I LISTENED TO THE FULL ALBUM! Led Zeppelin - When the Levee Breaks

[@johnmorgan7262]

1971. No computer, no autotune, all talent.

[@dadmateryn8092]

Don't look at this deeply. The song is literal. Written in 1929 by Memphis Minnie about the great Mississippi flood of 1927.

[@stephenmaclean3422]

But it’s also so much greater because it resonates metaphorically as well. As in “Since I’ve been loving you” when he sings “All my tears, they fall like rain”, rain as a metaphor for grief and the levee as a metaphor for the heart and the mind that will break if the tearful grieving continues.

[@CorwinPatrick]

@@stephenmaclean3422 Agreed. Picking a "literal" song and placing it into the album to support the metaphorical narrative is part of the Art of the Album. Edit: Also, remember that this is not a note for note cover of the original. The arrangement they chose is part of it.

The rhythm section owns this song. Thunderous drums and that ominous, relentless bass line...damn.😮

[@helenespaulding7562]

Agreed. Incredible bass work by Jonesy

[@helenespaulding7562]

The drum sound on this song is one of the most famous in rock history. The drum sound is HUGE. Recorded in an old country house ( Headley Grange) where they were working on the album. The drums were set up in a stairwell several stories high which led to a huge reverb on the drums. Jimmy and his sound engineer placed mics at several levels going up the stairs to capture that reverb. Iconic sound And incredible harmonica from Robert.

[@yogibarista2818]

Why does this myth continue to persist? Yes, the drums were recorded there using 2 microphones, but the huge reverb sound had nothing to do with the location, and everything to do a binson echorec tape delay unit that was used in the recording by the sound engineer - Andy Johns. There are KZbin interviews with Johns where he describes the process he used.

[@georgehofgren6123]

I think i've seen pics of bonzo's drums set in the bottom of the stairwell....

[@yogibarista2818]

@@georgehofgren6123 Yes - and they were positioned there - but the huge echo effect you hear is actually artificial, according to the engineer who recorded it - Rick Beato has a video dedicated to it, which includes footage of Andy Johns detailing his use of an echorec on the drums.

[@lyndoncmp5751]

@yogibarista2818 "Why does this myth continue to persist" Because Jimmy Page is actually on film at the bottom of the stairwell at Headley Grange clapping his hands and talking about how the echo gave it that ambience. Bonham's reverb on his SNARE drum was indeed partly because of the reverb coming off the walls. The Binson Echorec was also used. So it was actually a bit of both.

[@hape3778]

I remember reading somewhere that this song was recorded at a (slightly) faster tempo and then slowed down for the final album version. I don't know if this is true either, but based on that massive - and almost mythical - sound, I just might believe this myth...

1971 living in Pakistan. American teenagers would get together with stereo systems and large speakers - a party sometimes on someone's roof. Someone shows up with Led albums and off we go. Led was the standard - we all knew this. Other bands would come along with a song or two. Led had full albums that always worked. I've listened to Levee probably 500 times since my teen years - it's beyond magic. Something was laid down on those tracks that continues to live. Fun to watch a new generation grasping to figure out what they are hearing and feeling.

Sometimes you look for more meaning in the lyrics than really exists. Don't over complicate things. Zeppelin started as a band deep with Blues standards. This song is nothing but a remake...giving a nod to those coming before. Now...if you want to become impressed...listen to the original 1929 recording and see how they made it better by highlighting the drum and bass. It just grooves. By far the best recording on this album.

My point...is she was trying to tie the lyrics to prior songs and create context that simply doesn't exist. Same as she did with Going To California. Robert has discussed their songs quite openly

[@patrickmcevoy5080]

Don't UNDER-complicate things. This song is real AND metaphorical, because the original writers meant it that way. You are somehow trying to credit them, and yet undervaluing their skill. And then Zep completely transformed the musical soundscape from the original, giving it an urgency and forlorn sadness all their own. And yes, they used it because it was connected to their overall thread of this album.

The best recorded song on the the best Rock album ever recorded. Hands down. You feel like you are swirling down into a descending whirlpool at the end of it. There is nothing "metal" about this. It's all Blues. Robert's singing and harmonica performance were HOF on this song. Bonham's drums are earth shattering. They were the GOATs of the 70's and in some ways of all time.

[@sicotshit7068]

To start with, Bonham’s drumming was recorded at Headley Grange, his drum kit was set up in the dramatic entrance & staircase. Some microphones were hung from different levels, & I believe some reverb was done. Many have tried to duplicate this amazing drum sound, but nobody has been able to. It not only takes the where & how, but the magnificent drumming of the greatest drummer ever, John Henry (Bonzo) Bonham. Robert was playing the harmonica, (which he’s excellent at), wish he played it more often. These guys loved the Mississippi Delta, & the Chicago Blues, & that’s the mention of Chicago. The ending of the song, was the chaos of the levee breaking, you could reference hurricane Katrina & New Orleans Louisiana. The flooding for miles & miles is so devastating, many lives are lost, as well as homes & businesses. This song is about the horrific flood of 1927. I highly recommend you do each album, because all their music is absolutely amazing, you could skip CODA. CODA was an album they were contracted to do, but Bonham passed away, it’s songs they discarded so not the greatest. You really seemed to love doing this whole album, you would really love all the others too, & we’ll be here to listen. Thank you once again for your reaction.

I was always amazed that this group, born and bred in England, somehow caught wind of American delta blues. This song retains so much of its blues base. Bonham's hard-driving drum intro sets the tone and beat for the remainder. Many of there other blues-based songs were morphed into rock & roll hits, a la Led Zeppelin style.

As mentioned by many before me in the comment section, it is a cover/reinvention of a song by “memphis Minnie” which, and I may well get the date wrong, was about the great floods of Mississippi in 1927? So with this one you may be looking too deeply into it. Having said that, I haven’t heard the original in over a decade so Robert Plant may well have added some of those deeper, cyclical meanings but I can’t say for sure. The drums were actually played faster and slowed down on the recording giving that deep heavy groove which have been sampled countless times (by a lot of hip hop artists in fact) and Plant’s harmonica just gives a fantastically dirty feel to the song. One of my all time favourite songs, I got goose bumps when you pressed play!
