JUST MISSED!!! "Shapes Of Things" just missed making the Billboard's Hot Top 10 chart; it peaked at No. 11 and spent a total of 11 weeks in the Hot Top 100 in 1966!!!
I remember in the 90s there was a BBC documentary series on rock music, and about 10 times they said "the asthmatic Keith Relf". You'd think he had his puffer out after each verse.
um, I'm 56 (I mention my age only so one might imagine that I've heard it all) and my impression of Jimmy Page's solo is that it sounds quite like none other than Jack White of the White Stripes, 40-some years prior of course.
Reminds me of the 9th grade. Spent all my time enjoying the evolution of rock n roll and none of my time on my academic evolution. Rock n roll will never die.
@golperuano I'm not saying there's anyone this level but there are some good people around. Say what you like but I think Smashing Pumpkins is good and so was Nirvana. Music moves on and the talented musicians tend to go into whatever is new and exciting.
@nickshel In total agreement about the merits of those great bands. We should also include Soundgarden, Jane's Addiction, Stone Temple Pilots (maybe). But that music came out almost 20 years ago in the late 80's and early 90's. Incidentally, that was the last great era of rock and roll. But what is coming out lately? Very, very little.
actually alot, two great bands are Radio moscow, and Tyler bryant and the shakedown, Ive seen the latter live and he is probably one if not the greatest young guitarist today
jimmy is out of tune and the solo is a mess. but it was real and the energy and lyrics were what counted. only later did people really give a shit who was playing guitar and how good they were. this was around 1965- black and white and raw.
At least, it's genuine live and not just Jimmy "finger syncing" over Jeff's track, as on quite a few other videos. Things do go a little "off " for whatever reason, but he forges on ahead anyway. That's how it was done then, right along with mispronounced names and flying sticks! By the live '68 album, Jimmy has it down and has put his own stamp on it. The band is really pretty good here overall, McCarty's drumming is great.
Well, even Jimmy Page isn't without fault. It sounds like he started his solo at the wrong fret and never compensated. Still, magnificent footage and performance.
@DoktorFranken ....Who else hates know it all douchbags? If you knew so much how did you not know obama was a fuking hack? Speaking of The Who did Page play with passion and pain? Could Beck smash a guitar better than Hendrix? Pete could and still can!
@JJoneEIGHTY i found that like 3 years ago, he throws it up into the air, it hits jimmy pages guitar, you can hear it, page throws the drumstick. its funny as hell.
@JJoneEIGHTY Ixnay and no way, dude. He's already reaching for and grabbing the other stick he had ready while the one he threw is still falling WAY behind him. This vintage stuff may be magical, but it ain't THAT magical.
Hey guys this is a great song, i was wondering if you guys could go to my page and listen to my new songs and tell me what you think! thanks Everyone its a new band named Communication Eruption!
@Iam18yearsolddddd ..you're an ignorant 18 yr old..that's why you don't like it..and without the yard birds and the movement of the psychedelic rock, which pink floyd literally invented.. there'd be no Zep..i for one am a huge fan of Zeppelin, and have been for yrs, i'm a professional studio and live musician and have been so for 26 yrs.. and if you need a history lesson on any other British rock band, i will be glad to give to you..& you could've used a more constructive word instead of stupid.
@blica1 dude I love Page but face it who cares about yardbirds, pink floyd is one of the best bands and I believe that even Justin Bieber fans have heard about pink floyd, deep purple and zepp but yardbirds?? and listen just how bad that guy sings, h ruined that song. I'm not a studio but I'm a guy who plays guitar, drums and keyboard for 8 years now and the only reason I do that are bands like zepp, deep purple, dio and even psychedelic ones like pink floyd, the doors, jefferson airplane...
@Iam18yearsolddddd jimmy page, eric clapton, paul samwell smith , keith ralph, jeff beck....yeah the yardbirds were crap ! fuck off idiot, you know jack-shit about music. and who the fuck is justin bieber and frankly who gives a fuck.
@paulthepill oh no! you used the mighty google power to find some important rock names, how impressive. Listen idiot I don't have to explain shit to you and I have more knowledge about music than you will ever have and how come zepp is one of the greatest bands ever and yardbirds aren't? Page did rock, even in the yardbirds but the rest was shit, the vocals are so bad... zepp is the real deal and btw, I bet sometimes you lock yourself in your room and dance to justin bieber music, Mr Asshole...
@Iam18yearsolddddd you little mug, as i thought , you know ziltch about music, the names i gave are just a few of the greats that passed through this band, run along now i can hear your mummy calling.
@blica1: Pink Floyd literally invented Psychedelic Rock??? The Yardbirds and The Who were pioneering it as early as '65, and Cream & Hendrix by 1966. When did "See Emily Play" get released - Summer '67? By then, Jefferson Airplane, The Blues Magoos, The Beatles, Count Five, 13th Floor Elevators, The Electric Prunes, and a whole lot of other bands had relased hit records that were in the psychedelic genre. Not knocking Pink Floyd - just keeping the history honest.
@JCProductions75: Awww, you removed your comment. Can't say I blame you. But, for the sake of the others, let's have a look:
"You can't stick to the books when your talkin about music man...Just because those bands "were in the psychedelic genre" doesnt mean they were. Pink floyd to this day is psychedelic rock ... and none of those bands sound like floyd and not really like psychedelic rock either
When we were 20, we thought we knew it all, too - but we weren't stupid enough to tell our fathers what World War II was like.
To say Pink Floyd is "Psychedelic" TODAY - shows you're as musically ignorant as the Polish pinhead who yesterday claimed neither The Ramones or The Clash were Punk Rock. You are taking PROGRESSIVE Rock - and calling it Psychedelic, just as he was taking GRUNGE - and calling it Punk.
BTW: If Jefferson Airplane wasn't psychedelic - NOBODY was. Stop talking trash.
@TubeNumber1USA Lmfao your a little bitch. i erased the comment cause i didnt make it you jackass. my friend did and i didnt like it so i erased it... Fuck off faggot
The Beatles were not as good as Pink Floyd? Be serious...Seriously.
The Beatles triggered a worldwide cultural revolution. On April 4, 1964 The Fabs held the # 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 positions - and 12 had songs in the Billboard Hot 100 in America.
There have been other bands on the level of Pink Floyd - Zeppelin, Stones, The Who, Hendrix, Bay City Rollers . . . There's only been ONE Beatles.
@TubeNumber1USA I really dont care what some stupid chart said aha. I wonder the charts are sayin about about justin bieber today. None of it makes him good. Im not saying that beatles werent good they were great but after a while its as if they stopped careing about what the lyrics were. their earlier shit is great i love it but im mostly about the lyrics. honestly i cant even see the point in comparing any of those bands caused none of them sound like floyd anyway.
Pink Floyd has just never been my thing - neither has Zepplin for that matter. As a musician, I can appreciate technically what they do, but prefer songs that make me want to lose my inhibitions on the dance floor, or fly 105 mph down Main Street while a blonde vixon straps her hands across my engines. Floyd doesn't do that for me. Yardbirds do.
the solo's ins't out of tune. it a jeff beck thing which pagey didn't pull off quite so well. listen to beck bolero and you can see (hear) the same sort of progression, but better pulled off.
I am reading "HAMMER OF THE GODS LED ZEPPELIN UNAUTHORISED" Yes it is with casp! Where the first 40 pages is about jimmy and his yardbirds... SCREW IT
Page was "sloppy" and raunchy when he WANTED to be! He could just as easily be precise and mathematical. One doesn't become a highly sought-after session guitarist at age 18 in London by being "sloppy".
Session guitarists must be impressarios of sorts, called upon to play multitudes of styles.
And for all you folks who think a concert is great if it "sounds like the album", well, that's just plain boring. Why go to the concert, just listen to the album! Page, Beck and Hendrix, all great!
@MrSamram3 Dude...well said. And you know, the Yardbirds weren't some simple career move for Page. I've been a life-long Zep fan, and when I was younger, I'd read these interviews with Page during his Zeppelin days, and he'd frequently talk about the Yardbirds. I'd always wonder why he was talking about his old band when he was the leader of Led Zep now! But then I checked their music, and realized they were awesome, and that he CARED about it. Anyway, check my channel for some raw blues
@mielazul Yeah, I was 14 when this song was popular in 1965-66. The lead guitar was by Jeff Beck originally. This looks like it was done in '67 after Beck left and Page had moved from bass to guitar, first as a lead guitar duet(!), and then after Beck left and Paul Samwell-Smith came back on bass (I think that;s what happened - too lazy to look at my book), he was left as solo lead. Not long after this, they became The New Yardbirds with a totally new line up with Page the only survivor.
@mielazul Oh and too add; according to my books and some old mags, Page was rather shy, even though he was on almost every pop record produced in England as a session man. Have you ever found/heard the early recordings with Page and Clapton, and Page and Beck, and the Tridents? Really hot stuff. It's come out over the years with different titles; British Blues Anthology (67), The Guitars the Destroyed the World (73), and later on cd which I also have. Stuff like "Snake Drive" and "Choker."
@damemusic I remember hearing some young Clapton sessions produced by Page, and thinking Clapton sounded really good on it (I'm not usually that into his playing - I know he's good, just not to my taste). I'm interested in all that early stuff that bloomed out of the birth of rock in Britain. It still kind of amazes me how deeply and quickly the English took American rock to heart and produced such great musicians. I'll check out those recordings you mentioned. Thanks.
@MrSamram3 so right, page was a total technician in the studio, able to play any style and create charts and scales for anything, he was so versatile that bands scheduled recording sessions around his schedule, they knew he was the one to make their music a hit, the stones, the kinks, lulu, petula clark,cliff richards, plus many, many more, he was and still is the man!!!!
Keith kinda looks like Davy Jones from the Monkeys, Page's solo is Deliciously Out Of Tune, I read Dweezil Zappa said he liked Jimmy's 'Sloppy' guitar soloing,yes he did say Timmy, and I REALLY like the Drummer's playing!
How can anyone no love this song? An all time classic rock-n-roll song. Nazerath, did a excellent version, some may say even an improvement during the '70's.
I wonder what musical talents you scumbags have to put down these legends? OOps that's right, just scratch a record back and forth and say a dumb rhyme. Now thats real music and takes no talent. Go buy a 67' chevelle and try again!

@shake18chd The solo was by Jeff Beck, who has a very different style to Page. The solo doesn't feel like it fits in, but that's how it was written

This is the worst guitar solo, I have ever seen. There's nothing "raunchy" about it, its just bad.
Apart from that, great band

Page was "sloppy" and raunchy when he WANTED to be! He could just as easily be precise and mathematical. One doesn't become a highly sought-after session guitarist at age 18 in London by being "sloppy".
Session guitarists must be impressarios of sorts, called upon to play multitudes of styles.
And for all you folks who think a concert is great if it "sounds like the album", well, that's just plain boring. Why go to the concert, just listen to the album! Page, Beck and Hendrix, all great!

@MrSamram3 Dude...well said. And you know, the Yardbirds weren't some simple career move for Page. I've been a life-long Zep fan, and when I was younger, I'd read these interviews with Page during his Zeppelin days, and he'd frequently talk about the Yardbirds. I'd always wonder why he was talking about his old band when he was the leader of Led Zep now! But then I checked their music, and realized they were awesome, and that he CARED about it. Anyway, check my channel for some raw blues

@mielazul Yeah, I was 14 when this song was popular in 1965-66. The lead guitar was by Jeff Beck originally. This looks like it was done in '67 after Beck left and Page had moved from bass to guitar, first as a lead guitar duet(!), and then after Beck left and Paul Samwell-Smith came back on bass (I think that;s what happened - too lazy to look at my book), he was left as solo lead. Not long after this, they became The New Yardbirds with a totally new line up with Page the only survivor.

@mielazul Oh and too add; according to my books and some old mags, Page was rather shy, even though he was on almost every pop record produced in England as a session man. Have you ever found/heard the early recordings with Page and Clapton, and Page and Beck, and the Tridents? Really hot stuff. It's come out over the years with different titles; British Blues Anthology (67), The Guitars the Destroyed the World (73), and later on cd which I also have. Stuff like "Snake Drive" and "Choker."

@damemusic I remember hearing some young Clapton sessions produced by Page, and thinking Clapton sounded really good on it (I'm not usually that into his playing - I know he's good, just not to my taste). I'm interested in all that early stuff that bloomed out of the birth of rock in Britain. It still kind of amazes me how deeply and quickly the English took American rock to heart and produced such great musicians. I'll check out those recordings you mentioned. Thanks.

@MrSamram3 so right, page was a total technician in the studio, able to play any style and create charts and scales for anything, he was so versatile that bands scheduled recording sessions around his schedule, they knew he was the one to make their music a hit, the stones, the kinks, lulu, petula clark,cliff richards, plus many, many more, he was and still is the man!!!!

Keith kinda looks like Davy Jones from the Monkeys, Page's solo is Deliciously Out Of Tune, I read Dweezil Zappa said he liked Jimmy's 'Sloppy' guitar soloing,yes he did say Timmy, and I REALLY like the Drummer's playing!

How can anyone no love this song? An all time classic rock-n-roll song. Nazerath, did a excellent version, some may say even an improvement during the '70's.

I wonder what musical talents you scumbags have to put down these legends? OOps that's right, just scratch a record back and forth and say a dumb rhyme. Now thats real music and takes no talent. Go buy a 67' chevelle and try again!
