Bonzo. The greatest rock drummer of all time. No one hit them drums harder.
BONZO was an original, never to be replaced 😅
There is an expanded version of this album that has songs you have to hear.
Hey, hey, what can I do
Traveling riverside blues
Baby come on home
Just to name a few
Absolutely.....second this.
Led Zeppelin - Hey Hey What Can I Do (REACTION)

@@AirplayBeats Traveling Riverside Blues and Baby Come On Home are excellent tracks. Both blues based....and fantastic.
Bonzo was King Kong of the drums. When I’m feeling a little down, I crank this up to max volume in my truck, cruising down the road and after five minutes, I feel amazing!
More Zep info.: This album was released after Bonzo died and Zep was contractually obligated to release one more album, so Jimmy went into the vault and pulled out previously unreleased recordings. A very under rated album but has some great songs recorded over many years. Love that La And Che love this band as much as I have for decades!! Thanks guys!
same
Contract reasons? I thought they were their own bosses for a long time. That aside - We're Gonna Groove is a gem from this album, how it never made it on an earlier is odd
@@dannywachowski5880I was thrilled and flabbergasted when "Led Zeppelin DVD" was released in 2004 with the full Royal Albert Hall concert, which includes the source tracks for "We're Gonna Groove" and "I Can't Quit You Baby." There's an entire missing guitar solo from the album version of that second tune that I was unaware of for years and years.
@@joeday4293 I've seen footage of that gig here and there, I'd love to buy that DVD
This is essentially a Samba Batucada, which are the drum cadences played in Carnaval samba festivals, such as in Brasil, Argentina, Portugal, etc... Bonzo had become really interested in Latin music when he created this. Watch some samba festival parades, and you will here the same vibe. And when you have the visions of those Samba dancers in your head, it makes it that much better!
"Wearing and Tearing" is another Bonzo-fueled gem from this album.
Yes!!
Probably my favorite track on this album. Medication!
@@PeterTea LOL, yeah, I love that line and always think of that "It's MEDICATION time..." scene in "One Flew Over..."
Zeppelin's outtakes are better than a lot of bands prime work
Absolutely right!
He uses the stop and go method from many of if their songs. The best ever, like the band itself.
I have been a Zep fan since I was in middle school in the early 70's. I have book called, 'Led Zeppelin-All The. Songs, The Story Behind Every Track.' It states that that Page and Bonzo recorded this together. Bonzo had his drum kit and Page played the snare on the silver sparkle Ludwig and Bonzo was on his green sparkle drum set. Page brought in a tamari, timbales, congas, and other percussion instruments. Page added some enhanced reverb and a harmonizer to get some unique drum sounds and played percussion instruments along with Bonzo. A sound engineer was with the two as they recorded. JPJ and Plant were not in the studio at that time. Love your Zep reviews!!
I've never heard of Page on percussion, but I would not doubt it for a second!
That is probably the only book I don't have!
@@juliemanarin4127 You and me both, Julie, lol! Tho I bet you have more than me, but I have about 12-18 Zep books, and if this is the one I'm thinking of, I saw it in a "Half Price Books" (chain) store couple months ago. Used, but still like 14 bucks. I decided to be a cheapskate and get it from the library (Nope!) or wait till it comes down more in a while. Looked like a great read, though!
Great info, thanks! I'd never have known this otherwise, prolly!
Ok guys, while it's true that there's only one more song on the 1982 version of CODA, the 1993 version of CODA has 4 more additional tracks on top of that. These additional tracks were taken from the Led Zeppelin Box Sets. Here are the 4 additional tracks. Please listen to these 4 tracks, because they are some of the greatest Led Zeppelin tracks of any found on any album, (although that can be said of almost any Led Zeppelin song). Here they are:
White Summer/Black Mountain Side
ruclips.net/video/2rm_B4Tka0k/видео.html
Travelling Riverside Blues
ruclips.net/video/ThyIlQnapJk/видео.html
Hey, Hey, What Can I Do
ruclips.net/video/epX8Th4aiMc/видео.html
Baby Come on Home
ruclips.net/video/ZAiifpkWZfA/видео.html
And that's it guys. Check those out, and you will have officially heard every Led Zeppelin track.
Peace
I would like to add St. Tristans sword to this list also from Coda Deluxe, please listen, thanks.
Yeah, I would say Baby Come on Home is better than everything else on Coda. I've never understood why it wasn't on a proper album, it's got such a vibe and would fit in with any of their early albums.
I agree. Such a great song!@@dolcenotte
Sugar Mama from the deluxe edition of LZ1 is a cool track they should react to as well.
I have always felt the Last Song
on this album Wearing and Tearing
is a Glimpse of where Led Zeppelin was going to go musically in the 1980's if sadly John H. Bonham did not Die
Plus Jimmy had said
him and Bonham had talked about
after the In Through the Out Door
album they wanted to get back to the Roots of Heavier and Hard Rock Sounds for the Band at least in the Next Album that never came to be
R.I.P. John Henry Bonham 🥁
This was something only Jimmy knew existed. Jimmy and Bonzo had been jamming in the studio without the other two when Jimmy decided to record Bonzo's drum work. Jimmy added a Harmonizer and some other studio production techniques to create this. He said the other two were very surprised when he brought this out to include on CODA because they'd never heard it before. If you watch In The Evening from Knebworth, you'll hear a drum effect similar to this - it might be the Harmonizer but I don't recall for certain, at the moment.
some of that sound is from jimmy with the guitar isn't it
No guitar on this song. Only percussion instruments. @@willyroussel3563
@@willyroussel3563 Hi there, I'm not sure at the moment (I'm working at the office today and can't verify right now) but I'll edit my post if I come across different/additional info. 🙂
Oh God yes...1979 In The Evening!!
@@willyroussel3563Nope. All Bonzo. The liner notes for this track {paraphrased from memory) say something like "John Bonham - drums and percussion; Jimmy Page - 'treatments'." The source tracks are nothing but drums, and the pitched sounds you're hearing come from being run through a harmonizer and other effects. But the source material is nothing but the magic of one John Henry Bonham, rest in power.
Hendrix said John had the fastest foot in the business.
John Bonham , opened the door for Drummers, then closed it when he left ..
GO REST HIGH, BONZO
And that ladies and gentlemen is what a GOAT sounds like. 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
This track was recorded after Presence in Switzerland in September of 1976, before In Through The Out Door. After Bonham passed, Page added electronic treatments to the drum track, particularly towards the end. On the album cover, the credit for this track was given to the: "John Bonham Drum Orchestra." On the Remaster album of 1990, Page did a mash-up Of Moby Dick + Bonzo's Montreaux that was pretty cool.
Feel the power from an elite power drummer!
I never heard that before. It was awesome! You know how you can tell who's playing guitar as soon as you hear the first few notes? I think John Bonham is that drummer. As soon as you hear the drums you can tell who it is by the power of the tone when Bonzo comes in.
One more song to go? Can't believe you 're almost at the end of your Led Zeppelin journey of the studio albums.
I hope will continue with the live performances.
no other drummer in history sounded like bonham, NOBODY!!
Fact Check: Truth
Well... not *before* him, anyway. By 1978 or so, half the drummers on the radio sounded like him. Shoutout to Michael Derosier of Heart, who did the best Bonham impersonation on the radio.
no chance, iv never heard anybody sound like bonham@@joeday4293
That's all Bonzo; no guitars. The Eventide Harmonizer came out in '74; Page used it to create the steel drum sounds and Bonzo approved.
Bonzos beats are just so damn heavy
I enjoy the way you brothers put some humor in you reactions, gives me a good laugh! Keep it going!
"He killed that sh*t!" - yes he did.
I cannot wait till you do the very next track❗️❗️
I love hearing the kick drum squeaks.
fkn love it!!!!! Never heard it but it will be played on my EVs and it will be a neighborhood type thing. Thanks guys
It’s amazing how a song with just percussion can get stuck in your head like this one
WOW! I know I have heard this before and I even recognize the title, and I was a huge Led Zeppelin fan in junior high and high school, and then I think this came out when I was in college and so I bought it but I don't think I played it very much.
Fast forward several decades and years and years of playing in bands and recording things and basically being able to play all the instruments to a reasonable degree and some of them very well. This just blew me away..
One of the many things I like about your actions is the format of it because it allows me to go ahead and crank the volume way up if I need to without worrying about having to be ready to yank my headphones up or something when somebody says something into their overly loud microphone.
I just turned it up and immersed myself in it and it's like being in this John Bonham Paradise and it's fascinating. I was definitely air drumming to it!
At times I actually imagined it as the foundation for like a modern Hip Hop delivery on top of it, which I bet would absolutely kill.
There are some good patterns in there that would be a dope hip hop beat.
One word description? POWERFUL!!
Robert Plant solo please!! In the Mood, Big Log, Ship of Fool, Little by Little, Tall Cool One. Can’t believe we have come this far! Enjoy Wearing and Tearing the last one. Their interpretation of punk rock.
Fabulous little gem I'm so glad Jimmy (Yeah, it was actually Jimmy doing a lot of the "extra" stuff, not JPJ) and Bonzo did this on a sort of whim and that Jimmy had the wit to produce and slide it into the Vault for safekeeping and re-releasing. Next up is "Wearing and Tearing," a rip-roaring finish to a awesome album that is def more killer than "filler." You'll hear Robert's s high-pitched calls for for "MEDICATION!" LOL.
Bonham was attempting to write a SONG with drums as opposed to a DRUM SOLO. A strange track but a favorite.
Good way to put it. I wonder what the story is on why they named it that way.
@@stevedahlberg8680it was recorded in Montreaux Switzerland in 1976.
@@dustandroktwok1447 Also made famous by Deep Purple in Smoke on the water...And later on, Tori Amos had a killer 1992 sort of debut performance there. Zeppelin connection: She later made a duet with her girlhood crush Robert Plant, doing a nicely haunting version of Zep's "Down by the Seaside." Apparently Plant (somewhat jokingly?) asked her to marry him, but she (somewhat playfully?) refused, heh.
Gotta love watchin the drummer enjoy the drummer.
That made me happy 😊I have suggested this to channels but little ol' me, my voice gets lost among the masses in audiences.
Friends, there's one song missing from this album for you to react to, it's called: Baby, Come Home. It was only released on the remastered version of CODA in 1993. You like the band so much today that I'm sure you'll be curious to hear a song you've never heard from them hehe. Cheers!
thats how you make a drum skin sing ! you should check him doing moby dick live, at one point he is playing with the palms of his hands , slaps so hard it should come with a safe word .all my best to you and yours from Liverpool
There was only drums in this song - no Jones, nor Plant at all. Jimmy Page put a swooshing sound near the beginning of the song - just before tympani came in. There were timbales and Carribean steel drums in there too. The Caribbean steel drums is when you said "there's tones in there." John Bonham was a master musician ! ❤ This was recorded in Montreux, Switzerland in Sept of 1976.
Excellent reaction fellas! Appreciate you 🙏 ❤
the hammer of the gods just jamming
Hope you also do Travelling Riverside Blues❤
I know ppl will call me crazee but this is my favorite track on album. I was waiting for this reaction.
Since you both are such big Zep fans, you should check out the following songs. They sound just like Zeppelin especially the singers sound like Plant. Wait For You by Bonham, Babe I'm Gonna Leave You by Great White ( which is a Zep cover), and the band Kingdom Come. Sound just like Robert Plant!
the next track is 1 of my favourites, seriously they kill it!!!
And that's all a single foot on that bass drum
Bonham was & will always be the greatest drummer EVER!
Superman's new fight music
Moby Dick ! Perfect !
RIP Bonzo
There's a video of Moby Dick (sometimes called Over The Top)when he had those steel drums in his kit.
The very first beat struck by Bono has groove.
The "metallic" tones are: Jamaican steel drum (you know: the kind with the different, angled plates, which generate melodic as well as percussive information/tones.). 👍
(Some, passed through: EQ and effects.)
This album is very underrated
Hard to believe one human made all those sounds...Bonzo was a cheat code...
Nobody could play like Bonzo!
Hell Yes!!!
you can find drum only tracks from bonzo on yt....def worth a listen
You can tell where Danny Carey gets his inspiration in Chocolate Chip Trip
Ya'll got to check out a guy on youtube his channel is kick it like bonham does killer Zep covers on drums. Has them tuned like Johns even has a tuning tutorial.
I’ve been waiting for you guys to hit this since I started watching. ❤ You should jump into the “How the West was Won” Live Album released in 2003. Specifically 20 min version of Moby Dick from 1972 Live.
That was cool ❤
This song sounds like Bonzo's using Timpini or kettledrums & steel drums (carribean percussive sound).
Kettle drums hitting the metal part of the kettle drum
Ah. Finally.
Any Zep is good Zep!
The Goat
Geez more Zep !! much as I like them there are other great british bands.
🔥🔥🔥🥁🥁🥁
Zeppelin's mistakes are as good as some bands hits.
🙏 ❤ 🌹 John 🌹 ❤ 🙏
Waaay ahead of their time, this sounds like a Death Grips beat
Did you all ever react to Moby Dick live (MSG ‘73)?
CODA would have paid tribute to anyone of the four that had died at the time
What was it about his foot pedal work that made it sound so different than anybody?----------
are what my last words on Earth will be.
Probably.
He didnt have rock drummers to learn from. Thats hard to picture because we have heard the great rock drummers. They ddnt exist when he and Bonzo were doing this.(sans Ginger Baker)
Just jazz. So inventive has more weight than people realize.I can hear possible Joe Morello influence there.
Bonzo just made the rest of us look average at best. That’s a mic drop
Sounds like a steel drum in the background.
there are live versions of Johns drumming, you should watch his live Moby Dick vids.
Ja maan dim b kettle drums. Great bass line for a LA and Che rap a tap tap 🙏🍁
Just so you know that the first part of this Bonzo is playing with his hands and not drumsticks. He was a bad, bad man he didn't even need sticks to be this bada**.
You're hearing Tim Boley's Spell check Please It's a Hawaiian instrument It's like a kettledrum without the top
Steel drums making the tone!
🙃👍
Bonzo was a brick layer by trade folks.
This is outstanding, but I think Moby Dick is better. In large part because Jimmy and JPJ's intro is just so bangin' on MD.
Jimmy Page added the electronic tones. The rest is Bonzo.
Page played some drum parts too.
Those extra tones sound a little like steel drums
That’s a 26” kick
Could be a sample
Not his best work... still my favorite drummer ever, ever!
Not so much a drum solo as a drum experience.
Back in the Day CODA was a flop. But Jimmy Page remastered this 20 years ago or so And added a 2nd CD. Made it more commercially viable. Nothing on this record is moving. It’s average
CRAP. Just noise. Zeppelin was dead at this point.
Never cared for this.
React to Bruce Springsteen and the E Street band the song is kitty's back. The live version in 1975 London concert
