This episode analyzes Led Zeppelin’s track, “Bring it on Home” a blues “sandwich” which closes the album
Led Zeppelin II from 1969. During the intro to this video I demonstrate the epic guitar riff and verse guitar
figures as three overdubs just like Jimmy Page played on the track: The main theme, the main theme
doubled with the harmony part, and the octave up version of the main theme. Disclosure: That is me
playing the guitar riffs live against a KZbin backing track. I’m using my 1970/72 Les Paul into a Bogner
gain pedal into my Fender Deluxe Reverb Amp.
In this episode I discuss: 1. the origins of the blues track (Willie Dixon composer, Sony Boy Williamson II
recording artist; 2. The mindset of how to stay in the groove while playing the blues figure (it’s about a
train ride and you have to keep steadily chugging through the figure); 3. the great Jimmy Page riffs that sit
in between the blues bookends; 4. I compare the blues figure from Sonny Boy Williamson’s recording to
Led Zeppelin studio version through to my favorite Led Zeppelin live version (LA Forum Sept. 4, 1970 “Live
on Blueberry Hill”); 5. I also mention the greatest riff of all on this song is John Bonham’s opening double
snare hit! Has anyone ever said more with less musically?
This episode wraps up my journey through Led Zeppelin II. I have grown so much by bringing this
reassessment of this music from my childhood to you. I’m so in love with this material I plan to play this
album in local pubs live just to share it with people as soon as possible. From here I will pick some other
great artists to start analyzing. Please give me as many suggestions as you can. And, of course, please
like, subscribe and share this content. My ability to continue to present these videos requires the support
of my camera guy and editor (I’m no good at those things). Anything we can do to build a base here will
help me keep it going!
Stemming from my 40+ years as a professional musician and composer as well as being a passionate
musicologist, I bring a classical and historical perspective to my love of rock music by analyzing and
playing some of the most iconic music of all time. At the heart of all my videos is my enthusiasm, my thirst
for understanding and a gift for sharing the simple to sublime with others. Music and people are my life.
Whether you’re a guitar player, musician, songwriter or just a music enthusiast, I’m sure you will find
something in these videos to inspire you and make you smile.
