Possibly the tastiest bass line in rock n roll by one of the greatest players of the instrument!

[@davescurry69]

That's some of the best bass playing I've ever heard. Man, John Paul Jones has got some serious, serious chops. The song is based around the Howlin' Wolf classic, "Killing Floor", with just a touch of Robert Johnson's "Travelling Riverside Blues" thrown in for good measure.

[@StillColour]

Appreciate the knowledge Dave!

@@StillColour Hey, my pleasure, man.

[@johndrake3472]

Totally agree

[@doughickeytheyaretheebeste7316]

Yes indeed

[@goldboy150]

The bass in this is one of those things where once you hear it, that’s all you hear. It’s amazing bass work.

[@ginger4141]

That baseline is 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯

[@BBaldwin]

They were, are and WILL ALWAYS BE the ultimate rock band…

[@antarcticorb9197]

Correct...you listened and didn't interrupt the song. I appreciate that!

[@StillColour]

Thank you, i appreciate you :)

[@petergullick1500]

The smile says it all. This is one of zeps smoothest songs. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@henriettaskolnick4445]

Yes, you totally hit the nail on the head; he's in a bad relationship but the sex is good which is a recurring theme in blues music in general; the "wicked woman" who casts her nefarious spell through sex. This is a combination of Howlin' Wolf and Robert Johnson songs - two blues legends. The fast part of the song is what used to be called a "rave up" and it was meant to get the audience up on their feet and dancing. You will always get something different with Zep and will always inspire different moods/emotions.

[@27thangel23]

Henriette- I congratulate you on tiptoeing through the verbal minefield so delicately. Still Colour gets it, but you explain it so much better. Please permit me to add: Howling Wolf, "Killing Floor" and Robert Johnson, “Traveling Riverside Blues”... I'm thinking some of the younger folks might key on them. As usual, my misspelling of your name is intended with respect, not sloppiness. Peace and be safe.

[@henriettaskolnick4445]

@@27thangel23 Indeed, I debated whether to include the respective songs this pulls from. Thank you for the reminder that it's good to share the history, detail, etc. because you never know how that might benefit someone.

Why? Are you not thinking it's the truth? The women, are always, playing the angels, but, they are worth that men, when they are angry! And, of course they are using their bodies, to manipulate the men! I'M, just, coming out of a shit relationship like that! She fucked me deeply! I needed love, and sex, too, of course, she took advantage about me, I gave her everything, and, finally, she gave me..... NOTHING! 😂🤮😭Maybe, as a woman, you're thinking that those lyrics are not true, but, as a man, I know there are! (sorry for the mistakes, I'm French, English isn't my native language).... And, it's not a bad message to attack you OK! I, just, lived that experience, with that kind of woman..... KISSES FROM FRANCE..... ✌️🌹🇫🇷😂

No band before or since could do a song like this.Bluesy,basey,and hard rock sexy.

I luv how you mentioned at The beginning of this reaction “this song could be about squeezing 🍋 lemons! Lmao. You can say that again bro! I luv your reactions and it’s time to get the Led out. Rock on!!¡

[@StillColour]

Haha with Led Zep I really don't know what to expect, safe to say it was about more than making a refreshing drink 😂 Thanks for giving this a watch bro!

[@richdiana3663]

The band was pure genius.

[@custardflan]

John Paul Jones shines on the bass.

[@williamjackson1819]

Love to watch reactions to The Lemon Song especially when the appropriate lyrics get heard. 😅

[@robc.8269]

Led Zeppelin is a Blues Rock band absolutely. Please checkout "Babe, I'm gonna leave you", it's off their first album. "Lemon song" was on the second album & yes most of their songs are about women.

[@artbagley1406]

I swear JPJ on bass is plucking 32nd notes on those runs. They're so clear and distinct! What skill!!! Robert's vocals, early in his career, were JUST FORMING -- hints of greatness to come. Page showing his lightning flashes of fretwork. Nothing needs be said about Bonzo's rhythm machine.

[@brianclark9144]

I'm gonna leave my "children" down on this killin' floor. LOL

[@christianwilliamson9752]

I always thought it meant he'd drop his load

[@dominicpelle7841]

Yeah yeah... everyone's on point as usual, but that bass line *****

[@58andyr]

Yes, mainly blues (and great blues at that!) and FUNK and soul and RocknRoll. I love this combination and so do zillions of others!

[@fewwiggle]

Yes, very "live" feel to this song (much like all the songs off of their first album -- which you would love as well). Anyway, I think they should rename this "The Bass Guitar Song".... :-)

[@BBaldwin]

If I remember correctly, I read somewhere they DID record this live in the studio… over course, over dubs were added later…

[@Wreck-it_Ralph]

JpJ was is a beast on bass. Ramble on is another song that the bass is amazing

[@fattwat1]

Yeh led zeppelin masters of blues/rock

[@artbagley1406]

Otherwise called ELECTRIFIED BLUES!!!

[@tanyaweathersby9393]

Robert Plant is fire!

[@trendydelquendy]

I think any LZ song where Jones & Bonham are holding down a big RnB groove are my favourites. Trampled Underfoot espesh :)

[@ronniel879]

I can remember back in the 70’s this song was never played on the radio due to content !!! Lol

Great reaction my brother!!!! You know how to react let it play diding on the groove! These guys were beyond BADDASS I saw them three times live in the 70s. Killer Band !!!!

[@davidcarter4247]

The line about squeezing his lemon is an old blues line first recorded in the 1920s. Yes it is a sexual reference. Indeed most of lyrics in the Lemon Song are old blues lines. The bad woman, great sex is a recurring theme in blues going back to the beginning. Led Zeppelin delved deep into the blues for its inspiration and the sexual references flowed. From giving her every inch of his love in Whole Lotta Love to Custard Pie to the double entendre laden Trampled Under Foot the lines came from the blues. What Led Zeppelin did, especially live, was remove any doubt what they were singing about. The were not the greatest live band ever for nothing.

[@StillColour]

Oh i see, thanks for giving me the knowledge, I would of never thought that it came from an old blues song.

[@heliotropezzz333]

I always wondered about the lines about taking his money and giving it to another man. Are the lyrics possibly referring to a man who is regularly seeing a prostitute who gives his money to her pimp?

My interpretation is ‘murdering’ that #%^*+ down on the killing floor. Either way. Good react. Their music keeps you on your toes wondering where it’s gonna go. Totally blues.
