I bought this album new in 1979 and then had all my albums stolen in the early 90s. I recently found this at one of the local WalMarts and had to have it again for my new collection of vinyl. After 10 years of making music they show how they have evolved, and I love this album as much as my other Led Zeppelin albums.
I also recently started collecting vinyls once again after giving my collection away to a good friend 20 years ago, I never listened to them, I was so into digital music, how you could create your own cd's, even edit the music, but I miss the great sound from records, including the added pops and scratchiness of it, it adds another dimension to the sound. I repurchased every album other than Coda, I want it as well, but waiting to get my hands on the three record set with Traveling Riverside Blues and Hey Hey What Can I Do.
An absolute beast of a song, JPJ put together a masterpiece, I love it from start to finish. I noticed some comments complaining about the vocals being too much in the background, but after so many songs of Robert being in the forefront, I think it's a nice change, and I also seen a comment of the keys being too loud, but I think it showcases the brilliance of Jonesy, which is well deserved. I'm guessing Alivia (not sure of the spelling) will be with you on the next song, it makes sense, I'm sure it'll be a good reaction, and then comes my favorite, one of their best, and sadly the last studio recording by them, if only ...
Some of the lyrics are a hidden criticism of the band, their lifestyle and Jimmy Page in particular. I wonder if that's why the vocals were not so up front. Plant thought Page didn't realise but maybe he did.
Carouselambra and In The Evening are the best rockers from the album ..It took me a longtime to get use to this album with that heavy synth vibe but it gets better with age .. John Paul Jones had the most creative input on this production ,his playing is far more upfront and all over this album .
I'm not a huge fan of this album, but I love this song. What you're hearing as the repetitive part in the background is John Paul Jones on a synth...not sure exactly which one. But I love it in combo with the power chords that Page is playing. Also, Jones' bass work throughout the song is amazing...and Bonham is a beast, as always. The song has some great changes throughout...and the end absolutely stomps. Love the reactions, keep up your great content.
I wouldn't swear to it, but I think the keyboard you're hearing is John Paul Jones' Mellotron M400. If not, it's probably his Fender Rhodes Electric Piano.
Still got my album in a paper bag! Lol. Almost forgot about this song. It’s been years since i have heard it and it was great to see you react to it! Thanks!
This is one of my top favorite Led Zeppelin songs ever, just cause it’s such a departure from their usuals stuff. It’s really an interesting tune as well, I never get sick of it, and can’t shake the slow part from head.. just love the energy and space that part has. Btw, If I’m not mistaken, I believe this was the theme music chosen for the awesome Night Flight late night video show we all used to love back in the 80’s, which was responsible for turning a lot of us on to a huge amount of amazing array of all kinds music and fun cult films. It was really everything MTV could’ve and SHOULD’VE been.
@@grandwazoo870 It was my favorite thing on cable TV out of the many decades since it’s been around. We always loved The Midnight Special, but Night Flight had New Wave Theater and all kinds of videos followed by the weirdest movies you could hope to find. So glad to see they have an app now for Night Flight Plus, but sadly it’s pretty tough to get it to stream a whole show without crashing once or twice.. but it’s worth the hassle just for the varied content they offer.
Its great seeing the young generation finding Zeppelin. I was in 10th grade when this album came out, I was not super fond of it but loved this song, it was just such a departure from other Zeppelin stuff i have grown to appreciate it with age. Brings back great memories. Led Zeppelin will always be the greatest in my book no matter how many years go by. ✌️
Congrats on the subscribers Silas, I mean what's not to like about your page, nice well lit room yet not overly bright...great sound, excellent mic...volume level and sound when the music plays, you listen to the music rather then talking all over it and also like you were just saying...you're not put off by longer songs, I think in general lots of rock songs in this era were 4 to 5 minutes for singles and Pink Floyd and LZ as well as others routinely did 8 or 9 minutes songs...and lastly you're just a really cool friendly kid, always have a smile and a sharp inquisitive mind...and I like you have occasional and different guests..keeping things fresh and interesting. Keep doing what you're doing man, lots of subscribers will find you !!
@4:20, where it sounds familiar at "basketball games" or something: @Silas Bailey, I think you're probably thinking of the theme to the movie ROCKY with Sylvester Stallone. (Boxing, Basketball, they both start with "B"...). Yeah, that keyboard hook is very similar...never thought of it before, myself, but now, I can't unhear it...you could mash the two up, and they'd fit perfectly together... (There IS a famous basketball entrance song, though, taken from rock: "Sirius" by the Alan Parsons Project (which leads into "Eye In The Sky", used by the Chicago Bulls during the Michael Jordan era...)
Love it! The Magical Keyboard sounds are courtesy of JP Jones and his Monstrous Yamaha GX-1 - over 1000 pounds of machine and around $60,000 in the late seventies - the most powerful polyphonic synthesizer in history at the time.
Yeah, next to "In The Evening", this is my #2 favorite on the album, "Fool In The Rain" and "All Of My Love" are great in their own right, it's just they got a lot of air play on the radio (still do). They a;ways seem to overlook the diamonds in the ruff.This song is just the type that you want to sit back, enjoy and chill to. Thanks for this reaction, it was awesome!
Thank you for playing this album. I underestimated it then. Was already in the military with Presence and couldn't listen to/discover the two albums in peace (there was no walkman yet). The production and the song material is different, the voice less bluesy, mixed differently. LZ reacted this way because in the UK the media NME and MM were totally into punk and ignored or even wrote down the old rock bands. Animals was titled Punk Floyd. I love this "musical journey" song as well as Fool and the next one. I found the opener weak, kind of annoying rhythm, although LZ often played it live. Now I will look for a concert around 1979 with the above good songs and Achilles to download. Have a good time, I look forward to the next ones.
Such a different album than Presence. And Presence is very different than its predecessor. Move on to Coda next and you've got a whole other beast made up of old, unused songs from throughout their career. Critics were down on Coda, but I think it's got some interesting, fun songs. I particularly like "Bonzo's Montreux".
Congratulations on getting to 10K…been a part of your journey through Zep since the beginning and now we are here, the last studio album. This song is, for me, the best one of the album and most likely what they would have sounded like during the 80s if Bonzo hadn’t passed away. John Paul Jones had a heavy influence on this album because when it was being recorded etc he and Plant were the first ones in the studio and wrote most of the songs together. Page and Bonham were struggling with various substance problems and were late to rehearsals and recordings Really glad you’re enjoying this album so far. It’s under rated but it’s still a solid album Let’s hit 20K 😊
Probably my favorite track from In Through the Out Door. It's so diverse you can't really anticipate where it's going to go other than on my favorite Songs Road Trip collection joining Achilles Last Stand, and Kashmir! Like others have mentioned the only draw back on this song is Robert Plants vocals are lost in the mix, making them unintelligible. But otherwise it's a major jam!
This song is one of my favorite LZ songs. I had tickets to see them in Michigan for this album tour - which was cancelled with the tragic death of Bonham. 😔
It's a shame Plant's great lyrics were somewhat lost in the mix! For a greater appreciation of his songwriting talent, I suggest you look up the lyrics to this song -- it's an amazing piece of poetry that tracks the history of the band from the heights of success through the borderline disfunction in place during the creation of this album, and Plant's frustration at band mates' lack of support following the sudden death of his son. I have to wonder if the lack of emphasis on the vocals in the mixing was Page's response (consciously or not) to the lyrics?
I thought those were really thoughtful comments about sometimes a long song that takes you on this whole journey is great to just be able to sink into and immerse yourself in. There are so many like that, Led Zeppelin and other bands of course, and that's one thing about that Rush 2112 album is, even though I love all those songs on the second side, I never ever get tired of hearing that whole first side because it's a whole journey; it's a whole story. And it has all these different textures but they all tie together and then it has this really blistering hard-rocking conclusion for the finale. But yeah good point, sometimes I like short songs and other times I like to go on a journey for sure.
One of the most important songs in the entire Zep catalog. Robert's vocals are buried in the mix, I suspect, because the lyrics of this song are Robert's indictment of Jimmy Page for Jimmy's perceived slight of Robert when Karac Plant died. Robert calls Jimmy out for what he believes is Jimmy's insensitivity, when Robert needed Jimmy's understanding most. This song foreshadows the end of the band.
Is it just me, or are the vocals sitting a bit too low in the mix? That's always been my problem with this track. I wouldn't swear to it, but I think the keyboard you're hearing is John Paul Jones' Mellotron M400. If not, it's probably his Fender Rhodes Electric Piano.
Strange beast, this song. I've always liked it, even though there's plenty "wrong" with it. The much mentioned burying of Plant's vocal and hence near total inaudibility of the words; the slightly wearing synth riff; the near absence of Page. Yet it's still kinda magnificent, isn't it? For me it's the rhythm section that carries the day. Bonham is on stonking form throughout, while JPJ's bassline is stunning, especially on the opening verses.
The best bits in the song are the slow crunchy guitars. Other than that it’s a bit meh. Fool In The Rain is the standout track on the album, a masterpiece.
Sadly Jimmy Page was in bad shape from heroine and Bonham had his own demons at this time. This left the album mostly on the shoulders of plant and Jones. So it's much more eclectic because of JPJ.
Jimmy on the double neck. Jones keyboards can be annoying. Too loud. Plant has fantastic lyric but buried in mix. Bonham in outro as song fades is fantastic. That rider cymbal and tom beat is fantastic. You can sense his maturity as a drummer.

That's a synthesizer playing the riff (Jones).
The bass is sick.

I find myself saying "hold up!" frequently now. 😄
Just wait until you start jumping out of your chair and standing behind it whenever a great song comes on 😂

@@JKM395it’s actually a Yamaha Synth that Jones bought right before the recording sessions
@@dickcnormis1444 Ah. I stand corrected. Got my keys mixed. Thank you!

@@CANDOKNOWHOW Yeah the app is a pain!
John Bonham was a beast on this album.
A great song, from an underrated album.
I've heard this album probably close to 500 times. It NEVER gets old!!!
That bass
Your right Silas. That's jpj making all those different sounds. He and Robert had a lot of influence on this album.
Wished they played this live,...wow!
@@RobertWhite1We bought tickets to the concert that never was, I think they were $20.😭
Me too! 😢
@@lynnschnekenburger7270 me too
still trying to find a boot of the version they worked up for the Celebration Day show.
4:03 I actually thought they were bagpipes at first, lol, Yeah they must be synths.
Love the grunt of recognition at 7:45. Yeah.
I luv watching your videos Silas!!! Honestly, you rock kid!! The GOATS DO IT AGAIN.
Best Song on album.
Its great seeing the young generation finding Zeppelin.

Favorite Zeppelin album! 🔥🤘✌
I have 2 friends that I introduced Zep too. Neither knew each other but this was both of thems favorite zep song

I wondered too. There are some particularly harsh criticisms of Page in the song.
It’s a Yamaha GX-1 keyboard. “The Dream Machine” so it was called.
This and Achilles last stand my favorites ,loved that you couldn't stay in your seat
I like the speed. Funky vibe towards the end. I’m a yes on this one!
Next live performance...Whole Lotta Love.

Another page /plant track ive slways respected. Its cool. John Paul Jones got a credit on this one.
JPJ and Bonham shine on this one!
Thats john pauls jones new keyboard the dream machine you hear!
2nd half hes playing bass....run thru a machine
An epic (one more)
You should definitely check out Stevie Ray Vaughan Tin Pan Alley live at rockplast (Germany)!! The best in my opinion
I watched one of your lives streams, and I have a suggestion why don’t you have some of your friends react with you might open the door for more subs
A lot of Rush-like elements to this.
try "Wearing and Tearing" next.
Un album donde la critica descalifico estupidamente,es un gran album adelantandose a muchas ondas de la musica y solo JPJ y compañia lo podian hacer.
Hi have a listen to Rainbow next , the song stargazer it’s very the band are top.
I saw them in concert when I was 11 and had to drive home because my uncle was on acid
The best bits in the song are the slow crunchy guitars. Other than that it’s a bit meh.
Fool In The Rain is the standout track on the album, a masterpiece.
Robert Plant on lead mumble. 🤔
🤪
the shame of this track is that Robert's vocals are pushed too far to the background. If not for this it would be pukka!
Synthesizer
Sadly Jimmy Page was in bad shape from heroine and Bonham had his own demons at this time. This left the album mostly on the shoulders of plant and Jones. So it's much more eclectic because of JPJ.
Как
Monster of a track this.
Only thing that makes this their worst album is its a bit synth heavy and Roberts vocals get buried sometimes
Jimmy on the double neck.
Jones keyboards can be annoying. Too loud.
Plant has fantastic lyric but buried in mix.
Bonham in outro as song fades is fantastic. That rider cymbal and tom beat is fantastic. You can sense his maturity as a drummer.
To each his own. Not a fan of this song. Did JPJ just get a new synthesizer? RP is barely heard.
Plant destroys Page in the lyrics.
Which is why ya cant make out what Plant is singing.....Check the lyrics
pretty bad album
Zeppelin never made a bad album, this album just wasn’t great like all the rest.
how is it bad
the hard rock only guys are the ones who don't like this type of album
