I'm going to agree with others who have suggested the tribute to Led Zep at the Kennedy center as performed by " Heart" . I have to admit it really got me in my feels . In your discoveries in music keep in mind the era and what was going on in the world . My generations music is an anthem to the times we lived in and it was quite active. Sooo many issues and movements going on simultaneously. Knowing what was going on historically can make these songs hit differently.

[@richardfilanderer]

Very fun(ny) fact: in the early 2000s a British rock station did a poll open to the public in order to determine who the greatest drummer, greatest guitarist, greatest bassist, and greatest singer was/is. Every single member of Led Zeppelin was voted #1 lmao.

Mug, at the time the song was written, it had a lot of different meanings, please do not forget, it was the time of the Cold War. We here in Europe never knew if we would see the next day. Nuclear bombing was like the sword of Damocles hanging over our heads. Some took drugs to forget the thread, others found other ways to blend out the fear, we lived in.

This was everything going on in those late 60s and early 70s. The constant threat of nuclear war, the "Peace not War" movement, the materialism and young people longing for a better future. Sadly, the newer generations are turning into selfish snowflakes that would look down on what we were all about. We were about letting everyone be themselves, not looking down on people that think differently. There was no such thing as cancel culture!

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

Jimmy Page was a guitar legend from back in the 60's and his guitar work is completely different is tone and sound than Eddie Van Halen. Both are at the top of the pantheon of rock guitarists but Jimmy had a much more blues background to his music. One other note about the solo, he played it different all of the time so he was really just noodling around the melody. Much more fun when you aren't sure where you are going when the solo starts each time.

[@tannonwraith4692]

Every day is a good day to GET THE LED OUT! Your attempt in the first two minute's to summarize what you were listening tru was hilarious!. Led Zeppelin is the penultimate in Rock/Fusion, I've been listening to them my my entire life and of course I was inspired by them musically, John Bonham is my spirit animal. You will spend the rest of your life trying to understand Led Zeppelin, the catalog and complexity of their music is almost unfathomable and we're not even taking solo material... I am sure you will continue to enjoy this rabbit hole. Always listen to the studio first and always the original before a cover.

[@greenbluemonkey]

I was around when all the great music from the early seventies came around. But I was brought up religiously, and was literally afraid to even listen to bands like Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, Alice Cooper, Black Sabbath, because of all the religious propaganda about the music being Satanic. Religion is a scourge. I finally was able to appreciate these bands after i moved out, went to college, and shed my old prejudices.

It's referred to as a "double neck" guitar, with 12 strings on the upper neck and 6 strings on the lower neck.

[@glenngotling657]

The guitarist is Jimmy Page (who also wrote the song) - he is considered one of the best guitarist of all time. This was released on their 4th album in the early 70's. Yep, saw them live twice - not sure of the exact dates but they were both in summer months - one in 69/70 and the other 2 or 3 years later.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

When you say that Jimmy wrote the song, don’t forget to mention that Robert Plant wrote the lyrics. ,most people don’t understand the difference between “writing a song”….in other words creating the melody and chordal structure, and writing the lyrics to match the melody. Jimmy didn’t write lyrics.

[@targetshootr]

We saw them a couple of times. They were so good they would sell out stadiums without any opening bands and play for 3 or more hours. The lyrics to a lot of their songs are vague on purpose so everyone could interpret them however they want.

[@TheDivayenta]

This song is musically and to some extent lyrically based on old English folk songs. Very beautiful. My take on the title: she’s so rich and pampered she could buy a stairway to Heaven. Personally, I’ll take the Highway to hell that AC/DC offers us!! 😊

[@leahdoerr731]

[@my4mainecoons338]

My heart sank when you stopped at the beginning of the guitar solo but at least you recognized the mistake and went back. I've never heard of this song being sacrilegious. "Sometimes words have two meanings" is just that. People say something but mean something else.

[@bradgordon3760]

As great as Eddie Van Halen was he wishes he could be Jimmy Page the true compositional master. Also note, the double neck guitar you see. The upper is a 12 string for full rhythms and the lower is the solo machine.

[@dickcnormis1444]

EVH never composed a song close to this or The Rain Song, Kashmir,etc. Yeah he was a clean player, had technique, but what epic songs did he ever write. Page is hands down the better composer and musician.

They played from the late 60’s to 1980 when the drummer died. They were the greatest.

News came in the John Bonham had died.. And of course the rest of Tour was canceled along with Zeppelin.. I believe the UK saw the tour of" In through the outdoor " but it never got to Chicago not sure if any other us cities got to see them... So many great songs..

I'm talking about Mood

[@1960rlv]

The song is esoteric in nature, like a poem left open to interpretation. I first heard this song around 1974. We didn’t much care what the lyrics meant but it was always the last song played at dj’d event, a dance etc. Every Friday and Saturday night it was the last song played at the skating rink, and was a couples “moonlight” skate. Which was awesome because it was a long song and at 15 years old skating with a girlfriend was the peak, the longer the better. All these years later the song means something different to me, the lady in the song is Lady Liberty and unfortunately everything that glitters is not gold.

I like your real reaction. Many consider this the best rock and roll song ever. For 80s guitar solos, there are some very good ones BUT those guitarists are trying to copy the 60/70 guitarists tgat inspired them to play. Van Halen, Ray Vaughn, Knopler, all consider the rock gods as Hendrix, Page, Clapton and Beck.

[@as7326]

For a good insight into guitar, watch the documentary "It's About to Get Loud" featuring Jimmy Page, Edge, and Jack White. It'll give you a lot of insight into the craft and influences on guitar legends.

[@turnsufficient4971]

It's a double necked electric guitar - 12 strings on top and 6 strings on the bottom guitar. Jimmy Page had it custom made by Gibson in 1970, bc those guitars were out of production at the time. Jimmy starts out on the 6 string, as the song progresses, speeds up and thickens musically - he switches to the 12 string and all the way to the "farfare" chords -- just prior to the guitar solo. For the solo, he switches to the 6 string for that part -- then coming out of the solo --- when they're rocking hard --- he switches back to the 12 string-- for the outro jam section. You're right about the double entandre stuff. This is about Bonzo, Robert and Jimmy signing a pact with the Devil -- back in 1968. John Paul Jones -- the bass player, keyboardist, bass pedals, Mellotron didn't sign the Faustian Pact with the Devil. He remained unscathed during the Led Zeppelin years. Robert and Bonzo (and Page) all paid a heavy price for it. Robert has distanced himself from this song --- over the last few decades. Jimmy Page laughs and denies the Satanic message and connection --- but that what a proper Satanist does --- you keep hush about it. John Bonzo Bonham paid with his life, on Sept 25th,1980. It's sad, bc we miss him and he was getting better and better at his craft. They did not continue without him. Robert Plant almost became crippled from a car crash, in which his wife was almost killed in , in Aug of 1975. Plant's son, Karac, died on July 26th, 1977, which abruptly ended Led Zeppelin's mammoth record breaking 1977 US tour.

[@turnsufficient4971]

The internet meanings are wrong for 98% of time. It's not about society or material possessions or about a specific woman at all. That description you found is absolute garbage to the core. The first line is about people who think they see something (or hear something in words or lyrics), but those internet explanations are bunk. "Your stairway lies on the whispering wind..." the stairway is non-existent bc you can't walk on the wind -- LOL. This song was recorded on either July 27th, 28th or 29th, 1973 at Madison Square Garden. It's not the 1980s 🙂🙌 There is a very dark meaning to this song. The hints are all over the place in the lyrics. Forests, the Piper, the May Queen, some times words have two meaning --- In a tree by the brook, there's a song bird who sings 'Some times all of our thoughts are misgiven' -- "And, I think you can see that..." He sings. They absolutely worshipped the old blues guys from the 19teens, up through the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s -- they loved Robert Johnson --- he went to the Crossroads in Clarksdale, Mississippi, on a full moon and there he met Legba --- who taught RJ how to sing and tuned his guitar for him and taught him to play --- in exchange for his soul. Johnny Shines, the blues artist, who often saw Robert Johnson, and traveled with him ,- told the story. The story goes: Robert was playing at the juke joint -- he borrowed a guitar from someone and tried to perform. It was awful --- according to Shines. Johnson got booed off the stage. Johnny Shines crossed paths again with Johnson a few months later --- and Johnson was playing his guitar and singing better than anyone he had ever seen --- according to Shines video taped interview. In 1936, Robert did two prolific recoding sessions, which are unmatched -- by any of his peers. Many Rock and Roll artists in the 1960s picked up on these recordings -- talk about how beautifully haunting many of Johnson's songs were. Fast forward to your description here --- you pretty much have been talking about double entandre and (double talk) in Led Zeppelin's lyrics -- and keep hinting to -- something isn't quite what it seems here -- and the ominous, melancholy, yet kind of energetic jovialness that this performance is. You nailed it cold -- you got the vibe brother ! This song is not what it preaches on its face at all. It's all good. I have no problems with Legba or Scratch. I'm just bringing some real here to this channel. I can respect and indulge all peoples beliefs. These guys changed music -- they were the best musicians of the 1970s and many still say - to today --' that they were each the best at their craft, although the bass/keyboard player doesn't get as much recognition as he deserves --- hmmmm, I wonder. The music media attacked them and their albums -- and for the most part insulted their albums and songs -- all throughout the 1970s, but yet -- Led Zeppelin outpaced the sales of tickets and albums of even Elvis Presley. They took it to the people with very little help from the press. They were only nominated for a few Grammys, but not for their insanely awesome music and songs, but for a few albums covers only 😂🤣🤣🤣 This song is the most played song in radio music history and the most requested song on commercial radio. This album is one of the best selling albums of all time -- and the album had no official title and the name Led Zeppelin didn't appear anything on the album cover, inner folder or record sleeve --- LOL. They fought with their record company for months, bc they record company called it "commercial suicide" for not listed the name Led Zeppelin anywhere...and again --- it ends up selling the most out of their catalog --- LMAO And it's one of the best selling albums of all time 😅 Go figure. These guys were not cheesy, or half assed about anything. They played their shows like it was last night of all of their lives. Take what I said above to the bank. Anyone can attempt to counterpunch these two comments in the future, but you're only shadowboxing. Over and out... So Mote Be It

Mug, I haven't been on here as much, scrambling for work and such, but yeah you're close, that's called a double-neck guitar, and they became a phenomenon with rock stars in the 70s but the thing is these guys actually use them for a real purpose. When you have a normal guitar, and you are good and no your instrument inside and out, you can make that thing do 8 billion different things. You can switch between the neck and the bridge pickups. You can roll off the tone control, this will make it more trouble or more Bass. You can adjust the volume for any given pick up configuration with another knob on the guitar, you could have a whammy bar, and then of course you have all the effects pedals before it even goes into the amp and then of course you have all the amp settings but here's the deal ... Especially in a song that is as long and it as ambitious as this, you know if you really want to get far afield even outside the parameters of making your instrument do whatever you want, you would have to like switch out guitars and stuff so once these guys had enough Prestige and money, they would commission people to craft these double-neck guitars for them and so one of the next has one set of pickups and characteristics in action and really anything you want, and the other has a different one. So you can switch back and forth between them and it just gives you so much more versatility while you are performing.

The lighting is dark so they could all smoke a bowl. 😂

This Led Zeppelin performance is 1973, so best solos of the 70's and 80's would be great! Van Halen came out in 1978

[@tomthumb4142]

Hi...Nothing dark about the song it's a song of hope...As a Christian you know that gold and riches can't buy your way into Heaven...In my opinion that's simply what the song is all about...Peace man.

[@elioli123]

It's really not a Christian conspiracy. It's called backward masking. I don't think it was intentionally put there by Led Zeppelin, but a result of the satanic influence going on behind the scenes. I had heard about it, but never took it seriously until after I became a Christian. I took that song, recorded it on my reel to reel tape, flipped it around and played it backwards. Though somewhat distorted, you can definitely hear phrases like. "Glory glory. Here's to my sweet Satan." "He will give you 666" and others that I can't recall at the moment. It was shocking to me, being a musician and song writer as well. I had just recently cut a demo tape myself. There was one particular song I had written on that tape, where I felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand up when I had finished it. It was creepy. I took my own song and played it backward and found that it also had phrases in it that I know I did not put there intentionally; phrases like "Sleep now child" "Who is nice? My Nick is" "Hurry man my Nick will lick it" "Open up my Spanish coffin" References to an old man etc... Some of this was in Spanish and some in English. I am Hispanic. I was even more shocked than with Stairway to Heaven. I played this for a Christian friend of mine. When they heard all this talk about Nick, they told me that Nick was an old English term for the devil. Well I happened to have a very old Webster's exhaustive dictionary (It's not in the newer abridged versions) and looked it up. Sure enough, it was right there, as was the phrase, "sometimes referred to as "old Nick or old man." So this was no longer a conspiracy for me. I saw this for myself. I didn't even know this stuff about Nick or Old man referencing the devil, yet there it was in my own music. The spirit realm is real. It's not a joke.

Zeppelin GOATs!!

[@Rcasca1]

This came out in the Early 70's

[@hunter1961100]

This was night 54 of the US tour, 1973 probably the greatest live concert ever recorded check out since I’ve been loving you and the song remains the same rain song recorded on the same night

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

That's not Eddie Van Halen (a different band). It's Jimmy Page playing lead guitar. Also, the song doesn't have to "mean" anything. You can interpret it any way you like. Robert Plant (singer) said that it was a song of hope.

[@norahdenovan8658]

That was a Good solo!!!!!

[@davidlay1782]

" “Stairway” is seemingly a song about the inevitability of death that’s really a song about fear but actually a song about greed… or something… "

[@willbernstein6596]

Van Halen saw Jimmy Page play "Heartbreaker" live and saw him playing without picking the notes, just hammering and pulling off... That's where Van Halen figured out he could play "Eruption" without picking... Jimmy was an innovator. His ability to switch seamlessly between harmonic minors and blues solo scales is other-worldly. He's the greatest guitarist of all time IMO (2 & 3 are Hendrix and Jerry Garcia in no particular order). He went for it. Always. Plant's blistering vocals are other worldly. JPJ's flute synth is etherial and set the tone of "The Piper", not to mention he's playing the bass with his feet.... this is a call to action to AVOID the "Pied Piper," as it is a metaphor for the Black Plague that so many suffered from. "Yes, there are two paths you can go by, buy in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on." Not to mention, Bonzo is the greatest drummer of all time.

[@judgildea]

Lmao...Led Zeppelin would be crazy pissed that you even mentioned Van Halen..

[@Mace91]

The guitars in "Sing for the Moment" are from Aerosmith's "Dream On". If you don't know anything about them then get on it, Aerosmith are rock icons. Not necessarily my cup of tea but I still know all of their music. That's how iconic they are.

[@ms.newyawkeri7559]

The premise of the song, released in 1971, is you spend your life collecting materialistic possessions which you can't take with you and won't help you buy your way into Heaven. Listen to Heart at The Kennedy Center honoring Led Zeppelin

[@bobbissell2910]

GOAT JIMMY PAGE

[@bradwilliams2081]

The double neck guitar...12 strings on the top and 6 strings on the bottom. The song itself is open to interpretation.

[@briarpatch720]

lol, people have been debating the meaning to this song for over 50 years

[@philhunter9134]

This was the early 70’s.

Check out Whole Lotta Love from the 1973 Madison Square Garden Garden concert

[@williamhunt8451]

That is one of the holy trinity, Jimmy page ,Jeff beck,and Eric Clapton

[@debunkthelies]

You are probably correct in that the song is covered in darkness, insofar as much of the band’s activities were influenced by HEAVY narcotics, acid, heroine, etc, and that is a pristine playground for demonic spirits and the occult to enter and control a man’s soul. There is no man alive who can perform and entertain at that level for hours on end without the influence of chemicals, especially considering the shear intensity of that style of music. Despite their proclivities, they are considered and remain one of, if not the most talented and influential bands of all time. It has been argued that each of its members are of the very best at their skill(s) and that together possibly represent the most consummate of bands that have ever graced the stage. I didn’t grow up with an ear or liking for rock or heavy metal, but I do have an ear for qualifying musical talent and musicianship, and LZ is certainly top tier of all time in that particular genre, as their musical talent in my opinion is variably unmatched. Talent is off the charts, from bass to lead guitarists, to drummer and lead vocals/harmonica, not to mention charisma,,,they are a phenomenal band whether you love or hate their brand or style.

[@traci3422]

Stairway to Heaven is the #1 played song on Classic Rock stations and it has been this way for years. It is considered a Rock masterpiece. One of the most interesting videos to watch to learn about the song and the musical transitions is by Jimmy Page (guitarist & music composer) as he explains the intent of what they were doing. He wanted layers that build to a crescendo. I actually like that the lyrics are obtuse and open for interpretation; it’s pretty darn good for a 21 yr old to write a song that has had over 50 yrs longevity that people are still talking about. Look forward to more LZ reactions. Also, please include guitar solos from 1970s: there were some awesome solos from Lynyrd Skynyrd Free Bird, Hendrix Voodoo Chile, Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb, Chicago 25 or 6 to 4, Eagles Hotel California and LZ Since I’ve Been Loving You to name a few. Thank you for your reaction❤

[@taxiscratcher5935]

Robert Plant went out on his own, and IMO one of his best solo songs was Big Log...the acustic guitar was just mesmerizing.

[@davidbrown5688]

Try guitar solo's of the 70's first, lol. The group UFO wrote a song titled "Rock Bottom" and featured an up and coming guitarist named Michael Schenker. The solo on the studio recording is phenomenal!!!!!!!!!!! You will not be disappointed my friend!!!

[@chlupl]

I have two points of thought regarding messaging and especially "that's of the devil" mentality in some circles. Certainly, there is a lot of art and media that has very negative and perhaps evil focus, but I find many ultimately positive songs often lumped into "oh that's evil". First point: sometimes the uncomfortable feeling we sense is darkness being exposed (sometimes societal and sometimes personal). It is a message being put out that makes us face ourselves. I think many songs are put out that should be a message if growth and repentance, but are taken as something to be avoided because it makes us uncomfortable. Second, I'm Christian, and not the universalist every path leads to the same place kind. That said, I find the Gospel to be written both in words, and in Creation. If God's laws are present in Natural law, then it would make sense that many societies or religions do have a lot of myths, parables, and lessons that they did observe even without getting the full meaning. References in the song may seem pagan or dark, but not all myths are counter to good. The seasons change and every year has a death and rebirth of the natural order. Is that not a micro presentation of the ultimate death and rebirth that we have when becoming Christian, to the death and resurrection of Christ, and to the death we all see before us that leads to rebirth into the eventual.

I used to believe about the back masking to but when you listen to the lyrics it talks about how the lady was trying to buy her way to heaven.
