Hugely important detour for the band. The first two albums were heavy...this one was lighter. The next album combines the two, and creates their masterpiece. This band will shock and amaze you all the way thru their catalog.

[@VIDSTORAGE]

Yea as if they ran the red light and made a left turn because it caused a wreck in the head of the fans but it did age for the better.

[@tektoniks_architects]

@@VIDSTORAGE Every step taken is a learning experience. The 3rd album shaped their music for the rest of their career, for the better.

[@johncampbell756]

A lot of the songs were acoustic as the songs were written at a farm with no electricity. Roy Harper was an Enhlish singer. He is the guest lead vocalist on Pink Floyd's "Have a Cigar" from the perfect slbum Wish You Were Here (1975). Hats Off to (Roy) Harper is performed like the old southern US blues artists like Robert Johnson. As others have said, this was the set up for the next three albums.

[@VIDSTORAGE]

@@tektoniks_architects Yes 3 was the foundation for the future of Zep albums

[@Gaiaphage]

John Paul Jones was the multi-instrumentalist of the group so if you hear something that isn't a bass, guitar, or drums, then its probably him playing it - apart from the harmonica which was normally played by Robert Plant

[@TheInvisibleMan229]

Perfect example is JPJ playing the Hammond organ on "Your Time Is Gonna Come." One of my favorite deep cuts from the debut. I don't know if it was released as a single or not, but you NEVER hear it on the radio (at least, I don't) or on compilation albums (e.g., Remasters).

Since I’ve Been Loving You Live, at Madison Square Garden (1973) is absolutely amazing, it’s my favorite live performance. You can see & feel the passion, especially from Plant & Page, a beautiful bluesy song.

[@levilevi9621]

Highway 61 and Blonde on Blonde by Dylan are fucking masterpieces.

[@themadcow71]

This would be most bands best album. Zeppelin honestly has all great albums it's just whatever one you prefer. Physical Graffiti is their best IMO

[@mikecaetano]

The album cover for Led Zeppelin III came with circular holes cut into it through which pictures from the inner sleeve could be seen. The inner sleeves on most vinyl records back then were made of white paper. But LZ covered the sleeve on this album with images of the band and flowers and things so when you rotated and flipped the sleeve around in different ways different pictures shown through the holes.

[@AntonyFleck]

Remember taking it to school to show my mates! Wish I still had it!!.

[@MsAppassionata]

After you finish the zeppelin albums, their live album from their movie “The Song remains the same” has my favorite version of many of their songs, including SIBLY

Hey Darius, Been watching reactors for years and I have to say - imho you’re one of the best. Your reactions are perceptive, surgical, intuitive and honest. Really enjoying sharing your journey down the Beatles/Zeppelin rabbit holes. Abbey Road and LZ2 were the first two albums I bought all those years ago. Noticed from your hospital pic that we share the same birthday in November - a pretty cool coincidence. Re your current disillusionment with hip hop - have you listened to anything from the UK? A long slept on gold mine. Best wishes from Australia 🇦🇺

[@lifeofdariius]

I really appreciate that I'm just getting started trust me I got a lot planned for the future 🙏🏾 No I don't really listen to any artists from the UK besides Little Simz but I'm noticing that a majority of the bands being suggested are from the UK so I guess I do listen now 😂 I don't meet many people with my birthday that's dope cheers birthday bredren 🙏🏾

recommend "tangled up in blue" or "Isis". Bob is the lyrical master. Anyone who wants to write lyrics needs a master course in Bob.

[@teddydog6229]

John Paul Jones also does a ton of the orchestrations and if you hear any synthesizer that's almost always him. So if you hear any weird seasonings it's probably JPJ.

[@teddydog6229]

Ok I know I’m not a Patreon but I wish I was. I love watching the channel, seeing how all this great music hits you like it first hit me, and your comments have me doubled over laughing every video. So I would love to be but money is just way too damn tight for me right now. But you keep doing exactly what you’re doing and I promise I will be soon. I’m telling you all this because in spite of that I have three suggestions for you to take or leave - 1. Just to get the full picture of what mystery man John Paul Jones brought to Led Zeppelin you only need to hear one track - the opening song on his solo album ‘Zuma’ If that song doesn’t put that “Damn !! Someone just punched me in the stomach !” look you get when some music is REALLY hitting home for you then I have misjudged you. I don’t even know the title. The whole album is instrumental and why bother with the titles of instrumentals but it’s short and has a bassline like ‘Immigrant Song’ on steroids. 2. You’re going to do this anyway because I’m pretty sure you said so but ‘Past Masters’ is just as necessary an album as the White Album. You just don’t get the full story until you hear all the A and B sides or extra tracks which didn’t make it to an album for whatever reason. The Beatles could shake the whole world with a single song as much as an album and Past Masters will prove that to you beyond a doubt. Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields Forever was a single and I know you heard them on Magical Mystery Tour. Now imagine a whole bunch of songs as good as those two which you haven’t heard. Can’t wait to see that episode ! 3. I see you were watching ‘A Hard Days Night’ on your Patreon and wish I could have joined you for that. I’ve watched just about every movie by a rock n roll band and that’s in my top 3. Second is ‘Gimme Shelter’ with The Rolling Stones. It’s a documentary about the free festival they played in 1969 which went seriously wrong. The Hells Angels were hired as security if you can believe that. First you get to see the Stones playing live in 1969 and you’ll get why, for decades, they were known as the Greatest Rock N Roll Band in the World. Second you get to see the Hells Angels actually murder a man on film. A lot of people say that concert and the Manson murders put an end to the whole 60s culture and I have to agree. But the Stones live in their prime ? No one better. Not then and not since. Third is the movie ‘Head’ by the Monkees. I’ll tell you the short version of the Monkees. The networks wanted a weekly TV show about a band like the Beatles but safe for little kids. A show about a made up band struggling to be popular like the Beatles but never quite making it. At first that’s what they got but those four kids they hired to play ‘The Monkees’ would only play along so far. Their producers felt the same way and as the show went on both the show and the music got weirder and weirder and the network got more and more unhappy. Problem was the two producers encouraged the band to be themselves and act as crazy as they wanted and the Monkees did. How about hiring Jimi Hendrix to be the opening act on their 1967 tour for instance ? They were a made for TV band that became a real band. It’s like Pinocchio or actually more like Frankenstein. So season 2 ends and it’s time for their big feature film of course. So Micky, Mike, Davy and Peter and their two producers and Jack Nicholson (the guy with the best seats at Lakers games) went out to a desert resort with the best weed money could buy and they wrote ‘Head’. I won’t tell you the plot except it involves a black box, opens with the Monkees committing suicide, and co-stars Frank Zappa, Annette Funicello and Sonny Liston. It bombed HUGE at the time and pretty much ended the Monkees but it became a cult classic. It came out in 1968 and I first saw it at an art gallery - for real - in 1981 and it was better than I ever imagined. I have probably seen that movie 20 times since and I swear there is something funny and/or subversive in every frame. Best movie by a rock band ever in my opinion. Magical Mystery Tour (the movie) is a sloppy boring mess by comparison. ‘Head’ does not let up for its entire 85 minutes. Your head will spin, I promise you. Just a thought from a freeloading subscriber but as soon as I saw you did a reaction video for a film I just had to speak up. Ok and one last… 4. If/when you do The Beach Boys you have to include the Dennis Wilson solo album ‘Pacific Island Blue’. It will break your heart but in a good way, like The Beach Boys always do when they’re firing on all cylinders. Ok NOW I’m done. Peace !✌️

Folk singer Roy Harper was a friend of the band. He was known for his distinctive fingerstyle guitar playing. He also sang the lead vocals on Pink Floyd’s "Have a Cigar". LZIV makes up for any missteps on LZIII, but revisit LZIII after you've listened to all their albums because the songs on it will grow on you.

[@totallytubulartommy]

Just stumbled upon your channel in my recommendations. This is only my second vid I’ve watched besides your LZII reaction, and man, as a younger music producer & classic rock/electric guitar buff (who also LOVES hip hop) it is so refreshing to see you actually reading into the instrumental/lyrical wombo combo that’s displayed through Led Zeppelin’s music. Seeing you truly appreciate the quality of talent as it’s presented by a band like LZ, with fresh ears, is awesome. Really goes to show how they were able to take over the world back in the day. Since these songs were recorded, it has become such a different musical ecosystem, with hip hop, pop, and rap primarily dominating the charts in our modern age. And now it’s hard for me to find people my age who actually appreciate this kind of genius musical composition, regardless of being presented in a more “outdated” way as most people think these days, since this kind of raw rock music isn’t as popular.

[@emmanuelsantos4414]

De Natal RN Nordeste Brasil. Vendo-o e ouvindo estes sons do Led Zeppelin, estou revivendo os anos 1975/1976 quando na minha adolescência. Muito obrigado e feliz ao ver um jovem, hoje, conhecendo o que vivemos em um antigo e lindo dia!

[@morpher44]

everyone is waiting for you to do Led Zep 4, but in my opinion, Physical Graffiti (double album) will blow your mind. We played that album over and over again until the groves were worn down to pure static. Anyone who wants to buy an album from the Led should definitely buy Physical Graffiti.

[@ursgeiser6570]

Totally wrong recommendation; PG is not representative of LZ music; the only convincing side was 3. In addition, the production/mix is ​​particularly one-sided, partly one-sided, uniform Hadrock. On page 4 there are some short fillers, no hghlight. In addition, 1/3 of the songs come from an earlier session. An too long album. The PG songs were more convincing live because they were mixed more equally instrumentally. Question for you: why did LZ play live from PG so soon afterwards??? often only 3-4.

[@matthewashman1406]

Yes but many struggle with a double album. In tactic thinking should of been 2 single albums . Maybe released 6 months apart. Would have sold much more.

[@jonunderscore]

Since I've Been Loving You is just lightning in a bottle, peak iconic Zeppelin all the way through, it's perfection like you said. The live version on Song Remains the Same is WILD. (You should definitely check out that video sometime, live Zeppelin is from another world.) At its root, it's just a simple blues song. But it's Zeppelin doing it and the way they do it is special. They have their critics who say they bastardized and plagiarized the blues. But I think what they did for the blues was absolutely necessary, they breathed new life into it and took it into the hard rock era, showing that it is both timeless and still has new things to say. There is no Black Sabbath, no Ramones, no Nirvana, no White Stripes, without Zeppelin. I love being able to relive hearing these songs for the first time through you, man. Gives me a new perspective and I can appreciate them even more. Same thing for the Beatles. Thanks for another one.

[@lifeofdariius]

yeah that's why I generally ignore those comments I did some research and there was definitely some plagiarism going on 😂 but none of that takes away from the magnitude of these guys talent. Nobody would be talking about all that if the songs we're bad

I love Zeppelin 3. So much variety.

[@user-vv7lp9nn6y]

This album needs to be taken in context. The band had been touring and recording flat out, and most of this was written during their first proper break. Page and Plsnt spent some weeks in a remote Welsh cottage called Bron y raur with nothing but them and an acoustic guitar, and this is what came out. True to say Bonham and JPJ didn't have as much involvement until they got into the studio to record them. But it paved the way for the greater diversity which was to come in the next few albums

Love your reactions! You said early on that you feel hip hop right now is stagnating. Music has its cycles. I hope young guys like you fuse what you love about OTHER genres with hip hop and make it new! That's what LZ did, reaching back into the 1930s and 1920s with blues. It's what the Beatles did with soul, older rock and roll, and then pulling in influences from all over. There're only two kinds of music ... Music you like. And music you don't like ... yet!

I’m really glad you enjoyed this album. I was waiting for your response to “Since I’ve Been Loving You” and you hit it just right. It is the centerpiece of the album, no doubt. You hear that they aren’t just playing the song, you hear them listening to one another and letting each other shine through, and they are all firing on all cylinders here. And around this period was arguably their best live performances as well-with call and responses and just pushing the envelope of what a rock band can do. And they sound balanced as well. I still have to see your response to side 2, but hopefully it won’t let you down. Less drums and more raw acoustic tunes, but it truly rounded out the breadth of their live sets. Wait till you get to IV. I do recommend having the album cover and sleeve in your hands for that one-it is a real experience seeing and feeling the music, smelling the vinyl of the album and experiencing how it should be experienced the very first time. Same with Beatles’ “Sgt Pepper” album. It’s a multi sensory experience. Thanks as always for your fun responses. Enjoy the rest of the Zep catalogue. And don’t forget to include their live double album from 1973 Madison Square Garden for their film “The Song Remains The Same” before moving on to their 1975 double album “Physical Graffiti” which will also BLOW YOUR MIND.

You mentioned that the Beatles had 2 minute songs and all these songs are 5 minutes. Keep in mind, it was the Beatles who broke the standard of getting songs longer than 3:30 minutes on the radio. Hey Jude, in 1968, was 7 minutes long and their producers tried to get them to edit it because it wouldn’t get any airplay. They refused. “We’re the bloody Beatles. They will play it.” And they did! They played the 8 minute Revolution Number 9, Day in a Life, and the entire long medley on Abbey Road. The Beatles paved the way for bands like Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd to be able to make those epic songs. Iron Butterfly’s Ina-Gadda-Da-Vida, also in 1968, was 17 minutes long. There was an edited version, but radio DJ’s would sometimes play the long version. By 1970, when this album came out, longer songs on the radio were more normal. Eric Clapton’s epic son, Layla was 7 minutes. There was an edited single version, but fans often requested the long version. Fans, back then, had a LOT of power over what was played on the radio. We could literally call the radio station any time of day or night and request music to be played. We could often talk directly to the DJ’s. DJ’s played their own set list. But they kept track of what fans wanted to hear. That doesn’t happen anymore. It’s a damn shame, too!

[@teresagorden5984]

I have been watching for awhile, Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and can't wait until you explore Pink Floyd. it made me think about what else I listened to when Led Zeppelin albums were coming out, and I recall going to my girlfriend's basement in the 70s and could turn the volume up. the other albums out then that we played over and over were Janis Joplin, Jimmy Hendrix Experience , and the Cream. cream was made up of a youngish Eric Clapton on guitar and Jack Bruce on bass, and Ginger Baker on drums. Album Disraili Gears . Those were great days and good music. Enjoying music especially in the summer school breaks. I, met my first real boyfriend, who was in a band who practiced in the Church across the street from me. We dated, he bought me my first acoustic guitar , and I did some back up singing etc., we became engaged and married on Feb 14th❤. He was one of those people who could play any instrument, read and write music, naturally gifted. I had to learn the old fashioned way..... practice., except I always sang. I grew up listening to my 3 older brother's music like Elvis, etc. my Dad was a singer, as well at home, like Frank Sinatra, etc. Pink Floyd for me was not just music, but a soul , mind changing experience. I have been to thousands of concerts, still do, but Pink Floyd got me through some hard times throughout my life. I hope you will appreciate them and enjoy their music. Enjoy all music, Bro.

Loving your reactions.. LZ the Greatest.. can't wait to follow your journey thru the catalouge.. So much ahead! Enjoy Kid!!

I absolutely love since I’ve been loving you, but my favorite song on zeppelin 3 is That’s the way

[@johnharris6087]

3 is one of my favorites.

[@wsn0009]

Zeppelin III is 🔥 It's certainly a departure from the first 2 albums, but it has great tracks on it. Since I've Been Loving You is one of my favorites.

[@user-fc8lz1cg4x]

Yeah, it's must to watch Since I've Been Loving You LIVE. 😊

[@jayrayc1378]

I cannot WAIT to see you react to Led Zeppelin 4!

[@ozymandias1030]

Led zeppelin iv will blow mind🤯

[@barbarjinx3802]

1. Immigration Song You’ll hear on lots of movies used heavily in Thor: Ragnarok 2. Gallows Pole is an old English folk song they Leded. It’s not light if you think about the dude about to die and what he’s hoping for. It’s a mover. I think it will grow on you what with the rushing and impending doom. 3. Tangerine was used perfectly in the movie Almost Famous a movie based on true events involving them and a kid writing an article about them. 4. I think Brony will grow on you. And remember JPJ also plays the keyboards. He’s their secret sauce.

Just finished off the reaction back w/another quick comment (I had to bolt for a bit after "Friends") and just wanted to say that your reaction to "Since I've been loving you" was all by itself worth the price of admission, lol. Dude, you had me guilt-tripping a little, wondering if **I** have been appreciating the song's awesomeness enough all these years! IMO, ALL Zep albums are great, and while NONE of the songs actually suck, not all are mind-blowingly brilliant. But so many ARE. Pound-for-pound, just the BEST, in my book.

[@lifeofdariius]

They perfected every aspect of that song everybody was on their A-game that day it was genuinely an experience for me to listen too. And there's definitely been some hit or miss tracks but the highs are just too high 😂

[@joescott8877]

@@lifeofdariius Right on. If/When u get to checking out their live show vids, either reacting or not, be sure to do "SIBLY" from 1973 Mad. Sq. Gard. performance. Jimmy STARTS it with a blistering solo, then later shreds on the regular one in the middle like the studio you just heard. It's all 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@PiGCiTYSoUNDCo]

Love seeing you hear this for the first time. It reminds me of when I first heard it. Glad you tripped on since I've Been Loving You. Zep did three slow blues tunes. The Otis Rush classic, I Can’t Quit You Babe (Zep 1), Since I’ve Been Loving You. (Zep 3), and Tea For One (Presence). These are all stand outs for me. Darius, I think you recognize the folk influences on this album (Pages’ acoustic album), but I am not sure you realize how much blues influence all of their stuff has. Hats Off to Roy Harper is a straight up Mississippi Delta play. The vocals were made to sound authentic. There wasn’t PA back then. Vocalist would plug into a guitar amp and it sounded like that. Those guitar amps often had tremolo built in, so that is why you would hear it on vocals. Jimmy Page was doing his best attempt at Elmore James.

[@Grumpy_Rabbit]

"Since I've Been Loving You" is one of their absolute best songs. And personally, I REALLY like "Immigrant Song." That was the very first Led Zep song I ever heard, back in high school in the early 1970s. (Literally "in high school": The song was played over the audio system in the high school cafeteria one day, while I was eating my lunch.)

[@CharlesTRose]

you could also watch people playing a cover of the lemon song or whatever on bass/drums/guitar to really make it clear

[@revevsetcandwhatnot8484]

Love your reactions. Can't wait till you get to Pink Floyd 😍

[@fedegwagwa]

Led Zep 4 is a great album but not my favourite from them. I'd say it has to be Houses Of The Holy, so diverse, and the band is finally free and mature. It's the most experienced and creative album by them in my opinion, plus it contains arguably the best Led Zeppelin song, The Rain Song. You have to react to it for sure!

[@chrisbudwal2757]

Im only 20 mins into your review, but this is my fave Zed album. But side 2 is where the magic is for me. Cant wait to see how you feel about it

[@tomdickens2001]

You’ll lose your mind if you do AC/DC’s early discography

[@juliemanarin4127]

Zeppelin albums are absolutely brilliant!

[@stevenschmidt3464]

I was never a big fan of this album, but it still had one of the best songs of all time (since I've been loving you), and for that, it is worth making the whole thing

[@darrelhernandez3559]

You have To know their mind set at the time. The band stayed in a castle and sort of chilled for a bit after the success and chaos of stardom and all that comes with it. Deep down there was a chill side of the 70's and here's were they kicked back, reflected, and just had fun. It would be the last time in a long time they would have that chance and I think they saw it comming so don't hate just chill like Zeppelin did for a bit

[@DarthLore00]

Promise me you'll do a Dark Side of the Moon reaction soon

[@althealligator1467]

Bass really just means like the low end, so like the lowest sounds that aren't the drums. So like you should just be listening out for the lowest note. Usually in Rock, and most genres actually, it's a bass guitar which is literally just a guitar made to play super low notes. But in modern rap, the bass is usually covered by 808s rather than a bass guitar.

[@lifeofdariius]

thank you Al I know it's like talking to a toddler sometimes but I am learning 😂😅

[@althealligator1467]

@@lifeofdariius lol I mean there's honestly no reason you should really know this unless you're a musicians or already know a lot about music

[@teddydog6229]

I admit I was worried Darius just wasn't going to stand for Zeppelin 3 but was I ever wrong. We're watching a true Zeppelin fan being created here.

[@teddydog6229]

Lol talk about NOT taking the album home they way they should have. Hats Off To Harper is probably my least favorite Led Zeppelin song until In Through The Outdoor. The album really should have ended with an A bomb.

[@user-fc8lz1cg4x]

Their music will sooth your soul. 🥰

[@kennethcamilleri4678]

Every music critic when this album first came out in the early seventies hated the album…..the album was under appreciated and misunderstood on how great Jimmy Page and Plant were as producers and song writers….it was truly a great album and acoustically was something that we were blown away with…..

[@chrisbudwal2757]

Bron y'ur Stomp (just like martha my dear) is about their dog - my fave Zed song of al tie

[@Ciargomes]

listen since i been loving you in LIVE MSG 1973 😍❤️ the best of led zeppelin

[@jonathandavies639]

It’s pronounced ‘Bron Ee Our’ and I think is named after the cottage in Wales they all stayed in. I have a soft spot for it as it’s about Robert’s love for his sheepdog. A lot of the album is influenced by English folk music and traditional songs. Don’t worry NO ONE likes Hats off to Roy Harper…

[@JJJJJVVVVVLLLLL]

I like Hats Off

[@user-uh2tw8ym9n]

I think Hats off is great

[@laurentbergeronmusic]

People just say 3 is bad because its sandwiched between 2 and 4 which are probably their two best albums.

[@matthewashman1406]

Umm ,as for jimmy pushed to the back. He co-,wrote every song . And his playing is all over everything. Especially side 1 . And his acoustic tone and feel on side 2 is gorgeous. The riffs are his . And as for celerbration day. That is a fantastic rocker with a twist,both the riff and timing . But yeah its interesting how people hear things.. if anyone was pushed to the back it was bonham. But. only for a little. Love your reviews

[@dylanleclair5171]

Keep it up bro

[@RKSidd]

Don't care what anybody says, Zeppelin iii absolutely showcases the takents of the four members. This is probably Robert Plants best studio work. And glad you liked "Friends", this is one of my favourites... haunting and interesting structure
