As I am watching this particular reaction, I had the realization that while the two of you in the last two years have been exposed to an immense amount of fabulous music and great artists, you've never had one of the most important experiences we did growing up with this music. That being experiencing an entire album for the first time. There was something truly magical about coming home from the record store, taking the shrink wrap off the Record, putting it onto the turntable and staring at the Album art and reading the liner notes as you heard those songs for the first time. So many of the songs you listen to are from such classic albums. Like Led Zeppelin 4, or Springsteen's Born to Run, or the who's who's next, or the Eagles Hotel California. I'm not sure how you would incorporate it into the channel, but if you did it would bring you so much closer feeling the music the way we did Growing Up with it. Maybe you can do one album one or two tracks at a time over the course of a week. Generally considered the best rock album of all time is The Beatles Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band would be an awesome place to start. Not sure if you want to do this, but Led Zeppelin was always an album band not a singles band, and that's what made me think of this...

One of the rare bands where every member was absolutely essential.

I was born in 55 and for me Led Zeppelin is the Goat. And they still are. Incredible.

Greatest band of all time. What they did in their first 7 years is beyond any other bands accomplishments. It's not even a discussion!

You can never go wrong with Led Zeppelin. They drove us through the 70's. Thanks for the reaction, I love that you love them.

This song has one of the greatest ends in the history of music by far

Needless to say, this is a deep rabbit hole to go down. Some other Led Zep songs that are musts include: Kashmir, Immigrant Song, Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, In the Evening, The Rain Song, Fool in the Rain, All of my Love. It goes on and on.

My absolute favorite Led Zeppelin song! We used to blast this out on the water when we went boating with my parents in the 90s. Reminds me of nothing but good times and summer fun. Houses of the Holy is beautiful from beginning to end.

I think this makes twenty-one LZ songs you've done (more than ANY other artist or band), and this is one of their best. What a great choice. I think you'd love "The Ocean" for your next one. Great riff.

My uncle turned me onto Led Zeppelin at age 5 and I’m 54 now still listening to Led Zeppelin and still loving it! My uncle passed away in 2003 and we played Stairway to Heaven and the Rain Song at his funeral. I turned my son onto to Led Zeppelin at 5 and he is 13 now and plays drums just like I did and my uncle sang and played guitar so music is in our blood.

Zeppelin is the greatest at acoustic and electric guitars and the bass and John Bonham on drums! The best ever!!

When my husband when back to college years ago, his project for class was to stand in front of the class & perform something. He chose to sing this song . He brought his friend who plays guitar with him, & they totally jammed out to this song. LoL😂 If only I could have been a fly on the wall.😂

What I think I like most about Led Zeppelin is that every song, even on the same album, sounds completely different, though you can here any one of their songs and tell instantly that it is Zeppelin.

Zeppelin is so great At at acoustic , hard rock! This song is one of my all time favorites! Can’t ever go wrong with the Best band ever! So original! There will never be another!!❤️

Can you believe when I was 14 years old I stayed home to listen to my dad's Led Zeppelin albums? I didn't go to the movie theater or the mall when my friends asked to join. No, I preferred to stay at home next to the CD player. I still don't regret it.

I love reading other people's comments about their experiences. Those of us old enough to remember vinyl albums and the importance that they had on generations is pretty important. It is something most younger folks today did not experience and won't understand buying an album, bringing it home, putting the needle on the record and sitting on the floor in your bedroom mesmerized by the album covers and liner notes, reading the lyrics and listening to the music with such intent & purpose and wanting know every song on the album. Today people are fed songs, specifically designed to you so that you rarely get the full understanding of a band or artist's work. Many times the other songs on an album that radio did not play were so much better. B-sides on 45's were often times some of the coolest songs and we were fortunate to have radio DJ's that had the freedom to play what they wanted, not what corporate radio demanded so we were treated to songs that we may not have heard. Those days are gone and many of us look back fondly on them. Music, thankfully, brings us together and it has been such a treat watching you both grow into the music of the past. Keep it up!

I had this album (actually I had them all). Jimmy Page is AWESOME on the guitar. He played on the BBC when he was just a kid. When John Bonham died in 1980 (he drank himself to death), the band broke up. They knew they had something special and that without Bonham, it was over. He was irreplaceable. I remember the day he died. I was a teenager and I actually cried my eyes out.

They are everlasting, never get old, multigenerational

The mix of acoustic and electric guitars and their tones is awesome.

Robert Plant had a Grammy winning album with Allison Krauss, a bluegrass star instrumentalist and singer.

This album was a bit of a departure from their previous album and included a real mix of songs. You should check out the haunting, ethereal "No Quarter" off this album. It has an absolutely KILLER riff.

Yes!! One of my favorites. It's a joy to see you grooving to it for the first time. Like most Zeppelin songs, it takes you on journey.

This is such a freakin great song by Zeppelin.

When I was young, I played Led Zeppelin every day and now that I'm the opposite of young, I still listen to Zep every day. Their music has aged well and demands your attention.

The engineering of the recording is still so amazing to my ears even so many years later, every track they made slaps on this song.

Led Zeppelin's music is so multi dimensional. I think it is awesome that you can experience and enjoy yesterday's music. My grandparents probably wouldn't have allowed this album in their house, but that is because they couldn't understand what all the "noise" was about. Like you said, all of the guys in Led Zeppelin could have had a career on their own...so it is so extra special to have all that talent in just one band. They had it all! My older brother is the one who introduced me to "The Who", "Black Sabbath", "Deep Purple", and so much more. I was still a little girl when he was a teenager. I love the 60's and 70's. While there were some very talented bands in the 80's, music styles changed in subtle ways. Thank you for bringing my old albums to life again in this computerized and technological world of today. They did it all without all the tweaking in voice and sound. They really WERE that good that they didn't need it.

Houses of the holy best LED ZEPPELIN ALBUM

I remember going to band camp freshman year. We all had name buttons we made ourselves. This junior trumpet player's button had "Mellow is the man" written across the top. I asked him what that meant, and he told me about this song, and Led Zeppelin. That was circa 1981. Been my favorite ever since.

This is my very favorite Zeppelin tune. Starts off slowly, then bangs out the rock. Brings back wonderful memories and vibes.

Led Zeppelin is life. It'll never be antiquated.

Love this man’s voice so much

Led Zeppelin has some other great songs that feature acoustic guitar. Particularly on Led Zeppelin 3, where half of the album was made using acoustics. A couple of good ones for you to check out are "Gallows Pole" and "Tangerine".

My first day here in California (1987), my brother was playing Led Zeppelin's The Ocean. Love for y'all to react to it.

Another example of Zeppelin’s compositional greatness: Sweeping dynamics, light and shade. No other band did it at their level.

Oh, I just love this song! This is my most favorite Led Zepplin song!

Page on the twelve-string is so awesome. This is one of their prettiest songs, that also rocks out. Have you guys done Going to California? Also has a very pretty acoustic feel.

Rob would be blown away by "The Ocean"! Led Zeppelin, of course.

Glad Amber mentioned JPJ. I feel secure knowing he is there, quietly keeping it together.

Another song that's kind of like this and also just a huge fan favorite like this one, is called Ramble On, if you haven't done it already. Everything about it is totally amazing, just like in this one. I love what John Bonzo is doing with that heavy kick drum and closing hi-hat on the off beats, and then combined with JPJ's Incredible bass line, it adds this really funky feel to it but it's still heavy but it's also still light and wandering, it's just a fantastic combination.

You got it! The synthesis of electric and acoustic. Zed Zeppelin's trade mark!

My all time favorite Zeppelin song. If I get stressed, my go to.

Oh don't get me started! I could write volumes about my love for Zep! You are so right, each of them are amazing artists in their own right, and when they came together they created magic. Imma total sucker for guitar so Jimmy is my fave member, but I love each of them. I could sit for hours and listen to nothing but Pagey play! There is also a special place in my heart for Bonzo. This song is a particular fave, but if I were to suggest a song that really showcases each of them, it would be "Since I've Been Loving You". That song just drips with passion!

THIS was the first song that introduced me to Zep so many years ago.

never have seen a better show than zeppelin live and i have seen all the best bands

One of my all-time favorites from Zeppelin
