Sandy Denny explained to me why certain parts of The Battle Of Evermore have sounded extra great to me. I have always admired her singing and her voice. It was unique. Big thanks for this info.
"The Battle Of Evermore" , an incredible tune by Led Zeppelin would not have had the same sound or allure it created without the stunningly beautiful voice of Sandy Denny. Page and Plant hit the home run with her being on the track.

James Patrick Page + Robert Antony Plant + John Richard Baldwin + John Henry Bonham, the juggernaut of Valhalla, best band EVER. Greetings from Danmark 🤜 🇩🇰 🤛
Led Zeppelin III was the first that really took to me - from Immigrant Song to Bron.yr Aur, Tangerine. To my mind only topped by Physical Graffiti and The Song Remains ...
In high school I drummed in a rock band, playing top 40 hits like Gloria and Crimson and Clover. My guitarist called me one day and said “get over here now, you HAVE to hear this band! “ I have spent the past 50 years working to master every Bonham beat and riff.
Took me 50 years to decide so it's not a rash judgment, but I think Led Zeppelin is the greatest. Any band that can come up with Stairway to Heaven has to be.
The most hidden fact is recordings of Robert Plant's original vocal style. You'll never hear it. First record I ever bought was the Guess Who. I confused them with what I really wanted; The Who. Then I got the Rod Stewart album with Maggie May. Then Led Zep 3. In 1973 I began college as a Music major. So I was loaded with rock and pop music, but everyone wanted me to teach them Stairway to Heaven. But personally it was Page's acoustic playing that most impressed me. I did drop Zepplin by the time Queen came out and never bought any of the Satan symbolism BS.
Elvis connections were very interesting! 1) That's not Robert's voice at the very end of "The Crunge." Stark difference in vocal tamber. I'm guessing Jones or Page? 2) Rolling Stones may have grossed as much, if not more, in the span of their career than Led Zep. 3) Next time maybe include Plant's Tolkien LOR references in "Ramble On?" 4) Maybe link references in Spinal Tap film with a road manager who always goes around with a bat? Grant was a menacing bull dog and his intimidation helped get the band up to the front of lines.
Yes, "Hammer of the Gods" was an informative book. Page wanted Bonham and held out while others had tried to convince Page to use a more-willing drummer.
Yes, you are right, the album Houses of The Holy was released in March. But what you are referring to in the clip, was when D'yer Mak'er was recorded at Stargroves Studio, but released as a single in September.
Has anyone else besides me thought that "Houses of the Holy" cover uses physical graffiti and "Physical Graffiti" cover features a house of the holy???
Oh, and you need to read "Hammer of the Gods" book to fact-check stuff and fill in some blanks. Plant was really young - hence Entwhistle saying "...go over like a Lead Zeppelin." Bonham resisted joining - he didn't come with Plant. Plant and Page shared an affinity for old blues records.
@@JoshMaxPower According to the book "Hammer of the Gods," Entwhistle made that comment. Since we the truth doesn't seem known, no one should publishing a video that claims one over then ther then
I could've wrote this. lol. Saw them every time they played the Garden, starting with the their first time at the matinee show, twice when they did a multiple night, as well as the Nassau Coliseum, for a total of 8 times iirc. You're the first I saw mentioning of the stage collapse at one show. i was there as well. There was another MSG show where an M80 exploded near Page. He shook his hand like he got hit with piece They did real short one song encore. Plant looked real pissed walking off

They improvised all over the place, turned a 4-minute song into a 12-minute song, and a lot of what Page was playing he didn't even know he was going to play until the moment he played it.
