Y'ALL WERE RIGHT...GENERATIONAL TALENT!! Led Zeppelin 'Whole Lotta Love' || Reaction

[@ShakuurReacts]

Stairway to Heaven and Kashmir reactions are both out now!

[@artmanjohn2]

I was born in 1949 and by the time I was 22 years old I saw Led Zeppelin in concert 4 times!! I had a T-Shirt made a few years ago that said: "I may be old but I got to see all the really cool bands!" You just had to been there!

[@paulosborne3919]

Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock band of all time. The talent from all four members was on a Mozart-like level. I loved Zeppelin back in the 70's and still do today. Seeing them in concert in the Kingdome was one of my most best memories ever.

[@sprezzatura8755]

You are right about Mozart. If he was around he would have been a huge Zeppelin fan.

[@scottwatson9453]

John Bonham is the drummer and the bassist,keyboards, mandolin multi talented John Paul Jones is the throb of the bands collective heart beat

[@helenespaulding7562]

The very best way to do Zeppelin, if you like them as much as I think you do, is to do it the way we all did back in 1969. Start with first album, first track, and move through their catalogue. It’s a rewarding experience, and you will get a really good foundation in classic rock.

[@kathleenfreeman4065]

Yes it is

[@fredtello]

start with their first album called Led Zeppelin 1 and just work through every song and you will not be disappointed

[@nowhere982]

4 GOATS are Led Zeppelin

[@nigelwright1735]

If you want to hear some great drumming try When the levee break. It’s an old blues song recorded in 1929 reworked by Led Zeppelin

[@DianeLake-sw3ym]

You really need to listen to that song. And play the live version.

Thank you man!

[@gregcable3250]

He is terrific, but I would say Eric is his match as is Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix--as far as blues-rock players. As far as players out of this world--check out the GOAT jazz player, Joe Pass. It kind of depends on what style you like, really. The classical guitarists are fantastic, too.

[@bobbyn.9773]

@@gregcable3250 all great guitarist matey but the thing i love about Pagey is that he can rock play the blues, tradicional English folk music, middle eastern influenced songs etc etc...that said to me the most technically gifted guitarist was Jeff Beck but he really did not write his own music, love Joe Pass and Django..Wes Montgomery as well matey❤🙏 ....and Pagey is a hell of a nice chap as well

[@zeppelinmexicano]

Something special about Led Zep II and this tune. LZ II seemed to redefine so many things about music. It was like crossing a musical Rubicon.

[@joescott8877]

As for pausing, i dont think that many of us mind it, as long as it's niot, you know, every 30 seconds. BUT, we DO like it a LOT if you GO BACK FIVE SECONDS AFTER PAUSING, because otherwise you can miss a cool transition, crucial verse, sense of momentum building, etc. Not just Zeppelin, any song. Just common sense, right? I know a lot of us likely get irritated when we see a reactor digging a song we know and love, and then pause , and then play again, and we're like "AGH! They missed it!" ;)

Do not forget bass player and pianist Mr. John Paul Jones.

"When the levee breaks" is worth a listen.

[@jeffmcelroy5437]

To hear the genius of John Paul Jones, the bassist, do The Lemon Song. The bass line in that one is top shelf.

[@FreakOlds]

Led Zeppelin. Since I’ve been loving you. Live at the Garden 73 Watch this for sure if you’re liking Jimmy Page. Although their entire library is awesome. Enjoy 😉👍

[@DianeLake-sw3ym]

Bonzo - john Bonham - is considered the best drummer ever. And he changed the role of drums in music from being just time keeping in the background to being upfront and important to the band's sound. And Bonzo was heard very loud and clear. Bonzo was also the best friend of singer Robert Pl Robert Plant is seen as the best rock vocalist ever. He has an incredible vocal range that is amazing. But, for all his talent and charisma as a front man Plant always idolized Page. He looked up to Page. Part of it was Pages sheer talent and part was that he took Plant from a struggling unknown vocalist in crappy bands to being internationally a famous person. A success. Exploring Led Zeppelin you will find they are very diverse in the music. They are hard rockers, very deep blues, into the world of English lore and myth, and acoustic. They are not a one trick pony like so many who tried to imitate them in the years since. Unless a band that wants to be like Zeppelin understands their range and diverse music and genres They will always be poor imitators and wannabes.

[@ShakuurReacts]

Yeah from the small sample size I’ve heard from them I feel like they could’ve pulled off any sound they wanted to

[@TalesOfTheRiverBank]

Fair play to you. You're reaction to this song is about the same as mine was 50 years ago.😊 Led Zeppelin were sensational then and they are still sensational now.

[@ShakuurReacts]

They really are

[@trendydelquendy]

Beautiful breakbeaty. Bonham so good.

[@juliemanarin4127]

Watch their live performances!! And Jimmy is the greatest!

[@cdfdesantis699]

Jimmy Page states that Zep never played a song the same way twice, so studio & all live versions will vary. Robert Plant, the vocalist & occasional harmonica player, has one of the most memorable voices in rock. Thanks for your reaction.

[@ShakuurReacts]

Thank you for watching!!

Definitely going to be doing a lot of their songs!

[@johncheney950]

Check out their song called , The Immigrant Song.

[@specialteams28]

Led Zeppelin created an enormous problem in vocabulary when they became known. All agreed calling Led Zeppelin a “group” in the way the Beatles and The Rolling Stones were called “groups” made sense at all lumping them all together. Led Zeppelin was the reason the new word “supergroup” was coined.

[@DianaMiceli-Billingsley-kj4ln]

The GOAT of the Guitar is Stevie Ray Vaughan! #FACTS!

[@dougoneill7266]

Mate, great that you're finding this band. Two tips; Don't pause in guitar solos and lose the captions.

[@thewizard6077]

I just discovered you. I subscribed because you said you would be reacting to studio versions of Led Zeppelin songs, not live versions. I have no interest in watching reactions to live Led Zeppelin videos unless I know the reactor has listened to the studio version first, so that's good you're gonna do it that way. I look forward to watching your reaction to "Stairway to Heaven" and "Since I've Been Loving You". And on a side note, you never wanna pause during a guitar solo, and when you do pause for anything, you should rewind it a little when you come back to the song. Peace

[@southernwanderer7912]

Studio recordings are fine but one of the best parts of Led Zep is their live performances.

[@thewizard6077]

@@southernwanderer7912 Led Zeppelin's studio recordings made them the 5th biggest selling musical artists of all time, behind only Michael Jackson at #4, Garth Brooks at #3, Elvis Presley at #2, and of course the Beatles at #1. Coming at it from the world of Hip Hop, these 1st time listeners aren't going to be rocking out to some song they've never heard before performed live with a lot of improvisation and drawn out instrumental solos. Let them fall in love with the songs first before dipping they're toes in the world of Led Zeppelin live improvisation, you know, the same way you did. You heard the studio recording 1st, fell in love with the song, then sought out alternate takes. Let them do the same. This isn't rocket science.

[@jimdunagan4180]

Like most in the comments i grew up with zeppelin, and my favorites are dazed and confused and no quarter both live version from song remains the same

[@maxbrazil3712]

Guitar gods are ranked by only one standard, that they sit at the round table in Valhalla. Style means nothing, only ability and deification. Charlie Byrd and Jimmie Page are equal, sitting side by side with Jeff Beck, Mark Knopfler, Stevie Ray Vaughan, David Gilmour, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Jaco Pastorius, Bonnie Raitt, Mother Maybelle Carter.... No king or queen, just brothers and sisters of excellence.

[@timothymartin8498]

When you do pause, maybe back it up 10 seconds or so to get back into the vibe!

[@ShakuurReacts]

I will next time! Sorry man

[@dbdeg88]

I don't know if it was a glitch in the video you were reacting to, or in the reaction video itself, but somehow part of the final verse got skipped over, and it was the part containing one of the most suggestive lyrics in the song: "I'm gonna give you every inch of my love". I'm just bummed we didn't get to see you react to that part in particular, because that part usually gets an interesting reaction from first time listeners. Like, if they hadn't already figured out that the song is all about sex, that's the part where they go, "wait a minute..."

[@ShakuurReacts]

Someone told me that the version I listened to cut out some of the actual song…might have to give this song another full listen

[@ShaunWagner]

Robert Plant is a great voalist. Jimmy Page is a great guitarist. John Bonham is a great drummer (too powerful for most bands). But, there is another guy in the band. It is hard to tell from the video. He is barely shown. It is John Paul Jones. Who played bass? John Paul Jones. Who played piano? John Paul Jones. Who payed organ? John Paul Jones. Who played flute? John Paul Jones. Who doubled the rhythm guitar? John Paul Jones. If you dive deep into Led Zeppelin, you begin to appreciate his contributions that tend to go unnoticed. Imagine the songs without bass, without organs, without woodwinds... He is like the glue that holds the other three great musicians together.

[@cmoplay1]

The video of the Hidenburg explosion has nothing to do with the song. These airships were built in Germany and are called Zeppelins. The crash of the Hiddenburg was the end of these airships. Now, the song was written in 1927 about the massive flood that destroyed the Mississippi delta and displaced millions.
