Cashmere is the fabric; Kashmir is a geographical location in the India/Pakistan/China areas, however, this song has nothing to do with Kashmir; instead it was written about a trip Jimmy and Robert took to Morocco, and how they drove around in the desert, met people in the marketplaces, and could really explore because no one there knew about Led Zeppelin. Both Robert and Jimmy had been very interested in the music from that area for a long time because it was highly rhythmic, almost trance inducing, and they tried to bring back their interpretation of it in this song as well as other Zep songs. This song was released in 1975 and yes, there were horns and strings on it which were arranged by bassist John Paul Jones.

Kashmir is basically their dreams about traveling through exotic lands. Zeppelin also mentions a desert and his Shagri La, referring to the coldest desert in the world located in Jammu and Kashmir, meaning to say it’s a paradise. Zep wanted to be known for another song besides Stairway to Heaven so in 1975 Kashmir was released. I feel they succeeded with this one.

This is one if my favourite ZEP songs! Robert Plant visited Morocco on numerous occasions and this song was inspired by those visits. Kashmir is a place but Morocco is the inspiration. Cool story told by Geddy Lee from Rush. He and his wife were on a bicycle tour through Morocco and they were at their hotel and as Geddy was going into his hotel room Robert Plant walked out of his room across the hall. They both looked at each other and went what? Later when Geddy and his wife were having dinner Robert came over and they chatted for awhile. They exchanged numbers and kept in touch.

This was a time when many rock bands began to mess around with symphony orchestras. I think this is a masterpiece.

At their farewell concert back in 2007 Robert changed the lyric "Leave the path that led me to that place" To "This is the band who led me to this place" Always thought that was a wonderful nod to the rest of the boys.

Released in 1975. This album was epic, as were their songwriting abilities. In an era where many were singing of sex, drugs and R&R, they were delving into much deeper areas. I grew up in the best musical generation. This release was the the year before I graduated HS.

My hay day too and still the music of that era is played in my home daily.

A lot of reasons to love this song: John Paul Jones’ exotic keyboards, Plant’s raw vocals, but for me it’s Bonham’s backbone on drums that makes this song special. The LEAST important part of the song are the lyrics and their interpretation. Kashmir is a lush place in NW India, yet the lyrics speak of desert, sun and of sand. And the music evokes the the Sahara desert. Plant often used lyrics as notes to play on his voice (a musical instrument)-for sound and creating a vibe. In other words, the lyrics are not there to tell a story, but rather to evoke a hypnotic feeling such as you’d get while driving for hours through an unchanging expanse… like the Sahara desert.

I was raised on this music, and this is my favorite Zeppelin song! A rabbit hole well worth going down, they have so many incredible tracks.

Originally titled Driving To Kashmir, the song had begun as a lyric Plant had been inspired to write in the autumn of 1973 after a long, seemingly never-ending drive through “the waste lands”, as he put it, of southern Morocco. It's meaning had nothing to do with Kashmir, in northern India, at all. As Plant explained Kashmir's meaning to Cameron Crowe, it was about the road journey itself rather than a specific geographical location: “It was a single-track road which neatly cut through the desert. Two miles to the east and west were ridges of sand rock. It looked like you were driving down a channel, this dilapidated road, and there was seemingly no end to it.” Hence, Plant said, the opening lyric: ‘Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dreams.’

About 90% of the 1970s generation was conceived to this song 😂.

We all wanted to go to Kashmir then, most of us didn't make it, but at least we got to sample the horticulture ;-) Legendary song, thanks for your review

Robert Plant came up with the lyrics for the song while traveling in Mumbai in 1972. The musical part came from band members meeting with several Indian musicians. The song was released on the "Physical Graffiti" album in 1975.

The drums sound is absolutely another level

Kashmir is Plants journey through a desert in southern Morocco. He described is a very straight rode with nothing but sand and ridges on either side. It has nothing to do with Kashmir in northern India

I've listened to and loved Led Zeppelin from their begining (yes, I'm old)! You just have to mentally and physically move with and feel their music! Don't try to analyze their lyrics, they mean what you want then to mean. 😉

This is one of the few songs that prove that if you know what you're doing, the drums and guitars don't have to be in the same time signatures in a rock song ;) -- makes one wonder, early model for Tool?

Zeppelin was a mesh of hard rock, folk, funk, blues, and world music all in one. Helped inspire many rock and metal bands even to this day. If you want to see how much influence they have, check out their Kennedy center honor performances. Foo Fighters, Lenny Kravitz, Kid Rock and Heart.

I love the way Bonham takes what seems to be a simple drum piece and weaves it throughout the song. Changes, stutter steps, it al blends wonderfully. Suggestions? You can toss a pebble and hit an iconic song anywhere in their catalog, but 'Over the Hills and Far Away', 'Ramble On', 'The Ocean', 'Fool in the rain' , 'In my time of dying'...

As rappers, you will be able to appreciate this: The orchestral sounds you were hearing were made by the world's 1st sampler - a tape-based sampling keyboard called a Mellotron which was being used widely at this time by the Beatles, the Moody Blues, Genesis, Yes, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, etc. - all the head music bands.

I've decided to just interpret every Led Zep song as being about Middle Earth. Somehow it even makes it better

Do yourselves a favor and watch the live version of this from Celebration Day. It blows the studio version out of the water! Jason Bonham goes absolutely ape on the drums!

The reason why this song is one of the greatest song of all time is because it has mystical vibe that makes you trance. Try listening in a room by yourself at least 5 times.

Led Zeppelin was the band most frequently played on the radio, that I recall, from my childhood (I was born in the 70's). As a teen, I went out a purchased all of their albums, reliving the music from that time and experiencing songs I had never heard before. Led Zeppelin would ultimately be the band that made me want to listen to (real) *metal*, most specifically, the last song (Wearing And Tearing) from their last album (CODA) which was actually a collection of songs they had written in the past, but was never released on any of their earlier albums. I highly recommend 'Wearing And Tearing'. It was by far unlike anything Zeppelin had ever released before. It if weren't for them, that album, that song, I probably would have never explored metal any further.

This is a Rock ANTHEM my friends! One of the best Rock songs ever! 🎸

I love Led Zeppelin since i hear them for the first time in the 70's ! This song is one of the greatest songs they ever wrote and i love it ! Greatings and love from germany ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

John Bonham’s drumming was unmatched. His son, Jason Bonham, looked to his “three uncles” as he called Robert Plant, Jimmy Paige and Jon Paul Jones, to guide him and now he plays with Zeppelin as a major driver with his uncles

You have described the flavor of this song perfectly. I have always loved “Kashmir” a a fantasy of a man on a camel in a desert yearning for his love. I have been a Zep fan for nearly 40 years and saw them twice!

Just pure legends. One of my all time favorite bands. EVER. Excellent road trip music 🖤❤️‍🔥🖤❤️‍🔥🖤❤️‍🔥 (and baby making music)

This song came out in 1975 in their Physical Graffiti album.

I'm 76. We called this hard rock. When the Beatles went on a spiritual journey to India, George Harrison learned to play the most difficult instrument in the world. The sitar. He used it in their songs from their psychedelic period. Many bands picked up on the sounds of the middle, far and southeast countries that gave their music a mystical quality, though few had the ability to play the sitar.

I think Robert is talking about a spiritual awakening of some sort. He's contemplating a destiny in which he reads himself for decisions to be made and which path to take thanks from mystics and or gurus from Kashmir which borders Pakistan and India

The Ocean, also the live version of Nobody’s Fault But Mine

If you haven't done Immigrant Song, it's a must. Ten Years Gone is also a beautiful track.

I grew up on this music. In fact, I still have this vinyl album from my parents that I grew up hearing. I always tell people - My parents infused my DNA with music like this. It's as much a part of the fabric of my life as my own blood.

Gotta do "Dancing Days" now that spring is here!!! Or the "Rain Song" both GREAT songs!

Surprised nobody has mentioned Bonzo's drum sound. This album was recorded at a place called Headley Grange. It was a big, old building, originally used as a workhouse for the poor and infirm back in the 1800's. It was bought and converted into a private residence in 1870. By the 1960's and 70's, it was being used as a rehearsal space and recording venue. Zeppelin used it to record various albums there. Bonham wasn't happy with the drum sound he was getting, so he set his drums up in the large entrance hall and hung mics over the bannisters of the stairways 3 floors up. This gave him the booming, resonant, echo-ey sound he wanted.

Yes, it's one of their biggest songs. I love it. It was released in 1975. It's about the journey to Kashmir, but not the destination. Apparently it was a single track dirt road with drop offs on either side.

great reaction guys. speaking of Areosmith, Nobodys Fault. lol. lots of love guys

One of my favourite songs ever and an unbeatable riff. Smokey smashed the lyrical analysis but Kashmir is a place.

I'm 62, grew up with Zep, Skynyrd etc on the radio and in my blood, its great to see folks in their 20's, 30's etc, falling in love with this music, and seeing the music i grew up with, being listened to, and raving about. Wonderful to see.

I loved this reaction. Your interpretation was way better than I did as a 70s stoner. I was 13 when that song came out. Ive owned and worn out an LP, an 8 track tape, a cassette, and a CD. Of that album. Its still one of my all time favorites. Honestly I only had about 75% of the words to Kashmir right until today. Thanks fellas

The 3/4 shuffle time makes you want to dance and move while the middle-eastern pentatonic scale, played in a DADGAD tuning brings that meditative, mystical feel. Kashmir is like the oldest of the old Blues came together with Ireland, Arabia and India to make a song for the ages

Jimmy page originally said that this riff was a throw away, but one day in the studio he played around with it and it became this masterpiece! I highly recommend the film it might get loud, awesome piece of musical history

You should check out the live version of this from their elder years in the one off O2 reunion concert. Mind blowing in their 60's!

One of the aspects I love about this song (and Stairway) is that there's no chorus. 👍🏽🤘🏽🔥

Sometimes I feel so old, but watching you two enjoy what I grew up on makes me so appreciative of growing up in the 70s. Zeppelin gave me freedom!

This was what my teenage uncles and their friends got caught listening to this song and smoking weed by my grandpa! I went back in the tool shed where the record was and I got into Led Zeppelin and let me tell you this is one group I still listen to and my kids listen to them too !

Yes!!!! Great song! So glad y'all are doing it!!! Awesome! Loved the breakdown of the lyrics! Have a great week guys!Thanks again!❤️🤓

You should check out another banger of theirs, Dazed and Confused

In one interview Robert Plant was asked which is one of his favourite LZ songs & he said it’s Kashmir I was lucky to see Led Zeppelin in the 70’s best time ever

How fun are you two! This song is from my time zone and it makes me sooo happy to see and here you two enjoy it so much.
