Led Zeppelin 1969

[The92161]

think I was born too late !

[pjteeter]

pure magic

[philipm06]

Fucking hell- they don't make 'em like that anymore - youngsters listen and learn.

[fool4Jesus52]

I wish my ears still worked. 57 and all I say is HUH? It,s called tinitus. My ears screech 24/7. Ah, ya get used to it.

[AmberMustang777]

This may be the greatest thing I have ever seen. I had tears in my eyes, it was so wonderful. There's just ON in this performance, GOING OFF, ROCKIN'!! Just, wow. Thanks a million! :)

[MixxMasterKid]

How the fuck did you get a black and white version, when it was recorded in Colour....

[sttroy]

notice how the crowd isn't moving at all ....that's because they're paralyzed by the sound comin off the stage !!!!!!!

[RubenGardiner]

I know jimmy and robert are fucking brilliant musicians and performers but you have to give sooo much fucking credit to one of the best hard rock/metal rythem sections ever! john and john (lol just realised there both called john)

[wallybag100]

did these guy`s do drugs

[goe453]

Wow !

:O

Master piece of music :)

[Rellefg8]

@dt089 I was actually thinking the exact same thing

[dt089]

First thing Im gonna do when a time machine is made is take a visit to a Led Zeppelin concert, now whos with me!?

[fiomily225]

@dt089 I am (:

[fiomily225]

@dt089 I am (: give me a call, lol

[GClocalBOOGA]

that crowd just had their minds blown

[pedalnsquares]

i can just imagine in 1969, people were all like "that was very... interesting music, Marty"

[JimmyPagesSoloLover]

Rock'n. To bad some of the comments keep me from saving it to my favs.

[scartissue94]

It's funny how Jimmy starts humping his guitar around 3 minutes into the video, because in that documentary called "it might get loud", he described the guitar as being like a woman. XD

[fredsassy5]

hendrix was more influential than Page

[deaconBLUE777]

@fredsassy5

BS clown....guess what Billy Gibbons taught your boy how to play....bet you don't know who that is right clown!

[IheartRosco]

@fredsassy5 ...no

[buddy58691]

holy shit that was so crazy man

[tomcaat1]

bit of a hiccup around 2:05 for a bit, the two johns ... they're so awesome most people would never notice.

[evb4mvp]

5:06 would be an epic poster lol

[kahakai67la]

holy jesus fucking christ jimmy page looks good

[bulletman100]

good god.

[tnekkc]

In Seattle, I did not see Zeppelin in 68 when they were an opening act for Vanilla Fudge, but I had a girl friend who did, and she said they were terrible.

I saw Zeppelin in 69 at the Aqua Theater in Seattle, and they were great. They had no radio play, but those who owned the album wanted to see them. Lots of bikers there.

Then Zeppelin got a hit on the radio, "Good times bad times".

They have been popular ever since.

Later I saw them again, once in the Arena and once at the Colosseum.

[MusicalRelease]

JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ, JPJ and Bonham are fuckin kickin ASSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

Doesn't anybody else hear a bit of "Paranoid" in the beginning of "Dazed and Confused"? Perhaps Iommi paying respects to Page?

[alexc475]

been dazed and confused for so long its not true.

[HelloSunshine143]

i like their music but they scare me.

[BenisALLupinURface]

@HelloSunshine143 lol why?

[HelloSunshine143]

@BenisALLupinURface idk lol they just do.

[keithmarland]

in a league of their own then...still are now!

[vipinchaudhari]

rock is somethhing about to feeled and not to be expressed in words

[nslaxer]

THis is my shit laalaalalalalaaa

[pigurine]

Saw them live in Mpls 1969 1976

[fortl13]

kinda trippy at first ; )



[ricaja]

Dazed and Confused!

[JacobSmithUK]

what song is this

[Tecumseh1812]

your all a lot of pricks but this is a great performance

[leldoryn]

5:07 I'm almost positive that's a still photo somewhere, it looks EXACTLY like one ive seen tons of times, if so, then this performance must have been in colour somewhere.

[runingblackbear]

pure rock in roll at its best

[noseha1r]

3:21-3:25, THATS why John Henry Bonham is the greatest drummer to ever live...RI.P

[noseha1r]

@ar15xm15e2s neil peart has nothin on bonham

[noseha1r]

@ar15xm15e2s you dont know about music you twat

[noseha1r]

@ar15xm15e2s haha ur the one arguing against an opinion that im sure everyone watching this video would agree with, and when did i say im "einstein of music"? lol i just gave an opinion and you started to argue against it for no reason, yea and say im not mature then come back with that...haha

[noseha1r]

@ar15xm15e2s how can i tell your being sarcastic overe a text?? lol and i said people watching THIS video would agree, cuz its a zeppelin video and the people watching will most likely be fans therefor supporting my claim that john bonham is the greatest, and in this vid hes lyk 21 and look at what he can do, he was taken from this world 2 early and at that age would still beat peart, JB was a beast, thats what he's known for, and im sure every drummer would agree with that

[noseha1r]

@ar15xm15e2s that explains it then :L lol and yea JB was u a huge inspiration to me :)

[noseha1r]

@ar15xm15e2s ammm...i dunno whats meant 2 happen?? :L

[demravager]

@ar15xm15e2s see that's why your whole argument started on this vid. Noseha1r made a comment and then you came out of nowhere, challenged him, than called him a fucking retard. That's just not even called for. Why even go out of your way to do something like that on a Zep video? It's immature as hell. And Bonham has been consistantly ranked the best drummer ever by dozens of critics, magazines, polls, and drummers alike.

[ar15xm15e2s]

@demravager yea i think we fucking settled it. what do you do all day? just sit on your ass and read comments. also how are u calling me immature for doing the same thing ur doing right now?

[demravager]

@ar15xm15e2s Dude, you're the one provoking people. The other guy never said anything to you, but you came at him. I'm taking his side.

[ar15xm15e2s]

@demravager  OK

[ar15xm15e2s]

@demravager wtf? dude its no big deal.. just my opinion. and i was just kidding in the first place. I really dont care who els anyone likes, they can like who they please. i just wanted to throw in someone who i think is great. hes not bitching about it so idk why u are

[demravager]

@ar15xm15e2s Yeah yeah, I get what you're saying. Neil Pert is great, but Bonham is the Beast. I mean seriously though, you should know how Led Zeppelin fans get. There's no quarter when it comes to defending how good the band is, and it's particular members.

[ar15xm15e2s]

@demravager yea i getcha man, lol dont get me wrong led zepp is one of my favorites. they are "gods" AS A MATTER OF FACT IN MY BOOK lol

[kardanernas]

It is 1969 in France. Jimmy did play Les Paul on their second album in 1969 ; )

[SiniaDiva]

I'm 100% sure this not 1969. In 1969 Jimi Page did played on Telecaster, not Les Paul. He played on the Les Paul from the 1971.

[Schmok425]

JUst Zizzed on the computer screen ... Amazing

[9sshty6]

what a hard looking crowd......they don't know their witnessing the greatest band ever

[unicorn1221]

and what is this song's name?

[Schmok425]

dazzed and confused

[unicorn1221]

why this clip don't have embed code?

[thnelement]

The kids in the front row at 3:05 had probably shit themselves by then.

[Carpx11]

i luv this. what a gem.

[foxofthenight]

did dancing like that used to be thought to be totaly wild like bands nowadays ?

[KISSfreak2342]

zeppelin should have played at woodstock that wouldve been killer :)

[andrewroach91]

they had a really good reason not to play, but i cant remember what it is

[mcmacanerni]

They had a previously scheduled gig that they were really excited about.

[meacham12]

well.

that made me ejaculate a little.

[samsungerar]

and you have to remember he was just a studio musician before zeppelin, probably not used to the whole live thing.. but he still is in my top ten bass players..

[CadillacL]

Jonsey's influence is VERY under-rated. He deserves so much more credi then he's gotten.

[GoatFace99]

Fucking best band. Motherfucking PERIOD.

[FireAssasin]

@GoatFace99 You missed ever... :)

[john100174]

@GoatFace99 not only the best band period just think if they would of had todays video and tech wow..all i can say.

[magner153]

@RastafariPoet He was probably high..

[jamirosmajicrocks]

@GoatFace99 mothershippingfucking period.

[badassmusician]

I only realized right near the end that it was Dazed and Confused. LOLOLOL I havnt listened to the first album for ages. I forgot there was a massive breakdown in that song HA. FUCKEN ZEPPELIN RULE for ever. BEST ROCK BAND EVER!!!! PERIOD.

[magneteye]

This is in the middle of the song, where's the first part?

[magneteye]

the birth of metal.

[MrTrajan69]

Plant acts like such a fag! He also moves like Joe Cocker at Woodstock, lol.

[jennakas]

Wow!! how I wish I was part of that audience back then. Led zeppelin truly rocks.

[jennakas]

Wow, how I wish I could've been part of that audience. Led zeppelin rocks.

[multykill94]

they are n1

[burlpark333]

The bands? Today are worried about their 40 oz. and their blounts.

[Belchera]

And Zeppelin wasn't? God damn, man, where's you're fucking rock and roll spirit?

Zeppelin blunted and drank harder than any group of today. God damn!

[mdmde]

The audience is like that on the 2003 Led Zeppelin DVD. They're probably scared shitless!

Robert could really hit the high notes back then.

Thats probably why he doesnt want to reunite now-the voice cant be what it was in '69.

[69Whitehawk]

Where are the bands today playing music like this? I think something weird might be going on behind the scenes...

Luv to all

Onwards and Inwards.

[zeppelinn]

In music history there is only one band which was playing music like this. :-)

[MrTrajan69]

yep and that was The Who.

[9torus]

with the passing of Les Paul, I feel that other iconic figures will soon pass too. not to be duplicated....ever again. you're watching THE golden age. so much of what came after iconic bands like Zeppelin were contrived, cookie-cutter, caricatures

[bragladish]

maybe they've moved on from music... there is more to life than entertaining people... the world is evolving including the genius that exists in the human form... it (MUSIC) payed it's part, now something else is calling them.

[9torus]

I agree bro!

[andywank]

the crowd at this is all middle-agers lol not teens ready to rock the fuck out!

[gunsanddrugs]

teens back then did not rock the fuck out...! it was unheard of.. people watched and listened to the shows, not just zep.. but all gigs... like i say it was a turning point for social gatherings..

[gunsanddrugs]

did any more of this gig come about or just these 3 songs? im sure there is more of the rehearsal on audio-----!

[NcSandoNe06739]

aww, he's still just a baby ;)

[sandeatingcontest]

cool. thanks!! i have yet to hear a snare with that much character. i used to think it all had to do with eq when mixing was done in the studio but, i think you're right about the touch that he had when he played. his ghost notes sounded so full and rich. what do you think? do you think he was influenced by Elvin Jones? in some of his licks i hear parts of Elvin Jones' solos. I guess that would explain the swing feel that Bonham played with.

[booooooolpusterd]

"mow mow mow mow" lol that was random

[sandeatingcontest]

do you know what kind of kit he had? and the snare, what kind of snare?

[Klingrad]

i dont know if he used it at this recording, but he has used ludwig chrome supraphonic 402 Snare..! he always used ludwig, as far as i know

[abrahamlincoln0900]

ludwig drums I believe

[xXcampx]

This clip is obviously in black and white but the official 2003 DVD release of it is in color. Was this clip "colorized" for the DVD? Does anyone know? Just curious.

[lpycb42]

LOL I love how the crowd does not know what the hell hit them.

[gunsanddrugs]

typical for the tv show crowd, when u see who else was on the show (and indeed the radio and the gigs etc at that time, this was a turning point for musical history!

[luckyvet]

If you meant the audience was dead in their seats, i was thinking the same thing. Just a few short months / years later they'd be screaming with excitement.

[Adnoydal]

the'yd be doing that because their peers did it. Monkey see, monkey do.

[luckyvet]

Yep, and I also think Zep wasn't mainstream at this point.

[MusicalRelease]

@lpycb42 Its always funny watching The Zepp and The Experience perform during the early days(60's-early 70's), cause the crowd are always looking freaked out...LOL

These are the geniuses people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gatler05]

R.I.P JJohn Bonham

A legend may die, but his music WILL LIVE ON!

[brotherbuttcrack]

I almost cried just there

[gatler05]

Wow those fucking riffs are just Fucking awesome as fuck.

[xJayWalkerx]

yeah , great voice but still Marriott is a governor

without him we wouldn't have had Mr Percy Plant we all know and love...

[abrahamlincoln0900]

little Stevie was the man

[xJayWalkerx]

abrahamlincoln0900

yep, I wish more people knew about him. He deserves a wide recognition for all his work in both bands!

I think Robert wouldn't have mind my words in my previous post, he admires wee man so much :-)

and I really love Robert's voice too

[01sapphireGTS]

What a voice ! ! !

[sdafhgfg]

well said.

[mjkwyo]

Back in the day!

[sigryan19]

The audience is sitting there because they don't know how to react... their minds are blown so to speak

[gatler05]

Its in  the 60s bro, those people were just getting introduced that kind of music era. So don't expect to much from the crowd.

[lithiumX666]

motherfuckers!!!

Zeppelins are rolling their asses off and putting one hell of a show and the audience is just sitting there...they dont know what they are missing

Video just blew my fucking mind

[ManOwarIdk]

This song is good

[jsilence418]

Hey registered, believe me, there was lots of sucky music in 1969 as well !!

[1USMarineCorps]

Does anyone know where this is? or perhaps the date of the show... I think it's the July 29 1969 show with vanilla fudge at the Kinsmen field house...???

[overdriven56]

John Bonham still amaze me. It is not the size of the drum kit that makes the drummer!

[SuiteDrummer8]

yeah man its true, but i also think the more drums the harder because there's too many drums to get nice creative fills and stuff.

[Bishi19]

great..early zep

[onetwothreefourfight]

Mind is blown.

[abrahamlincoln0900]

I bet this scared the shit out of that TV shows audience.

[insightdigitalarts]

what do you mean they french?what's suck's its people juging a suck like you suck dick's my small friend

[danijanos]

Kibaszott nagy!

[bighippy94]

LOL, Led Zeppelin is the best band ever and everything, but imagine someone who has never heard of zeppelin, who watches this video. I mean just look at plant

[TheRainbowPrincess]

Haha you're so right.. He's always freaking around durring the solos, but in this one he takes it to the edge :P Coool!

[hahahomer]

this one's cool but the one he does during dazed and confused in another video is incredible

[TheRainbowPrincess]

Oh cool, do you have the link? :)

[nsjsjsjsd]

lol i know he gots an afro lol

[LinkBulletBill]

This user forgot to put Dazed And Confused solo in his descriptions, tags, title or anything...

[LinkBulletBill]

Pure improv!

[000petrus]

...and GOD created hard rock the soup primordial for your ears...

[k0rr0si0n]

Best rhythm section ever.

[NastyNole1]

INDEED! The GREATEST rhythm section in rock history, period, end of conversation....

[scubaduba23]

they found the one show where every dumb hippie isnt throwing firecrackers and shit at them. AWESOME

[alvardon]

fuck yeah!

[drunkenmathematics]

WELL SAID!

[RegisteredPwner]

Jimmy Page is a god.

[ledzepgirl92]

But Robert, too :) He is the Golden God :)

[RegisteredPwner]

Oh so true dude. If only man could create time machines. I would so travel back to 1969 when music didn't suck.

[LinkBulletBill]

Robert! One of the best singer, and the one who looked like his jeans were painted on him....

[ledzepgirl92]

You're so right :)

[eticomorales]

that comment was so E! Entertainment TV...

[ryssevik]

MASTERPIECE!!!!  RoooooooooooocK

[Mariekesone]

No Crowd disturbance .....sounds Great..!

But would have been hard for me to sit still and not dance or show appreciation...

[rolandvicfirth101]

BONZO DOESNT HAVE 2 FLOOR TOMS!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH! lol

[drunkenmathematics]

i dont get i?

[BandrewMacrew]

man if I would have been in that audience I wouldn't be able to force myself not to go crazy during this! Must be freaking robots sitting there. But Tv-shows are often pretty lame from the audiences' side.

[cowboysfan782008]

I don't think the audience even knew what to make of this kind of music in early 69'. Back then they would open up for bands like Vannilla Fudge, and Iron Butterfly, and just blow their clumsy asses right off the stage!

[anton9108]

yeah they are so far in shock they could just sit there and look like retards :P

[dsfddsgh]

Yeah remember this was 1969 heavy metal wasn't even created yet. So there was no such thing as heavy metal fans at the time or mosh pits or anything like that. That culture of hard rock fans wasn't around until the 70's. These people probably thought they were going to see the Monkees or some shit.

[cowboysfan782008]

Zeppelin was way ahead of their time with the type of hard driving, kick ass, rock n roll that they played. The type of music that Black Sabbath put out in 1970 totally blows me away also. I mean, where did that stuff come from? Other than the lyrics that Jim Morrison wrote for songs like "The End", 1967, to my knowledge, that type of music didn't even exist. Does' anyone know where Sabbath got their dark roots?

[haj890]

from lord of the rings

[cowboysfan782008]

Interesting, didnt know that, but it makes sense. PS. Lot of nice comments on your channel.

[haj890]

haha o yea i say some shit on the internet cause im bored idk

[ravenxj220]

They felt that the early blues rock that they played need something else. It was that music needed a horror genre like movies. This became heavy metal.

[stonefreeJMH]

Well said.

[mayhemfunkster]

Agree entriely with your sentiment...but don't forget Deep Purple! Together these 3 trailblazers blew apart popular music and set in motion all the Hard Rock and Metal that has come since. Respect...

[photek1944]

they all worked in a factory. the noises they heard there day in day out inspired them to make like sounding music. the rough metal sound is also a consequence of guitarist Tony Iommi's accident on the last day at work in the factory. he cut off some of his finger tips and had to "loosen" up the strings cause he couldn't press them that hard anymore. all of that resulted in the black sabbath metal sound.

[cowboysfan782008]

Thanks! It's funny, I'm 40 yrs old, and have heard all of this good music all of my life, and I am still amazed at the raw talent of groups like Zep & Sabbath. Especially how they just kicked ass right from the get go. I also never realized how talented guys like Joe Cocker, and Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull were, and the great stuff that they brought to the scene, until utube

[withnielandi]

I think ozzy and co thought if people go to see films that scare them, why not make scarey music and thus, Black Sabbath was born. Plus they liked heavy blues
