Silas, where you said Jimmy Page does it again was actually a harmonica solo by Robert. He played that thing like nobody's business while Page supported him with backing guitar. It's one of my favorite Zep moments (of many.)

[@79BlackRose]

Yeah, Silas is still struggling to tell the difference between instruments. I guess he'll learn.

[@Kashmir.820]

Nothing better than Robert on that harmonica!!!!

[@Newfie-zc7ug]

Thank you my friends....why Robert gave it up is a complete mystery to. I've heard many play this instrument in Rock and Blues over the years but NONE better than Plant Peace & Love

[@ginnydominguez5493]

This is my favorite from presence. Robert playing that harmonica. It just makes the song. He slams it good job silas.

[@PeterTea]

Nobody's fault but Zeppelin's for this eargasm. That was actually Plant on harmonica that was killing the solo. Of all the accolades that Zeppelin has one you rarely hear about is Plant's great harmonica playing but he's something else on it. Probably my favorite song off this album. I love that start and stop rhythm and the harmonizing guitar that phases in at the beginning with the vocals. Great stuff!

[@cooperstonebadge2228]

yeah came here to say this. that was plant on the blues harp. also my favorite from this album

[@Ledzepnut]

Robert sure could play the harmonica, and Jimmy played the same notes on the guitar, just one helluva song, but I give "Achilles Last Stand" the edge, it was so far ahead of its time, but in all honesty, I love them both equally, along with "Tea for One".

[@Prone2Thrill]

Ozzy has a pretty good Harmonica too - if you watch "The Wizard" REHEARSAL video from their reunion tour sessions you can see he's still got it!

[@imanointedone1]

You might want to say, something along the lines of: "The more that I listen to them, the clearer that it becomes why, nearly everybody says that Led Zeppelin were the greatest band..."

[@snakeinthegrass7443]

Been a Zep fan for over 40 years and it's impossible to say what's my fav or what's the best. Just keep rockin, young man! I love seeing you get blown away by "oldies" music. My father's music sucks so I'm glad to know my music will live forever! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@richardflawn5417]

The first solo is Plant on harmonica!

[@ledded1]

And just another example of why to me they are the greatest band ever.

[@mikecaetano]

"Nobody's Fault but Mine" was first recorded by Blind Willie Johnson in 1927. Nina Simone released an updated version of the song in 1969 that favored the emotional fatalism of the lyrics over its traditional gospel message. Led Zeppelin ups the voltage considerably in their heavy psychedelic blues rock take on the song. Fire!

[@MaD-gs9qx]

Saw them open their '77 show with this tune. He pulls an electric harmonica from his back pocket and wailed. Plant can play the harmonica like no one else in rock and roll.

[@BluesJammer69]

a band of Rock Gods!

[@Grumpy_Rabbit]

Hearing a Led Zep song for the first time is usually some sort of magical experience. This song was that for me, 45 years ago now....

[@shawl777]

I was 13 when Physical Graffiti came out...that was my “gateway album” to Zep. 😁 Presence came out the next year and I remember being slightly (emphasis on slightly) disappointed, as PG was arguably their best and I was spoiled! 😂That first solo, as someone mentioned above, is Plant on harmonica. Great to see a youngster enjoying this music so many years later! It’s truly timeless. Looking forward to more of your reactions! 👍

[@nickmarzano2433]

you REALLY need to watch them live!!!!

[@ksquine]

The song is about heroin addiction. "Gong" is an old term for opium..."Monkey on my back" is a term for addiction. Page was using heroin in these years and Bonham was sinking into alcoholism.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

The live version from the O2 is great. By this point in the concert they were relaxed and having fun. Lots of grins back and forth. And they were SO tight!

[@joelharris3389]

I heard this in the summer of 1976 floating in the swimming pool at Gregg's house when I was 14. It is timeless!

[@joannparker1977]

Rock harmonica. Never heard that before. Bravo Robert Plant! Woohoo! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@jibidishamrock]

You guys need to react to "How Many More Times" live. First from Damarks TV then from Royal Albert Hall. Only a year separated the 2 shows but the songs are vastly different on all levels

[@adrianwright1702]

One of the great finshes too, the last two minutes is especially brilliant.

[@guycosta5086]

Silas now I know what I looked like when I first heard it in the 70’s. A vision of what enjoying “rock” looks like! Fun to relive it through your ears!

[@loadedorygun]

That is the craziest rhythm!

[@neshobanakni]

They are all obviously on the same wavelength here!

[@mitchellbeston1033]

Love Bonzo's drums in this one.

[@ngairehurunui9055]

Loving your honest reactions to Zeppelin, keep reacting, keep growing, just brilliant to see 🎶💯

[@CaptainBlood2010]

Robert played the killer harmonica solo!

[@lorcazola]

5:15 PLANT on HARMONICA ! Also Plant and Page HARMONIZE !

[@dannycasson1551]

Best pure rock band in history.

[@albertalcozer7071]

Don't forget the drummer john Bonham try staying up With him on 🥁 John passed away in 1980 from drinking to much vodka I remember that day it Was sad to hear

[@michaelstrauss3769]

Robert Plant on the Harmonica solo.

[@kevinbrady6075]

"Tight but Loose"

[@JuniorFarquar]

Controlled chaos!

[@mrtnpope]

Fast and bulbous

[@benoitbastien1915]

Same on ''Bring It On Home'' intro...oh Robert Anthony Plant!

[@MaD-gs9qx]

and the drums!

[@adrianwright1702]

All round fabulous song by great muso's but I love the drums too.

[@williamcabell142]

Love this tune...one of my favorites! 😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

And those drums!

[@commentatron]

4:19 love those drums

[@eatthisvr6]

another beast of a track

[@fantasycampfilms]

Please, Please, Please do In Through The Out Door after Presence. Would love to see your reaction to "Fool In The Rain" and "Carouselambra." They will both blow your mind!!

[@ZosoLU]

There's not enough love out there for Carouselambra. It's such a killer 3-part wonder.

[@Ledzepnut]

Olivia should be with you on "Fool in the Rain"

[@maineiacial]

You give me hope in teenagers of today

[@mvellis3863]

If you want to hear more of Robert Plant wailing on the harmonica, check out his guest appearance on the songs "Goat Meat" and "Jr." by the North Mississippi Allstars (World Boogie Is Coming album)

[@joelharris3389]

Robert on the Harmonica brutha

[@gerhardbraatz6305]

There was no doubt in my mind that you were going to like this song, and by the way, LAMP!

[@hampyonce]

I listened to a side of this album while getting ready school every day of my 8th grade year. Great album! Enjoy watching you hear it!

[@Prone2Thrill]

Such a great song!!! That Harmonica if pure FILTH - if this song was by almost anyone else it'd be their biggest hit. For Zeppelin it's just another song but it isn't....

[@greekadmirer2204]

Hi Silas , not sure if already mentioned by others but the Page and Plant version off the No Quarter album is very interesting…

[@brewstergallery]

Hey Silas, Ned and Janet from Spain digging what you do and so happy to see you lovin Presence. Nobody's Fault is one of our favorites. Everybody's on blast in this song but you gotta say OMFG on John Bonhams incredible drumming. Lots of love to you and Alivia

[@JuniorFarquar]

Get ready....BOOM!

[@chrisd7047]

Hey, Bonzo... Yeah? Gorilla mode on this one. Heh.

[@ginger4141]

Hell yeah Zep! 😎🤘

[@brianshockledge3241]

Yet another great cover from the cover kings of rock.

[@scottzappa9314]

There's actually a killer live version of this that I heard at a local Blues festival some years ago. (it's the only time I ever heard it) Really great, not that this one is bad.

[@tektoniks_architects]

The angst the band shows in this track is real....a mirror of the turmoil in the band during this period of time.

[@philipdickey6460]

Need to react to their first album

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

Already did. He’s doing them in order

[@haroldsparks4483]

"Scat" is a term for using the human voice to mimic a musical instrument, in unison. It was commonly used in early jazz and blues music. Then by others. The jazz and blues styles are the ealiest sources that I am familiar with. But I am not an expert on this by any means.

[@ptrlxc]

This is one of the fun songs to play on guitar, not too hard for an amateur guitar player like me.

[@hampyonce]

Might be my favorite Zep track.

[@carlburnett5986]

It makes me laugh that young reactors have trouble identifying a harmonica lol Presence is a brilliant album, underrated. This is the probably the best track. Other faves are Achilles Last Stand, For Your Life and Tea For One

[@clab5864]

Just wish this tune was a minute or 2 longer.

[@brianrussell6570]

TEA for ONE ...with your lady,man

[@stefanbecker9526]

Never play that while driving a car - you'll crash and burn 😅 But you see, how important pauses are. Nowadays music has forgotten about it.

[@juliemanarin4127]

Isn't this great??? That's Robert on the harmonica on first solo...Jimmy on 2nd!! WATCH IT LIVE!!

[@CaptainBlood2010]

Robert Plant plays the blues harp. Not Jimmy!

[@im_sorry_dave5117]

Changing time signatures.....sadly doesn't seem to exist with modern music anymore....I know there are some contemporary rock bands out there like Greta Van fleet but this level of virtuosity is being lost and even killed by the omnipresent overuse of auto tune and sequencers these days..... anyway glad some of the kids are still able to appreciate REAL music still...good reaction my dude.... just one thing tho It's Robert Plant on harmonica for the solo with JP filling in the gaps for once 🔥👍🤞

[@chrisd7047]

If you enjoy changing time signatures and real rock, check out Jinjer. Pisces is where most people start.

[@helenespaulding7562]

Silas…. You should be able to recognize a harmonica by this time. Levee Breaks?? That was Robert Plant doing a killer solo on harmonica…. Not Jimmy on guitar. As instruments, They really don’t sound alike

[@mattbailey9396]

💥

[@DC-ih8bv]

It’s called harmonizing ..

[@christopherhuot2826]

Luv that stink face Silas 😍

[@davidschecter5247]

Couldn't tell if you liked it -- you were too busy smiling.

[@patrickfuller2423]

syncopation

[@79BlackRose]

It is not right that Jimmy and Robert claimed sole song writing credits for this as it was written in the 1920s by Blind Willie Johnson. 🤔

[@helenespaulding7562]

Honestly…different time, different attitudes on 50 year old songs that had all but disappeared. By today’s ethics….not good. By the ethics of the time….nobody thought anything of it. So I can’t find fault with them for it

[@79BlackRose]

@@helenespaulding7562 They made money from someone else's artistry. So, I do find fault with them for it. It is blatant plagiarism. Are you biased because you're a fan perhaps?

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

@@79BlackRose Fair question, but no; I’m biased because I was a young adult at that time and I know what the culture was like. What the ethics were. And one of my pet peeves is people with today’s sense of what’s acceptable looking into history and judging people of a different time by today’s standards. So I bristle when that whole issue comes up….not merely with Zeppelin. At that time…those old blues songs were thought of much like folk music was…..part of the black culture. I’m sure Plant knew Blind Willy Johnson. He listened to his music. I’m also sure that (rightly or wrongly) they figured that Johnson had probably heard it from some other black blues player, as those old blues songs were sung by allot of black blues men with variations added by each musician. They were English, so came from an old folk tradition where songs were just part of the culture, and I think they looked at blues that way …..as kind of the folk music of southern black culture. So I give Zeppelin and other bands from that period a pass. (you know that many bands borrowed from the blues, right? Zeppelin just had the most money and the most fame…..they were not unique at all in what they did. As Robert Plant said when introducing this song at the 2007 O2….”everybody nicks it”.). . I don’t think they it with evil intent. In any case, they were a product of the time and culture they lived in. As are we all. And yes, I’m a BIG fan. 😁. But it’s not Zep I’m defending, I’m rather condemning the judging of past people by today’s standards. ✌️

[@79BlackRose]

@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 I was a kid then, so I know what the culture was like at the time. I am not doing what you dislike in others. You mentioned that old blues songs were thought of much like folk music was. An example of this is "Whisky In The Jar" which was hundreds of years old and covered by Thin Lizzy in 1972. The three band members did not try and give the impression that this was an original piece of music they created. Rather, they noted that it was "Trad." and that their contribution was an "Arr." Thin Lizzy were also a product of their time and the culture they lived in. So, do not make the mistake that just because Jimmy Page and Robert Plant nicked it, everyone did so. You will find they credited the specific writers of the guitar parts they used in the instrumental section of "Black Rose" in 1979. Phil Lynott and Gary Moore were not going to steal the intellectual property of other artists. As for their intent, how can you possibly know what was in their mind?

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

@@79BlackRose excellent point with Thin Lizzie. Right on the mark. As to your last sentence: I do not know what was in their minds, nor in anyone else’s mind. Because of that, I try to err on the side of not judging other people’s motivations and try giving them the benefit of the doubt. Therefore, For me, it does not detract from the benefit of their musical gifts to posterity. For you, it does.

[@Peter-zu5jg]

This kid is insufferable.

[@kimberlyhalloran5724]

Plant is playing harmonica

[@vegasmobydick]

Interesting how you refer to "Nobody's Fault But Mine" as "the fourth song on the album Presence". As someone who bought the vinyl album at age 14 when it first came out, I will always think of this song as "track one on side two". And although we're both technically correct, here's evidence that we're all a product of a generation. Regardless, it's awesome to see someone listening to and appreciating Led Zeppelin 40+ years following their breakup. Rock on dude!!!

[@SilverloverFred]

No shit you like it. They only sold 300 million records
