Led Zeppelin - The Making of Led Zeppelin 1 - Documentary - Episode 1

[@demoskunk]

Getting my second MRI after being diagnosed with MS, I suddenly felt claustrophobic for the first time. To get through that 45 minutes, trapped in that narrow tube, I tried thinking of a calm lake, but it didn't work. Then, I started playing Led Zeppelin 1 in my head from start to finish, note for note and beat for beat. By the end the MRI, I was calm and happy. Thank you, Led Zeppelin. I look forward to episode 2, JCM. Your videos are awesome!

[@FredBloggs919]

I don’t know where you find the time to make these great episodes, JCM - top stuff!

[@paulbolcik4444]

JCM you are a fine historian, with excellent production work! And for English not being your first language, you have an excellent command of it! No um's or uh's about it & with excellent delivery. Hat's off to you as your "KZbin" videos are well worth seeing!

[@keitha.563]

Jose.... Great choice to put out before the Becoming Led Zeppelin Doc comes out. Cant wait my friend 🤘🏼✌🏼👍🏼

[@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories]

I think this one is gonna be a lot of fun. 1968 was such an exciting year to say the least! Hope you enjoy it Keith!

[@teledriver1398]

ANOTHER professional, well-researched documentary- and just when I thought your Zeppelin series was done, you create this and make me want to watch the previous videos all over again! And I always enjoy your Zeppelin-inspired original music!!

[@gregoryirwin263]

Hey JCM reallly like your intro tune good playing man

[@Bamacher59]

I'm from around Cleveland, Ohio. We had a great radio station called WMMS home of the buzzard. And a famous DJ named kid. Leo called this album the debuts of debuts. I was lucky enough to see Zeppelin twice 1975- 77 at the Richfield coliseum I love your content

[@Matthew_Eitzman]

The Richfield Coliseum was demolished. What is at the site now?

[@iancroft1447]

Which night in 77’ did U see em’-4/27 or 4/28 ?

[@iancroft1447]

Excellent Jose-Thanx & can’t wait for Part 2 !

[@tektoniks_architects]

Stellar presentation, Jose! Very timely, too! Becoming Led Zep less than 3 weeks away! TY! Ernie

[@lemonfrume]

Hey JCM - Any young fan just getting into Zeppelin who finds your channel is in for an awesome treat - and may I say how much I just enjoyed this video, keep up the outstanding work - compelling viewing as always.

[@jeremywanner4526]

I’m addicted to watching reaction videos of people only now discovering Zeppelin,something about is so fulfilling.It’s almost like rediscovering it myself for the first time.

[@brettjones4733]

I always learn something new from these vids, awesome as always 🤘 Jimmy should have got you to make becoming Led Zeppelin, can’t wait for episode 2

[@Joeinternet]

YES! Professor Zeppelin is here! I've been waiting for this one, hell I'm waiting for any video the Professor does. Great job as usual and I'm especially loving this Theme Song you did.

[@GabrielFreitas30]

Very well edited, written, produced! Epic work JCM! Thank you for everything you do!

[@michaeloneill1360]

I heard Led Zeppelin II First, approx. 27th Dec, 1969 & then sometime in early to mid January 1970 I heard Led Zeppelin I & It Hit Like a Bomb had Gone Off! It was the Most Raw & Heavy Sound I'd ever heard!

[@jeremywanner4526]

Great job as always my friend,Rock On!!!

[@DSM9]

Once again, a meticulously researched, fascinating watch. Thank you. I'd love think the members of the band - especially Jimmy Page - are aware of these superb documentaries.

[@sweetpain67]

Whoa, you’re on FIRE!!!! And completely captured the essence of it all with the opening track. 👏🔥

[@sweetpain67]

Life…of struggle.

[@sweetpain67]

This wasn’t a normal JCM video. This…was JCM staking his ground with the full throated authority, intelligence and to-the-death confidence of a hundred men, putting any commercial movie imposters to humiliating shame. 💣

[@MrDirtybear]

Nice to see Roy Harper on the poster for the Tim Rose gig at 24 mins 14 seconds, July 31 1968 when Page finally heard John Bonham properly for the first time.

[@Matthew_Eitzman]

24:14 is the way you can time stamp what you are referring to. The viewer clicks the time stamp and the video plays from that time. I would recommend 24:11 as a time stamp.

[@kocinski8734]

Another great video. Script for minutes 2 to 5 a thing of beauty!

[@Ledout-c3y]

Everything you do sounds so epic. Cheers to Jose's voice as well. Seriously ✌️

[@danielbowden6330]

Wonderful start to the story. I liked the hearing the 1968 sound in Spring. Cool to get that context for the first álbum since I wasn't around then. Can't wait for part 2.

[@geraldjenkins7719]

Great timing considering "Becoming Led Zeppelin" will premire on February 7th❤❤❤❤

[@outernationalstudios]

This is awesome!!! I can't wait for the rest!

[@Marine_Ret]

Great video JCM thanks 🙏

[@livingtribunal4110]

Got to be the best JCM video yet - REAL, HARDCORE Led Zeppelin. PURE as fuck.

[@tuglingtontugster9848]

Apt timing before the film 👍

[@Rockstardust69]

Great job again JCM bravo you are an inspiration on how to work magic on you tube thank you

[@AnnetteMay1221]

JCM! Your intros are epic!

[@lhobs9782]

JCM is a great channel. It is a great space to come and enjoy the awesome experience of Led Zeppelin brought to us by Jose. It would be so nice and appreciated if politics and political opinions be left out. Jose, a million thanks for what you are doing for Zep fans!!! Cheers!

[@joshmartin1938]

Damn JCM- loved your Gerrard Street Dreams diddy/song. Wheres the completed one? New subscriber and thumbs up bro. Great job on vid as well. So Percy/Plant got a telegram at the 3 Men in a Boat" furnishing- from Peter Grant but didn't believe it? Instead he's out on the tiles- slushing tar on the road- the road laborer nicknamed "the Singer". LOL - We are still blessed with KSHE95 Real Rock Radio. 1 of the country's 1st FM stations still at it. Thank you for this!!! Greetings from St. Louis, MO USA. Josh

[@AnthonyP73]

My first time hearing live Yardbirds - spooky how much of embryonic Zeppelin was present. No surprise that Page was yearning to take the music into new, stratospheric territory.

[@dwaynewladyka577]

This was great. I have Little Games in my music collection, but it's in mono. It shows what direction Jimmy Page was heading. I heard that Jimmy also wanted Steve Winwood to be part of his band, but he was forming Blind Faith. Cheers! ✌️

[@luvbasses5487]

That back cover photograph was taken by none other than Chris Dreja - who recently retired from music to pursue a photography career! His name is credited on the lower right corner. After learning about this quartets’ evolution so many years ago, the thing that really amazes is that it sounds (their debut album) as if they’d been together for decade. Instead it was a mere few short months. In their naivety they’d thought they made a good record and were shocked to read the scathing reviews by brain-dead, would-be journalists.

[@Alfalfa104]

Excellent stuff❤

[@JAMESGANG-f5u]

ALRIGHT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT !! 1,2 & 4 is where I started. I remember my dad telling me about how he had a paper route in 1968-69. Got his money and went to buy a new record. He’d never heard of LZ (their 1st album had just hit shelves) but he bought LZ1 solely due to the 4 guys on the back cover having long hair. 😂🤣 He gets it home, gets halfway through ‘Good Times, Bad Times’ and he’s calling all of his friends inviting them over to have their minds blown. By the end of the day the record shop was all out of LZ1 copies.

[@BradRocker]

Such and excellent composition !

[@rickm1255]

Three Week Hero is new to me, cool piece of history. Thanks JCM!

[@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories]

Thank YOU RICK! Now we'll head out for their first tour, promise to dive deep and reveal details that haven't been discussed in full :)

[@duanehall100]

Really good Jose

[@ericponce8740]

Jose, your mother is a great woman. She gave you some money to get Led-Over! Bravo.

[@geraldjenkins7719]

Oh WOW this is a new episode 😊😊😊😊

[@WelshVegan]

Hey Jose, Have you ever done a Zeppelin pilgrimage to the UK, Olympic Studios location, Bron Yr Aur, Headley Grange, and all that? Fun!

[@robertandrewhale]

Hey JCM Perhaps you could discuss the very different sound between the first vinyl editions and the subsequent digital output, The three album remaster was sourced from digital files, a source of much discussion amongst Led Zeppelin aficionados..

[@jeffreycase9497]

The audio mix is like hearing peak james jamerson and peak joe morello and peak albert king and peak Ian gillian recording themselves in ennio morricones' favorite studio

[@kadekozak4830]

Yo! Your theme songs are insane! You make these?! Can we get a making video of that?

[@Hakabas01]

6:15 that intro is so f*cking epic

[@PlatinumBlack90038]

Obs-Tweedle was a Walsall-based 1960s rock band notable for singer Robert Plant’s appearance before joining Led Zeppelin. The band also featured Bill Bonham, a cousin of future Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, on keyboards and bass guitar. The band was originally known as ‘Sounds of Three’ and later changed to ‘The Answer’ in 1966. Before Obs-Tweedle, Robert was the frontman for The Band of Joy. The correct name of the band was Obs-Tweedle, not Hobbstweedle or Hebbstweedle. I read that Robert Plant was also on salary for approximately the first 12 to 18 months of Led Zeppelin. Led Zeppelin’s first-ever rehearsal, was held on Monday, 12 August 1968, at 39 Gerrard Street in Soho, London, U.K.

[@rivereuphrates8103]

Another banger by the king 👑

[@Marine_Ret]

I have tickets for February 7th at an IMAX theater in Charlotte NC 👍🏻

[@JP-hs6ii]

The July 7, 1968 show billed as Yardbirds last concert has not been confirmed to have happened.

[@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories]

This has been the source of speculation and there are two schools of thought heren. I am on the "took place" camp :),. Hope you enjoyed the episode!

[@BigSlimMoody.247]

Beck's Bolero was recorded in '66 not '67.

[@russellfrazier8694]

Awesome!!❤❤

[@jamesmoriarty3593]

Mi primera adquisición fue un LP en vinilo “Led Zeppelin IV” en una pequeña tienda en Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, “Moebius”, en 1989. Vendían discos, libros y cómics. La tienda ya no existe, pero el disco sigue en mi poder. Lo recuerdo como si fuese ayer 🥲

[@jamesmoriarty3593]

El documental, magnífico, como siempre. 👌🏿👍🏿

[@lifelongfan07]

Wow man! Jimmy Page and Alan Holdsworth!

[@ministerofdarkness]

The album that struck the Rock N Roll anvil with the all mighty Hammer of the Gods ⚒️⚡️🎸 PLAY LOUD

[@mizapex5922]

Looks like a start to another great series….

[@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories]

I think this one is gonna be a lot of fun! Welcome aboard!

[@ericponce8740]

As for the first CD's that came out featuring Led Zeppelin music, the sound quality was poor, second and third-generation master tapes were used to put out their music on CD. Their music was re-mastered for the box set that came out in 1990.

[@SnortGravy]

Out of all your copies whatone do you consider the best sound overall?

[@howardduck2851]

Well done!!! Could that Holdsworth credit with Donovan be real? In all these decades, I’ve never heard that. Holdsworth recorded an album around this time with his Bradford hometown group Igginbottom’s Wrench.

[@MCBhangramuffin]

Ironic that Plant was living above that pub on the Beechdale estate when Jimmy discovered him, since the next big estate to the north north is the Caldmore, and that's where Rob Halford grew up.

[@howardduck2851]

There has been an urban myth, propagated in part by the singer Donovan, that Holdsworth played the fuzztone solo on Donovan's 1968 hit "Hurdy Gurdy Man", but the solo was actually played by Alan Parker. (from Wikipedia)

[@ericponce8740]

Why didn't they release 'The Train Kept A-Rollin' on vinyl?

[@thecolourrose9022]

Also its either Entwistle of Moon coming up with the name its not really confirmed multiple people say either or

[@richardheinz]

1:21. I am so sorry, but I can't help myself. Your Mom is very beautiful. The rest of your video is good, too.

[@SnortGravy]

Holy shit imagine if Dunbar joined zep. I honestly wish I could go to a different timeline where that happened

[@MCBhangramuffin]

He's literally the only other drummer I can imagine getting close to what Bonzo achieved. Page said his favourite version of the Jeff Beck Group was the early one with Dunbar on the kit, so I don't doubt he'd have enjoyed it with him in the band.

[@SnortGravy]

@MCBhangramuffin I personally like his playing way more. Such a musical drummer. The live shows with the mothers blow me away

[@14HarmonyFudgesickle]

Rock us Now.

[@FredBloggs919]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqe1cp-fqraSkJY I’m watching this until it comes on!

[@jasonstclair1329]

This is like waiting for Trump to get into office, can’t wait!!!!

[@OdysseusSSB]

Only difference is documentary might be good!!

[@stephenfisch]

Trump should be deeply honored by that comparison.

[@stephenfisch]

@OdysseusSSB, excellent point.

[@MichaelBoltonsEntireCatalog]

Hooooooo-yeh

[@ginoabeyta311]

Gross

[@grantjamieson4291]

I'm sorry but your interpretation of Zeppelin seems so literal as to degrade the interpretation of the band, Your own language is so daft that you are reading a bizarre fandom rhetoric that only exists inside your own head.

[@JCM-LedZeppelin-Stories]

I disagree with your comment. My work comes from admiration and my own journey as a dedicated musician. Ask the others here what they think. But i do thank you for watching, at least you know you don't like my presentation style. There's other channels to check out!
