John Paul Jones is playing keyboards and he's playing the baseline with his feet with the base pedal. So maybe that's why you don't really have that big impact

POLO! I will always hit the "like" button on your videos, no matter what. If anything it's because of the honesty of your reactions. You are genuine and one of a kind. 😉

[@maxwellmax9586]

What do I think? I think I like your honesty, that is what I think. And I think you should react to Stevie Ray Vaughan's cover of Jimi Hendrix's Third Stone From the Sun. I hear Stevie Ray tries to pay tribute to Hendrix in his live performance of this song. I cannot find a live performance of Hendrix and Third Stone, but if it was anything like SRV's performance, it would be mind blowing. Not many people have reacted to SRVs performance, of Third Stone and it is worth reacting too. See the LIVE at El Macombo Third Stone, it's awesome. No, it's not the greatest song, but the performance is off the chart. Don't miss it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYqodqKsqs2mnbssi=_gqKmnsIb2eblQeI

Thank you for the heads up. I just read your comment as the song was starting and stopped. I can't watch anyone cut a Zeppelin song off as part of their reaction for any reason. But to do it to Kashmir? Nope. I won't unsubscribe but I'm definitely giving this a pass.

When he stopped the reaction and said it's way to long, my jaw literally dropped. I have never heard that, EVER. He might be insane.

[@3rdOption-l9t]

⬛When i saw you were listening to the studio version 2nd, I didn't remember your 1st listen, so I went back, found it, and watched it right before this one. The *moment* the studio version started I went, "Wow. This sounds hollow. Empty. WTF?" Bearing in mind that LZ **IS** music for me [insert origin story]. Why I played guitar. Period. 🟥Where you went wrong bailing on the track was, your ear is tuned to modern mixes of tunes that are massively bass heavy. If you don't feel bass in your chest, it's not there. But the studio arrangement for Kashmir is basically a symphonic one. All the horns you hear, strings, and any bass is done by John Paul Jones on synths. Watch him live and he's playing 3 synths, one with each hand, and bass pedals like an organist. 🟩What you missed was detail and clarity. You can hear every note JPJ plays. You can hear precisely what John Bonham does on the drums, and Plant's vocals are pristinely recorded. This track is best listened to, as another commenter said, when you are in a green cloud, or, with a musician's ear for detail. 🟪When this was recorded, we didn't have pumpin' subs that rattled the lug nuts off the wheels of your car and killed seniors in the nursing home you drove by. You're not wrong in your initial reaction. If you decide to give it another listen, go for details. Try to pick out each instrument. Did you hear the tuba right before you stopped the song? *That* was JPJ playing bass, in this arrangement. If you missed it, I guarantee you missed a lot more, like the phaser on Bonham's drums. The genius of Zeppelin is the massive, creative compilation of details piled on details, provided by 4 master musicians, who were really just kids when they did all this. 🟨Ignore any hate for your response. This is music🎶. It's *supposed* to hit us all differently.💜

[@ClearlyBlissful]

Good analysis. 👍 And then there’s the beat, which is different because the guitar riff is in 3/4 and the driving phase shifted drumming is in 4. It cycles back to the one beat after 12 beats.

[@3rdOption-l9t]

@@ClearlyBlissful Exactly. 🎵🎶The complexity that you don't hear in current commercial music. 😐 🗣There's a scene in "It Might Get Loud" where Jimmy grabs a guitar tuned for Kashmir, and starts playing the main riff, and The Edge and Jack White are just sitting on couches in awe, but studying intently. Then they join in with parts they pulled out by ear on their normally tuned guitars. Just found it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXXMlXSdmbFnZrs A great movie that deserves a full viewing.👍

My Favorite Led Zeppelin Song of All Time and they have Soo Many Great Songs. Just Hits Different for Me

[@davidanon1568]

This song was written by Jimmy Page during a trip to Morocco with Robert Plant. The deep Sahara is like a another planet. Robert Plant the singer was in love with Morocco and the Sahara and visited as often as he could.

[@gliebzeit]

"All I see turns to brown ... As the sun burns the ground". One of the best lines in song.

[@caseyrayconway]

Of course Kashmir is 5,000 miles away in the Himalayan Mountains...

[@davidanon1568]

@@caseyrayconway Not to be a stickler for detail, But Kashmir is right up next to the Himalayan Mountains, it's a province of India. Morocco, the song was originally titled "Driving to Morocco", is like 7000 miles away from Kashmir. Why they changed the name of the song to Kashmir never made much sense to me.

[@caseyrayconway]

​ @davidanon1568 I'm well aware, I grew up in a town called Mussoorie, 250 miles away. Both are very much in the foothills of the Himalayas. Jammu and Kashmir's elevation is 6,000 feet, solidly in the mountains, as opposed to the desert you originally referenced. And Morocco is 7500 KM from Kashmir, or like 5,000 miles, like I said. If you're gonna correct someone . . .

[@Maizy1985]

It was written by Plant and Page.

[@kellyferguson6100]

Page and plant say this is one of their fav songs.

[@001spring]

Ive never heard anyone not liking this song.

[@pkleo73]

this was THE song that completely hooked me into Zeppelin in 95-ish. Id heard all their popular radio stuff over the years, but it was mostly in one ear, out the other. And I had a brother 8 yrs older so I had been exposed to tons of classic music. Except this. My brother never listened to them. So it kept bugging me that I had this 'ear worm' in my head of this song that I knew was Zep, but didnt know what song. FINALLY got someone to help me narrow it down. And maaan...it was over. I borrowed his box set and it was off to the races. Mustve listened this track a thousand times since. This, Ten Years Gone, When The Levee Breaks..and on and on. So good.

[@NedKelly1967]

Love watching you dive into Led Zeppelin they are simply the most amazing band ever

[@you6382tube]

One absolute favorite, and a masterpiece to many. Jimi Page said this might be his among his top favorites too. Inspired by his trip to Morocco with Plant. Song has a hollowness, unfamiliar-ness with the rhythm. Like a backward playing sound track, then the middle eastern riffs... then symphony, sublime. Haunting... imagine a desolate, arid, never-ending landscape ahead, wavy water oasis mirages at the horizon. Lifeless. Spacious. And beautiful. Lyrics.... Traveler of time and space, .... sit with elders of gentle race, a world that's seldom seen. Not a word I heard could I relate... fascinating and sublime. When and where else can we get a taste of this particular imaginary musical mindtrip?

So there is a film called It Might Get Loud where The Edge (U2), Jack White and Jimmy all talk guitars. He says this song came out of a way he tuned his guitar and they heard him doing it and he morphed it into a song. It's a good film, worth a watch.

[@gliebzeit]

Polo, your reaction is 'bass - less'. Thanks for your reaction video, brother.

[@smith9808]

There’s a much better version where bass is turned up on the 2015 remaster. Avoid the mothership album. (The one in the picture as it’s from 2007) It’s a shame you cut it off, the last two minutes are the best two minutes. You’re the first person I’ve ever seen do that…

[@joanlajara3939]

Love any Zeppelin but live was sooo good!

[@36karpatoruski]

Pysical Graffiti was not recorded very bass-forward. As a matter of fact, it was not recorded as well overall as albums 1-4. The same holds true for every remaster series they ever did. The live performances, especially from Celebration Day, was both recorded with more bass and the whole thing was more compressed to sound much punchier and “modern”. When I listen to the studio version, I have the same impression as you, and turn up the bass knob, but still won’t fix it. But in 1975, the studio version is what we had, and was more than enough to sell a zillion copies and drive Zep to new heights not matched by ANYONE at the time. Because it’s still all about the music in the final analysis.

[@juliemanarin4127]

1979 at knebworth was the best live version of this song!

[@tombreeden595]

John Paul was playing keyboards with his hands and bass with his feet.

[@brucefollett8117]

You stopped the song just before the best part. The bass doesn't become any more prominent, but John Bonham was just about to go bonkers on the drums and the rest of the boys let loose too. Your point about the bass is well taken. It was a creative choice which, I believe, Zep stand by. The band considers this song their masterpiece.

I agree Polo , i grew up with all these bands , a lot sounds dated and this goes on and on , but songs that come form a small cross section like , in Melbourne , AC/DC , pre Bon , at a school dance , but the pub scene had brilliant artists , Like Chain Matt Taylor , blues scene , do yourself a favour , as an Aussie DJ used to say and listen to Matt Taylor and Chain Live ,Doing " I remeber when i was young " with arguably the best Guitarist in Aus ,Mick Coke bottle glasses Rudd , he is a gifted dental flosser , if his guitar , and how he can play it is any guide , cheers Polo from Aus, You do this the ubeaut , humility , i find it good , i think Kashmir is overlong and dated , but you were inoffensive ,thats legal bro cheers

[@tamitatangoto5134]

I'm pretty sure that the song was done the way they wanted to do it,..they left out the bass on purpose. I'm pretty sure it gets more bassy later on as the song progresses, possibly😮

[@motorcitymaniac167]

Suggestion, have lyrics for songs to read along while listening. Another fun fact about this song-Kashmir” became an ever-present fixture in their live shows, Jones playing a key role: his keyboards stood in for brass and strings, while his pedal work filled in for the lack of bass guitar

[@christianm7220]

[@williamtaylor9368]

With all of the keyboards in this song the bass is played through the keyboards.

I saw this live in '77 at the Forum in L. A. Lasers were a new thing. Jimmy Page did guitar solo during the song. He used a violin bow to play the guitar. As he did so a laser was projected onto his chest. It rotated to the beat. Very cool for the day. I'm 68 and a sub for a few years. Keep up the great content!

[@farrenrohana]

I'm so jealous! I've been to tons of rock concerts but never got to see my number 1 band live. Actually there's more than 1 band in my #1 band slot because I love Pink Floyd just as much! I got to see Pink Floyd in Vancouver in 1998ish, I'm 61 today.

[@DGreene697]

Led Zeppelin fan here for 45 years. I don't have that mothership album as I bought each album when they came out, and then the remastered boxed set. When I listened to that version, I agree with you. It sounds muted, like it's not a good recording. Try listening to another studio version.

[@motorcitymaniac167]

The Lemon song by Led Zeppelin, YOU WANT BASS great song 👍🏼

[@vetti2u]

This is a GREAT example why I believe that you (not just you personally!) should ALWAYS listen to the studio version of a song first in order to have some context about what musicians are trying to reproduce Live. When you do it in the opposite order, I believe that you can't help but unconsciously think of the Live version as the original version.

[@KarenSutherland-h8s]

My favourite Led Zeppelin song. I grew up with Zeppelin….love so many of their songs..they’re magical..never found a better band in fifty years. I feel like I am in Morocco when I listen to this song…named the panty remover song ..so true. Definitely check out Gallows Pole,immigrant song, heartbreaker and communication breakdown…and another great group of my era and beyond…Pink Floyd.

[@vincentjacovino9097]

One of the best songs ever written. If you can't feel this song you have a problem.

[@marzcapone9939]

John Paul Jones is playing a Mellotron, looks like a keyboard, but plays long tape loops of other instruments. The lack of base could be the source you are listening to. Meaning, something from KZbin is not only compressed, but the Mothership version is not the same mastering as the original.

[@spadams999]

You may be having trouble identifying the beat because there are multiple, simultaneous time signatures going on here. The verses are principally in 6/8 time but the drums play in a 4/4 rhythm against it. It's genius at work!

❤ this song is a spiritual experience for me ❤

[@johnwalsh9144]

"Like the dust that blows high in June when I'm moving through Kashmir" is the only line in the song referring to the title. Preceding that line, is "My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon, I will return again" Shangri-La is a Tibetan utopia (referred to in a James Hilton novel ). This would correlate with Kashmir, the northern most geographical region of the Indian subcontinent between the Himalayas and the Pir Punjal Mountain range (China). I believe in the song lyrics, they might be comparing some of the conditions (geography/weather) they are experiencing (probably on a hired expedition) in the northern Sahara Desert which reaches parts of southern Morrocco), with a previous trip they had to Tibet or perhaps descriptions he read about in novels? His wife and her family are from India, not that far north, but it may also be possible they had a visit at some point?

[@jordenelliott7361]

I know exactly what you mean I think it has to do with the equipment they had back then. I think we as music listeners have evolved to prefer heavy base in our music over all.

[@sjekwurzel7459]

Hey thanks for your content. I've loved zeppelin for years but struggled to fully appreciate this song until I heard a live version. John Paul would switch from bass guitar to keyboards and back, as needed. So because of all the other instrumental lines his base line in this one is generated by the keyboard. Hence, less less low frequency "punch". But I respect that you gave your true reaction, otherwise it defeats the purpose. Thanks

Huh. That's an interesting take. I guess all of us who enjoy the old masters of classical music (Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, etc., etc., etc.) shouldn't be bothered because we didn't "grow up with it"? To broaden one's horizons, it doesn't hurt to know the masters, and Led Zeppelin were the masters of rock.

It’s Zep. I’ll take what I can get. Bass, no bass, sometimes I think that, with hindsight and modern technology, we long for perfection. To me and for me, as an older person, nothing is better than vinyl. That’s not to say that there aren’t great live recordings of bands and concerts available (Pink Floyd) but my ears are not as sophisticated as everyone else’s seems to be. I like the music the way it was recorded. It’s more than just the music, it’s peeling that album out of the jacket and placing it on the turn table and hearing the magic that was Led Zeppelin. Enjoy your reactions as always Polo.
