They certainly were diverse, but let's not get carried away. :) Have you listened to King Crimson's first album lately? Then keep going. I'm not saying this in a spirit of competition, music isn't about that for me - rather one of inclusiveness I could name many bands and artists.
I was there at Earls Court in 1975, I’m 71 but still have the programme and a scarf. Great song and a very enjoyable channel seeing your enjoyment of classic older tracks.
Wow! That was a punch in the gut! Took me right back to '71...guess that's the last time I heard it. It was beautiful and sad back then, and it's still beautiful and sad now, a half century later.
I always loved the acoustic set in their shows. I saw them 2x in '75 and '77 respectively. The acoustic set gave John Bonham a break and showed their versatility. Thank you for helping me relive my youth. Be well.
Your reaction to this is amazing. This is my favorite Zep song hands down and it’s great that others have such a great feeling of it as well. It’s beautiful. Enjoy.
It was made originally during the Led Zep 3 album sessions in 1970 ..That was a blend of genres that made it their standard from that point and they just kept rising from it..
From this same show another fantastic acoustic they do is "Led Zeppelin - Bron-Y-Aur Stomp (Live at Earls Court 1975)". It's a song about Roberts dog, Strider.
Always love your reactions. Genuine, warm, erudite. Worth you checking out “The Battle of Evermore” if you enjoy chilled Zeppelin. Agree that Plant’s vocals are so beautiful when crystal clear & soaring above the music. Keep the great reactions coming & stay safe over there.
I was also there. May 1975. I was just turned 21 and this was the third time If seen them live. They brought a full scale USA stadium show set up into Earls Court, but this song made you feel like you were in a small folk club or bar. Beautiful.
I believe the lyrics had to do with a friend of his that “lived in the darker side of town” that his mother didn’t want him playing with anymore. There’s a sad beauty to it that only Zeppelin can do.
The acoustic numbers were important to LZ as sometimes they would freestyle so much a concert could last up to 4 hours and these numbers allowed them to sit down and have a rest.
I love this song and have since the first time I heard it. I was thirteen years old and felt so much from these words, and the music made me feel so much. Thank you both for sharing. That's what we all did back then,only thing is we had to call each other and ride our bike later our cars,over to the others house and put on our friends new album. A lifetime of friends has shared music with me. You all are part of that sharing of beautiful music from then.❤😎
Great reaction, glad to see you two keyed in on Jonn Paul Jones mesmerizing all of us with his mandolin! Probably one of the most underrated Musicians of his time. The band would not have sounded the same without him adding his poignant flavor to the Led Zeppelin recipe….😉🫡
Almost my favorite led song. Better on BBC 1971. Original title was "The Boy Next Door". Heard it yesterday on LedZepBoots channel from May 1970 on our way back from Nashvegas.
They have so many great songs, it’s hard to pick favorites. Like so many say, your favorite is whatever song you’re listening to. They just bring the best to every song they do, their 3rd album wasn’t received to well because of the acoustics, but they are beautiful too. Find songs you haven’t heard, & check them out too, you can’t go wrong. I only have 2 song I don’t care for, but you may love them, we all have different favorites. Thank you for your reaction, as always.
This song was used to great effect in the film,Almost Famous. Led Zeppelin doesn't license their music to TV and films that much but when they do it is a special moment. The film is based on director Cameron Crowe's early days as a music reporter. Scene from the film featuring Zepoelin: ruclips.net/video/9tq_-4h_Tjg/видео.htmlsi=eSTYT-QZ140F5NSG
@@lyndoncmp5751 Can't agree with you. Most live acoustic Zep songs don't match the studio recordings IMO. I will say that most live Zep electric performances are a must, as well as the studio versions.
Robert had a dog named stryder and after it passed they wrote a song about him. It's called Brian Yar Stomp. Similar to this a little faster You have very good reactions
Please react to the 2008 Wembley concert of the band Foo Fighters, when they brought both Jimi Page and John Paul Jones up on stage to play 2 Led Zeppelin songs with them. Rock and Roll, and Ramble on. SOOO good! You two will be amazed .
This song is actually about a childhood friend that is a boy (They change stuff all the time). The friend was going down the wrong path (long hair, drugs, etc.) according his mother. So she told him break off the friendship, he says that he doesn't think so.
Y’all gotta listen to Bron-Y-Aur Stomp from this same performance. What an acoustic performance from Jimmy Page! The song is written for Robert Plant’s dog, Stryder!
You should check out Robert Plant and Alison Krause, 'Gone Gone Gone' or 'Please Read The Letter'. So you get to see how great Robert still is. These 2 songs are from 2008 Album of the year, Raising Sand. Love your Led Zeppelin reactions. Thanks.
Oh yah that's such a bittersweet keltic-folk based tune. Also gave Bonzo time to get off the drum kit, catch his breath and get a smoke and rehydrate :) If you like that folksy sound, there is another one called "Bron-y-aur Stomp" styled after 19th-century factory workers songs. The workers would sing to pass the time while running the machines with their hands and keep the beat by literally stomping their feet on the wooden floors. I thiink that's the track where Zep recorded it in an old stone country manor and used the stairwells and hallways to give it echoing acoustics. Gotta love that simple, old time folksy feel. One of the other "folk" music styles they explored was reggae, and they were supportive of the genre emerging in the 1970's. Their "Dyer'maker" (pronounced like "Jamaica" -- it's a bad pun in brittish slang) and "Fool in the Rain" both play off those rhythms and tones typical of Carribean sounds. You have to get "Dyer'maker" off the studio track, because John Paul Jones wouldn't do it live -- not because it sounded bad, but he thought it was too gimmicky or undignified of a song idea for concerts. It's fun to listen to, though. "Fool in the Rain" also has a humorous side, but it's a cool different mix of sounds with a swoopy groove that you don't hear in many rock songs.
Thanks! thank ya'll for listening to Neil Young...a new, and deep rabbit hole - I already suggested some of his songs...so did others in comments...I would request, when you have time, to react to "Trampled Under Foot"; both studio (Physical Graffiti is the album) and live (the 75 Earls Court show )...it's up there with Kashmir, in My Time of Dying...etc., but the improvisation in the live version of this song from that album is out of this world-they weave sections from other songs into this one live masterpiece...hope you both r well and can't thank ya'll enough
That’s a mandolin I think you’re try to explain. It has a very folky sound which this song deserves. Same line up of instruments as Going to California.
John Paul Jones playing the mandolin with his hands and bass pedals with his feet.
He was so awesome and deserved a lot more credit than he got. He is magnificent on this track.

Zeppelin the most diversified band in the HISTORY of music. LZ FOREVER!!!🥁☮☘
They certainly were diverse, but let's not get carried away. :)
Have you listened to King Crimson's first album lately?
Then keep going.
I'm not saying this in a spirit of competition, music isn't about that for me - rather one of inclusiveness
I could name many bands and artists.
@@alfonslemel5745 Beatles
The greatest rock band of all time
Wow JPJ killing the mandolin and bass pedals at the same time!
And probably any other instrument he chose to play.
@@musicairplanes4884 As always...their secret weapon. And rarely gets much mention. T
As I call JPJ The Silent Assasin. Always behind the scenes but always kills it.
Love your Led Zeppelin reactions, Their studio version of "Nobody's Fault but Mine" is another of their killer songs.
The live version from Celebration Day is good too
No other band in history ever displayed such intimacy. The folk set at Earls Court was crucial to the success of each concert. Simply peerless!😂😂😂
It's so enjoyable watching the reactions of younger people getting into Zeppelin!
I was there at Earls Court in 1975, I’m 71 but still have the programme and a scarf. Great song and a very enjoyable channel seeing your enjoyment of classic older tracks.
Lucky! 👍
I have over 100 plus Zep shows and I think that run at Earls Court was at their peak.
This is acoustic music at its best. The mandolin was special. The mood is almost indescribable.
Wow! That was a punch in the gut! Took me right back to '71...guess that's the last time I heard it. It was beautiful and sad back then, and it's still beautiful and sad now, a half century later.

I was there watching this concert
That’s one helluva show! In My Time of Dying might be my favorite from this performance.
Such a great underrrated song.
Studio version of That's The Way is my absolute favorite by them. This is a very different yet really awesome version as well.
Back when bands actually played their own instruments ❤
LOVE your Led Zeppelin reviews, thank you !!
Your reaction to this is amazing. This is my favorite Zep song hands down and it’s great that others have such a great feeling of it as well. It’s beautiful. Enjoy.
Just a beautiful song!
I used to love this song when I was a kid on Zeppelin 3. I never heard it live. Thank you so much.
1975 was an extraordinary year for music.
70-75
Such a beautiful song I could weep.
Never duplicated. The GOATs!!!
Her reaction to Robert is the best!! lol
Freinds , Tangerine , Gallows Pole from Zeppelin 3 . Shoot the whole album .
It was made originally during the Led Zep 3 album sessions in 1970 ..That was a blend of genres that made it their standard from that point and they just kept rising from it..
From this same show another fantastic acoustic they do is "Led Zeppelin - Bron-Y-Aur Stomp (Live at Earls Court 1975)". It's a song about Roberts dog, Strider.
Now you MUST do Bron Yr Stomp from the same concert!!!
Carols mind is working overtime again. ❤
Who else can do an acoustic set like that? Nobody! There is another one in this set... Bron yr Stomp!
JPJ is a musical genius

A song about prejudice of many different varieties. Light and shade - Zep was all about dynamics.
That’s what I always got from it too, & that’s one thing these guys aren’t is prejudice.
If you like that then you need to check out “going to California” and “bron-y_aur stomp” from the same acoustic set. Amazing songs
They have a reaction video uploaded of Going To California. It’s awesome.
@@OutOnTheTiles I’ve probably actually watched it, my memory is shocking!

EU NÃO CONSIGO NEM FALAR. É LINDO DEMAIS. IMPRESSIONANTE E QUE TURMA ERA ESSA BANDA. SÓ UM MORRENDO MESMO PRA ESSA FAMÍLIA ACABAR.
Another great story from LZ and another great reaction from Carol.
Thanks …I needed that ✌️
They could do anything they wanted and they did.

The let Bonham take a break too, like they do during Bonham’s Moby Dick 20 minute solo.
John Paul Jones: the bass master on the mandoline AND bass pedals.
Awesome song! Awesome reaction!

She is one of the reasons we watch! Amazing eyes! Love that they love the greatest rock band in the world.
Love me some acoustic 'Zep' !!
I was eighteen at this 'Earls Court " concert!
But I was so wasted that I don't remember a note, my loss!!...
Thank you CC! I forgot about this song. Just love them acoustically. They always I guess to me seem more mysterious. Go CC!
Led - Heavy & Dense; Zeppelin - Lighter than air
Great review. Maybe you should review 'The Girl I Love She Got Long Black Wavy Hair' from Led Zeppelin BBC sessions 😉
Great deep cut from them....
While the camera was focused on Jimmy page, John Paul Jones was doing the heavy lifting.
Great reaction, glad to see you two keyed in on Jonn Paul Jones mesmerizing all of us with his mandolin! Probably one of the most underrated Musicians of his time. The band would not have sounded the same without him adding his poignant flavor to the Led Zeppelin recipe….😉🫡
First saw them live in May of 1969. Fan for life.
Think somebody has a crush on Plant!😊
I was just going to say the same thing, but then the majority of us women did/do, he’s still sexy as hell just older now.
You beat me to it. I know swooning when I see it.
Everyone ❤❤❤❤
There are two celebrities that make my wife get all flustered. Robert Plant and Sean Connery. Baby Boomer heat.
@@davidboivin7996who’s your 2 celebrity crushes? I’m sure you and the wife both know. Seems yall are honest and trustworthy with each other.
Almost my favorite led song. Better on BBC 1971.
Original title was "The Boy Next Door".
Heard it yesterday on LedZepBoots channel from May 1970 on our way back from Nashvegas.
I also love Going To California on the '71 BBC Sessions too. Better than the studio versions.
Hey my Faves. Good to see you. I like this song so much I play it at my shows. More please. Thank you
You have to do a reaction to the MSG 73 live version of Song Remains the Same/Rain Song. 2 songs back to back. It's incredibly awesome.

Greatest Band Ever! Bar none
The studio version’s lyrics, Plant sings, “ My friend, the boy next door.”
Not sure why he changed "all your ears" to "half"?
WOW!...just WOW!

Brian Yar Stomp.

Lovely reaction! Perhaps try Bron-Y-Aur Stomp from the same concert? It is a really nice, fun song about Robert's dog (Strider).
If you listen to “All of my Love” it’s about the sad loss of Robert’s son. Real tear jerker for Carol
I enjoy your reactions to "Led Zeppelin". You should try the 70s band "Free". Maybe start with "All Right Now".
This song is actually about a childhood friend that is a boy (They change stuff all the time). The friend was going down the wrong path (long hair, drugs, etc.) according his mother. So she told him break off the friendship, he says that he doesn't think so.
John Paul Jones also playing base guitar with his feet...he is the octupus
Lovely song
I've still got the ticket (£1.35) and program from this gig.
You're thinking that small guitar I think is Amanda Lynn set alarm sit there I think this is when they also did the song going to California
I think you would enjoy the band, The Doors - LIGHT MY FIRE.
There's plenty more❤
Yah, GOAT Rock/Blues band. Like Plants` voice such a WIDE range of music. Most songs are relationship
songs. Not always a happy ending.
