Sails of charon - Scorpions

[@inspectorvol951]

Gallows Pole, Battle of Evermore or the Kennedy Center Honors performance of Stairway to Heaven by Heart with the 3 surviving members of Zeppelin in the audience and John Bonham's son playing drums. Best cover ever. Jimmy Page nearly jumped out of seat he was so excited and Robert Plant was moved to tears by the moment.

This is without a doubt the most musically challenging song in their repertoire, though almost every other recording is just as 'good' if not as complex.

[@EazyMoney099]

In the top 5 for sure!

[@ricocarrillo1945]

My opinion: the best song in rock history. The intensity, the rhythm, the lyrics, bass, drums, lead guitar. It is all at a fever pitch throughout the song. What a masterpiece. A symphony of greatness.

[@ThailandTed]

No Quarter is another hidden gem. JPJ is magical.

[@jp1170]

Oh man if theres any song you guys should do it is absolutely the 1973 live version of “No Quarter”. Absolute masterpiece

Right on Bonham. When band started he was 19-20, and his drumming grew exponentially as he matured. Simply the best drummer ever.

[@drcorsetti]

The most underrated Zeppelin song in the entire catalog.

That drum fill at 3:38 is one of the all time great ones imo, so simple but so incredible

[@rithulshelan]

It's like a drummer sprint.

[@jeremybrooks7415]

JPJ to me is the heart of the band, and this song really showcases it. He always steps back for the light to shine on Robert, Bonzo or Jimmy, but he's the one in back holding everything down.

[@paulschoenfeld61]

These four in other bands. Can't imagine

[@deedeekreep9139]

To think he was just a session musician at first.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

This is Zep doing prog rock. Plant has said that in his opinion the musicianship of Page, JPJ and Bonham in this piece is the best in rock. It was a challenge for him to find the lyrics to fit such a complex and huge composition I think he succeeded though, yes? He wrote them while recovering from a terrible car accident and was in a wheelchair when it was recorded

[@larrynapier5003]

Difficulty in covering this track you best have the guitar skills to play with Emotions ! I met Jimmy it blew my mind

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

Larry Napier you are a lucky dude! This is actually Helene, not my husband at left. I say that that because otherwise my next remark wouldn’t make any sense. My maiden name was Napier. Not that common in the States. Family from Scotland. Perhaps we’re veeeery distantly related...going back a couple hundred years.😉

[@alittlelooney5361]

Oh, he succeeded alright.

[@rdm4509]

This is not prog rock. It's so much more than that.

[@greggpangle3821]

When they recorded this, they recorded the basic track with Page only playing the rhythm track, and the rest of the band thought Page was a little nuts and didn't have much faith in the song. Page stayed in the studio overnight and recorded all the overdubbed guitar tracks and solos. When Plant, Jones, and Bonham heard the final product, they were astonished. Page really is an absolute Master and Genius. I put him up there with Beethoven, Mozart, and all the other great composers.

[@DC-ih8bv]

Gregg Pangle without a doubt.

[@AleisterCrowley.]

I agree, I think he's in that bracket. If you can find albert hall 1970 when he goes away from robert in Dazed and does that insanity with the bow,( for some reason harder and harder to find these days on youtube) that is pure musical Genius, not to mention his ability to use Music as the conduit of the message. When you feel that power, perceptible under certain circumstances, expressed with deliberation through music, you know you are dealing with something not of the mundane. The How and the Why is not a concept our tiny minds are able to contend with, some may say deliberately so, all we can do is say the man is the man is a Genius, and I agree.

[@Gerard_2024]

Very interesting. Where did you read / hear that stuff about the rhythm track ? I´m not doubting you, just never heard it before.

[@jpkillibrew1638]

Nope , they don’t and him and bonham give Zep their rhythm

[@jamessomers8808]

[@TheMichaelseymour]

[@metalmike570]

As a bassist I'd say it's always that way with bassists, but JPJ is one of the most dynamic bassists, a great writer plays the tunes the way they should be never over-doing it note wise. On this song he's very precise and I notice he plays with a pick a lot but not always - sometimes he uses fingerstyle.

[@micahjared8082]

as a B player - JPJ is my HERO. no contest. next is cliff burton. Flea and Verdine White (earth wind fire)

[@thomasbianchino3116]

Bonzo is next level on this track... in fact, they all are. Robert was injured in a serious car crash and actually recorded this album in a wheelchair. You need to get to the last studio album In Through the Out Door, and check out the epic Carouselambra as well as Bonzo's masterful drum skills on Fool In the Rain. Some of his tastiest drum work, IMO.

[@susanmaggiora4800]

Thomas Bianchino that’s a great album. A lot of reactors never do any songs from it.

[@neillenet291]

John Bonham is giving a master class on drums in this song. Dude is putting in work from start to finish. It should also be noted that Robert Plant recorded his vocals for this album from a wheel chair due to a car accident he suffered in Greece prior to recording the album.

I bought the first 6 albums. Then I got this album and I was in shock. This tune is so rich with sounds coming from all four corners of the band. Led Zeppelin heavy metal. John Paul Jones crunching the E String on his bass. Jimmy Page's most phenomenal guitar solo. This song is underrated big time

[@cardscubesandcars6587]

Finally, someone reacted to this song thank you. In my opinion, as a musical experience for the listener and the actual musicianship happening, this is some of Zep at its finest. These guys nailed it. The rest of the album is worth a listen too, if you like, can get really funky at times.

Bonham’s drumming on this track is insane. I can’t work out the main time signature (8/4, maybe?), but there are several. And he just slips back and forth between them as if it’s easy. It’s not.

[@chaospoet]

Getting my comment in before KZbin notices this video. This is my favorite Zeppelin song. I used to play drums back in the day and my drum teacher played this for me and said he wanted me to learn to play it. I looked at his kit that only had ONE bass drum and pedal. I was convinced this was done with a double bass. My teacher informed me it was done with one foot on one bass drum with one pedal. This ended up becoming my all time favorite groove to play and truly made me appreciate fancy foot work in non-double bass drum songs because it's harder than it looks and you basically have to train your brain and foot to be on autopilot or else it ain't happening.

Hey man fantastic response to Achilles last stand! Yeah bonhams drumming always had me captivated on this track. It's always good to see young people getting in to led zeppelin, but when it's someone who listens deeper, who understands music then that takes it to another level.
