What a song. A genuine masterpiece. That middle section always sounds like it's going to morph into something just short of free jazz. Jones in particular really shines on this one. The live version is arguably even better.

Always gives me goosebumps every time I hear this, takes me right back to when I first heard the album. The live version is even better!

Awesome reaction. This has always been in my top 3 Zep songs. Achilles Last Stand is # 1. The 1973 live version of No Quarter will blow your mind. It's about 11 minutes long with the most incredible guitar solo. Be careful you don't listen to the 8 minute condensed version without the solo.

Yes Achilles Last Stand must be listened to, agree 💯

John Bonham was a drumming God back in the 70’s. His sound was as near to perfect as you can get.

Bonzo was a phenomenal drummer. Him and Moon are my favorites. Sometimes people new to Zeppelin overlook JPJ though, when you listen to these songs tune in to the bass and keyboards, he's an amazing musician too. All of them were just meant to play together, there will never be music made like this again.

"It's seven minutes long, which means it's going to fucking destroy me!" Superb.

I am so glad I grew up in the Era I did. We had some of the most amazing music 🎶 stuff you just don't hear very often anymore. You know you're listening to something great when you get lost and forget ❤️❤️

You'll have to listen to In My Time of Dying.

Watch the live version from the movie The Song Remains the Same. 1973 movie from Led Zeppelin . The live version of No Quarter will blow your mind. Those four musicians created magic together.

the live version of this from msg 73 is INCREDIBLE!

Led Zeppelin drew inspiration from all sorts of genres from all over the world. Can't wait for you to check out 'Kashmir'.

Watch it live 1973 Madison Square garden. One of the best live solos ever. The concert is epic, since I've been loving you, dazed and confused, while lotta love. Simply so much better live. For a drumming masterclass, Kashmir 1979 knebworth concert. Blow your mind.

The drummer, John Bonham, was the heart of the band. He is widely considered to be the BEST rock drummer that ever lived. It's perfectly understandable if you're the type of listener that follows the beat to be swept away by the drumming in Zeppelin songs. And, you're right there's strong Pink Floyd vibes in No Quarter. I never really thought of it but after listening to a lot of Pink Floyd the past several years I see the similarities now. Fantastic reaction to this chill track.

I remember in high school jazz band, we had a guest lecturer. A jazz professor from the nearby university. Talked to us about finding the rhythmic pocket & said the greatest example is John Bonham. Great reaction my friend.

John Paul Jones (bassist) on keys. Such a great song.

This song is epic from the most epic band. No other band like them. Every song is awesome.

I knew you’d love this. Led Zeppelin is made of four geniuses. This song shows us the genius of their bassist/keyboardist, John Paul Jones, the main composer of this song. I suggest sometime, either on your own or as a reaction video, you check out the much longer live version from the concert film “The Song Remains the Same.” It’s 12 minutes compared to this one at 7. In some live versions Jones adds solos in it & takes it to 20 minutes of ecstasy. Not all KZread videos of the film version are equal. Find one that has good video as well as audio. By the way, the bass in the concert version is done by Jones with foot pedals, like pipe organs!

Jonesy was playing a Hammond B3 at Madison Square Gardens, which has a pedalboard built in. It was still a couple of years before Moog would bring out the Taurus bass pedals, as used famously by Mike Rutherford in Genesis. By 'In Through the Out Door', he had acquired the Yamaha GX-1 'Dream Machine', which also featured a pedalboard ( well originally it had, & when he sold it to Keith Emerson, but it emerged a couple of years ago at auction, missing some parts, including the pedals ).

@@chassetterfield9559 Thanks. I love it when a comment I make inspires someone like you to tell us all sorts of neat facts about the music & musicians. What’s cool about pedals is that the player can use two hands to get the full keyboard music while still adding bass, unlike ground breaking Doors’ Ray Manzarek having to use his left hand to get the bass.

I'm loving your choices of songs to do. And I like how you're doing primarily studio versions instead of live versions. There seem to be a lot of people that don't know that you just want to listen and DO NOT want to watch any video while you're listening. The studio recordings sound so much better than live recordings 99% of the time. I am SO enjoying what you're doing!

It’s not either or. It’s both and. We don’t have to sacrifice live versions for studio ones or vice versa. But one thing stands out to me regarding Mark. He often expresses dissatisfaction that a performance isn’t longer. But often it is a live version that IS longer. He deserves to know he has the option of enjoying a longer, live version if he wants to.

This is the perfect reaction for him to be introduced to the band TOOL. They do an amazing cover of No Quarter. Hector will LOSE HIS FUCKING MIND!!! TOOL - No Quarter. Make it happen!

Led Zepplin - The Rain Song!!!!!

Can definitely see where you are getting the Floyd vibes.

Ramble On, over the hills and far away. More zep to be amazed by

Great reaction, do try the 11 minute live MSG 1973, heavier AND trippier

No one NO ONE hit the skins as hard as Bonzo man ❤

This is gonna blow his mind! Now try “song remains the same/rain song” live from Madison square garden

This is how ALL reviews should be done! Love the energy and how real you are!

Top five Led Zeppelin songs: Stairway To Heaven, No Quarter, Whole Lotta Love, Kashmir, Achilles Last Stand. No, wait... First phrase in Stairway where Bonham plays the ride cymbal, is the best Bonham snare fill/ghost note groove. 👍

They are all goats in their own rights they gonna slow you down with this one but you're gonna love it

Bonham beat the drums like they owed him money. Might I suggest "As I Lay Dying" and "Fool In the Rain"?

Song is awesome! Great reaction!

I am glad you finally listened to this song. It is quite different than the other LepZep-songs you listened to. Next on the list is Kashmir, right?❤

Yesss! Best subscription I've ever made. You've mentioned Zep as a Lord Of The Rings reminder. Definitely need to add Ramble On and Misty Mountain Hop to your list. I f'ing love this channel.

Another Zep song that I think has Floyd vibes to it is "In the Light". It's my favorite Zep song just a little ahead of this "No Quarter".

Believe me, I know how you feel. I felt the same way when I first heard Led Zeppelin in my teens. I couldn't believe how crazy good they were. John Bonham just drove all the songs in the right direction, and there was no one like him, which is why Zeppelin disbanded after his passing. He was one of a kind. Robert Plant, in his younger day, could reach well above high C in his vocal, and nobody sang like him either at least when they first started out. When Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore first heard Led Zeppelin, he fired his then singer for Deep Purple and sent him scrambling to find a singer to compete with Robert. That's how much they changed the whole landscape of what was going on at the time.

love your reactions Mark. yes, you take me back to the first time of hearing LZ every time. thank you.

Hector, my man! A great reaction to a great song from a great band. It does me heart good to see your generation discover the songs, and bands, that I grew up with. If you haven't noticed already, when Led Zeppelin wasn't singing about women and sex (a great hook for a young buck like I was), they delved deeply into topics like Fantasy novels and Norse/Celtic mythology. This song was one of those deep dives: ancient warriors setting off on a risky mission, expecting no mercy from the enemy and not giving any. This is where the title "No Quarter" comes from. If you want to check out another Zeppelin song with that Pink Floyd vibe, I would recommend "The Rain Song" from their Houses of the Holy album. This song illustrates Jimmy Page (guitarist) and John Paul Jones' (bassist) ability to compose, and infuse, music with orchestral elements. It's a truly beautiful song. Sorry for the long rant, Hector. Just keep on doing you. Can't wait to see where your journey of musical discovery takes you next. And as always, ROCK ON! 🤟🖖✌️

Nice, honest reaction!!!

Funny you mention Macky D at the start. Did you notice he has "no quarter" tatted under his eye? I think NoQuarter is one of the baddest phrases ever. You should put it on your next shirt... "haters get no quarter" 😆 🤣 😂 Led zeppelin is one of my favorites. Up there with the Eagles and Meatloaf in my brain.

I think you’re ready to check out In My Time of Dying from their album Physical Graffiti. I’m certain you’ll enjoy it. Cheers mate.

You are the best my friend..

So diverse!! 1973 MSG live is superb!!

Yeah it was Page's guitar and Plant's vocals that got me hooked on Zeppelin but after nearly 40 years of listening to this band, it is Bonham's drums that stand out the most, and some of those JPJ base lines are just perfect. The piano in this song is just gold! Back when i first got into the devil's lettuce my mates and i would literally close the door and turn out the lights whilst listening to this song stoned...probably a close second to Shine on you Crazy Diamond by Pink Floyd, for that.

One of the greatest songs ever recorded

LOVE your reaction to this, Hector! 🤗🤗😁. One of my favorites by my favorite band. Another that has a similar vibe is In The Light.

Yes, you do seem to get excited with your Led Zeppelin reviews .. Many, many more surprises to come for you, young Sir!!

Thats a rad vibe, man. 😎

Hiya Mark.... I've watched a lot of Zep videos from you by now and obviously the drums are making an impression on you, it did on us at the time... And I was trying to think what it was that makes them so different and ok, I get the snare sound is different, and I have been listening to them since 1970 and I've just realised that conpared to so many of their contemporaries the drums are mixed so much higher than others around that time.Thank you for letting me cogitate on that one..... You little scamp... That was singing not guitar at the end by the way.... Robert at his very best wailing.... echoed to fuck of course. Keep on Rocking.

Released the same month as Dark Side of the Moon, and before Wish You Were Here, Animals, or The Wall.

Time for Led Zeppy!! 💜💜💜🤗🤗🤗 Lmao! Wassup and wusah! Perfect song for visualization! 😊😊😊

Love this song! When I saw it pop up on my feed I couldn’t start it fast enough. Knew you’d like it! Rock on, my friend!! 🤘🏻🔥

Peak Zeppelin, right there!

Taking another trip on the Mothership.

As a baby boomer, I love the youthful enthusiasm of the reaction. We were practically weaned on this music.

Loved this reaction. This song does the same to me. One of my faves by them. Thanks for the awesome reaction ❤

Hiya Hector. Love Led Zeppy!

Love your reactions, especially all your Led Zeppelin ones. You mention so much how much you love the drums, I think that you should check out Moby Dick, which is the ultimate John Bonham showcase. I recommend the live version at Royal Albert Hall 1970. The studio version is great, but the live version is spectacular

Maybe you could check out BOTH versions that everyone is talking about..( in the same video...)..the live version from 'The Song Remains The Same'.....as well as this one. 'The Song Remains The Same' version was a concert recorded in Madison Square Garden ( in the late 70? ). As far as I know....THAT was the first version I heard. SEE the majesty that is Led Zeppelin.

I can't believe you haven't reacted to arguably Led Zeppelin's best song... Kashmir.

This is a favorite of mine. Even so, you REALLY should listen to the TOOL cover!

One of my absolute favorites from Led Zeppelin.

Really want to freak out watch the movie song remains the same. That's the nineteen seventy three concert at madison square garden which I attended

That “something” about Zeppelins drums is John Bonham being the greatest to ever live

You feel just like I felt 45 years ago when I heard this for the very first time!!

Now This is my favorite song on this album. Fucking love it love it love it.😅

REACT TO RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE! They will blow your mind the lyrics in Bullet In the Head is so heavy.

In my time of dying is a Masterpiece!

Love The Ocean & rover. So many to choose from. Kashmir is awesome

This was so good I watched it twice 👍

Want this on my gravestone.

John paul jones plays the keyboards on this plus he plays the baseline on the base pedals below

Has always been one of my favorite Zep songs. It bangs so hard it feels like it's rumbling out of the depths of the earth. Literally the heaviest song ever made in my opinion.

you want Zep drums.......When the Levee Breaks form LZ IV still online arguments today on how they were recorded.

Definitely Pink Floyd vibes this song. Love this song and the album.

That's the best reaction to that song I have ever seen I'm going to watch it again and again

At first I didn’t recognize the name but for some reason I knew all the words. Boys club dances and my junior high band teacher playing this. So darlin when are you going to play “DARLENE “ ??? It’s on the Led Zeppelin CODA album
