Tea for One, and I'd say this whole album, gets overlooked by many of the casual fans. Zeppelin has quite the catalog, what a band. Everything they touched was intensely good.
I can confirm. Album didn't get much airplay back in the day. Just too out of genre for even the best AOR stations of the time. I've grown to appreciate it way more than I did when I bought the album.
This one and to a lesser degree Since I've Been Loving You are criminally underrated. With >8 minute run times they weren't going to get much radio play, but to me they represent some of the best Zeppelin. How come 24 hours seem to slip into days?
Heard interview w Jimmy years ago and he said this was his favorite solo. Thanks, Silas edit: please do The Song Remains the Same. I'm on ma' knees, baby...
This song just oozes such a bluesy intimacy. The way that it fools you at the beginning with that faster tempo that quickly slows down on a dime and flows into a slow burning blues number is something else. If you want to be transported to another dimension, just put this song on in a dark room, late at night, perhaps with your intoxicant of choice, and enjoy the ride...
Robert was feeling this one personally. A time of physical and deep emotional pain for him. In a wheelchair… missing his family desperately. You can hear it in his voice. Jimmy does incredibly sensitive and emotional playing. Bonzo too does a perfect, less is more, job of drumming…playing for the song. One of my favorites. Knowing the backstory helps.
As Gump would say......Led Zeppelin is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. Go ahead.....you can say it! The 'other Fab Four' are the GOAT for sure!
Epic reaction man!! I just knew you were going to like this song..every time I hear it reminds me of the first time I heard it on the radio, it was late at night on a heavy rainy night and the DJ played it from start to finish with no interruption...LZ is just the best..the best
I agree that, yes, you like the blues. But think you like Jimmy's particular cry and wail. Of course tasty Bonham. Yet, his sound is unmistakable. The Master. Thank you sir!
I've watched you react to almost all of Led Zeppelin you seem to like the Blues side of zep. You should check out Joe Bonamassa . He's an amazing blues guitarist
So beautiful & bluesy, when it first starts, you really don’t expect this. These guys are the best at bluesy music, besides the soulful instruments, Plant just has the vocals blues & really anything.
I'm with you, Silas. This song doesn't get much love compared to some of their other stuff (probably because it's not as well known), but for me this is a notch above Since I've Been Loving You. It's another slow blues in the same vein, with the beautiful hypnotic rhythm section, Page's unreal blues leads and Plant's vocals dripping with passion, but what pushes it over the edge for me is that killer riff. Such a dramatic progression that just hits me in the gut. 🔥🔥🔥
I think you ranked them perfectly my brother. More please. Until next time stay well. And don't forget Lara Fabian and David Phelps most popular view videos you won't go wrong or be disappointed if you like vocals Supreme
Next Who album? Quadrophenia seems a logical choice, but I would suggest doing the 'Live at Leeds' album first to get the 'live' feel of the band. Starting with the original live album, and possibly following them up with songs from the extended version.
I've been listening to Zeppelin for over 30 years and i've given up on ranking their songs and albums. Its just too hard but this is an excellent album and it was the first Zeppelin album that i owned and believe it or not, back in the 80s and 90s, it used to be mixed with the albums that were on special all the time at local record stores. I think i paid $6 for it on cassette many, many, many years ago.
As good as Since I’ve Been Loving You. Perhaps even more emotional, quite stark and painful. Reminiscent of the (original) Fleetwood Mac song ‘Love That Burns’, when they were one of the best English blues bands in the late sixties/early seventies.
Led Zeppelin will still be relevant centuries from now. But there are modern artists in the same category. And it's amazing how many people still haven't even heard of them. Here are three: 1) Dimash Kudaibergen: Widely considered by vocal coaches to be the best vocalist in the world, a once-in-a-century talent. Start with his performance of "SOS d'un terrien en detresse." Pronunciation of name (stress goes on the syllables in ALL CAPS): Dee MOSH Koo die bear GHENN 2) Diana Ankudinova: Her native vocal register is contralto, which is extremely rare. Another once-in-a-century talent. Start with either her cover of "Wicked Game" or her cover of "I Can't Help Falling In Love With You." Pronunciation of name (stress goes on the syllables in ALL CAPS): Dee ON ah On koo DEEN ah vuh 3) Angelina Jordan: Born in January 2006, so she's not even 17 yet. She recorded her first song in a professional recording studio at age 6, a cover of Ben E. King's "I Who Have Nothing." She won Norway's Got Talent at age 8. She got a recording contract with Republic Records just over a year ago, now. Her preferred genre is Jazz, but she does not limit herself to that. She's known for making covers of songs that many deem better than the originals (not every time, but more often than not.) She's also known for shocking people with her talent and ability, even when you don't realize the person singing is only 10 years old. Yet another once-in-a-century talent. Most reactors start with Angelina's cover of "I Put A Spell On You," which is tribute to the original version of that song by "Screamin' Jay" Hawkins. She was 10 for that performance. Prepare to be shocked.
All three are shockingly good. And I’ve listened to them all. Angelina is the one I gravitate to more. The two others, once the shock wears off….don’t hold me as much. Just a matter of taste.
No one cares about amazing vocals if it doesn't have amazing instruments and song writing to back it up. I don't understand how these artists are relevant here in this Led Zeppelin song discussion. I gave them a try and they are painfully and excruciatingly tedious to listen to. No, I listen to variety of genres, but these artists give impression of ma vocal presentation than anything else.
@@fugitive6549 Oh, I don't know...Maybe my comment is justified by the fact that the posted video is from a music reaction channel? Or by the fact that Silas is asking for recommendations to new artists? Or by the fact that a huge majority of people strongly disagree with your assessment of the three artists I highlighted?
@@Grumpy_Rabbit I did agree with Fugitive in the case of Diana. Once the shock value wore off with her voice,I stopped listening to her. I would NEVER consider an album by her. But again, a matter of taste. I am glad that, because of the internet, artists from every part of the globe can now get international exposure…
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 We're all entitled to our opinions and preferences. What's not OK is making statements that imply otherwise. And you didn't make that mistake. I appreciate that.
Hey Silas, my recommendations for your next 5 albums to cover are: The Who - 'Live at Leeds'. Deep Purple - 'Machine Head'. Jethro Tull - 'Aqualung'. Led Zeppelin - 'In Through the Out Door'. 'Rolling Stones' - 'Let It Bleed'
Love that face you make after @3:25. I know you're feeling it, big time, just like I do. How can anyone NOT feel that? Such an awesome band. Such an awesome tune. Led Zep probably turned me on to the Blues greats like Muddy, Buddy Guy, Robert Johnson and so SO many more.
There’s more feeling in this one. SIBLY was blues sung by a young man without care. This one is sung by a bit older man who’s living the blues himself …suffering pain and loneliness. And it shows.
@@scottzappa9314 you’re exactly right. It is my opinion only. And I don’t mind being in the minority. 😁 I love both songs. Perhaps I have a softer spot for this one because I know the backstory and that gives me more of an emotional connection to it. In SIBLY you know Plant is singing a great blues but it’s not about himself. Tea for One is deeply personal.
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 OK fair enough, you're right and I'm right. There is no right or wrong, like any other art form. It's much too subjective a thing for definitive answers. And of course, to each his/her own.
One of their best most underrated songs .
There's a lot of emotion in the solo. One of Jimmy's finest.

edit: please do The Song Remains the Same. I'm on ma' knees, baby...
My favorite track off this great album. Presence really showcases Bonham's drumming
Now you know why I kept prodding you to get to this album.
This is a slower jazzier vibe of ''Since I've Been Lovin' You
It’s the blues, just like since I’ve been loving you. Me thinks you dig the blues👍😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😎😎😎😎😎
This song just oozes such a bluesy intimacy.

Pure art.

This is probably my favorite Zeppelin song. It's always taken me to a different place.
As Gump would say......Led Zeppelin is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. Go ahead.....you can say it! The 'other Fab Four' are the GOAT for sure!
Spot on the reference to "Since ive been loving you", this is a non official B side of the song.
Robert Plant has quite a solo career and released second collaboration with Alison Kraus. Try 29 Palms or Long Cool One.
Epic reaction man!! I just knew you were going to like this song..every time I hear it reminds me of the first time I heard it on the radio, it was late at night on a heavy rainy night and the DJ played it from start to finish with no interruption...LZ is just the best..the best

Great song! Please go on to In Through The Out Door! Fantastic album too!
One of my favorite tunes,so bluesy
This was a great reaction... you were alone and just totally getting into it. Very cool. Yeah, no BAD Led Zeplin albums! 👍
Zeps golden little nugget
Might as well finish them off and do CODA next. Thanks!
It doesn't get any better than that
Congrats on the 7k.
EPIC Priceless REACTION. Been on my headphones since 1978.....
I've watched you react to almost all of Led Zeppelin you seem to like the Blues side of zep. You should check out Joe Bonamassa . He's an amazing blues guitarist
this and im ganna crawl are great Zep songs that dont get the attention they deserve
You're are gonna love this song. I love it 😀

I suggest Quadrophenia and Who Are You for the next Who albums.
This is a really outstanding song.
Time for some material from the Madison Square Garden concert. Try Whole Lotta Love and Stairway to Heaven from the Madison Square Garden concert.

So much blues. Love it and Jimmy come on. So a great band. Can't go wrong. Hi silas
Hey How are you doing? This is one of my favorite songs from the GOAT! 64 Yo guy here
Amazing blues 💙🍵 4 ☝
Bring it 🤠
this is basically a later grungier version of since iv been lovin you
I guess they came up with the title "Tea for One" from the Jazz tune "Tea for Two".

Hey Silas have you reacted to Hey Hey What Can I Do and Traveling Riverside Blues yet? If ya haven’t I highly recommended it!
If you like that, you will like "Mistreated" by Deep Purple even better. ;)
Your girl needs to listen to this!!!
Good top three
This is the younger sister to Since I’ve been Loving you
This is totally the spiritual successor to the previous song. Both so so good.
Quadrophenia….., by The Who
I like this better than Since I Been loving you
silas, you must listen to (joe Bonamossa) version of (Tea for one) Great guitaring
Great job
Do you think Silas will like "Freebird" It has a great guitar riff
❤ ❤ ❤... ❤
i was hoping your lady would be with you
React to Black Sabbath album by album
Don't rank them just enjoy them, it's yummy ear candy food for the soul
sorry but its not loud enough
led zeppelin is NEVER loud enough
@@Scoobydcs Super response!! 💥
IMO this is good but it doesn't quite have the magic of "Since I've Been Loving You." Which is pretty much better in every way, IMO.
There’s more feeling in this one. SIBLY was blues sung by a young man without care. This one is sung by a bit older man who’s living the blues himself …suffering pain and loneliness. And it shows.

Why dont you cut out this awfull acting. Zep fans would rather truth..... its quite embarrassing
Another fake😊
Nah mate, no thanks to this.
Presence was and is a classic. Plant said it best "Presence was very druggy and pained". Yup
