Drum Teacher Reacts: JOHN BONHAM | Led Zeppelin - 'As Long As I Have You' Live -1969 (2021 Reaction)

[@daveherman6647]

Led Zeppelin; the Ultimate gift from the Universe; I am so grateful that I hear them everyday lol

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Yes Dave! 🙌

[@jeffpolley3896]

One infamous bootlegger was California’s own Mike the MIC Millard. He would enter concerts in a wheelchair sitting on his Nakamichi 550 tape deck. Then when the lights would go down he would go to the eighth row and with two mics in his hat would record some of the greatest bootlegs of the 70’s and 80’s.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

WOW! Thank you for the info

[@susanpalmer8931]

Ingenious!!. LZ fans are nothing but determined.

[@gavinpaterson1853]

I have been Enjoying all Mike's recordings as of late. I'm a taper myself. Infact I use the same mics he used back then. RIP Mike "the Mike"

[@johnr.8275]

Dan Lampinski was a taper in the Northeast who made a lot of quality recordings that are near-Millard quality in the '70's. His recording of Pink Floyd from the cavernous, acoustically-challenged barn otherwise known as the old Boston Garden from 1977 is absolutely incredible. Millard was amazing, though.

[@libertineish]

The knowledge of the blues and the confidence of a band less than 12 months together and barely 22 years old is mind-blowing...LED ZEPPELIN HAS SOUL..Always a spiritual journey 😊

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Yes all 4 of them absolute monsters Luke!

[@libertineish]

Bonzo after a few jars was the biggest monster of all 😉 God rest his soul..Btw I was in Auckland in 2008 and saw a sign for Birkenhead on my way to Rangatoto..That tranquil Birkenhead is much nicer than the rough and raw bleak docks opposite across the river from Liverpool hehe...Just a thought, noticed the great 60s- 90s rock pop music comes from the tough dock/industrialized places,like Liverpool,Glasgow,Manchester,Birmingham,Belfast,London,Newcastle,Sheffield,here in UK anyway ...Seems like the grimier and tougher the future looked the more intense and obsession to guitar bands arose...Keep up the great videos.. 😊

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

@@libertineish I lived in Birkenhead for a few years. Small world :)

[@PeterTea]

😂 It’s like ten songs in one. Now that’s what I call a musical medley!

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

I had no idea when to stop... LOL

[@integraleric]

In '84 and '85, a friend of mine had a book that described every Led Zeppelin bootleg recording ever published. We used to spend hours combing through that book wishing we could get our hands on some of those bootlegs. Who knew that 30 to 40 years later we'd be able find any of these bootlegs on KZbin for free?

[@bonhzeppelin55]

When Pagey plays that droning guitar chord the only tune that got in my head was by the band Queen: dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun, "FLASH AH AHHH!" LOL!

[@chilliwhiggerE]

I believe this was recorded with a reel-to-reel tape recorder off of the mixing board.

[@finessemuse2123]

I love it! Bootleg live Led Zep, where the hidden gems are! They were all about improv and extending jams on the fly. BTW, I think you forgot my reaction request, Four Sticks, which was blocked. Didn't hear you mention that Andy. Perhaps it got unblocked?

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

I forgot that one! In the patreon list!

[@susanpalmer8931]

Thanks Andrew for reacting to this. It made you smile so that is good. I know the audio was a little muddy - but as far as audience bootlegs go it is pretty good, I think. Someone worked on it to make it better. It is ART - performance art really!! and you're right - while certain sections of the song are pretty much the same from night to night with the Garnet Mimms song weaving in and out and some of the same covers from night to night (although they did vary the numbers that stuck in) - it is overall just a improv. Never the same twice. Unique to that performance. And this kind of format - sticking in covers of other songs - is something they would expand on over the years - in the improv sections of Dazed and Confused - Whole Lotta Love - Heartbreaker - How Many More Times. I think it what makes listening to the bootlegs and filmed live performances so wonderful. The intuition and trust and musicianship amongst them to pull it off!! And what makes them great. Thanks again for a great reaction.

[@jason1888]

Resonance from the snare. I heard that right away. I believe that's what you said. The music was overpowering you a bit. Yeah, Zeppelin is so good. My very first cd was Zeppelin. This is one of those things where you wish you were there. Awesome.

[@ronniel879]

Pure Zeppelin …. Raw …uninhibited…off the cuff….. just bringing it!!!!!!

just as an FYi - Spirit - Fresh Garbage at 6:16 back to Mimms at 9:16; Fresh Garbage again at 10:17; Jethro Tull Cat's Squirrel at 11:54; Muddy Waters Mannish Boy/I'm a Man at 15:24; Chuck Berry No Money Down at 18:53; back to Muddy Waters 19:23 and then they end back with Mimms - all with LZ's twist of course

YOU ARE THE BEST!

i think whole band is REALLY high.. that speed..

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Going for it!

[@edyoung6573]

Now that was just raw!!! Crappy audio but man they (Zeppelin) was just so so good!!! Tough one to isolate, I'm a total Zep head and never heard this one. Love your channel brother!! Oh by the way The concert video/move The Song Remains the same was considered "a bad night" for them lol! It was the last night at Madison Square Garden the last leg of their American tour and they were getting burnt out. A crappy night for them I think would be a really great night for the current music industry if they were trying to play it live

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thanks for watching Ed!

[@edyoung6573]

@@AndrewRooneyDrums thank you for making these Led Zeppelin John Bonham reaction videos you're the best stay safe brother

[@ivanhecimovic8397]

Love that part were the song just slows down and then Bonham does that insane fill and the song then kicks into overdrive, sounds almost like punk but it's 1969!

[@HarshanSandhu-c4r]

which part are you referring to?

[@ivanhecimovic8397]

@@HarshanSandhu-c4r around the 7:08 mark

I've been begging other reviewer/reactors to do this tune, maybe the most outrageous Zep LIVE ever!!

You have to make a reaction video to John Bonham’s drum solo at Earl’s Court May 25, 1975. Arguably his best solo

That beautiful Ludwig vistalite snare on your desk is so appropriate! Is it vintage ? Or are Ludwig making reissues? I played a full orange vistalite in a music shop when I was a teenager and could only dream of owning one at the time ..(40 years ago) Peace and love brother 👍🏻☮❤

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Yes! I honestly didn't plan it either! It's an original :) Can't beat Ludwig. Go well my friend

Thanks! Will do Ryan!

[@garygraham2513]

I saw Zep 69, they were the opener for a completely forgettable US band called Iron Butterfly. It was my sense back then that Zep was still in the "learning and enjoying" each other phase of their development. They stole the show.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Wow lucky you Gary!

[@hadvezer99]

Check out this one too, the rythm section is way better sounding, unfortunately Robert's voice is buried, and JPJ's amp gives up halfway through, but still a very good sounding bootleg. Amazing groove and fills from Bonzo. Starts at 1:55 kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6LWqpVqZp2fiKc&ab_channel=AntonioKleeJ%C3%BAnior

[@nathanmcintyre694]

Drums, coffee, and Led Zeppelin. Is they anything better?!

[@ralph6968]

I still want to see you reacting to how many more times live 72 Denmark tv

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

I've done 'How Many More Times' 1969 Denmark radio show. It got blocked. Available to patrons only

[@johnr.8275]

This version is good, but the one to listen to is from three days before on April 24, 1969. On this particular version Bonzo's snare strands broke and his snare sounds pretty - I guess "flaccid"- is a good way to put it. The April 24 show, however, was recorded onstage with high end mics and the rhythm section is way higher in the mix than the vocals and guitar. Which is all well and good until Jonesy's amp blows up. But anyway....for a drumming perspective, check out the "Dancing Avocado" April 24, 1969 version. Bonzo's drums sound AMAZING.

[@ChurchOfTheHolyMho]

I find it crazy that sometimes all I can find is live drum cam footage w/ terrible audio, live video footage w/ good audio and no shots of the drummer, or an overly clean drum tutorial video... makes it hard to consider a video to submit.

[@fchampd4512]

Get the led zeppelin dvd

Range of stuff getting requested for sure

Cool i have that avocado Zeppelin coffee mug great jam

This is the venue and the time that set Zeppelin on top , Page could improvise for half an hour and not repeat himself,

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Incredible!

[@22julip]

@@AndrewRooneyDrums also this around the time that Joe Walsh sold Jimmy his Les Paul , the rest is history, they played a set in Boston tea party over 3 hrs with only one album out that’s an interesting set list , those days will never be again , great videos !

[@neilgoldsmith5882]

Next you gotta check out Warpigs Black Sabbath ( off the 1st album Self titled) Bill Ward is a contemporary of Bonzo and is just as good.

[@bendersbrain]

My god, that'S good

[@Scoobydcs]

you know its getting real when the bootlegs come out! at some point listen to this eddie is an absolute MUST for any bonham fan! even if yopu dont react to it i highly recomend you listen yourself (a reaction would be GREAT though). bonham had been ill and this night he just came in all guns blazing, he wasnt human that night!!! absolutely MONSTROUS sound! kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6XWnaeBjaplf9k 3 tracks in particular i recommend, the song remains the same (1st track) start the vid at 1:20 no quarter and achilles last stand. this whole gig needs to be heard to be believed!

This entire bootleg is paradigm altering. Led Zeppelin Boots has the whole thing. It's known as the Dancing Avocado bootleg.

[@aland4092]

Check out the wanton song.

[@globalunitedanimals]

In my opinion he was nowhere near the best because he was limited. Many things he sucked at. Especially pecially swing.

[@thehannomeiring]

I would give it a miss, just too difficult to listen to

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Sounds gets more defined after the opening Johan :)

[@thehannomeiring]

True, it was just a bit difficult to listen., But on the bright. I am a real fan. You should really do a video off Cobus Potgieter Skrillex cover. He is from South Africa like me
