Classical Composer Reacts to LED ZEPPELIN: TEN YEARS GONE | The Daily Doug (Episode 629)

[@WhereIsPancakesHouse]

Ten Years Gone and The Rain Song are my two favorite Zep songs. Both such emotional, moving songs.

[@marcellodevico]

Totally agree

[@godsdog]

Agree, adding the incredible version of these two songs made by the Jason Bonham band

[@bryno2932]

Same for me. Can't decide which is #1..

[@sven_86]

i just love the way the rain song ends..... ten years gone as well. They end so perfectly. Zep just have such deep emotion in their songs that just stick with you for life.

[@afihaileywibowo1095]

So true, so true

[@JRussUT]

The older I get, the more I feel this just may be the ultimate Zeppelin masterpiece. A true labor of love.

[@NicholasHerriman]

I get that feeling too. When I was 15 it was all about about their heavy rock sound on the early albums. Now, in my 50's, I go for the more experimental sounds on the later albums.

[@markhill9275]

Even as a young man this reched deep into me, the wistfulness of it. Not your typical page solo, Jimmy was far more sparse in this, he really used the space to tell his story. Just absolutely majestic!

[@doctoronthego]

You ain't wrong...

[@BluesManPeich]

Houses of the Holy and very especially Physical Graffiti are my favourite albums. They really peaked with this one.

[@jmeakin4]

As stellar as most of Zeppelin's tunes were from the get-go, some just continue to grow on the listener more and more. 'Ten Years Gone' is one of those masterpieces; but the one that does that the most for me is 'Ramble On'.

They were all amazing and exceptionally talented. JPJ, Bonzo, Plant and the maestro Page. Jimmy was the creative driving force of the band. He was a guitarist, songwriter, composer, producer, music engineer, business manager etc. He did it all on his terms and was absolutely brilliant.

[@ThomasPappas-r3v]

This was the first Led Zeppelin song that I heard played on the guitar by my babysitter who was in a classic rock coffee band back in the late seventies. I got The Song Remains the same, the live album from Madison square Garden in 73 wbich was not released until 1977 when my aunt and uncle gave me for christmas. I was confused because at that point being only 5 years old I love the Beatles And I was starting to get into the stones (I walked out and started getting into them right when Mick Taylor, the greatest lead guitar player they ever played with was just leaving so all the records that I got were the records were Mick Taylor played Let It bleed Sticky fingers exile on Main Street it's only rock and roll goats head soup and get yet ya Yas out. He also was featured in a couple of solos on tattoo you with having to be some of the better solos on the record. All the songs at a rolling Stones concert that get the crowd the most excited are the songs featuring Nick Taylor and that's when Keith Richards first introduces everyone to open G tuning which is what made brown sugar county woman Moonlight Mile Can't You Hear Me Knocking Tumbling Dice rolling Stones songs sounded so bluesy yet with a Southern feel. These English cats played classic American rock and roll better than almost anyone in America could do it then England gave us cream, Jeff Beck Pink Floyd and finally Led Zeppelin I consider the absolute knights of the round table in rock and roll. They are just warriors and their talent is every that is great is it anything in music as far as composition is concerned whether it's great jazz, great classical, great R&B, great Bebop Jazz great jazz fusion. And let's not forget great country and bluegrass. Physical graffiti and presence, although I still love the early albums just as much, demonstrate a turning point where Led Zeppelin were almost a sort of progressive rock band that could still play with the kind of feel Great British blues rock. 10 years gone is definitely my favorite song that they've written, and physical graffiti is loaded with great tracks but presence has Achilles last stand and for your life. I think that album is particularly underrated and Paige wasn't quite such as drunk smackhead yet like he was on the last two records which is why they were so disappointing which include into the outdoor and coda. Into the outdoor has a couple tracks that are worthwhile but most are garbage because play Bruno Mars in the song which were all written by Jonn Paul Jones and plant. It's funny how page and Robert Plant were allowing the abuse to compromise their musical talent all while the most self-destructive member being John Bonham seemed to be perfectly capable right up until his tragic death. I mean drinking yourself to death at 30 years old or or v:32 or whatever it was early 30s is a pretty hard thing to do in such a short time. As a musician for the past 40 years and now at 52 I have seen many people Jason's house to death but most of them aren't close to that level until they're well into their mid-40s. It doesn't typically happen until the 50s or 60 s and I'm talking about guys drinking a couple of fifths per day. I suppose plants and Page being such a way that probably weighed about 130 or 140 lbs soaking wet make it much easier for them to always appear wasted which profoundly impacts their ability to be at their best. If you listen to Plants range between 77-80 it goes to being huge to more limited than most male singers. Page friends about 10 years as a hack guitar player playing with The Black crowes was the first time I saw him play live where he sounded as good as he did when he was when was Zeppelin the early to mid 70s.

[@awmerriam4]

This song and In The Light from Physical Graffiti, as well as, Achilles Last Stand and Tea For One, from their Presence Album in 1976. Absolutely incredibly composed, arranged, and emotionally executed with musicianship unequaled.

[@marlachristensen2076]

Personally, I could never grab on to their Presence Album. I purchased the album at the time, listened to it, though, there was nothing there that grabbed me. I can agree with you on the track "In The Light". Fabulous!

[@lafelong]

@@marlachristensen2076 I think a lot of people felt that way about Presence when it came out... but I really dug it - and still do. I think overall it's underrated. Lots of good stuff on it - Achilles, Nobody's Fault, as well as all of the rest of the lesser known hidden gems like the criminally under heard/under appreciated Tea for One, as @awmerriam4 mentioned. Unpopular opinion: I actually prefer Presence to "In Through the Out Door" even though ITtOD was more commercially successful (a bit too much synth for me. lol). EDIT: Also, though not released until the 2015 Deluxe Edition of Presence, "10 Ribs & All/Carrot Pod Pod (Pod)" is just gorgeous: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGKmf3WcbdmMask

@lafelong I agree. Presence, in my humble opinion, is a better album than In Through the Out Door.

[@marlachristensen2076]

@@lafelong oo. I forgot about 'In Through the Out Door'. Er, not my cup of tea either. Though what I do like at what you are saying here is that you really hold tight to your way of listening to Led Zeppelin. This is very important. My tastes do not (always) surpass others' tastes. And, really, there is so much out there for everyone! I reiterate, it is very important for people to hold tight to music as they hear it through their ears. Everyone's life experiences are so different and the way any piece of music grabs onto you at whatever time it happens to be, hang onto it. It is something that will never go away.

This is one of my favorite Zeppelin songs. It shows how important every band member was and how sublime they could be. Jimmy's beautiful guitar layering, Plant's ethereal voice and lyrics, John Paul Jones' little flourishes and Bonham somehow making his drum playing sound sad.

[@robertk7484]

There are only so many perfect songs. 'Ten Years Gone' is absolutely one of them. This song could not exist were it not for these four gifted musicians. There is so much in this song from Bonzo's incredible driving drums (the subtle caveman - so immediately recognisable), the amazing performance from Jones who makes the bass into a lyrical element as much as it's the extension of the melody and forms core of the song, the stinging vocals from Plant with an audible sense of loss and longing, and the many layers of guitar textures from Page that seal this song as truly perfect. Hearing this song gives me chills to this very day as it did when I first heard it nearly 50 years ago. This entire album is a masterpiece (and another truly perfect song, 'Kashmir' that really came into its own on the "No Quarter" album). Featuring the entire "Physical Graffiti" album ( would easily be 4-episodes ) would be an awesome experience for your viewers and Doug at the same time.

[@jamescarter3130]

It's songs like this, and The Rain Song, Kashmir, Achilles Last Stand, and Stairway that put Jimmy Page in a category as one of the all time great composers.

[@itsmedrooms6071]

Jimmy referred to it as a guitar army. Carlos Santana once said that Page was the Stravinsky of the electric guitar and I take that as a reference to his orchestral use of the guitar in layered tracks. Although this is an extreme example of that, the layered guitars can be found throughout their entire discography. It’s part of what set them apart from a lot of their contemporaries because no one, not even today, composed and layered guitar tracks quite like Page did. Stick that together with 3 other powerhouse innovators and you had an unstoppable force that was head and shoulders above anyone else.

[@BTW...]

[@itsmedrooms6071]

@@BTW... One modern contemporary artist I still like is Grimes who isn’t active anymore apparently. I guess the genre is electronica. Her layering techniques on the album Art Angels are insane. Back then she didn’t work with any producers and did it all herself, all instruments, composition, and arrangement of multiple layered tracks. What she did was genius level imo.

No. Plant said the song was about his first love who rejected him before he hit it big because she wanted a man who had a regular job. PLANT: Let me tell you a little story behind the song '"Ten Years Gone" on our new album. I was working my ass off before joining Zeppelin. A lady I really dearly loved said, "Right. It's me or your fans." Not that I had fans, but I said, "I can't stop, I've got to keep going." She's quite content these days, I imagine.She's got a washing machine that works by itself and a little sportscar. We wouldn't have anything to say anymore. I could probably relate to her, but she couldn't relate to me. I'd be smiling too much. Ten years gone, I'm afraid. Anyway, there's a gamble for you.

Led Zeppelin was more than just rock’n roll. You hit it in the nail…Page orchestrated guitar parts in the studio. And John Paul Jones followed w his bass or keyboards. And the drums, what can we say about John Bonham - he reminds me of Ringo Starr in the sense that both of these men added more than just rhythm to a song. They had an instinct to create sounds with the drums that went along with the creation of the overall vibe that was being created in a particular composition. Sadly, you don’t hear that anymore out of groups or solo artists.
