Rapper FIRST time REACTION to Led Zeppelin - Black Dog! Controlled chaos

[@AKR8810]

During live performances, Led Zeppelin almost never play their songs the same way they record them in the studio. Not only are their songs different from the studio version, they are also played different from concert to concert. So if you hear your favorite Led Zeppelin song at 3 different concerts, it will have similarities, but it won't be played the same way. They play spontaneous, and play off each other. The fact they can do that and sound tight, shows their greatness. Led Zeppelin studio songs typically have a lot of rhythm and tempo changes, that broke the standard norm of making songs. So you never know what to expect, and are always surprised. I think this makes their songs so exciting.

[@SK-lk3iu]

Yes, listening to live performances for a first hearing is always a huge gamble; the studio versions will always be the "perfected" version. But people are always recommending live performances because they already know the song & they like the excitement of seeing and hearing them live. I have to cringe sometimes with some of the live performances that are recommended for first time viewers!

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

Jimmy liked to noodle on the guitar and he would sometimes get off key, off beat and throw in runs that don't really fit, but the 2 Johns would always keep the song and beat going until he got back in line with them to continue the song. I saw some videos where he was too high to play well. My best friend in high School worked at the venue they played in San Diego around 1972 and he got to put Jimmy's guitar on the stage so they could walk out on stage in the dark and know exactly where their instruments would be. It was all carefully measured. You would not see that today.

[@AKR8810]

@@HRConsultant_Jeff I saw 3 of their early concerts, and Jimmy was great. However he had a period of serious drug addiction that affected how he played. I saw a video of him playing Stairway To Heaven with Jeff beck and Eric Clapton. They were each supposed to get a part. Jimmy started, sounded horrible, and couldn't get it right. He kept trying and ignored the others when they signaled to come in. EC kept his cool, but JB was furious. I almost totally lost respect for my all time favorite guitarist.

[@AKR8810]

@@SK-lk3iu I think it depends on what the reactor likes. Also a tame studio version or a poorly played live version can both make them loose interest. It can go either way especially for a first time listener. My goal is to get them to react to my favorite bands enough times to get an impression, hopefully a good one. Therefore I recommend by what I think they would like. As good as Since I've Been Lovin You live MSG 1973 is, the studio version is better. However I think Kashmir live at Knebworth 1979 is better than the studio version and would always recommend that. Sometimes you don't get 2 tries with reactors so it's important to get it right the first time. Another thing is everyone knows it's easy to sound good in a studio.

[@adammetz7063]

@@SK-lk3iu Thank you so much! Damn, I thought I was the only one who understood this, lmao. I see so many people recommending live versions of songs to people who haven't even heard the studio version yet. Why would you do that?!?! Yes, there are occasions where great songs are done even better in a live performance than they originally were in the studio. But as a general rule, the studio versions sound better, and there are just too many flaws in most live performances, that people should just listen to the studio version first, as a general rule of thumb. I can't stand when someone recommends a live version to a virgin listener, the listener doesn't really dig it (quite possibly because it sounds raw and rough live), and then that virgin listener gets completely turned off from the band from now on--when, if they had just been recommended the STUDIO version, a lot of times, they really would have liked it, and actually gotten MORE interested in the band!! Live songs can be great--but usually (not always, but usually), they only sound their best "live" when they've first been heard in the studio. People need to wake up and realize this, lol.

[@kevinmaillet4712]

This is a perfect example of a song which sounds easy but is actually more difficult than it sounds, due to the time signature. That's classic Page and Jones.

[@samcomer8604]

WHEN THE LEVEE BREAKS!!!! shit will blow your mind, brother!

[@michaelalberts3615]

Amen

[@barkriverbravo1]

[@cmoplay1]

Led Zeppelin always improvised on stage. No song was ever played the same. Their albums are much more controlled Check out "Since I've been Loving you" from this same concert. Amazing. A great studio track is a blues called "When the Levee Breaks." It's simply remarkable. The band disbanded after the tragic death of their drummer and great friend John Bonham. I believe he died of alcohol poisoning, just days after he came out of rehab for other substances. Please don't judge these early bands too harshly. They had to be artists under a ton of pressure to produce hits. And tours back then lasted for months. This performance is from a three night gig at Madison Square Gardens. The concerts lasted at least 3 hours each night. Unfortunately, many of them turned to drugs or alcohol to handle the workload and the pressure. Most of these legends have long left their addictions behind them. Eric Clapton, Jummy Page, and Keith Richards immediately come to mind. None of this even touches on the tragedies in their personal lives. Both Robert Plant, singer for Led Zeppelin, and Eric Clapton lost children in tragic accidents while they were on tour. I love the music, but I have so much respect for these flawed, complicated artists.

[@jannaromine5908]

So now it's appropriate to watch h "Since I've Been Loving You" at this same concert..MSG

[@bella-xp7qd]

Eric was on vacation in New York. Clapton was staying in a hotel nearby and was preparing to pick up Conor for a planned father-son lunch and visit to the Central Park Zoo.

[@DiZastur]

John Bonham has been reincarnated as a Mexican young woman named Paulina (pau) Villeareal- Velez from Monterrey, Mexico. Best Rock Drummer Drumeo award 2023. Her and her 2 sisters comprise the warning and are the best rock trio I've ever heard. Never seen yet but they are opening in Vancouver for Evanesence in October. Please don't sell out that show until I can get the money together for a ticket. These girls are the Beatles of this Century. I really, really need to see them live.

[@erikaronska1096]

It’s called Black Dog because they saw a black dog outside of the studio Check out my favorite Zeppelin song “The Battle of Evermore”!

[@timskywalker]

Battle of Evermore, Misty Mountain Hop, and Ramble On all have Lord of The Rings references, so if your into Lord of The Rings check those three out together

[@timskywalker]

Also Robert Plant's dog was named Strider (Aragorn)

[@machtshnel]

Yes this is the Story Jimmy Page related on the day of the recording, It was told that they were taking a break and had the back door to the studio open and as you said a black dog wandered past

[@Daxtarr1]

That's almost right. When Zeppelin arrived at Headley Grange (The mansion where they recorded the album) there was a dead black dog in the front yard. Jimmy Page said, "Well hell, we should make a song called Black Dog in honor of this dead mutt." That's why the lyrics have nothing to do with a black dog. The rest is history.

[@ZacCostilla]

This song was not just named, but inspired by a stray black dog that kept coming by and sometimes into the studio. It was a horny little bugger, and would mount and hump anything it could get to. So it inspired the song that was part of the “free love” aspect of being a hippy.

[@hanspettersson504]

[@teardownthewalls]

"Since I've been loving you". Same concert. It will shatter you.

[@wendyzeller3908]

Led Zeppelin pretty much started out already in iconic greatness and they just kept getting better. You have a very LONG and amazing musical journey ahead of you. Led Zeppelin changed everything

[@prestonpresley6885]

Led Zeppelin were steeped in American Blues, but they took that influence in a heavier direction than most of their peers, creating a powerful, stomping sound that also incorporated elements of British Folk, Psychedelia, Soul, Reggae, and Celtic and Arabic music. World class musicians a couple,of times over.

[@jmar7631]

Led Zeppelin were the greatest rock band in history. Four amazingly gifted musicians who were creating music like no other band before or since. This is why after 40+ years after they disbanded (because of the untimely death of their drummer), their fan base continues to grow, other artists are still covering and sampling their music and they still hold the record for the highest number of album sales in the hard rock genre. If you want to do a serious dive into why that's true, start with album 1, track 1 and just keep on going. What they produced will blow your mind. Congrats on the baby!! :)

[@daisy9910]

My favourite band of ALL time. Each member was a maestro in their own right.

[@sicotshit7068]

Back in the day, they broke the attendance record with about 57,000. One of the nights playing at Knebworth (1979) there was about 250,000 people. This song was named for a Black Labrador that hung around Headley Grange, when they stayed there together writing & recording in The Rolling Stones mobile studio. Headley Grange was an old estate, without heat. Bonham’s opening drumming for When The Levee Breaks, was recorded in the 3 story entrance, with mics placed just right it gave it a really great sound.

[@davidwylde8426]

They’re switching time signatures and accents throughout which is why the rhythms sound either cool,( if you dig that), or weird/off if you don’t. It was a very popular way of exploring ideas in the 70’s and it does sound great when you use it correctly as a tool.

[@smilie-pm9gb]

They named the song "Black Dog" because they befriended a black labrador that lived in the mansion they were recording their albumb at... they just thought it was a cool song tile :D

[@stuckinarkansas1]

For me, the best Led is the controlled chaos Led, tipping on the rails til they nearly go off, but never do. Always able to bring it back. But they have plenty of joints to satisfy everyones taste. Just keep going.

I first heard Led Zeppelin in the Summer of 1970. A school pal lent me Led Zeppelin 2 and I was hooked. I saved up the £2 needed to buy a copy then bought number 1 (not called that) They are amazing. No song is the same and unlike music today we appreciated the music as much as the lyrics. You need to do more to appreciate just how good they were until Bonzo died when they just couldn't continue. Kashmir and of course Stairway to Heaven are a start

This is taken from their film "The Song Remains the Same". You should watch it

A chronological approach is the best method to discover Led Zep. Can you imagine, as a teenager, waiting patiently, for each album to be released, waiting for any photograph or poster to put up on your bedroom wall. What people, fail to mention, the marketing behind the band, there was only the music or a live concert to experience.

[@alexharbison4411]

Nice reaction, I saw that smile when he says he will make her sting. You are better when your mind is in the gutter.

[@rosemaryabbott1020]

Way back in the early 60s the blues players over here (Freddie King, BB King, Albert King, Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf etc.) went across the “pond” and influenced the living daylights out of all of the teenage “geeks” in England and they got themselves guitars and became guitar “gods” of Rock and Roll music. Then came the second “British invasion” with The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Herman’s Hermits, The Animals and more coming here to tour and make it big. Led Zeppelin and Cream and the other Super Groups came out about 5 years after the first wave of talent came through. When The Yardbirds split up The Jeff Beck Group, Cream (Eric Clapton) and Led Zeppelin (Jimmy Page) were formed by the guitarists of the Yardbirds. They ruled the world of Rock and Roll for many years and now they are dying off. They lied when they said that Rock and Roll would never die. It’s dying all over the place now. If people don’t start listening to this music and carry it forth it will truly die. Joe Bonamassa is doing his part in bringing it forward. I do wish you would react to some of his music. He’s doing it right. Robert Plant totally ruled the vocalist kingdom until Freddie Mercury and Queen came along in about 1974. Nobody could hold a candle to him. Not Rod Stewart, Joe Cocker or anyone else. By the time Led Zeppelin came out Elvis was history and nobody here could even compare to them. They split up when their drummer died. John Bonham died from an overdose of alcohol in 1980. That split up the band and they never reunited again except for a show in the beginning of the 21st century. The Oxygen concert was the name of the concert. Jimmy Page was messing around with the occult and it scared Plant away from rejoining the band. That’s what I think happened.

[@christinewells7745]

Led Zeppelin is 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥♥️

[@TheStaffmaster]

Led Zeppelin is one of those rare bands that never put out a bad song. Every album is absolutely BRIMMING with hits, and every song they made are still played on classic rock stations world wide. The first 4 albums are just numbered I through IV , though the 4th one got the nickname "ZoSo" because one of the (meaningless) symbols they printed on the album art kind of looks like that word. Their other albums are "Houses of the Holy," "Presence," "In Through the Out Door," and "Physical Graffiti." They also have a Live record called "The Song Remains the Same" and the remaining members of the band released a remastered compilation album back in the early 2000's called "Mothership." Another famous album is "Coda," which is some recuts and unreleased stuff, put out in 1982, a few years after their drummer died and the band decided to jointly retire out of respect for his memory. Seriously, Led Zep's Discography is like a magnetic dartboard that's all bullseye: CAN'T. MISS.

[@Cchan53]

They were super accomplished musicians and could come up with different styles of music all in one album. I ve owned them all, I think I know every change in songs, the time a drum solo lasts, I could practically mouth the guitar notes and of course new all of Plants lyrics!

[@brucefollett8117]

This song was named for a black dog that was roaming the grounds of a cottage in England where Zeppelin was working on their fourth album. The song itself is supposedly one of the most difficult songs they created because of the complex timing. John Bonham (the drummer) was becoming frustrated with trying to master the rhythm, and during a break he spontaneously broke into a drum intro from the Little Richard song "Hear you knockin'". The rest of the band joined the jam and in a matter of minutes the LZ song "Rock and Roll" was born. Obviously Bonzo mastered "Black Dog" and another classic came to be.

[@rogerstarkey5390]

"Cottage"? Headley Grange?

[@badbob6689]

They called the song black dog because when they were recording there was a black dog that was always about where they were recording.

When Zeppelin were together they were the best, the band died when the drummer-John Bonham the great died young 32 in 1980 , he was also the worlds best drummer

[@allengator1914]

The title is a reference to a nameless black Labrador Retriever the band used to see wandering the Headley Grange studio grounds. The dog would disappear in the evening and return exhausted in the early morning, before resting all day and repeating his evening sojourns. You get the picture.

[@Cchan53]

I said once before they didn't always perform there best live...if you knew the the touring they did and partying ,I thing it wore on them and it showed. John Bonham the drummer died right before a scheduled tour into the early 80's ( maybe late70's) and the band didn't think it was Led Zeppelin without him in it. Story goes he tmreally did not want to go on tour anymore ,he was drinking heavily that day during rehearsals, was put to bed. I'm assuming sleeping on his back choked when he vomited and died...tragic. such a talent!

[@anthonyv6962]

After 1975 probably closer to 1974 the fame, money, women, pressure, drugs, the starship Plants voice etc. all began to take a toll on the band and the shows show that. Add to that Page insisted on tweaking the live songs in post production, in the TSRTS Move there are overdubs etc. The B&W footage of them in Denmark (I think) playing How Many More Times and Dazed etc is some of their best work. The early Royal Albert Hall or Earls Court not sure of the venue name was all good stuff too. Early Zeppelin Performances = Best Performances.

The dog’s appearance was so unexpected and startling that it left a lasting impression on Plant, who later wrote the lyrics as a metaphor.

[@suepall5425]

70's rock is quintessential rock. "Controlled chaos" is an apt description and you're absolutely right. Those of us who grew up in the 60's and 70's came into our appreciation of hard rock one step up the ladder at a time. You might say up "The Stairway to Heaven".

You should React to *Led Zeppelin - Since I’ve Been Loving You (Live MSG 1973)* It's gonna be your new favorite song of them
