cylinders but good lord, Bonham was so bad-ass!
He was on fire on the '75 tour, '77 tour like 6/24/77, hitting those machine gun noted outta the gate w/ TSRTS.. Baddest drummer ever - simply amazing.. he was the engjne
The Hammer in the Hammer Of The Gods.
His drumming on this track in general, but especially here is completely out of hand - to hold that beat and do all those fills for like 10 mins is insane.
John Paul Jones...the unsung HERO !!!!
He was such a huge part of all their music!
This is just bloody UNBELIEVABLE!! At the absolute top of their game.
If you can believe it, this concert at Knebworth was decidedly when Zeppelin was on the downturn. A little over a year later, Bonham was dead and the band broke up.
So if this performance was Zeppelin near the end, just imagine how amazing they were in their prime, in the early-mid 1970s.
@@TheLanceUppercut 3 of the 4 1979 shows are as good as any, particularly the Copenhagen gigs. The only subpar night was the 11th of August. They were much worse at the start of the 75 tour and much of 1977 for me.
Very complex arrangement with multiple layered guitars made this virtually impossible for four guys to pull off live, yet somehow they managed to..
Page was once asked why didn't they get a second guitarist on tours. His reply: "Wouldn't look right to the audience"
Page wrote this legendary orchestration of multi-tracked guitar parts and then had the audacity and ability to pull it off...and we were surprised...but we shouldn't have been. I saw the 77 tour and everything was great, but Presence was the highlight and they played all of it...and so much more for 3 and half hours... including acoustic set in the middle...never forget Achilles that night, it's was the highlight for sure.
He made it sound multi layered but it's not. Split personality time warping genius
They are the modern day “Mozart’s of our time!
So, Beethoven for sure... 🎶👀😍
Could be. Being able to record anything any time might change how history is made. We know of a handful of greats from the past. I imagine there were plenty of great musicians that were never mentioned by history. Have to look through libraries of published written music and play them, and there will be jewels. And improvisational traveling Gypsy flamenco guitarists blowing peoples minds.
Maybe Zep will be taught about in music appreciation in 300 years. I'm leaning towards the Beatles and Bob Dylan being the big guns from our era.
Trying to remember 1979?!!.
I was 22 ,I'd moved on from the old Gard, thought they were Dinosaurs!
I was into the new wave of music, Talking Heads etc.
But Iv'e come full circle in the Last couple of years!!
At the age of sixty four Iv'e come to realise what an amazing band Zep were, and I'm absolutely loving them!!
Forgive me Father for I have Sinned!!..
You are forgiven man! Rock on!
I grew up in 70s. We're the same age. I was completely taken over by music at age 6. Played piano and drums. When I was a teen, I listened to everything. Steely Dan, Allmans, Beatles, Stones, Zep, Johnny Winter etc. I even got into Return To Forever and Stanley Clarke. I still have eclectic taste and on the hunt for music that moves me. TONY it's never too late to get into great music.
I’ve said it before just remember there are only 3 instruments being played .
Utterly astonishing
Four--Robert certainly uses his voice like an instrument, and definitely needs to be counted. But I get what you're saying, and it is astonishing. Most bands couldn't get that kind of sound out of twice as many instruments!
The lyrics are something out of a Greek novel from 2000 years ago. And that galloping bass riff ! 🔥
Bonzo at his pinnacle!! RIP 🙏💙
The original studio version features layer upon layer of guitars overdubbed - it's pretty amazing how Jimmy is able to distill all of that down into one essential guitar part for the live version...
While still on smack it’s astonishing.
Exactly!!!
Jimmy would reference his “army of guitars” in the studio, where he could layer 2 or 3 or more guitar tracks on top of each other. I believe the studio version of this song has 6 or 7 guitar overdubs! To attempt to play it live, with one guitar, is brave to say the least… but Jimmy Page is an army of one… and he makes the impossible happen.
If I member correctly, I read somewhere that it was more like 12 overdubs, which makes this all the more remarkable
Even in the throws of addiction, Jimmy still shredds
💯
BY FAR the best reaction to this song I have ever seen! PERFECT!! A+++ 😃
Bonzo beats those drums like they owe him money. When I listen to Led Zeppelin so do my neighbors. Love your reactions Pop. God Bless
I think we Zeppelin fans should start our own country😂😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
at face value, robert plant is 50% of the band
its only once you really listen to them that you realize each member is an equal 25%
Never thought they would play this song live, EXCELLENT!!! just shows you Led Zepp is unbelievable!
Oh yea they played it from 68-75 the longest version is almost 50 minutes long. The absolute best versions can be found on their German tour of 1973.
@@jims.6393 this song was released in 1976
@@dhruvmalhotra9316 - wrong thread
They played it on their 1977 US tour, both Knebworth shows and on their final tour in 1980. High energy all the way !
“ It is not hard to see why drummer John Bonham was irreplaceable when he died one year later.”
This is crazy live , the pace is even more ferocious than the studio version.. These guys are just masters...
GREATEST ROCK GROUP EVER
masters of the universe...pure fire
Bonzo live just kills it he sounds like a M16 through the whole song the whole band is just phenomenal number one band of all time
The lyrics were inspired by a trip Jimmy and Robert took to India and the title was inspired by Robert's car accident. He broke his ankle and elbow and was in a wheelchair for a while and uncertain if he'd be able to walk unassisted again. The connection is to mythological Achilles because Achilles had only one weakness; the heel of his foot and an injury there could kill him. The bass line on this song inspired Heart's song Barracuda and I think the machine gun-like sound of the drums inspired Metallica's song One. Out of what I consider Zep's 3 "epic" songs (Stairway and Kashmir are the other 2), this is my favorite.
Yes! Kashmir is one of their best.
It's been said that the two biggest songs off of "Presence" are "Barracuda" (Heart) and "Lonely Is The Night" (Billy Squier).
John was such a shredder on the drums
Jimmy Page is one of the best guitarist of all time.
Really?? Hahahahahaha
@@draganmladenovic4879 yes he is better known as the 'RIFF MASTER' classic case in point song entitled 'bring it on home' by Led Zeppelin. It's starts off by Robert Plant on the harmonica singing bluesy and then the guitar comes in and it just explodes into a nasty mesmerising guitar riff the greatest in rock and roll history and Jimmy Page at his best 👌
Unstoppable tsunami, runaway locamotive, F-5 tornado, massive avalanche of music from the very best to do it...they pulverize the audience into submission with their prodigious talent .
That's it... Simply 👌👌👌👌😎❤️
The man on the bass is the one everyone overlooks. He can play any instrument and arranged all their music.
Bonham is fucking that drum kit up... you can kind of see in his face though, that he is less than a year away from drinking a half gallon of vodka and leaving us
Unreal to see and hear this again. ❤
Bonzo in beast mode, Plant is nailing it, Page acting like the guitar God he is and ever present smooth and cool JPJ.👍🏽
G.O.A.T. 👏🏽
Love this!! ❤😁❤😁❤😁❤😁
Your energy is 🔥!
Do yourself a favor and listen to the isolated drum track for this song. His footwork is amazing.
Best BAND..EVER!!!
Super Drummer saves the world !!
You hav'nt any time to breathe during 8 mn !!
Unbelievable
I was at this show in August 1979 among 250 00 people coming from all Europe. Great. All french tickets sold in a few hours this year...
40 years later it's still burning me.
RIP John-bonzo you are on a other planet
I went. to this concert, shows how old I am!! It was incredible.
"Those drums sound like a machine gun!!" Great description, my man. Great description!!
When I hear this I feel like Led Zeppelin is taking me on a ride by horse back.
Too me. I always felt Mystical like People with Wings and Bird heads. Dimensions and realms. Dreams.
Mate love your reaction they are the best band ever, so complex and varied in their style and groove love it!!
Imo the best Led Zeppelin song there is.
I want to suggest to you Focus - Hocus Pocus. and specifically the live tv performance. They were told they only had 4,5 minutes to play, instead of the full 6 minutes so they played it a way faster. It features crazy drumriffs, whistling, yodeling, jazz scatting, ...
I was there in '79, incredible experience I cherish to this day.
You feel what we felt back in the day.
Ladies and gentlemen, this what a TRUE FAN looks like!! Just got here brother and I'm enjoying the shit out of watching you. YOU ROCK! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thanks for tuning in⭐️
@@POPE. I'm checking out ur SRV stuff now! You're going for the super heavy hitters, boss!! Wow! 🔥🔥🔥
John Bonham, baby ✊
POPE for President 2024.
I was there 4th August 1979 Knebworth Uk 🇬🇧 just a brilliant gig 👍🏴
Hes my Rock God
Thank you
Led Zeppelin, the truly greatest hard rock, blues rock, folk rock, heavy metal band of all time! It awesome to see you react the way I did when I first heard them in the 70s. Can you imagine getting bombarded with them, Yes, Pink Floyd and all the rest at the same time?
Masterpiece ♥️🔥♥️🔥♥️ This is the song I have anyone that doesn’t know their music listen to first followed by “Since I’ve been loving you” 🔥🔥 That is Mr. John Henry “Bonzo” Bonham on drums ♥️🔥♥️ The best there ever was RIP 💔
Have you ever seen another band with such chemistry on stage? Nope!!
Popeyco absolutely blown away by this song and yet many say they were well past their peak at this stage.
Would love to see him react to "Trampled under foot" or "In my time of dying" from the '75 Earl's Court concerts!
Even Rush couldnt achieve that
@@danfer.personal Yes Rush achieved that every time they went on stage. Nobody were better friends or had closer chemistry than Rush.
@@scottzappa9314 rush shouldn’t be mentioned in the same breath as zeppelin
@@eye5856 Everybody's entitled to their opinion, even if it's a bad one, LOL. You know nothing.
I just say BOW DOWN to the great LZ! One of my absolute faves. Everybody outstanding but Jimmy Page on guitar and John Bonham on drums, oh lord my ears have been blessed
He said (In celebration for a king)
Sound and swag like a boss? Nah - like THE BOSS! STILL Over 50 years later! It aint ever getting any better than this iconic immortal band. I was just looking at my top 25 list and really Zep owns 10 of them and yes this is one of those 10.
Relentless musicianship.
I’m exhausted just watching this ! …No band compares.
It's true - even a 'bad' Zeppelin song is 1000 times better than some bands' best work.
One of my all time favourite tracks from one of my favourite bands. I tried to copy Bonzo back in the day bloody impossible 😂 one of the best ever
When music was really music.
You've only just begun.
I was so glad I got to see this in my late teens, and so very sad it was one of the last performances before we lost Bonzo
You got to remember the studio version has 3 and sometimes 4 ovetlapping guitar parts.they said jimmy would never play it live
I was at 1 of the 6 sold out shows at Madison Square Garden during their legendary 1977 tour. No, it wasn't the night they recorded their "live" material.
"Achilles Last Stand" was the highlight for me during their entire set.
Zeppelin that evening were powerful, majestic, awe inspiring and at the top of their game. Unforgettable.
However, 21 nights later, I saw a band in concert that were even better "live" than the mighty Led Zeppelin.
South Phillys Spectrum, June 28th, Pink Floyd during their "In the Flesh" tour promoting the "Animals" album.
Perfection rarely seen or heard, then or now.
You were still having residual effects from Zep, when you went and saw PF, which amplified their affect. PF is still the 3rd greatest rock band, tnough. ;)
Yes, Nebworth. The K is silent.
Yeah! You want a good workout, try playing that on drums!! And, this is faster than what they did on the studio version!
Do Led Zeppelin - Kashmir Knebworth '79
I didn't get get a notification for this one. So glad I came across it. This is an unbelievable performance!!
Watching this makes me feel 30 years younger (27)!!!! Don’t do the math!!
🔥This drummer! John Bonham. The greatest rock-drummer ever! 🔥
You can barely see him but in the background somewhere there's a man in a white suit with a guitar that's their bassist Jon Paul Jones 🙂
Rock Gods!
The way Jimmy Page makes that Guitar 🎸 scream is magic!
I WAS AT THAT CONCERT !! think what state I was in !!🤪🤪🤪
Man, they are hitting on all cylinders here. Hi-octane jet fuel. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Mesmerising performance only 3 instruments ? Wow Bonham drumming unquestionably the greatest ever 🏴💖
They all went back and had tea with mums after this haha
God how did I miss this reaction!!
John Bohnam
GREATEST DRUMMER EVER
That proves why John Bonham dominated the drummer polls back in the 70's. The only one that gave him any competition was none other than Keith Moon of The Who.
They were immense
And another fan is born...
The kings of rock
Best band ever and such a diverse catalogue to get into. Great reaction to an awesome performance! Unforgettable. I was one of the fortunate ones there to see it.
I love the outro riff it's so dirty and how it comes in abruptly 🔥
I love that you're a headbanger!
200K people at each of two shows.
The Goats of all goats!
Ha ha ha ha, freaking incredible!
Wow, just wow!
The Mighty Zeppelin, another badass song is No Quarter it's a whole other trip.
I love this guys reactions! Gets me fired up too!!!!
The hammer of the Gods.
The real star was the drummer. Incredible endurance.
YOU CRAZY MAN - but I like it.
Page at this point had one hell of a heroin addiction. Look at his shirt and hair, he's Sweetin like crazy, more than even Bonham on the drums. I have this Dvd and Page changes his shirt 3 times during show . Towards end of this song just look at how wet his shirt is on the shoulders and the front. Thank god he got clean.
I've read & heard over the years, that before Bonham's death was confirmed, people assumed that it was Jimmy that had passed. He was in that bad of shape. It's kinda amazing that he pulled through all that and has all his faculties today
This would have to be one of their top 3 songs. Its goes Stairway, Kashmir, and Achilles in that order. Also, this song was basically the beginning of Progressive Metal as a genre.
There isn’t another drummer that could power through this song like John Bonham does. Magic!
Pope, you are one cool dude my brother. I love how you appreciate the song and the band.
I love it that you love Led Zeppelin!
You right for the top of the rock for that I thankyou
interesting and amazing choice of song
