Sorry about the video being covered on this reaction! I would not have been able to post this video at all if I didn't block it, sadly. Thank you for understanding!
It's ok!!
unacceptable
@zelchapojr8125 it's not her fault it's youtube's you know 🤔
@@winchester7861 I think that was meant as a joke.
There was a Yin to the Led Zepp Yang
Pink Floyd "Time" from the album The Dark Side of the Moon
My father always said, "No talking when Led Zeppelin is playing".
Also, it doesn't matter how many times you listen to Led Zeppelin, it's like listening to them for the first time.
wise man
well said
This is your reaction 54 years after this song was released, imagine how this shocked everyone at the end of 1969 when it dropped? *Back Door Man* was a common phrase used in blues lyrics to describe her side-guy sneaking out the back door when her man got home, or possible sneaking "in" the back door when he went to work? LZ took the top spot from The Beatles who had held it since 1962, with this song!
That's a great call on "sneaking in," lol, I had always assumed it was about sneaking OUT. Not that I have a guilty conscience about having ever been in that position, nooooo, why, not at all!
Thats so naive it's about anal sex of course.The whole song is about sex and you think thats about sneaking out the door???? Thats hilarious.
Yeah. I was going to say exactly what you said. There's the obvious sexual connotation, but the back door man was a common blues trope long before Whole Lotta Love. Chicago Blues Legend Willie Dixon wrote a song titled Back Door Man, recorded by Howlin' Wolf and later covered by The Doors.
BTW, The Doors would be a great band for a Stacey reaction.
@@sanzoftatooine Oh for sure--and it's always fun to see the women freak out over the maleness, mystery and madness that was Jim Morrison!
I disagree, the term back door man was used to reference a man who was allowed the 'back door' of a woman's body - anal.
Greatest band to ever grace the planet!! Period!! Pure talent!
Love them a lot!!
@@StaceyRPGReacts Check out this video of Jack Black at the Kennedy Center Honors when they honored Led Zeppelin. Every true Zeppelin fan must do a Zeppathon at least once in their lifetime. Best band ever!

The GOAT!
"One of..." - different folks are goint to have different orders for their "best" band top ten*, but they're 100% going to be on that list.
*And that's a GOOD thing, variety is the spice of life.
What about Pink Floyd and Jethro Tull? All three are fantastic... 🥴
I'm 67 and remember how this band and many others rocked and ruled my childhood. Now over 50 years later the music I grew up with still rules
If you want to keep it steamy, 'Since I've Been Loving You' is a lot slower, but you'll still feel it. 'The Immigrant Song' is nice and energetic, and you may have heard it in a movie somewhere, like Thor: Ragnarok. 'Kashmir' is another famous masterpiece.
TOTALLY AGREE👍👍👍👍
Since I've Been Loving You is long and boring and way overrated (especially that god awful wank fest from the MSG performance). Nothing beats the 4 song performance from the 1969 Danish (black and white) TV appearance....nobody knew who they were yet, and they had something to prove (and they sure did).
Figuratively speaking I think every woman in the first 6 rows of the audience made love to Mr Plant during the Since I've Been Loving You performance ..... and maybe , practically speaking , some of them did 😉 .
There's a video on youtube called What makes John Bonham so great that breaks down why Kashmir is so full of tension and so amazing. Kashmir next!
Omg it’s going to be cold shower time after Since I’ve Been Loving You. I don’t lean that way myself, but Robert is the exception to the rule!
My sister was at the " Cropredy " festival in the UK in the summer just gone enjoying many 70s bands and who was standing nearby amongst the crowd enjoying a beer with friends...
Robert Plant... no drama , no security , no entourage . Just a guy enjoying the music and the sun with hundreds of other music lovers . Total legend . 🙂 .
Wow thank you for sharing! Thats amazing!
He's often to be seen nattering away with strangers at a local pub.
This is one of their most sexual songs, another notable song being The Lemon Song, but their songs run the gamut from mystical to tenderly beautiful (Stairway to Heaven leaning in that direction) to straight ahead good time rock to gritty blues. You've got a lot of revelations awaiting you if you continue on this Led Zeppelin journey. it's worth the trip.
You nailed it when you said this song was a cultural shift, at least musically. Imagine being 18 years old in 1969, cruising around town at night listening to the radio and out blasts for the first time Led Zeppelin and Whole Lotta Love for the first time. Nothing sounded like them before. OMG! That blues/rock rift that explodes at the end of the psychedelic interlude is epic.
Hi Stacey,
Great reaction.
Just keep in mind that the back door man is to be understood as the lover running away through the back door when he heard the husband opening the front door.
This song is one of the very good example of Led Zeppelin being inspired by some very old songs, but not actually covering them. Instead, they recreated them completely, inventing something new. If you have a chance to listen to the old blues "You Need Love" by Willie Dixon, you will hear the blues from the origins. Turn all the buttons up to 11, and you move from the tender acoustic caress to the nuclear electric act. A few minutes after, probably without even knowing it, they had invented Hard Rock.
Have fun
Yeah, I wanted to also clear up the meaning of "back door man" back then. We all understood this 50 years ago, but today it is obscure and easy to misinterpret.
Ahhh... the double entendre between the here and then 😊
Zeppelin anticipated the future and created the OF-version, that's how badass they were.
Led Zeppelin is considered one of the most, if not the most, talented band in the world. Taking on and dominating multiple styles of music. Their live performances are improvisational while their studio performances are much tighter. Each band member is considered one of the bests in their role.
The very first time they played together John Paul Jones knew they were going to be a complete juggernaut. He was the top session musician in England at the time and he had no trouble quittting session work to start Led Zeppelin.
You absolutely need to do Led Zeppelin’s “Since I’ve Been Loving You” the live version. I’ve been a fan for many years, and hearing this song made me appreciate how diverse this amazing band is. A bluesy classic for sure.
I have rediscovered Led Zeppelin with the reaction videos. I sure didn't appreciate them in the 60s, 70s and 80's, but I do now. The greatest band, talent and chemistry ever. Having a great time listening to the Hammer of the gods.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
At the end when Robert said his last words "Thank you very much, thank you", you kind of giggled and signed and I thought the next words out of your mouth were gonna be "No, Thank you very much". hehe.
Great Reaction.
Great reaction! 👍 🤘🤟😸
"Since I've Been Loving You" live at MSG in 1973 is Led Zeppelin at their absolute best, IMO.
Try the 1973 performance at Madison Square Garden from the album/ film "The Song Remains the Same" (the same concert as your Stairway reaction). Awesome !! That said, if you want to go down the rabbit hole the best way to get the full Led Zeppelin experience is to go from start to finish, meaning start with Led Zeppelin 1 and go through each song on each album. You will hear some great (and at time surprising) music and hear the evolution of the band. You'll also learn why they are still regarded as the best rock band ever!
and the late great Peter Grant - best manager ever (also suggest they drop the A in Lead...) plus Bonham in his dragster!!!
In 1971 a bunch of kids from high school were going to Bristol to see a band I'd never heard of, so I joined them. Yes, it was Led Zeppelin. And yes, I was blown away. It was just after the release of LZ2, with Whole Lotta Love and Stairway to Heaven. Incredible! So loud I couldn't hear properly for a week. That was my introduction to rock music.
Fantastic reaction! Yes, it's a very sexual song. Considering the era this was written "Backdoor man" most likely refers to a man that a woman would sneak out the backdoor so as not to get caught. Perhaps in a situation like cheating in relationship or even as simple as a one night stand. Not that it may not have been reference to the other thing, but looking at the terminology of the times. Yes, music today is far more graphic, and not that this isn't graphic, but this is good and it's not graphic for shock value. I'm happy you enjoyed it. Please react to "Since I've Been Loving You" the live version soon. Cheers!
Husband goes out to work through the front door and the milkman/plumber sneaks in the backdoor.
same reference in "Since I've Been Loving You" - but he ain't the backdoor man, he's chasing the man who is sleeping with his woman
That point in the song when you realize what the song is actually about, priceless 🥰
Yes, they did not hold back with this song. Simple but, eh, powerful. There is a reason why it has been covered on stage countless times by countless bands. And I can confirm from own experience that it is always fun to play on stage and people love it. This will probably never change. It is a timeless piece of music, because some things never change, and some topics never get boring.
Obviously, it still works today. 😀
Fun reaction!
Very timeless! I love how bold they are with this song! Thank you for your kind words 🫶🏻
I discovered led zeppelin and was immediately thunderstruck, I started listening to everything possible taking care to enjoy the journey I was taking without burning out the stages....Finally I fell madly in love with them...Today 25 years after my first listen, to put it their way, The song remanis the same. Robert plant became my idol and because of him I realized how important it was to sing to feel truly free. Thank you master Rob and thank You Stacey for showing how wonderful things gain value over time, to be a rock and not to roll!!!❤❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘🤘
That entire gig is incredible. They were still kids here. The singer and drummer were 21. It was jimmys 26th birthday and hes the oldest. The sweater hes wearing was knitted by his mum for his birthday. How rock n roll is that 😂
Since the Back Door Man thing's been cleared up - and no worries about that haha - here are some lyrical touchstones. You'll probably see a live version of Since I've been Loving You by Led Zeppelin suggested a lot in the comments. One of the lyrics is roughly "open my front door, hear my back door slam," another reference to a literal back door man. So much more to love about that song and performance too!
Speaking of music that can invoke a lot of sexual feeling, their early contemporaries The Doors are always worth a mention, with songs like Light My Fire; Hello, I Love You; Touch Me; Roadhouse Blues; People Are Strange and loads more. Their first album even had a cover of Back Door Man, a blues that if memory serves, Willie Dixon wrote. He influenced Led Zep and many others too
I know everyone is saying listen to Since Ive Been Loving You, next. My suggestion is also try Kashmir and When the Levee Breaks. Both some of the most soulful rock you will ever hear. Thanks 😊
Once again, another EXCELLENT assessment of the GREATEST rock band of ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL time!!!
Next up, "The Lemon Song" by Led Zeppelin.
Squeeze, squeeze me, baby, until the juice runs down my leg
The way you squeeze my Lemon I'm gonna fall right outta bed...
She shakes a bit when Plant sings, "shake for me, girl" but @ 9:19 the look on her face had me crying with laughter.... I need a nurse over here! Yo!
I’ve watched a lot of reaction videos, but just on my second viewing of yours, I’m hooked! Amusing, insightful comments and a very smooth and eminently watchable delivery; well done!! 👏👏👏
8:51 that crowd members "WOOOMAAAAN!" Was actually pretty on point 😂
LOL I didn’t even notice that! Thank you for taking the mystery out of that part for me hahaha
You can never go wrong with a Led Zeppelin song
Sometimes lyrics can be ambiguous and open to interpretation, but, not so in this case.
It was the end of the 60's when their 2nd album was released after all.
Yes they were very straight forward with this one!
Regarding “I wanna be your backdoor man”, back then it meant “your secret lover who sneaks out the back door at night before your husband comes home”. Use in this song was inspired by the blues song “Backdoor Man” written by Willy Dickson for Howlin’ Wolf in 1960.
not quite, it's about anal sex
Her face when she realised, brilliant.
You would love Led Zeppelin's - The song remains the same/The rain song (Live MSG 1973)
I saw them twice. 1975 & 1977. This song is always a highlight. Jimmy playing with a Cello bow is crazy. Glad you enjoyed it. My cat, who looked very similar was named YoYo. Great watching with you both.
Yeah, awesome song by a killer band! Led Zeppelin will rock your world and make your planets twirl!😊
New sub here! Just got done watching your first Led Zep reaction Stairway to Heaven...which was great....now this!! Your reactions are so genuine and fun to watch!! I love how you get into the music and feel it...that is the beauty of great music....how it moves us...and your reaction to this, how it made you groove to the raw sexuality. This tune has set the mood to many romps in the bedroom through the years...who knows how many babies have been conceived to this tune, LOL! :) Keep up the great work and look forward to more Led Zep reactions!
I'm so glad you did this live extended version of Whole Lotta Love. I really like this one because it shows their improvisation ways to do their own songs, so every live shows have their uniqueness.
They are amazing live performers!
I was fortunate enough to see them live in 1977. My first live concert. I was BLOWN away. One of the reasons I play guitar is the influence of that performance
The euphemism, "back door man," has a double meaning. The other of which I'm sure has already been covered in previous comments. The use of double entendres was quite common in blues music which the fellas in Led Zeppelin were well versed. They "borrowed" many phrases and sometimes entire songs from that particular genre. Led Zeppelin's vibe is primal and cosmic at the same time. Always a joy to see younger generations discover and appreciate this music.
You should watch babe I’m gonna leave you live 1969, his voice was impeccable back then
My favorite! ❤
i am Brazilian, so when i first heard this song i didnt have a clue what it was about, only when i learned english i knew what he meant with "way down inside im gonna give you every inch of my love"
The best band great reaction
Didn't know that young Jami Gertz had a music reaction YT channel. My silly notion aside, I like how how you immerse yourself in music and talk just enough over it never losing the focus on the band you're listening to. You've gained a subscriber.
By the way, keep on with Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin! Although, there are many great rock bands from this era to cover... Deep Purple, Rainbow, Def Leppard, AC/DC, Thin Lizzy, Blue Oyster Cult, etc.
i can see JG or Odette Annable... 70s Rock is the best rock. 80s is great too.
@@chuckleezodiac24 Agreed. On all counts.
Since I've been loving you!
I was reliably informed by several women at the time that the tempo of the studio version of this song was perfect. Robert Plant's stage presence was quite different from other contemporaries . He had the raw sexuality of Jim Morrison but unlike Morrison, Plant had an engaging personality and a warm smile he was not afraid to use. He genuinely looked like he was enjoying himself. His interactions with the audience were playful and felt personal, even amid tens of thousands of people. There was no absence of confidence with Robert Plant Not even a missed note or mixed up lyric would bother him. He might even reference it mid song.
You should check out 'Since I've Been Loving You' live at MSG
You have GOT to do Led Zep "In my time of dying" One of the strangest songs, but at the same time, one of the coolest of all time!! Different tempos throughout, absolute BANGING DRUMS!! Trust me on this one! PS you are a very beautiful woman
Agreed. Studio version is best
I wasn't trying to hit on you, was just stating the obvious! Just giving a positive compliment in this negative world, besides, I'm old enough to be your dad. LOL
Another song that is a MUST do. is Lynyrd Skynyrd Freebird live at the Knebworth, England festival! Absolute fire! Stones were headliners at this festival and told ALL bands to not go out on the (rollong stones tongue) of the stage, but of course Ronnie Van Zandt made his guitatarists do just that during the solos. They almost got into fist fights back stage with stones, after. All music critics said, Skynyrd BLEW the stones off the stage!!!!
Thank you, Stacy, my daily dose. Of Led Zeppelin.
That is what this song was all about! Jaw dropping back in the day!
Legendary artists can only produce moments and music like this!
Led Zeppelin really was something else at the time, and regardless of how much time goes on, they'll always be one of the biggest music references.
I listen to a few of their musics from time to time and this one is defenitively on the list!
Oh and... your facial expressions >>>>>>
Lmao!
Hahaha lots and lots of facial expressions!!
@@StaceyRPGReacts LOL, yes, and be warned: I'm about to get crudely stereotypical, but truthful, heh: Zeppelin videos tend to bring out "stank faces" among guy reactors as they get into the funky rhythms, guitar solos or drumming, and, along with some similar stank face from a funky riff, you also see uncontrollable smiles/laughs and widened eyes and raised eyebrows among women viewers/reactors! Sheeeit, it's why they're one of the most popular reaction bands, ha!
The first music I ever bought were Led Zep 1 & 2 and Heartbreaker by Free! 1969!
Crazy! You went from Stairway to Hvn right to Whole lotta love. Such versatility. Backdoor man can be taken couple ways. Yes, the way you were thinking and also slipping out the backdoor! Next up- Immigrant Song. You may even recognize Roberts primal scream in this one. Then the really sexy "Since Ive been lovin you-Live MSG 1973" Keep going and Enjoy!
She was ready to mingle at the end of the song... good job Led Zeppelin 👍😉🎉
I was 14 years young when this album came out and I had never heard anything like it, but it was love at first listen. I just love your honest reaction to this sensual piece of music. The heat is spreading like ripples. You getting warm made me sweat. Keep up your fantastic and honest reviews.
The thing about LZ is that every version is different enough to be a new experience, especially if you watch them chronologically.
Nice pickup, Robert Plant indeed said that with the skill of his band mates he worked hard to make his voice another instrument.
So pleased you had fun with this song😂 an instrumental of this was used on top of the Pops show on tv in the uk every week
Lol..thanks for the laugh...poor cat...tyty awesome reaction ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
"back door man" had a different meaning back then, similar to the one you're thinking but different.
BEST band ever, EVER!
That being said, I am pretty sure Plant knew what the other meaning was. Lol. I mean, I knew what it was in H.S. in 1974. When I was 14.
@boki1693 I mean, then he was referring to him being her side piece.. today people hear backdoor man and assume it's butt stuff, kids are wild today
@@chrisw3421 Oh, I know but what I was saying was by the time I started H.S. in 1974, my buds and I were using the term "back door" for the sexual reference. So me at 14 thinking it meant that, I am sure Plant in 1969 also knew both meanings. So I think he got away with it because it was an old blues phrase. But I also think he knew the other meaning as well, if I knew it 5 years later at 14.
@@boki1693 right on, bro. "back door = butt stuff" has been around in print since 1592 in the UK -- Green's Dictionary of Slang.
1 key reason they were so speciel is robert used his voice like and instrument and himmy played guitar like its a voice. All 4 of them are MASTERS and their chemistry is unmatched
Some radio stations refused to play this song and The Lemon song because of the lyrics. When they came out.
I think this was the very first Zep song I heard not knowing anything about meaning at a too young age , originally by Willie Dixon and Muddy Waters and the backdoor man was the Maytag Repairman that just was there to fix the washing machine with the faulty spin cycle ...
Hey Stacey, shout out from Montreal... love your taking interest in discovering music I grew up on... timeless songs, many of them. Led Zep had a very Bluesy side to them and you might want to let yourself sway to "Since I've Been Loving You" live at Madison Square Garden 1973. Jimmy Page's lead guitar strumming shows why he is one of the greats... and Robert Plant's presence is masterful.
Next, there is a music foundation called "Playing for Change" and they did a cover of Zeppelin's "When The Levee Breaks" which features Led Zep bassman John Paul Jones and musicians from all over the world... a must see for you.
Finally, you mentioned that you like guitar! Well then, you have to listen and watch Stevie Ray Vaughn (SRV) perform "Texas Flood" live at the El Mocambo !!! You ain't never heard guitar playing this good! He is considered by many as the GOAT of blues guitar!!! Enjoy!!!
This was my first listen to this performance. Lol. Thanks for video.
Great reaction Stacey to this song & Stairway to Heaven! Although there are many great Zeppelin songs to react to, another one you'd like is "Since I've Been Loving You", live at Madison Square Garden, in 1973.
Your reaction to "I wanna be your backdoor man" was priceless.
Seen Led Zeppelin 2 times, once in 1977 on April 1, 1977 Toronto, at the Maple Leaf Gardens, then on October 17 , 1980 in Montreal, at the Montreal Forum, and my best friend bought tickets for Robert Plant's solo tour on June 10, 1985 at The Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver, BC, Canada!! Led Zeppelin are truly amazing live and so sexy!! Robert Plant during his solo tour was amazing as well and just as sexy , like fine wine he ages so well! Had front row tickets to all 3 shows!! Going to see Robert on Wednesday

Queen Elizabeth Theatre Vancouver, BC
Can't wait!!! ❤️🥰🤘
LZ didn't play Canada in 1980 and the show in Toronto on April 1, 1977 was cancelled and they played in Dallas instead. These are easily checked facts.
Full stop, John Bonham died on Sept 25, 1980. You DID NOT see them In October of 1980.
Also, April 1, 1977 Led Zeppelin played in Dallas. There are videos on RUclips of the performance, I’ll never understand why clowns need to make shit up 🤯
Shame on you
This guitar riff is widely considered the best of all time..."Kashmir" is probably the 2nd best by LZ, but i'm sure there are folks who disagree...anyway, the "back door man" reference comes up again in "Since I've Been Loving You" - from LZ III - but the version to react to (IMHO) is from the '73 MSG concert - most folks who do these reaction videos can find a version that won't be blocked and we can see the video as you react...also, I do highly recommend reacting to "Kashmir" from the 1979 Knebworth concert...if you were impressed by the drummer (John Bonham) here, you will be blown away by the drum fills during "Kashmir" - it is also, to the best of my knowledge, the last time John Bonham played live before his tragic death...thanks again for starting this journey and look forward to you getting to 10K, 25K, 50K, etc. sub's...you are doing an awesome job and us old guys just love remembering when we first heard this music in the 70's...happy holidays!
She needs to hear the studio original sometime, agree, one of the best riffs ever. And Heartbreaker opens the other side just as nasty!
I know that I am late to the commenting on this. I grew up on this music, and specifically this song. I am pretty sure that I was conceived to this song. I know that my father listened to Led Zeppelin on the way to the hospital when my mother went into labor. My father used to put headphones on us and have us close our eyes while listening to this song. He would then change the speakers from left to right during the instrument section. It sounded like be circled by motorcycles. When I started buying my own music at 15, Led Zeppelin was in my first 100 albums I purchased. Back in the days of CDs and audio tapes, I had a massive collection of music, but it would not have been complete without Led Zeppelin being in there.
A “back door man” is a secret lover who enters the home from the back door so the neighbors won’t see him going in and out.
When I first heard this song as a kid, I never really analyzed the lyrics. All I knew was that Led Zeppelin was a band whose songs like 'Stairway to Heaven', 'Kashmir', 'Black Dog' and this one were frequently played on FM radio. So without having much musical knowledge, I just thought they were a great sounding band. It wasn't until I became a young adult that I started thinking about lyrics. Two other classic songs of this period that come to mind that are great not only musically, but lyrically as well are Aerosmith's 'Dream On' and Boston's 'More Than A Feeling.' Hope you could cover those as well.
British bands of this era were inventing rock music, arguably they have never been bettered.
Please read up the the history of Led Zep, their story will never be repeated.
LZ: Since I've been Loving You. It's my favorite song and a must listen to. Dazed and Confused is another. There's a shit ton of songs really.
The version from How The West Was Won is great when they break into a medley of songs during the middle part.
I just came across your video. Welcome to the rabbit hole! Robert isn’t singing to the crowd, he’s singing to you! That’s what’s got you all worked up! lol It happens to everyone.
First, keep in mind WHEN this album/song came out. Originally released in 1969, when censorship was still running amuck and it was surprising this song was even released. The entire instrumental part is symbolizing the love making between two people, the highs and lows, and finally a climax, then into the ending.
Welcome to the 70. Drugs, sex, and rock and roll. And not necessarily in that order.😊
Even at the same time ;)
@Stacey_RPG_Reacts I am at your disposal
"As long as there's sex and drugs, I can do without the rock 'n' roll."
I strongly suggest you the Chicago 1971 footage of this particular song...
Check out : Rock n Roll - When The Levy Breaks , also by Zeppelin. Those are only 2 of many . You'd be surprised , but some of Zeppelin songs are older blues songs.
This performance is from The Royal Albert Hall in January 9, 1970. By the time of this concert, their second had been on the record store shelves barely more than 2 months.
Their musical diversity is unbelievable. Like many other people suggested, you need to do “Since I’ve Been Loving You” live at MSG. So cool seeing younger people discovering LZ
Great reaction to this Blushmeister 5000! I just came over from your "Stairway" reaction, and glad u saw THIS version of WLL, where Robert did a lot of the "talking" to the audience that u picked up on him doing in "Stairway," with his gestures and whatnot. His pants not as tight here, lol, but voice in better shape than '73 (This is '70). And I dug your comment about the "lovemaking instruments," heh. Always a hoot to see Robert's "heat effect" on women watching him for the first time--yes, you're in good, almost universal company with that, ha! "Back door man," however was NOT so naughty. Zeppelin loved old blues songs, and that was a "Blues" expression meaning the cheater who RAN OUT the back door when they heard the boyfriend/husband coming IN the front door! SO Robert sings "I wanna be your back door man." Good call on the drummer. John Bonham, arguably the best rock drummer EVER. Alas, he died in 1980, and Zeppelin disbanded soon after. Each member was as equally talented as the others. Robert called them "The Ultimate Quartet." Best rock band ever, imo. I'll STFU now, but great reaction, looking forward to more of Zep and others!
This is the first Black Sabbath song I ever heard. Hot summer day, tons of hay bales out in the field. One of the crew plugged this grungy looking eigth-track into the player in the truck, spun the volume knob to 11. Blew me away. Became a lifetime fan. This was 1970. I was 15.
So many things...first and foremost is Ozzy. Such an iconic voice...such an iconic presence. While I do not believe he is the most proficient vocalist, he was and is my all time favorite vocalist. C'mon... he's Ozzy! How can you not love him?
Tony Iommi is the guitarist. At his last day of work, having given notice to become a full time musician, he somehow clipped the fleshy pads off his middle and ring finger if his right hand. Having a gig the following night, he covered the boo-boos with a couple thimbles he 'borrowed' from his grandmother. After weeks of fiddling around he found better prosthetics AND de-tuned his guitar, reducing the pressure required to play...and yes, Stacey, it takes a lot of pressure to press the tightly wound strings down to the frets. Guitarists develop deep, hard callises on their fingertips. Anyway...by the time Tony adjusted guitar tuning (string pressure) and adapted prosthetics that worked, the Black Sabbath sound came alive. To this day, Tony wears his 'tip-guards' whenever he plays.
Too bad about the video but the audio was outstanding, this was one of the best live versions I've ever heard. As crazy as this was, you need to see/hear Dazed and Confused live at Madison Square Garden 1973, incredible jam, they are utter Rock Gods and were one of a few great bands that influenced everyone after. Enjoy and more Zeppelin, please! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
I heard that full video is no longer available on YT, which is such a disappointment
Stacy review " Babe I'm gonna leave you" studio version if you really want hear Robert Plants voice. No Led Zeppelin song showcases his voice like it. Also Earls Court acoustic sets.
Great Review! This Song is Half an Year younger then myself, measured with the release Date, and i have to admit ...it aged better then me:) great You found L.Zepp besides NightW., great Music mostly Timeless.
Your Exitement , seen first Hand here, is always worth an Watch!
Stay Healthy!
Great reaction. Backdoor man means many things depending upon when penned, so take your pick. Also the intrumental solo was the band trying to express an orgasm just with instruments.
Back door man is a blues term for when the husband leaves the house and the wifes lover comes in the back door; its not what most people think.
The greatest Band ever
The high pitched guitar echos etc is coming from a “THEREMIN”. There are videos explaining how it works. Jimmy Page uses a violin bow while using the Theremin. Brilliant.
Zeppelin along with Sabbath and Deep Purple changed the course of Rock..I would like you to watch Heart perform Stairway to Heaven at Led Zeppelin's Kennedy Center Honors Award Show.
My first time seeing Zeppelin was 1971 as a 19 year old and that concert was incredible
Thanks for sharing your journey. Despite having less musical background…. Your enjoyment of the music is captivating❤❤
In those days, there were groups dedicated to proof Led Zeppelin was a devils driven band. Even by playing the records backwards they ment to hear the devils voice. This also happened to The Rolling Stones.
Their music is timeless.
If you like bands interacting with the fans then Iron Maiden is a must. "Hallowed Be Thy Name" - Flight 666 (the lead singer is flying the plane), "Fear of the Dark" - Live at Rock in Rio, or "Dance of Death" - En Vivo!. Up the Irons! \m/ \m/
Thank you for the suggestion!!
Hi....GREAT reaction! You touched on what made bands of that time so great (sorry, I said "touched"). Since radio (and later MTV when they actually played music) was how a band got heard, leading to album sales and sold out tours, they used to euphemisms, metaphors and non-explicit double language to allow for air-play. Whole Lotta Love has realistically been played over the air MILLIONS of times. Ann Wilson of Heart has sung "Lemme go CRAZY on you" just as often. Another GREAT Led Zeppelin live performance from (without researching it I'm 90% sure) the same concert that you saw "Stairway To Heaven" performed, try "Led Zeppelin - Since I've Been Loving You (Live at Madison Square Garden 1973) [Official Video]". Also, when you try a new band I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Jackyl - The Lumberjack, your brain will find a way to explode and implode simultaneously.
Hey! I'm a "Stacey," too! Back door man = the guy who sneaks in the back door of the house, as the husband leaves through the front door
Actually my mom and dad never said anything about our rock music. They did not think it would corrupt us. It was music.
the first time I heard this song was on AM radio in 1969 when I was in 6th grade and right before I was to leave for school.
I had my little radio on and my mom could hear the music and she did not freak out or say anything.
I am glad to see you are a history nerd. So am I. Total history nerd here.
Robert Plant had and as you found out still has that effect on women. I am sure you are not alone. I saw the live twice back in 1977 and it was terrific. Thank you for the nice reaction.
Robert is 75 and still has the same effect on women!! 🌊😋
