Led Zeppelin 1 - Babe I'm Gonna Leave You | Full Album Reaction

[@sicotshit7068]

Robert turned 20 the day after their first rehearsal, on August 20,1968. This album was recorded late September early October 1968, in 4 days & about 30 hours, start to total finish. Jimmy & their manager paid for, & Page produced & edited. This album was released in the USA on January 12,1969, & the UK in March. They were only together about 2 months at the time. They singed with Atlantic Records on November 11,1968, without Atlantic Records hearing them perform live. They also released their second album, in October of 1969. Plant & Bonham were both 20, in January Page would turn 25, & JPJ 23. Greatest band to ever grace this planet. Their story proves it was meant to be. Thank you so much for your reaction, can’t wait for the next, one of my favs.

Great analogy.....

You said this band set the world on fire - that fire is still burning - 50 + yrs later

[@matthewashman1406]

Fabulous song and performance. All 4 shine

[@stevedahlberg8680]

"Is this really Robert Plant?!" ... You are totally cracking me up, laugh. But yeah man this one has blown me away since I ever first heard it in Junior high. So many fond and intense memories associated with it. They just came right out of the gate hitting so hard.

[@xmasgoose5889]

The Led Zeppelin rabbit hole is deep. I guarantee you will not be disappointed

[@958298bordeaux]

I LOVE Robert Plant. His voice is mesmerizing ❤

[@markharbin9945]

Keep it going brother 😮

[@Antiquitycar]

One of Led Zeppelin's greatest songs.

[@gamerkoen7975]

One of my all time favorites!! So much talent!!

[@SteveMavronis]

That’s some emotion in this song!

[@tanyaweathersby9393]

❤❤❤Robert ❤❤❤

[@susanpalmer8931]

Yes, yes they did set the world on fire. Within a few months on tour they were no longer down the bill with other bands. They were the top bill or very soon in 1969 - the only band on the bill. NOTHING sounded like them!

[@stevedahlberg8680]

I still get emotional hearing this song even though I've heard it a billion times. It's just so well put together and they're having such fun but they are already beasts at what they do.

[@958298bordeaux]

LED ZEPPELIN schooled Van Halen. As you continue your Zeppelin journey youll come to the conclusion they were the best!!! EVER!❤

[@ryanr5319]

Truthiness. Ty for the Zep reactions sir!

[@129robertp]

In the 50's and 60's many young British were very much Blues and Rock fans. And then they brought it back to the USA in the form of the British Invasion 1963-1967 or so.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

There were many “waves” to the British music invasion. It was still going strong in the 80’s……

[@RockinMamaT]

Yes Robert is a sexy beast 😂😂

[@HadesMiscreant]

He had all the ladies eating from the palm of his hand.🤙

[@958298bordeaux]

YES HE IS

[@juliemanarin4127]

Every song...every album were an absolute masterpiece!!

[@PaulWalker-hz6zp]

Great reaction!

[@jonhoward4884]

[@jay-remedy-plz]

[@jillw4983]

Love LZ

[@mitchellbeston1033]

The first Zeppelin album i heard was Zeppelin 4. I then went back to this album. By the time i heard this song, i knew i was in for an experience...i wasn't wrong. Still my favourite debut album i've ever heard.

[@SK-lk3iu]

I consider this song a masterpiece!

[@mikeplott4817]

Great Reaction 👍🙏💯😎

[@Linda-y9h]

My favorite LZ song. No, really. ❤😂

[@campion10]

I’m pretty sure both Plant and Bonham were a mere 20 years old.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

Yes……

[@958298bordeaux]

Amazing

[@sicotshit7068]

Yes Plant turned 20 the day after the first rehearsal.

[@markharbin9945]

Love the album 😮

[@pauldavis2535]

You are correct ❤

[@briarpatch720]

one band to rule them all...

[@johnmurray6501]

Hi Brother, Jimmy Page, Auditioned Robert Plant for his band. Robert sung in other bands. They Gelled,the rest is History. Love your take and honesty mate, 😂. I am a fan of your channel. Led Zepps life will blow your mind, 😂😎🤣.

[@kima.4268]

Alot of bands wouldnt exist if not for Zeppelin. Including Van Halen.

[@heliotropezzz333]

The Beatles did talk about British culture. Ever heard 'Penny Lane', 'Eleanor Rigby'; 'A Day in the Life. Strawberry Fields Forever' and most of their lyrics in their songs are influenced by their experiences in Britain. It's just their style of music that was influenced by America. Much the same with Led Zeppelin though perhaps LZ took on board more of the American blues lyrics but not exclusively so.

[@mikecaetano]

"Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" -- this souped-up psychedelic blues stomp is a cover of a song first recorded by Joan Baez in 1962. Baez heard songwriter Anne Bredon performing the song on the radio and began performing the song herself. Led Zeppelin's guitarist Jimmy Page heard her version, souped it up, and wow, there you have it! Fire!

[@targetshootr]

He did some scattin' toward the end of What Is And What Should Never Be. Got to see those guys a couple of times.

[@958298bordeaux]

Mature 20 year olds❤

[@CosmicVagabondPixie]

Oh man i **LUV** That "He better be from Brooklyn New York or somethin man" AHAHAHA F YEA!!! *Luvit* *ROCK*

[@nancysmith38]

I remember getting this album when it first came out! Vinyl records were like 2.99…… I wasn’t old enough to drive yet so my big brother took me to the store and bought it for me. ❤

[@andrewwright9378]

White British kids discovered Black American music culture and introduced it to white Americans via the British Invasion in the sixties. A lot of Black American blues musicians credit the white British bands for finally getting them their due in their own country!

[@FrankWirth-ij4rq]

"Whole lotta love" live official Lets just say his jeans are tight his chest is hairy. Just saying. Guy or girl appreciate that shit.

[@sicotshit7068]

Every guy wanted to be him, & every girl wanted to be with him.

[@jankauffman4753]

No comparison IMO Led Zeppelin to Van Halen .. 🙏🏻

[@ryanr5319]

Rob totally just moans and makes sounds. I would also totally pay to listen to that only. heh They are the greatest band ever...ever. Ty for reaction sir.

[@stuBdoc]

But the next track is the one I'm waiting for you to hear, if you haven't already. An absolute killer blues track.

[@larryh.5229]

After world war II American Merchant Marines bringing supplies over to England would have guitars blues albums jazz albums and kids will be hanging around docks and so these sailors would give these kids gifts..... Which in turn is a generation of the Beatles, The who and led Zeppelin and all of those bands that came out of the 60s invasion

[@stephenmaclean3422]

A lot of the American influence on British baby boomers is the result of American Soldiers from WW2 leaving behind their records, guitars, harmonicas and even babies after returning to America after the war. Eric Clapton’s father, though he never knew him, was a Canadian Soldier who made Eric at British Dance Hall during WW2 where he played piano and left behind his guitar. Clapton’s father went on to be a pretty good piano player on on the lounge circuit through the 60’s 70s and 80s and would have know of Eric’s rise but not that it was his son. The rise of rock and roll through the fifties in America was mirrored inBritain but where in America, Little Richard, and Chuck Berry couldn’t appear on stage with whites or in front of whites because of segregation, when they traveled to Britain the headlined to mixed audiences (mostly white) and pulled younger white rock and roll acts along with them.

[@juliemanarin4127]

They ate British!

[@JamesDimond-l7u]

What happened to Led Zeppelin 2 review?

[@TerenceShortman]

History is a funny thing WW2 American GIs came to the UK for the invasion of Europe D-Day the American military segregated The African American GIs from White GIs they tried to implement this segregation in UK bars, clubs, cinemas and dance halls a lot of the British public refused to comply with this. The African American troops brought their music with them it caught on the UK public liked it so the Blues, Jaz and Soul music of the 40's, 50's and the 60's so much so some African American artists were more well known and had bigger sales in the UK and Europe most of the popular UK bands of the 60's and 70's started off covering straight rock and roll, blues and Jaz and then took that basic sound and started to experiment and take it to another level they then took it back to the US it was known as the so called British invasion of America. It started with the Beetles, the stones, the animals, the kinks and the who soon to be followed by the likes of Led Zepplin, Black Sabbath, Deep purple, Pink Floyd, The Moody blues, Procel harem, King crimson, YES, ELP, Genesis,
