Led Zeppelin - What Is And What Should Never Be (HD)

And if I say to you tomorrow,
Take my hand, child, come with me,
It's to a castle I will take you,
Where what's to be, they say will be.
Catch the wind, see us spin, sail away,
Leave today, way up high in the sky and whoa,
But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go, it only goes to show,
That you will be mine, by taking our time.
And if you say to me tomorrow,
Oh, what fun it all would be,
Then what's to stop us, pretty baby,
But what is and what should never be.
Catch the wind, see us spin, sail away,
Leave today, way up high in the sky and whoa,
But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go, it only goes to show,
That you will be mine, by taking our time.
So if you wake up with the sunrise,
And all your dreams are still as new,
And happiness is what you need so bad,
Girl, the answer lies with you.
Catch the wind, see us spin, sail away,
Leave today, way up high in the sky and whoa,
But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go, it only goes to show,
That you will be mine, by taking our time.
Oh, the wind won't blow and we really shouldn't go,
And it only goes to show,
Catch the wind, we're gonna see it spin,
We're gonna sail, little girl.
Everybody I know seems to know me well,
But they're never gonna know that I move like hell.

I first heard this song in January 1970 during my first experience with acid. I was "getting off" and the familiar "Whole Lotta Love" was making my head explode. Then this song came on and I calmed down and watched the room melt. 300 mikes of Purple Haze (tab not barrel). They don't make it like that anymore, I guess. Now they "micro-dose". We used to call that getting "ripped off".

There will never be a band like Led Zeppelin again !!!! I don't know how they did it but I like or love every single song off of every album they wrote. I mean really !?!?! Every song is great !!!! I'm a musician and I'm completely boggled by the way they achieved this !!!! How ??? I'm 55 and to this day when I listen to Zeppelin it's like listening to something I just discovered. As we all do I'll kind of get away from it for a little while then I go through this binging phase, in and out my whole life, and every time it's like a new discovery. I don't know maybe I'm goofy, but that's my experience with this band. Just an incredible mark that they have left on music. It's nuts really !!!

MR. JOHN PAUL JONES !!!!!!!!!!

[@Davett53]

I'm rocking age 70. Zep was playing loudly in my buddy's large attic bedroom, at his folks house, when we tripped, in 1971. The room was decked out with a billowy army surplus parachute, hanging down from the rafters. We had a very primitive electric light-show, color strobe, that pulsed along with the music. The floor was covered with several mattresses, that we laid upon, and they were covered in Tie-dyed bedsheets, and faux eastern Indian patterned fabrics. Patchouli & sandalwood , incense sticks steadily burned, giving off hypnotic curls of smoke, that filled the air. Good times.

[@LoneLee2022]

Sounds like fun.............

[@Davett53]

@@LoneLee2022 Back then, friends knew how to create a mellow and safe place to "trip". LSD had already been on the scene, since the early 1960s, so by 1970, hip publications, were printing, "How To" manuals.

[@LoneLee2022]

@@Davett53 I miss those days. I never had a bad trip.

[@Davett53]

@@LoneLee2022 Me neither. In fact they were amazing visual explorations. I felt I experienced a lot of the things, other people had tried to describe to me. Like intense colors, swirling unfolding imagery, things that resembled fractals,...unwinding coils, that were dimensional, like spiral staircases. I remember staring at a patterned fabric, that turned into to a whole 3 dimensional world. I remember laughing non-stop,...everything was novel. I recall repeating the words, "far out", over and over. I dreamt or hallucinated that a talking squirrel and I were communicating, he turned into my spiritual guide. We walked past towering buildings that were glowing, and pulsating in intense colors. There were trails and tracers, following everything I looked at,...everything was all melty looking. Or I thought at another point, my whole body was made of crystals, or fragmented like broken safety glass chips. My trip lasted 3 whole days, we began it on Friday night, and I was worried that I wouldn't be straight enough, come Monday. It took an extra day to fully recover.

I watched "Breaking the Band"-Led Zepplin tonight on REELZ and I learned that Page and Plant REALLY did not get along in the last few years of Zep's existence. A lot of it seems to have come from Page's rampant heroin usage. Toward the end the band was barraged by one tragedy after another. Plant's son Darac died suddenly while the band was touring in the U.S. Finally, John Bonham's death "broke the band."
