Same thing. Bonham died when I was in 8th grade. I found out on the way home from school. A friend's older sister called out from the window of their house and told us while we were walking by and talking. She was crying. We were devastated and didn't believe her or thought she must've been wrong. 8th grade, 13 years old, all devastated. Our older siblings had plans to see Zep's next North American tour. Then, no one was ever going to see them tour again. Funny how young we were when their music hooked us. I was lucky that I was really into Tolkien at the time, too. I was deep into both, and they complemented each other in extraordinary ways. Absolutely singular mystical time, music, and literature.

Robert Plant, lead vocals wrote the lyrics, and harmonica, John Paul Jones, bass and keyboards, arranged a lot of the music, John Bonham “Bonzo”, drums, best ever, and Jimmy Page, lead guitar,and creator of the band, wrote the music, and producer. I would suggest you react to “You Shook Me” from their first album. Straight blues.

Although Led Zeppelin was a rock band, the best ever, they drew heavily from blues, especially early in their career, although they also incorporated other genres into their music (soul, funk, folk, rockabilly, etc.). They were certainly no "one trick pony". If you want to hear more of their blues tunes, I suggest that you go back to albums 1 and 2. A few from album 1 (recorded in 1968, dropped in 1969) include You Shook Me, I Can't Quit You Baby and How Many More Times. A few from album 2 (recorded and dropped in 1969) include Whole Lotta Love, The Lemon Song, Bring it on Home. Both albums 1 and 2 were recorded when the guys' ages ranged from just 19-24. Quite amazing, obviously very gifted guys and remember, no auto tune back then. What's cool about listening to studio versions is hearing the magic of Jimmy Page (guitarist) as producer. Enjoyed your reaction and looking forward to hearing more. Thanks.

John Bonham was a once in a lifetime talent that passed way too soon. I grew up in the Caribbean in the sixties and seventies. Many of my friends went to school in England and they would bring these bands like zeppelin and Floyd back on home. These British bands were deeply influenced by the blues players like Muddy Waters and Leadbelly from the American south. Pink Floyd actually took their name from two black musicians from the Deep South. What an amazing musical journey to enjoy.

Alas, they broke up in 1980 when the drummer drank 40 shots of vodka, threw up, and sofficated on his vomit. The rest are still alive. You should defintly check this song out from Madison Square Garden in 1973 live. They bring a whole new deminsion to their songs live.

Led Zeppelin was considered hard rock/heavy blues but they played a variety of styles. Guitarist Jimmy Page did that solo in one take. You mentioned James Brown, they did a playful take on James' style with a song called "The Crunge". Most people hate it but I think it's fun and they weren't making fun of James Brown, they were just being silly and having a good time in the studio that day. If you want to stick to a more serious style, try some funk with their song "Trampled Under Foot". Another blues song that I personally consider better than this is "Tea For One". It is the most heart-wrenching, hard, blues song. It hardly ever gets reacted to so I hope you consider it. Also, if you select any of these, please listen to the studio first - as you heard here - the production is second to none.

You guys are gifted with musical knowledge, being fair and honest in your assessments, - and funny! I just recently found your site and now a fan as well. Led Zep is a real treat and obviously one of the all-time greatest. I know you've done many reviews of LZ albums since this review, so I know you really appreciate them. "Since I've Been Loving You", is one of many, of their great tunes and certainly a favorite of mine. LZ was officially my first live concert in Aug '69, upstate NY, a week after Woodstock. I had just turned 17. I think it may have been on their first tour of the US. They were young & new, and made a huge impression with their debut album - which is still my favorite album by them, regardless the wonderful work they've done afterward. Hard to really dislike anything they've done musically. Thank you Airplay Beats.

Led Zep quit as a group in 1980 after the drummer, John Bonham, died. Except for a few re-union shows, they've pretty much gone their separate ways. They were the very definition of Rock Stars in 70s. Next rec: "Good Times, Bad Times". Their first song on the first side of their first album. Hit the world like a punch in the face in 1968. Best song off that album IMO is "Dazed and Confused", another blues rock banger.

It was a kaleidoscope wheel that showed all kinds of different pics of the band. This song changed my world. REAL ROCK MUSIC. All my friends were deep in the glam rock trend. It was the eighties. Zeppelin saved me from that terrible music. I never get tired of this song. For all the greatness that is LZ, this song for me is the top of the mountain.

Bonzo died in Sept 1980. At Jimmy Page's house. He'd been drinking heavily all day. They were rehearsing for their upcoming tour. He hated touring. Anyway, they put him to bed and found him dead in the morning. JPJ found him. That moment was the end of LZ and they all knew it. They reunited for a one-time only in 2007 in London. There were 20 million requests for tickets for 20,000 seats. Check it out. Bonzo's son Jason is playing his dad's drums. Gotta see it!
