Led Zeppelin "Rock and Roll" LIVE (First Time Reaction)

[@L33Reacts]

What is your personal favorite Led Zepplin track? I can't pick! They're all so good! That's not fair, man!

[@Hartlor_Tayley]

I can’t say but I remember my gf loved Dancing Days. Great live version on How the West was Won.

[@marthagavey9321]

❤❤still Whole Lotta Love gets me every time!🎉 You're right not fair!😮

[@sicotshit7068]

I can pick my 2 favorite live performances, but it’s to hard to pick favorite songs. My 2 favorite lives MSG Since I’ve Been Loving You, & Earls Court May 25,1975 InMy Time Of Dying. There’s 2 versions of In My Time Of Dying, from the 24th & the 25th, I love the 25th more.

[@annuvynarawn392]

whichever one I happening to be listening to. I can't choose.

[@ryanr5319]

Achilles Last Stand. 😊 proggy Zep...sorta. But mainly for the Pagey guitar army and Bonzo's all-around tasty taps.

[@normanmiller604]

The drumming at the end of this song is why they could never replace Bonham. Awesome power.

[@joannparker1977]

Wow. I grew up with these guys. They are electric! Robert Plant used to live here in Austin for several years. My daughter, then a sophomore at UT, ran into Robert Plant while walking down the street. They stopped to wait to cross the street. They exchanged pleasantries. Like "How's your day going?" That kind of stuff. My daughter was only 20 back then but she knew exactly who he was. Of course, she did not ask for his autograph. Let him be him. Be a regular person. That's my daughter. ❤

[@Bluewizard7131]

Page is incredible live! Always improvising.

[@cheripetty1805]

I was 14 in 1976 when I attended the Theatrical Release of the Band's gift to their Fans, viewing LED ZEPPELIN THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME (IN CONCERT...AND BEYOND!) It changed my Life FOREVER! I've since viewed it at LEAST 500 TIMES! Can't wait for the new IMAX RELEASE: "BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN" In selected theaters, FEB 7!!

[@juliemanarin4127]

I was 16! Was my favorite band since 1970!!

[@ROUGHSEES]

Jimmy is one of the best of all time. He completely encapsulates what every guitarist strives to be!

[@xmathmanx]

Unless they wanted to depart from the traditions of blues guitar, of course, and try something creative

[@johncarr7198]

Love your reaction btw. As an old 73 yr old guy, it’s a thrill watching you discover music that I witnessed when it first came out. Saw many of them live.

[@juliemanarin4127]

They were STUNNING live!

[@stewpot6998]

The best snare drum in drumming history.

[@marthagavey9321]

❤🎶❤saw them in '71 in Kitchener Ontario, hooked!! 🥰🎉🎉

[@shirleybhs9zd6li5i]

I agree I like Robert's studio version vocals better, this is one of my favorite songs. These artists are at the top of their game, so great. Wonderful pick, FD , thanks. Great commentary, L33, never too much Zeppelin. Blessings all.

[@bowtiefidenine]

Thanks for more Led Zeppelin ❤

[@fineasfogg1461]

JIMMY❤❤❤ Robert is the perfect front man and he's pretty 😍. This was great fun to watch together

[@juliemanarin4127]

They were the best looking band AND the most talented!!

[@johncarr7198]

1971. I was 19 , this album just came out saw them live in Syracuse ny. Jimmy played guitar with violin bow Watch them do this live, they were at the top of their form Acid was great and so were they. Memories

[@jamesscura7122]

When you watch this movie, you shake your head in disbelief to think they considered this show mediocre. They'd toured Europe first before two American legs. This is one of the last two shows. They were exhausted. Can you imagine when they were ON ?

[@Octavian7771]

Jimmy had such a wicked tone. It sounds like he's channeling some dark spirit!

[@alan73795]

I was fortunate enough to see them on their Presence tour (1977). Opened with "The Song Remains The Same"; closed with a blazing "Rock And Roll"; 3+ hours of pure Zeppelin magic in between (including "Trampled Under Foot", "Going To California" and "Kashmir").

[@stevepas1]

I was there❤ Opening song for the show and went right into next song gallows pole❤

[@davidwolf4677]

Celebration Day

[@juliemanarin4127]

Yes Celebration Day ​@davidwolf4677

[@dawntucker5052]

This was so much fun ❤ i was hoping for a double play.

[@bobschenkel7921]

ROCK GODS being ROCK GODS!

[@davidwolf4677]

Jimmy looks like the Merlin of Rock & Roll.

[@JeffKokernak]

You must react to DAZED AND CONFUSED from this concert. 28 plus minutes of pure magic

[@juliemanarin4127]

Omg yes!

[@captainsatellite2112]

Fond high school memories of getting stoned with friends and watching the entire Song Remains the Same film or Pink Floyd at Pompeii at the midnight movie. First great Jimmy solo of the movie.

[@ryanr5319]

Love the fact this is the concert opener. 'Welcome to our little rock show.'

[@Coquinagirl]

It was such great footage of my teenage heartthrobs. Thank you, FD!

[@fineasfogg1461]

Bonham ❤

[@dawntucker5052]

I love Led Zeppelin ❤

[@tanyaweathersby9393]

❤❤❤Robert ❤❤❤

[@AirDOGGe]

Heart also does a great cover of this track. First time I saw SONG REMAINS THE SAME I was 14 and didn't know the band too well. Parts of it seemed slow. Today I love to watch to end-to-end.

[@juliemanarin4127]

I was 16 and watched it again and again!!

[@hopeklemann1]

🌸 I read an interview with Jimmy years ago that talked about their touring and everything... he was humble when he said this but he said that he always found it surprising but they had sold out every single venue during each tour just as the tickets went on sale over and over and over again

[@nikosalmpanis-ty3jt]

Black Sabbath,Led Zeppelin,Deep Purple the holy triad of rock music🤘

[@sicotshit7068]

With Led Zeppelin in the number one spot.

[@mohammedjamil2277]

​@@sicotshit7068Fact 😊

[@corawheeler9355]

Just what i needed after a day of shuffling papers lol .... fantastic

[@madomantz]

Black dog is the first song in the album. Rock' n 'roll is the second song in their fourth album. Perfect one.

[@stevemoss7793]

He means it's the first song on "The Song Remains the Same", not LZ iv.

[@StaceyWatson-e2q]

Man. They could rock it! Bonham's drums, though!❤❤❤❤❤

[@sicotshit7068]

Songs you may know, you could always do lives of, if available, lives are never the same.

[@pt9167]

Great reaction. Do Celebration Day next. It follows right after Rock and Roll in the concert.

[@juliemanarin4127]

Yes

[@Hartlor_Tayley]

Great track

[@chrismorley5862]

robert's voice had lot a bit of both it's strength and range by the time Song Remains the Same was recorded, unfortunately, you need to see live footage from 1969-1971 only, unfortunately, to catch his voice live in top form.

[@sicotshit7068]

Their live performances are always better longer solos, with added vocals/lyrics. This song came about, because Bonham was getting frustrated trying to play Four Sticks. He took a break from that, & started pounding out this, the others jumped in. They were still recording, so they got it, & we got two songs instead of one. Immigrant song opened their concerts early on, Rock & Roll took over then. At the beginning, Bonham yells out, Alright Let’s Go!

[@southernwanderer7912]

Robert Plant's voice always knocks my socks off. On top of that, he's so sexy.

[@rocom]

Almost got a speeding ticket trying to rewind and study the drum intro lol

[@damonhines8187]

When I saw this movie back then I thought Robert's voice was strained, his range limited, but it's still a monster of a song. Drum intro from 'Keep-A Knockin' ' by Little Richard.

[@allenlocke1935]

Aw...you should have let this go right into "Celebration Day" what a party foul. Please go back and do "Celebration Day" from this movie it was absolutely 🔥

[@Piwork69]

The soundtrack does not cut away when they transition into celebration Day.

[@chrisnicol1644]

Lee... If you do not want to put out the dough, I started with the Zeppelin 'live's stuff: BBC sessions / How The West Was Won / Song Remains The Same... One great sampler....

[@brianbowman8310]

It’s a shame they only show Bonham at the end.

[@36karpatoruski]

The vocals are absolutely better on the studio, which was 1971. Plant blew his voice out mid-‘72 and never again hit THOSE notes again, while still remaining the premier rock vocalist. That’s greatness.

[@stevemoss7793]

I'm not qualified to speak as to the quality of Robert's voice, but I can definitely make out the lyrics better on the live version.

[@36karpatoruski]

@ the most recent studio remastering has vocals set further back in the recording mix than the original recording, and the live version is also recorded quite “vocals forward.”

[@hopeklemann1]

🌸 I've said it before.... if you look up rock gods in the dictionary, you'll see a picture of these guys. 🤍

[@barrycohen311]

You're a drummer, learn the roots. :-) Bonham did the opening drum riff as a homage to Little Richard's drummer on the opening to hisw "I Hear you Knockin But You Can't Come in."

[@grahamjeffries4566]

Pub band rock

[@vivasanpietro]

The payroll was stolen from that performance

[@GES8215]

Once plant started losing his range they were mediocre,
