At least he threw in the possibility of harmonica. Has anyone else born say, around the 60s or so, noticed how younger folks don't know what a harmonica sounds like? I have seen so many younger people not knowing. They are all like what is that? Is that a guitar? Is that a piano? And so few realize that Led Zep (and Queen) are both bands of ONLY 4 PEOPLE, making this music. So it is nice that this guy guessed harmonica.

"When the Levee Breaks" is a country blues song written and first recorded by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie in 1929. If it keeps on rainin' levee's goin' to break If it keeps on rainin' levee's goin' to break And the water gonnna come in and we'll have no place to stay Well all last night I sat on the levee and moan Well all last night I sat on the levee and moan Thinkin' 'bout my baby and my happy home If it keeps on rainin' levee's goin' to break If it keeps on rainin' levee's goin' to break And all these people will have no place to stay Now look here mama what am I to do? Now look here mama what am I, I to do? I ain't got nobody to tell my troubles to I worked on the levee mama both night and day I worked on the levee mama both night and day I ain't got nobody to keep the water away Oh cryin' won't help you prayin' won't do no good Oh cryin' won't help you prayin' won't do no good Whenever the levee breaks mom you got to lose I worked on the levee mama both night and day I worked on the levee mama both night and day I worked so hard to keep the water away I had a woman, she wouldn't do for me I had a woman, she wouldn't do for me I'm going back to my used to be Oh mean old levee taught me to weep and moan Yeah the mean old levee taught me to weep and moan Told me leave my baby and my happy home.

The whole band's chemistry is why they are legendary, but Bonham was as influential as any drummer of the era. Even though people liked to call him "heavy" - which is understandable - he was exceptionally aware of how to make a beat swing. He studied the jazz greats before him, knew how to tune his drums for the best tone, and had an amazing touch. My fave for a reason.

Another good review! I agree the Drums propel this song and are hypnotic, powerful and create a massive groove! It’s in the Blues vein but more powerful! And you’re right, the Harmonica is wailing like it’s crying out loud! It’s about losing everything when the Levee Breaks because he lives by the flood lines. Plenty of poor Third World people go through this every day around the World 🌎. They live in shacks close to the water and when the Weather turns on them, they get wiped out! Even killed. Sad but true! There’s nothing that can be done. It’s the horrible price of poverty that people pay with their lives. That’s what created the Blues as a music 🎶 form. People singing about their pain and troubles. And that’s why it’s so moving. And Plant mentions Chicago because it sounds good and Chicago is the Home of the Blues! The song is so hypnotic! After I hear it, it usually plays on in my head for hours like an Earworm.

What a wonderful review. To watch someone who has never heard Zeppelin and are a bigger fan of a different genre of music discover how incredible they are, gives me joy. Yes that is an actual Harmonica, brilliantly played by Robert Plant (the lead vocal). As far as the power of the drumming, the majority of drummers could only dream of reaching the level of Bonham and I think most lovers of Rock would agree. I've been listening to this song for decades and the musicianship has always taken my minds eye to an old "Big Boy" steam locomotive slowly pulling away from that station and slowly picking up speed, slowing down around the curves and picking up speed........ with John Bonham being the engineer. Like you, I tend to get lost in the musicianship of this song and forget there are even lyrics. One thing for certain, when listening to this, I never fail to be sitting on that train and absolutely loving the ride!!! To allow someone to be taken out of their own head, through music, is a powerful gift!!

I so much enjoy watching a new timer to Led Zeppelin as they listen to songs for the first time. I have been a Led Zeppelin fan for over 50yrs. I have ever song and album that they ever made. Most peoplel say that Stairway to Heaven is their greatest song. No Way. To me, its "Ten years Gone" and/or Thats the way, or even Thank you. Those are my favorites, but don't get me wrong. I love ALL of Led Zeps songs. One of your other comments says, Every zep song is your favorite, until the next song. lol There has been and never will be another band as great as Led Zeppelin. Do all their songs, but make sure you do Ten years Gone. To me, their greatest piece of work. Whatever you do, don't let this be the only song you do. John Bonham was the greatest drummer ever. So great that when he died in 1980 the band disbanded, because they knew they would never find a replacement. For one thing. Drummers follow the bass player in most all bands, but, John Bonham followed Jimmy Page, the guitarilst. And that was one of the many diferences in this band. He as fired from many bands because everyone said he was to Loud. Their Loss.

That transition that bonzo did from the end of the bridge back into the next verse was crazy. So seamless too.

I saw Led Zeppelin twice in concert - once in 1969 and once in 1970. They are electrifying in person. The sound in this song is from a harmonica.

To get a true appreciation to the great Led Zepplin, please react to "The immigrant Song" and" Kashmir live at Knebworth" Zepplin is absolutely the best band on the planet. I don't think you will find any two songs that sound alike. They were a very diverse and talented group. A band of brothers! All members were the best of their craft. Rest in peace to the late great John Henry Bonham. Gone but never forgotten.

John Bonham’s drums were recorded in at the bottom of a three-story stairwell. That was Robert Plant, vocalist playing harmonica. I LOVE watching your reaction to the soundtrack of my life.

You can tell this is the studio version of this song because the singer (Robert Plant) also plays the harmonica and in some parts of the song he's impossibly doing both at the same time.

This song was written in 1929 about the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, and LZ recorded it in 1971. Robert Plant is still touring in summer 2024.

I saw them at Knebworth in 1979 too but unfortunately they were well past their best by then. Knebworth is noted for not being their best live performances

Led Zeppelin is in my top 5 favorite bands along with Sabbath, CCR, Lynyrd Skynyrd & Chicago. This is my favorite Zeppelin song, a remake of Kansas Joe song from the late 20’s. Saw them in 1975 and crowd went crazy when John started. You knew the song from his first beat.

"turn it up" is what we all said the first time we heard this. That's the incomparable John "Bonzo" Bonham on the drums and Robert Plant on the harmonica at the start...he is also the lead singer. And yep, his voice is second to none. Jimmy Page on guitar and John Paul Jones on bass guitar. They are all masters of their craft. Try "Whole Lotta Love" next. You'll get a great sample of Jimmy Page's guitar work. By the way, there are no bad Zep song.
