Lex is absolutely right! Led Zeppelin live never played a song the same way twice. They always would go off and improv a lot of their songs and change it up live.

[@henriettaskolnick4445]

The Ocean is about how the audience looks from the stage; the people moving around are like undulating waves of water. In the lyrics, Robert sings about the girl who won his heart and how she's only 4 years old - that's a reference to his daughter, Carmen, who was 4 years old at the time.

[@juliemanarin4127]

Yes

[@bellodrade]

Excellent! On the studio version she was only three. This must be a year later. Did he keep doing that on later tours- tracking her age. That would be f-king awesome!

[@BlackHatCinephile]

Yeah, I always heard three.

[@fasteddie777666]

the lyrics are 3 years old not 4 !!!

[@briarpatch720]

@@fasteddie777666 I've seen them in concert where Plant said "she's only 6 years old..."

[@bobschenkel7921]

Y'all omitted the start where John Bonham goes "We've done four already and now we're steady. And we go one, two three, four." Happy New Year! the meaningof the song is The Ocean is the fans out on the floor of the arena, That was how Robert Plant perceived the fans.

[@ED-gf4ff]

You hit it right on target. What made Zeppelin’s live performance so legendary was the fact that they was a true live performance band. Every song totally organic, nothing studio with them. The MSG shows actually consisted of 3 nights of music. Like many of the concerts at location, they was soo huge, 1 night was not enough. Zeppelin was know for playing 3 + hour concerts which included a sit down acoustic songs. They truly gave a concert. That is why they will forever be remembered as the MIGHT LED ZEPPELIN…… Unfortunately, KZbin will never capture the true essence of this band…

[@ED-gf4ff]

Let me add an opinion to ponder 💭 The Led Zeppelin performance at London's O2 Arena in December 2007 in honour of Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun, is a reminder that for many years, promoters made all kinds of attempts to get the remaining band members on stage, and no promoter would ever consider any other musical act to play after Led Zep. I will also argue that, no band would want to.

[@fishboy91]

Most of their shows WERE ad-libbed. They prided themselves on their improvisational skills. They never played or sang a song the same way twice. A lot of their shows sometimes went 3 to 3 1/2 hours long with huge improvised sections...with vocal changes, drum solos, tempo changes, key signature changes, and elongated guitar solos. Sometimes right in the middle of a song, they would switch to a different song and then go back to the original. They employed dynamics. They believed in a concept that they called thunder and whisper where the song would have a slow section and then switch and go faster. Sometimes a song would be soft and beautiful and then BAAM! - it would be loud and raucus..hyper-talented musicians.

[@cjonesufc]

Lex, you hit on it. Led Zeppelin were KNOWN for improvising in concert. They never played the songs exactly the same way twice. On that note, as much as I appreciate Stairway live, the studio version is what the legend was made from. Even if you don’t post it you should definitely give it a listen.

[@Chris-kj7de]

They open this concert with "Rock and Roll" and totally rock out! Lex would love it, and you too, even though it's old school fast rock.

[@PeterTea]

I Can’t Quit You Baby and How Many More Times are great, slower blues songs that also have excellent live versions.

[@quincee3376]

Ohhhh man. I get shivers from How Many More Times live.

[@Bob-dg9gr]

Back in 1977 I rolled my car over out in the country, this song was still playing on my 8 track as we crawled out of the car. Lol

[@joseoliveira4880]

Finally you're listening Led Zeppelin live as you should have done in the past. They're amazing live!!!

[@joepaskowski9091]

It’s definitely OG…it was nearly 50 years ago. Wow…time flies when the music is good

[@benshafer5198]

All the footage that you've been watching is from the MSG concert that was depicted in their movie The Song Remains the Same. The concert was recorded in 1973, & the movie was released in '76. I know you've already done Since I've Been Loving You, but I would highly recommend you check out the live version from this concert. One of the best live rock performances of all time IMO. Cheers!

[@michelm306]

Yes!!🙏

[@stevemoss7793]

Something I too have previously recommended!

[@carlneoh5843]

Plant's entrance was legendary

[@rickjohnson3580]

My suggestion is to listen to the studio version of a song. For a first time reaction. There are a few reasons. First and maybe the most important reason. you hearing a song or band for the first time. So you need to hear it the same we all herd it back in the day.how it was originally ment to be herd. You buy the album, then you start on side 1. And listen to each song. Because each song sets up the nexr song. And this gives you whole Led Zeppelin experience. Of 4 masterful musicians who can take a song into any direction they wanted. You will greatly appreciate every song. Because you play that record over and over. Then you waited until a new record came out. With each new song you hear becomes your favorite. Then you flip to side 2 and start the experience all over. With the studio version's you fully hear the song how it was ment to be heard. Also you can hear how the band grew tighter and tighter from song to song. You still haven't herd a bad song. Because there are no bad Zeppelin songs. Now each song becomes your new favorite. Then when a new record was released you would play that record over and over. And now you are blown away how different each album was. Going from R&B, Funk,Soul, Reggie, Folk, Blues, Acid Rock, Hard Rock, Mello Rock, Ballads, they did it all. So to fully understand the band and their music. And to get the reaction that we all got. You just need to start at the begging. I love your channel and keep the videos coming. Led Zeppelin, the greatest band to ever grace the stage they were then, they are today,and forever will be tomorrow

[@davidcarter4247]

Led Zeppelin improvised through their entire live performances, Every concert was unique. I saw then once and they threw in a song that would not appear on an album for two years or be played live for five years. Zeppelin concerts were basically a two to 2½ hour performance but often extended, particularly for those lucky enough to be at the last concert of the tour. We got three hours in Sydney but the longest to be captured on video was just shy of four hours. That was in London. To think Beatles concerts a decade earlier were over in under 30 minutes.

[@billhorstkamp98]

Actually, they were closer to three hour gigs every night. But you nailed it.✌🏼

[@davidcarter4247]

@@billhorstkamp98 Based on the Australian tour in 1972, 2½ hours was the basic setlist. The audience response would extend that with longer songs and extra encores. The Sydney concert used the entire 3 hours permitted by the venue operator. It was outdoors in a venue surrounded by homes and apartments and was a Sunday afternoon (2-5pm) because of the noise issue. Sydney has more suitable venues, indoor and outdoor, now.

[@PeterTea]

Expect the unexpected. Zeppelin would never play the same song the same way twice. Why? They are four of the greatest musicians at their respective positions. So each one of them could throw something new into a performance at any time. One of the many beauties of Zeppelin.

[@unclefido6484]

That's NOT true! This is what heroin does for the kids watching! This is quite possibly the worst thing I've ever heard! And I just heard them react to the bee gees!

You are correct...they played a different concert every night...they were so tight that jimmy could masterfully saddle them up...{with his guitar} if he didn't want them to wander too far.

[@chrisharris7931]

If you prefer slower paced Zeppelin songs, Ten Years Gone is a must. It's their best song, imo.

[@StephenCaudillPhoto]

I'll second that. Perfection and it doesn't get the love it deserves.

[@NeonNights80]

This is the concert they released as a movie and live album called The Song Remains the Same. The version of Since I've Been Loving You from this concert is epic.

[@s.mcpherson6354]

Did you guys not realize that bands sounded different every night? Hey, if the band had a rough day, that can come out in the playing. Same with a great day. Conflict between members can change how things play out. Plus they are all creative people exercising creative ideas, so they can think of some direction to take a solo in, that alters how the other players react. Really good bands are listening to each other really carefully, so that if a guitar solo ventures off into sounding Persian or something, then the drums can go there too. Some nights a song might be four minutes, and on another night, if the solos were rocking and the vocalist is toying with the audience, that four minutes can become twelve. That kind of thing. I hope I helped to make some sense of that.

[@jeffmiller4832]

Happy New Year kids! How about startin 2022 off with a Robin Trower tune called “Too Rolling Stoned”? 🍻

[@Escapee5931]

Always love some RT. He's still touring, too.

[@tonyd1185]

Every Led Zep song is a #1 song!

[@thewizard6077]

As usual, you called it exactly right, Lex! Led Zeppelin never played a song the same way twice in concert. That's why I always say to anybody listening to a Zeppelin song for the first time, It's better to hear the studio version first so you can hear what the song was truly meant to sound like. Then, if you want, check out a live version to hear how they interpreted that song in front of 20,000 intoxicated fans on that given night at that particular concert. Peace

[@Bulshitero]

You guys need to react to Dazed and Confused from the same concert and i promise you both will never be the same!

[@joekuul8769]

I actually prefer the studio version of this song. The drums seem to pop more, imo.

[@sourisvoleur4854]

Not sure why there is a frozen image over the live performance. But Jimmy is on fire and in his absolute best swagger here.

[@oldenslo4141]

BB King said in his interview with Bill Wax on XM radio, that "I never play a song the same way every time". Most artists change the tempo, and the key or add or subtract things from the original recording.

[@smittybenzo4693]

In this episode of Brad & Lex, This 70,s rock classic sampled by The Beastie Boys on their 1986 track "She's Crafty" seems to win over Brad & Lex's internal before their external. Brad becomes a bit animated after Zeppelin's rhythm change giving Brad a mild "side to side sway" as Lex shows us a light "rock bop" to this heavy hitter.

[@marcoe.6987]

Lol, need to do more of these comments dude

[@joshoberg9797]

Try "The Song Remains The Same/The Rain Song" from this concert for a slower ballad style song.

[@MrJeddYoung]

I have watched this specific video many, many times - i love it - and even though you had to "obscure" it - i felt like i was still watching it with you - i'm glad you watched this live version - you get to see the band in its true glory - and please - somewhere on that white board of yours - please put LED ZEPPELIN - BABE I'M GONNA LEAVE YOU - LIVE (DANMARKS RADIO 1969) - an amazing live performance when they were quite young.

Great reaction, and Lex is spot on. Led Zeppelin did play their songs a bit different every night. That's what made their live sets exciting. For most songs, the structure was set, but there was room to stretch out, and ad lib. Band leader/producer/guitarist Jimmy Page would be known to stretch out solos, and the skill of the band was so high that they could quickly adapt.

The whole concert movie The Song Remains The Same is not only Zeppelin in their prime but it’s just one of the best fusions of rock and entertainment ever made! They made some cutaway segments for some songs because this is a movie and they didn’t want movie goers to just watch a concert for 90 minutes.

If you want to see Zeppelin in their prime at their first TV performance, see link below. Plant's voice had its full power, Page wasn't yet totally drugged out (and you get to see him use the cello bow on the guitar), Bonham had a smaller drum kit but man did he hit them *hard*, and Jones is locked right in on that bass, as usual: Led Zeppelin - How Many More Times (Live on TV in Denmark, 1969) kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXazoJqVjMmDe5Y If you want something a bit more chill, you could try this from the same performance: Zep: Babe I'm gonna Leave You kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYCZk4WgmN6EhJo I personally love their down and dirty hard rock stuff, but I dig their more folksy and slow bluesy stuff too. Actually, there's not much that Zep did that I don't love. Anyway the whole concert is great, majorly historical (though the stoned out kids watching obviously had no clue) and is a must watch. They also did Communication Breakdown and a great version of Dazed and Confused.
