I was at this concert, Knebworth is only 15km from my home. Led Zeppelin greatest band ever.

That middle eastern sound comes from the harmonic minor mode they were using . All of this live without auto tune, without soundtrack and lip sync, all without a safety net. True talent stands the test of time.

No one will ever match this band. This song and when the levee breaks are beyond normal rock!

[@turnsufficient4971]

They were definitely different than the other musicians of their time. They did not play games ! They went out there and played the shows and songs like it was the last day of their lives. Led Zeppelin left it all out on the stage. They were effing amazing. ❤

[@whipit4me]

John Paul Jones is Zeppelin's true treasure!! This particular track, Jones is playing bass pedals with his feet while playing that Yamaha GX-1 synthesizer ( 3 keyboards) truly amazing musician!!

[@ronaldelliott4373]

Yes Carol you’re right. Kashmir is the land on the northwestern side of India also connected to Pakistan, which both countries have been fighting to take control from the other forever. The inspiration and use of the Arabic Scale in the music’s progression came from Jimmy and Robert’s travels to Morocco. (Which they loved) The lyrics are a remarkable piece of storytelling from Robert. One part that stands out for this American living along the U.S. Gulf Coast is the line, “The sands that fly so high in June.” The Saharan sands cross the Atlantic Ocean each yr during hurricane season, dumping much of it on those States along The Gulf of Mexico. First time I read these lyrics back in the day I remember thinking to myself, this Robert Plant guy knows his shit! Funny, after all these years, he really does… 👈😉

[@Historian212]

Morocco was a big destination for those seeking drugs and a retreat from the West, back in the day.

[@vaughnnewman8903]

Nice pick for your first Zepplin song- one of the most iconic songs from one of the most iconic, legendary and influential rock/metal/blues bands in the history of Rock. They are legendary for a reason.

[@travelbuddiesexcellentadve4117]

I spent time with my 4 year old granson the other day...he was wearing a LZ tee shirt! My son introduced him to Led. First thing out my mouth was,"Led Zeppelin, the greatest rock band ever....my favorite song is Kashmir!" I played Kashmir for him while in the car! I'm now 77...what a great way to pass on my passion of 50 years...through my son and he to his son! Really fun watching you guys!

When the Levee Breaks is another hypnotic song with a definite delta blues sound. Their catalog is so diverse it's insane!!

[@ewetoobblowzdogg8410]

I watched Page & Plant do this with not only a full symphony orchestra behind them but also accompanied by an egyptian orchestra. It was magic

[@VoltesWithElias]

Nice reaction guys. It is always best to listen to studio versions of their songs. Led Zeppelin were masters in the studio first and foremost. The live versions are experimental and amazing but the studio versions are the foundation of the idea and capture the essence of the song.

[@DianeLake-sw3ym]

I was a teen in mid 70s and had Led Zeppelin's albums. I would listen to them all the time. I loved this group and their music. this song I would listen to on my headphones and let it take me to lands or universes far away. It just had this power for a teenager in a small city in Illinois to feel I could travel to many places on this song. But, much of their music spoke to me. I just felt it in my bones like no one else could do. They were just a powerful, musically gifted band.

[@VegasAlien1]

Every time I watch this I get kind of overwhelmed. Missing John Bonham today as much as ever. One of my drumming heroes, a legend.

[@howardbrown911]

You have just touched the incredible surface of the LZ universe. So many other mind blowing masterpieces to listen to!!!

[@EdA1]

Just found your channel, love your reaction! 1979 is near the end of Led Zeppelin‘s career, you MUST listen to Whole Lotta Love from 1969, ten years earlier, the beginning of their career. Their music evolved tremendously and I think you will be shocked in a great way, please make sure you listen to the studio version, official video of Whole Lotta Love! Can’t wait to see that reaction someday. 😊

[@vernhoke7730]

Probably their best song, at least in my book. Even Robert Plant lists it as one of his favorites. I bought this album back in high school in 1975, sadly I never managed to see them in concert before the called it quits in 1980. I highly recommend checking out their live performance from 2007 at the O2 arena 32 years after releasing this song. The drummers son fills in on drums for his late father.

[@anthonypowell6234]

As hip hop fans, you would surely like "The Ocean" and "When the Levee Breaks". Both songs have been sampled numerous times by rap and hip hop acts.

There is life before Led Zeppelin and living afterwards.

[@rebeccageorgesisto8965]

I love your reaction channel! You two are awesome!

[@sicotshit7068]

Plant & Page drove through the Sahara Desert, on their way to a music festival. They enjoyed meeting the people, who seemed from another time. Though neither could speak the same language, the music connected them, Plant fell in love with Morocco & still goes there often. He wrote the lyrics about his journey visiting the area, wanting to share what he loves about it. Actually after the band split up, & him & Page worked together again, they got Eastern musicians to play & tour with them.

[@Historian212]

I'd love to know why they named it Kashmir, which isn't in the Middle East (aka Southwest Asia) or North Africa. BTW fun fact, Morocco is located west of most of Europe. Its southernmost part aligns roughly with the eastern shore of Iceland. Longitudinally speaking.

[@sicotshit7068]

@@Historian212 plant stated it wasn’t about the place, but a state of mind & their adventure, the road they traveled seemed never ending. The music was something Page was playing around with for awhile, one late night at Headley Grange, Page & Bonham got most of it figured out. It still took awhile to get the music the way they wanted, & JPJ’s arrangement. Plant was having some trouble writing it, because of the time signatures, & knowing the music was so great. Maybe too Kashmir just flowed better then Morocco, because none of them had ever been to Kashmir. What ever the reason, it’s a beautiful song, musically & vocally & one the band is most proud of.

[@Bluewizard7131]

Check out Since I've Been Loving You live from 1973! Greatest live band in history!

[@donaldbrunner6250]

This is what I consider their second greatest song. The first is "Stairway to Heaven". If you listen to it try the 1973 MSG concert version Jimmy Page does an epic 3-4 minutes minute guitar solo.

[@johnbell6507]

hi guys loving your reaction to the greatest rock band ever to grace this earth it’s so good to see the young people of today enjoying this timeless masterpiece. Please please please do your selves a favour and delve deeper into the catalogue especially the live performances at msg or Earl’s Court much love to you both from the uk 👍

[@cpreman]

The reason this song is so incredible is the timing of the guitar, Bass, and keyboards do not sync witht he drums. Bonham is playing 3 beats to Page playing on 4 beats. Very hard to do. It gives you that feeling like leaning back in a chair and you start to fall back but catch yourself at the last second.....

[@Dav0London]

I was there too. It was the last time they played live with Bonham. Oh the memories.

[@MrRickSteele]

They got the idea and feelings from Jimmy & Robert's trip to Morocco, thru the desert to the mountains of Atlas. Also meet Berbers and got on well with them. And ending in Marrakech. I have no idea how they came to use the name Kashmir other than the well known spiritual and mysteries of Kashmir made it a more well known connect.

[@isadona59]

When they made this concert Robert is so serious cause his littlen son, Karac Pendradon, had been died in 1977 ( this concert wass in 1979) Jimy wass very intoxicated cause drogues...,and Bonzo wass near to pass away, few months later. Still is impresionant how they play. Aquiles Last Stand, from this concert is amazing.

[@darrenmiller6927]

Glad I jumped in. I was a freshman in high school in 79, and I loved that song as a kid. Physical Graffiti was my favorite Led Zeppline album. I would go in my room put on my head phones with Kashmir and do my art work. Holds up nicely. You guys are fun and beautiful reactors! Much love from California.

[@PeterTea]

My favorite Led Zeppelin song is usually the last one I listened too. Still, check out Stairway to Heaven, When the Levee Breaks, Whole Lotta Love or anything really. It doesn’t get any better than this.

[@popcornentertainment5115]

Ohhhhh yeahh 😍😍

[@kostispap3293]

Best Rock Band Ever...

[@caracoidwren944]

Really wish you guys would do the studio version of the song with lyrics. The lyrics just take you away on the journey he's going through. And the studio version is truly the best. You miss so much in the live versions, I don't understand why so many people recommend them. Kashmir is a powerful song and so much of that is barley detectable in the live version. I think the live versions are for people who want to see the band perform more than listen to the music itself.

[@TweedSuit]

Your reaction at 0:57 is perfectly normal when hearing Led Zep for the first time. Welcome to the club.

[@Prone2Thrill]

GOATS of R&R - If you like the middle-eastern vibes on this you NEED to hear them when Page/Plant made an album together and redid 5 songs with Egyptian band as well as an orchestra. It's amazing. I recommend Irvine Meadows Amphitheater - Kashmir. Audio is great and IMO despite missing JPJ and Bonham RIP it's Page and Plant at their peak.

[@robertj5881]

The name Cashmere came as they were discussing a mythical far away place. The lyrics were actually about a trip that the singer and the guitarist took through morocco in a land rover for an interesting adventure. I’m sure you noticed, especially in the ending stanza where each ascending riff ended bubbling over in a volcano of drums. As you go through your Led Zeppelin experience you’ll note how astonishing he was as a drummer. He died a little more than a year after they made this video. the bass player/keyboard player is one of the most amazing musicians in music history. In terms of what they look like, I’m sure you’ll discover everything from an appearance just after New Year’s Day 1970 with an entire concert available and all the way through. You will have an amazing adventure rolling into this band

[@1953jazzman]

Watching the excitement and joy of your discovery of Led Zeppelin warmed my old heart! :)

[@chassetterfield9559]

Although the track is suffused with 'Middle Eastern' rhythms, played by John - Paul Jones, originally on a mellotron, & here on the Yamaha GX-1, and named 'Kashmir', this track was actually written on a road trip through the Sahara, on the way to a music festival in, if I remember correctly Timbuktu.

There are some Led Zeppelin songs that are more enjoyable in studio that live, this is one of them, specially the eastern sounds of the keys in the background.
