Zeppelin were masters of mixing the melodies so it was faster or slower than the actual speed it was supposed to be. It made their music unique and one of a kind.
Its really to bad I can't take you back in time to the 176 Led Zeppelin concerts I attended from '70 to '77. The greatest rock band. Black Dog actually has 3 different time signatures. Cool, huh? And James always played us a different guitar solo each time. As he did with most of their songs, all worked out as it played on the fly. Loved seeing the look on your face as the song ended.

Wow, you got that right!. I was just saying to my hubby that we were blessed to grow up during the era when rock absolutely exploded with all the genres.
Brilliant Diane! Yes John Bonham always sounded like he was playing "late". It clearly was calculated, he meant to do that, and it gives an interesting dynamic to Led Zeppelin's music and why he is on most surveys the number one or number two drummer in the world (between him and Neil Peart of Rush)
Diane, I said it before and I'll say it again, the next Zeppelin song you need to listen to is "When the Levee Breaks". It will blow your mind! GREATEST DRUM BEAT IN HISTORY!
The story about that drum beat and how they got is legendary. The recording process made this come together in the most unlikely but almost mythical way.
Led Zeppelin was extremely powerful. Black Dog and Rock and Roll are perfect examples of that power. Physically as well as visually and audibly. Incredible energy as well as sound. When I first watched this concert nearly fifty years ago, I was struck by the band's physicality. They reminded me of great athletes. They had to be absolutely exhausted by the end of each concert, Page and Bonham especially. To use a football reference, Plant was like a star quarterback, Bonham a rush defensive end or middle linebacker (Dick Butkis!), Page like a Primadona wide receiver, and Jones the always dependable never miss clutch field goal kicker.
LZ is one of the top three rock bands of all time. If you want to say they're the best, I won't argue. I love 'em and have since track one,side one of album one. Stairway to Heaven is their magnus opus and is a beautiful song but I love watching Heart's tribute cover live at The Kennedy Center Honors. it's a magnificent performance and does justice to the song.
this is the song that started my love of all things zep.. learned to play it simultaneous with stairway.. it is difficult to play.. but always fun.. i've been covering it for 40+ years..
Best rock group of all time in my opinion. You have a good ear! I always struggled playing this song on my guitar when I was young. The guitar does sound off but somehow resolves itself later as it goes along.
Diane learning about Led Zeppelin reminds me of School of Rock "you don't know the Man? He's everywhere. In the white house... down the hall... Ms. Mullins, she's the man"
I saw Led Zeppelin🔥 in 1970, my senior year in high school!🤗 It was my first concert and first acid trip!💯🤯 It was a fantastic time to be young, wild, and a little crazy!😂❤️✌️
Years ago Led Zeppelin performed in Oklahoma City. The opening act canceled at the last moment, so the promoter reached out to a local band called Mountain Smoke. They were country/blue grass band. One of the members was Vince Gill. Needless to say the fans were less than pleased. They started to through beer bottles and chased them off stage.
Happy Wednesday Diane! I can appreciate it when you give us your insights on a lot of these bands whether you have heard of them or not. Led Zeppelin is definitely one band that I have definitely heard of. One particular song of theirs that I have heard of is called "Kasmir" which I have heard first in a movie. Great reaction video as always Diane! Always look forward to seeing them, meaning your videos. Say hi to Chewie for me. Enjoy the rest of your week Diane, and be well always! 😎👍🎊🎉
The song Since I've Been Loving You from the same venue in '73 is straight up heavy blues rock. I think you would really like it. You know as always l am hitchin a ride on this journey to see where we're gonna end up.
@@DianeJennings After Since I've Been Loving You, check out When the Levee Breaks. It's a cover of a late 1920's Delta blues song that Zeppelin makes their own. Amazing.
Can't argue that! I used to not appreciate zep when was younger... but only because didn't hear the best and kept hearing the song that was on thor movie.
Now a Led Zeppelin fan, Diane is back for more Today she listens to Black Dog, this is song four She likes their jeans, their hair and the drummer’s vibe If the band was a RUclips channel, she would hit subscribe
In which Ann Wilson (vocals) and Nancy Wilson of Heart lead the band’s biggest hit “Stairway to Heaven” along with Jason Bonham in drums (who looks so much like his dad) and a gigantic chorus and orchestra. It’s an epic moment in rock history that feels like a passing of the torch to the next generation and which the emotional reaction of the living members of the group is amazing to see. Speaking of Heart, their massive hit “Barracuda” is amazing and I’m sure you’ll LOVE IT!
I enjoyed learning with You what Led Zeppelin's Black Dog song is about. I guessed part of the song right being about a Black Dog. I did learn alot of new things about the song with You. I find it interesting how alot of bands songs have many meanings to each song.
At 9:34 The Time Signatures is Wild on the song Black Dog for sure. Till You pointed that out I did not notice He was tapping his drumsticks to keep the Time Signature on time.
Sir Winston Churchill often referred to his "black dog" when he was depressed. Usually when he got bad news on how the war was going for England.( both WW1 & WW2)
Thank U, Diane, for having done so well with this song's reactioneering. (I recently enjoyed your "Guesting" with Lawrence of "Lost in tha Pond") I'd agree, "Since [We've] Been Loving [Us]" from this same performance . . . is another LedZep GEM. (I like to hear it "wearied" -- not a "worried" -- "mind", . . . but maybe listen to it as it is before trying to hear it differently) By any way, . . . Enjoy. ...and thank U.
I have heard Led Zeppelin Black Dog on the radio and have the CD. This is Also My First Time watching and listening to Led Zeppelin Black Dog live at Madison Square Garden. Enjoying Sharing the music journey with You. Thanks for making the Day Happy and Joyful with good vibes in the universe.
Churchill described his bouts of deep depression as having the Black Dog. His Cabinet Ministers and staff knew to not annoy him when suffering to avoid having their heads chewed off.
@@LindaC616 It was one of his black dog episodes that prevented his attendance at the Treaty of Rome signing and Britain becoming a founder member of the EEC, this turned his then friend De Gaulle against Britain. The Treaty was flown to London for signing, due to adverse weather it didn't make it back before the deadline, planes had to fly through the Alps then not over, it might have made it by road or via Gibraltar. France continued to oppose the UK's entry until the 70's.
Great Reaction Diane - having heard this a million times on American Rock Radio since the 70's, it's so refreshing to see it through your fresh eyes. Love the edits, insertions of comical bits, and you researching time signatures and purient in real time - all good! Keep 'em coming, as Planty might say!
I remember going to see the J.Giles Band back in the early 1980's. Their opening act was an unknown Irish group that called themselves U2. The Irish lead singer was great, but he had a strange stage name as well. I think it was something like "Bono" ?
I love the look on her face ..that’s the same look I had back in 1972 when I was 5 yrs old and heard Zeppelin for the first time! I’ve been addicted ever since .Zeppelin catalog of music is more then just Stairway to Heaven and Rock n Roll ..they have so many other hidden jams that lye between the popular songs .A true Zeppelin fan will get what I’m saying! I listen from side A flip the Lp and listen to side B ,,that is the Led Zeppelin experience any true fan enjoys! I’m glad to see younger generations opening up and enjoying real music that has inspired a lot of musicians today!
Guessing many women have liked Robert's "jeans" in this show. Perhaps its the skin tight over stuffed look that draws the attention??....lol. One thing for sure Robert wasn't shy about showing his stuff
Look at some of the other muiscians today. Wearing skimpy clothing and being skanky, someone's name ryming (sp.) with Riley comes to mind. And so many others. But like the saying "If you got, flaunt it" or something like that.
One of Led Zeppelin's influences was the Delta Blues singer and guitarist Robert Johnson. Their cover of his song, "Travelling Riverside Blues," is nothing short of incredible. Johnson never achieved success during his short life. He is a member of the Twenty-Seven Club. But the handful of recordings he left behind earned him the title, King of the Delta Blues. Legend says Johnson went to a crossroad at midnight to meet with the devil. A deal was struck giving Johnson mastery of the guitar in exchange for his immortal soul, or so the story goes.
Zeppelin could be a very, very deep rabbit hole for you to fall down🤘. The Wanton Song is another I think you would like a lot. A funky groove with John Bonham laying down some tasty drum licks. LZ was definitely one of my favorites as a kid, and sometimes I think I'm still a kid at heart. Another band I would recommend is Grand Funk Railroad, specifically the songs Paranoid from Grand Funk Live, or Inside Lookin' Out, live 1969. I first got into both LZ, and GFR in '69 or'70 because of my big brother.
I had un-paused the video after stopping to Google the definition of "prurient" and typing it out into my notepad, only to see you basically doing the same (which gave me a wee laugh). Great video. I really like seeing people react to bands, acts or songs that I love, after hearing it for the first time. And it was a really good analysis. Sláinte
I wonder if Irish bands that are popular in the US are also popular in Ireland? Bands such as U2 or even individuals such as Sinead O'connor. This if from memory but I think the song is "Sail Away" on the album "Orinoco Flow" by Enya. Oh wait, what was I going to do? Oh well, maybe next time. Good day to ya'll, and to all a good night.
At 10:07 You are my favorite Elsa performing singer. Christmas mansion production and birthday parties sounds fun. Very true sometimes forgetting the lyrics while trying to keep up with the song while singing.
Noone is like Zeppelin, no one!!! Keep in mind Diane that there are several small minded people in this old world. Many!!! You like the drummer, Mr. John Bonham aka Bonzo. Many consider him the best rock drummer EVER!!!! John died young. I wonder how much that had to with his rise to fame. Don't misunderstand me the man is good drummer. Really GOOD!!!!
Gorgeous, I saw that tour in Albuquerque NM, Houses of the Holy. 50 years later it is STILL etched in my memory! They were at their BEST at time. Bonzo John Bohman had a double drum set in Albuquerque. Damn it was great!
Great song and video to react to. I’ve never seen this video before. I think you said it best that Robert Plant liked to lead with certain aspects of himself. Lol.
You're right ! Led Zeppelin is famous for shifts in rhythms. The regretted John Bonham was also regularly changing tempo during songs, following the lead instrument or the base, depending on... God knows why... This is what makes it so special and unique.
For reference, when someone says "I can't believe you've never heard this!" it's more of a figure of speech, as opposed to accusing you of lying. It's an expression meaning "I'm astounded that you haven't heard this song, which has permeated pop culture for decades." Though admittedly it's a very America-centric version of pop culture.
Sadly, the drummer, John Bonham has passed away, but his son has been filling in for him. In honor of international Women’s Month you might want to play and comment on the Led Zepplin Kennedy Center Honors
Yeah, Jason Bonham has played with the band several times. It was after John Bonham died that the band suddenly and unexpectedly broke up. They just felt they could not go on without him and that Led Zeppelin would not be Led Zeppelin without "Bonzo" They of course have reunited many times since and used various drummers including Phil Collins who played the drums for them during Live Aid.
@@nataliestclair6176 in interviews they each have said, if any member quit or unfortunately passed like Bonham, they knew the band was over. They each had a quarter say etc. in the band, they were all equal. For Live Aid, Phil Collins & another guy played drums, two to make up for Bonzo. The other guy didn’t know the songs, & screwed things up, Phil Collins picked the other drummer. Jason Bonham is the only one, who even comes close to playing like his dad. For Celebration Day, he learned all his dad’s parts in all the songs, he didn’t know what songs would be picked to play.
Several of their songs are done in different counts, that’s one of the things that made them the greatest ever. No two of their lives were ever played the same, but they were all in sync, with the changes. Page so often would add more to his guitar solos, & Plant often added lyrics from other song to the lives. I’m not sure what all you’ve reacted to, but any song you’d pick, will be amazing & often different. Since they do play so many different genres, & thank you for your reaction.
@@sicotshit7068 yeah Jason was as close to being as great as his father as one could get. My opinion is that John Bonham is the GOAT of drums. His Moby Dick solo is just awesome
"Shredding" nice use of vocabulary Ms Jennings; full points. To truly get a feel of the drummer's energy "Moby Dick" is a must. Led Zeppelin has so many great songs. I hope you react to more of them. You have to love the randomness of how they got the title to this one. Thanks Diane
Yay, Diane once again gets the “Led” out!!😃. Jimmy Page was my hero as a 15-17 year old. I love watching Diane’s face when she reacts to this “Acid Rock Blues”. I don’t know many ladies who revere their music at all. ❤to Diane!!
@@komcaloon5609 No worries the band does sound good live. My Dad was born in the late 50s, He got to see Led Zeppelin live in concert back in the day and lots of bands. My mom went to some concerts in late 70s and 80s.
@@rickeycarey4556 Wow, that had to be cool to see them in person! I didn’t get into them until the 80s and by that time they weren’t a band anymore because the drummer had died. I do remember seeing a movie called “the song remains the same” which was a compilation of their concert footage. My parents were born in the 40s and they always said “..that stuff is too heavy!”
There is so much music out there, it's not even funny! I bet I've listened to stuff that 95%+ of the people commenting haven't heard. Not saying this is one of them, but I didn't know I'd like Mongolian Throat Singing Metal until I heard it. That's a group called The Hu. Might be interesting to check out here.
Black dog is also a term over the road truckers use, usually if you see one it's almost always imminent death. It's an old term for when truckers traveled so long to meet a deadline they'd often fall asleep at the wheel, this was before computers monitored log books or governed mileage and time.
The band felt this was the hardest song to play live. Also...the audience participation is taken directly from the studio album wher Robert sings that part. Love your reactions and other content. Its fun to see "my" music (what I grew up with)through anothers eyes. ❤
"hard time getting the rhythm of that song", well touring has a way of varying performances. Take a little time to look for agreed best performances. Still good stuff.
I think each generation gets caught up in what’s new or ‘fresh’. And so, many younger people don’t know the music I grew up with. I love exposing them to classic rock. Their reactions are usually WOW, how have I not heard this band?
3:47 😆Diane looks mesmerised, almost hypnotised🤔 you’re feeling sleepy Diane😵💫 you will give Chewie more treats & walkies

So sad and yet so true.

@@jerrybuirski2344 Oh, what a time to be between 18-22 years of age.
Brilliant Diane! Yes John Bonham always sounded like he was playing "late". It clearly was calculated, he meant to do that, and it gives an interesting dynamic to Led Zeppelin's music and why he is on most surveys the number one or number two drummer in the world (between him and Neil Peart of Rush)
Diane, I said it before and I'll say it again, the next Zeppelin song you need to listen to is "When the Levee Breaks". It will blow your mind! GREATEST DRUM BEAT IN HISTORY!
The story about that drum beat and how they got is legendary. The recording process made this come together in the most unlikely but almost mythical way.
Next to Achillie's last stand on the album Presence, which is a 10 minute, mostly drums song. Bonus was going crazy on that one.
That's one of my favorite tunes. Gallow's Pole is another. Can't go wrong with Zep.
Killer song, great recommendation!
Trampled under foot! That’s one of my favs, and im gonna leave you. Since I’ve been loving you
Dear you are listening to the best drummer ever, best lead guitarist ever and best vocalist ever....and best Bass ever !
I.Y.O. only, of course. (Neil Peart? Stevie Ray Vaughan? Floor Jansen?)
Only had a chance of that when Mr page wasn't high as a kite
You said it ''oh my god'' Yes the best band in the world, The mighty Led Zeppelin.

I thought that it was awesome that my 10 the grade English clash analized the lyrics when were studying poetry. The whole thing is a big duealty.
LZ is THE top rock band of all time - sorry for my little correction.
That feeling you get from the rhythm is referred to as "playing behind the beat" it gives the groove just a little more "sauce".
this is the song that started my love of all things zep.. learned to play it simultaneous with stairway.. it is difficult to play.. but always fun.. i've been covering it for 40+ years..
First song I learned on guitar
Not having heard other people's music gives you near infinite material for content👍

Another band I would recommend is Grand Funk Railroad, specifically the songs Paranoid from Grand Funk Live, or Inside Lookin' Out, live 1969. I first got into both LZ, and GFR in '69 or'70 because of my big brother.
I'll check it out! Thank you Bill
I had un-paused the video after stopping to Google the definition of "prurient" and typing it out into my notepad, only to see you basically doing the same (which gave me a wee laugh).
Great video. I really like seeing people react to bands, acts or songs that I love, after hearing it for the first time. And it was a really good analysis.
Sláinte
I wonder if Irish bands that are popular in the US are also popular in Ireland? Bands such as U2 or even individuals such as Sinead O'connor.
This if from memory but I think the song is "Sail Away" on the album "Orinoco Flow" by Enya. Oh wait, what was I going to do? Oh well, maybe next time.
Good day to ya'll, and to all a good night.
The same question. I have a feeling Cranberries had their day, and people worshiped MacGowan's irreverence, but I've also wondered
At 10:07 You are my favorite Elsa performing singer. Christmas mansion production and birthday parties sounds fun. Very true sometimes forgetting the lyrics while trying to keep up with the song while singing.
Noone is like Zeppelin, no one!!! Keep in mind Diane that there are several small minded people in this old world. Many!!! You like the drummer, Mr. John Bonham aka Bonzo. Many consider him the best rock drummer EVER!!!! John died young. I wonder how much that had to with his rise to fame. Don't misunderstand me the man is good drummer. Really GOOD!!!!
Gorgeous, I saw that tour in Albuquerque NM, Houses of the Holy. 50 years later it is STILL etched in my memory! They were at their BEST at time. Bonzo John Bohman had a double drum set in Albuquerque. Damn it was great!
Great song and video to react to. I’ve never seen this video before. I think you said it best that Robert Plant liked to lead with certain aspects of himself. Lol.
Well said! I agree-glad you enjoyed it Heather!
You're right ! Led Zeppelin is famous for shifts in rhythms. The regretted John Bonham was also regularly changing tempo during songs, following the lead instrument or the base, depending on... God knows why... This is what makes it so special and unique.
Diane! Is My Jam! 👧 🖤 ✔
One of the great opening lines in Rock music. Also, Elga Fox has a song called "Black Dog" and it **is** about depression.
I remember that song! Her rendition of it is really beautiful
For reference, when someone says "I can't believe you've never heard this!" it's more of a figure of speech, as opposed to accusing you of lying. It's an expression meaning "I'm astounded that you haven't heard this song, which has permeated pop culture for decades." Though admittedly it's a very America-centric version of pop culture.
Kids today don't even listen to corporate sanitized playlists of classic rock.
I think some mean it literally, at least by the way they phrase it.
Now this has become a real Golden Oldie. But LZ never gets old. 🎸 🎸 Good reaction to this classic band and song. Keep on rocking! 😊🎉❤
Sadly, the drummer, John Bonham has passed away, but his son has been filling in for him. In honor of international Women’s Month you might want to play and comment on the Led Zepplin Kennedy Center Honors
I had the opportunity to see Heart and the John Bonham Band appearing together. The matchup was perfect.
Yeah, Jason Bonham has played with the band several times.
It was after John Bonham died that the band suddenly and unexpectedly broke up. They just felt they could not go on without him and that Led Zeppelin would not be Led Zeppelin without "Bonzo"
They of course have reunited many times since and used various drummers including Phil Collins who played the drums for them during Live Aid.
@@nataliestclair6176 in interviews they each have said, if any member quit or unfortunately passed like Bonham, they knew the band was over. They each had a quarter say etc. in the band, they were all equal. For Live Aid, Phil Collins & another guy played drums, two to make up for Bonzo. The other guy didn’t know the songs, & screwed things up, Phil Collins picked the other drummer. Jason Bonham is the only one, who even comes close to playing like his dad. For Celebration Day, he learned all his dad’s parts in all the songs, he didn’t know what songs would be picked to play.
Several of their songs are done in different counts, that’s one of the things that made them the greatest ever. No two of their lives were ever played the same, but they were all in sync, with the changes. Page so often would add more to his guitar solos, & Plant often added lyrics from other song to the lives. I’m not sure what all you’ve reacted to, but any song you’d pick, will be amazing & often different. Since they do play so many different genres, & thank you for your reaction.
@@sicotshit7068 yeah Jason was as close to being as great as his father as one could get. My opinion is that John Bonham is the GOAT of drums. His Moby Dick solo is just awesome
Love you Diane! Great song by the greatest band! Thanks for doing it. You should interview Robert sometime.
Feeding the algorithm, my brain isn’t up to having an intelligent comment at the moment.
Yum yum yum 🤤
It's cool. I took edibles too. ;)
"Shredding" nice use of vocabulary Ms Jennings; full points. To truly get a feel of the drummer's energy "Moby Dick" is a must. Led Zeppelin has so many great songs. I hope you react to more of them. You have to love the randomness of how they got the title to this one. Thanks Diane
Led Zeppelin is one of the bands that's music sounds really good Live.
Yay, Diane once again gets the “Led” out!!😃. Jimmy Page was my hero as a 15-17 year old. I love watching Diane’s face when she reacts to this “Acid Rock Blues”. I don’t know many ladies who revere their music at all. ❤to Diane!!
Sorry Rickey, I didn’t mean to hijack your comment. I do agree though that they were great live!😃
@@komcaloon5609 No worries the band does sound good live. My Dad was born in the late 50s, He got to see Led Zeppelin live in concert back in the day and lots of bands. My mom went to some concerts in late 70s and 80s.
@@rickeycarey4556 Wow, that had to be cool to see them in person! I didn’t get into them until the 80s and by that time they weren’t a band anymore because the drummer had died. I do remember seeing a movie called “the song remains the same” which was a compilation of their concert footage. My parents were born in the 40s and they always said “..that stuff is too heavy!”
Went to see Mr Plant on Friday, stunning and an amazing rendition of the Rain Song
There is so much music out there, it's not even funny! I bet I've listened to stuff that 95%+ of the people commenting haven't heard. Not saying this is one of them, but I didn't know I'd like Mongolian Throat Singing Metal until I heard it. That's a group called The Hu. Might be interesting to check out here.
The Hu are awesome!
I’ve heard of that… It doesn’t sound up my alley
@@DianeJennings I didn't think it was up mine either, but I like it. Even though I don't know Mongolian.
This was the time I was late teens for the first and only time. My love for classic rock has been instilled in my daughter.
I was one lucky lady to be at that concert!!👍👍👍🥰
Hi Diane!
Wow! What an amazing choice!
Black dog is also a term over the road truckers use, usually if you see one it's almost always imminent death. It's an old term for when truckers traveled so long to meet a deadline they'd often fall asleep at the wheel, this was before computers monitored log books or governed mileage and time.
You're the best, Diane! Better than your doubters! Almost as great as your editor!
R. I. P. John Bottoms 🙏🏼
Surely, you meant John Bonham?!!
I enjoyed seeing and hearing your reaction to Led Zeppelin Diane. This 60 year old hopes you'll listen to more classic rock.
Diane representing for us musically ignorant millennials. And we adore her for it! Or at least I do anyways 😜
Aww shucks Thankee!!
The band felt this was the hardest song to play live. Also...the audience participation is taken directly from the studio album wher Robert sings that part.
Love your reactions and other content. Its fun to see "my" music (what I grew up with)through anothers eyes. ❤
I just will never understand why reactors choose inferior live renditions of songs to listen to for the first time.
"hard time getting the rhythm of that song", well touring has a way of varying performances. Take a little time to look for agreed best performances. Still good stuff.
Horsshit. The live version is always better
This performance is honestly better than the recorded song. Extended solo from Page is just amazing
@@Nesgimp Because they're just more fun. : ))
Burned through a couple of 8 tracks of this album back in the day🤘🤘
I think each generation gets caught up in what’s new or ‘fresh’. And so, many younger people don’t know the music I grew up with. I love exposing them to classic rock. Their reactions are usually WOW, how have I not heard this band?
The fallowing is the only line that I listened to. All the rest was just colorful. "Got a flamin' heart, can't get my fill."
With a band name like Led Zeppelin, what else could it be?
I really miss the 70’s wish I could go back!!
At 0:30 Some songs are so good and fast paced it gets Chewie relaxed after He's had a few Good Snacks and a Belly Rub.
So true!
@@DianeJennings Chewie's a great little celebrate His birthday all week long 🧀🍖
