Led Zeppelin Biography part 1/5

[PinguTheG]

Best band ever better than popy shorty beatles any day!!!!

[GibsonYui]

Foo fighters sucks LISTEN TO NIRVANA!!!! Or led zep

[TheDatsyukian]

the reason he says page and grant, is b\c Page was at his best than. It even says in most Zeppelin books.

[TheMetalguitarguy]

The narrator is the voice of the male elves in Oblivion

[gtrstdave]

Chris Dreja, i love u man but u gotta learn ur finger-counting @1:31

[TheBubblesParadox11]

With GRANT and Page did he just say? Oh dear...

[MrArchfail]

What kind of idiot only likes 1 song on a Zeppelin album ?

[MarkOpee1]

these guys are(were) possesed by evil spritis

[jumpinjoe88]

@MarkOpee1 LOL, Yeah, John Bonham was possessed by his own spirit, Plant was possessed by Robert's spirit. LOL, sure they were a little crazy, but not evil! Man, have you ever even HEARD Stairway To Heaven, or for that matter, In My Time Of Dying?

[MarkOpee1]

@jumpinjoe88 they were not crazy but tore down moral barriers. Deceived deceivers. Stairway to heaven is totl overrated - it's only a mediocre song which is said it's based by a poem of Aleister Crowly. Crowley was a major influence of Jimmy Page

[lurima52511]

What's the song at 5:16?

[ernielop3z]

STILL AND ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE BAND OF ALL TIME!!

[sirdon1229]

I as im sure many many others will pay top dollar to see this reunion. I hope Plant changes his mind and play america like he did in london

[xxmaxexstreamxx]

Which dick put a hands down on LED-ZEPPELIN!!!.....?

[ZoSoRecords]

They just had a new on out (biography) called dazed and confused. thanks for posting this

[HighpointProductions]

who is the douche who disliked this video....

[StewieFan411]

"There was four of them" -holds up three fingers-

[karp1941]

@StewieFan411 that is a good one !!!!

[afro20man]

I still wonder if Jimmy truly gained power from malevolent unseen sources...stairway to heaven just seems too perfect--and how plant said he wrote it in a style of "automatic writing" almost as if he didnt realize what words were being put down...I love ledzep and I dont hate on them for it but (oooohhh it just makes me wonder) if you catch my drift.

[Alexander87oclock]

1.Queen

2.Led Zeppelin

3.Pink Floyd

4. I don't like them but The Beatles.

Greatets bands of all time.

[moderjoker]

@Alexander87oclock you forgot the foo fighters and linkin park

[AICMetal94]

@moderjoker Foo Fighters, yes. Linkin Park, hell no.

[moderjoker]

@AICMetal94 foo fighters suck balls, that's what i mean

[ghost6000123]

@AICMetal94 STFU Foo Fighters are Good Linkin Park used to be good

[AICMetal94]

@ghost6000123 Dude. Chill. I like the Foo Fighters, I just don't like Linkin Park, not anything past 2003 anyway.

[candymanego]

This is boring, impersonal, and uninformative... and I love Zeppelin.

[TheIrishmaggot]

WTF Why in gods name would anyone hate on Led Zeppelin



[vitakinesis]

ofc Led Zeppelin is the best band ever.. plz the beatles?? totally overrated, how in the hell you can compare "yellow submarine" or " i want to take your hand" stupid songs for teens, whit "since i've been loving you" or " stariway to heaven"......anthems of rock and blues.

[wideheadofknowledge]

@vitakinesis Why pick those songs? It's an unfair comparison.

[vitakinesis]

@wideheadofknowledge not is not, The Beatles get famous whit thouse first 2, 3 albums.. stupid songs makeit for stupid girls. and you cant discuss that. The Beatles was and is a overrrated Band... personaly i think they are in the same category as The Kinks for example.. Classic rock for life!!!!!! (( yes The Beatles was pop not Rock, CLassic ROck was this ( Zeppelin), or Hendrix, or .. OMG The WHO!)) pf..

[ginghamslut]

They should call this biography "Old guys say 'Led Zeppelin is the best band ever' for 40 minutes'

[VladFerdinand1]

@ginghamslut Don't like it? Walk out. We still have all your fucking money.

[ginghamslut]

4:08 -With Grant and Page at the helm...

You can tell that whoever put this together knows what they're talking about.

hahaha



[TXZombie]

What is the name of the song that starts at :13?

[lurima52511]

wats the name of the riff @ 5:16? I'm kinda new to Zeppelin :D

[EXTREME4YEARSTOCOME]

led zeppelin and black sabbath. 2 best and most influential bands to come from engand

[LedZeppelinFanPage]

THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD !

[xxMikePortnoyJrxx]

Wait nvm I may have fucked up

[xxMikePortnoyJrxx]

Fucking retarded narrator haha at 4:07 he said grant and page instead of plant and page

[0adireita]

i love when people talk about pop singers in a led zeppelin video...

so i can mark them as spam XD

[PupuTheClown]

Led Zeppelin did put out one single, it was called "Hey hey what can I do".

[22ness0hayden]

The commentary on this is so grating and pointless.

[1973mazdarx4coupe]

Justin beiber is the next Led Zeppelin

[PupuTheClown]

,,Justin Bieber needs to sing Led Zeppelin if he wants to save his career within the next 2 years.

[1973mazdarx4coupe]

@PupuTheClown do you think he could pull it off?

[SkidRowAXL]

@1973mazdarx4coupe What the FUUUUCK U ARE AN IDIOT ASS HOLE DICK SUCKER WHO DOESNT DESERVE TO LISTEN TO ZEPPELIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheStapleZ]

@1973mazdarx4coupe So basically you're saying music is dead?

[KuJaRoth2021]

@1973mazdarx4coupe that isbecause he is in fact going down like a LEAD zeppelin :)

[73WEBSTER]

someone please tell me the song RIGHT AFTER Black Dog, starts at .13 seconds and ends at 33

[Karenfan09]

@73WEBSTER I don't think that is a Led Zeppelin song...It sounds like it is some kind of guitar groove.

[73WEBSTER]

PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE SONG THAT STARTS AT :12 SECONDS!!!! PLEASE!!!

[ShOrtieMAC919]

if you dont know what that is you shouldnt even be watching a led zeppelin video its called black dog

[andersoncouncilpf]

They plagiarized quite a lot, but they're still the second greatest group ever.

[andersoncouncilpf]

They plagiarized quite a lot, but they're still the second greatest group ever.

[rhoodca]

does anybody known what´s the song that starts at 5:17? pleeease!

[bernardopaiva94]

Today, Led Zeppelin are much more influent to young bands than the Beatles, but that doesn't take any credit from them. I love Led Zeppelin, and I don't like very much the Beatles, but the 2 bands are great on they're own way.

[matco24]

@bernardopaiva94 sorry dude, but comparing Led Zep to the Beatles is retarded

[TheBobohj]

@bernardopaiva94 there both awesome and no more people know the beatles

[Noctisffvs13]

Argh sorry for the bad spellings and wrong grammars. Well gotta blame the iPad for it >:)

[Noctisffvs13]

Come on people why the comparison with the Beatles and Led Zeppelin? Their both great bands! If theirs a category of them they will always be equal. For example if it comes to songwriting the Beatles will win, when it comes to guitar works Led Zeppelin will win, if it comes to influence the both win :)

[towser06]

I don´t like Zep..The Who are much much better, a real rock´n´roll street band. no wonder punks hated Zeppelin. Zep is more a muliti-million selling fairy rock band. I like real things..

[dockaiser]

@towser06 Come on. You can't say the Who were much better. You prefer the Who, OK, that's your choice, by the way thanx for the Who uploads, I really enjoyed watching them.

Greetings from wiesbaden

[rakuencallisto]

@towser06

LOL punks hated it because it was the COOL thing to do. The "punk" thing to do is to hate on everything basically, especially main stream. There was basically no other bigger main stream band during the beginning of punk than Zeppelin.

Led Zep is amazing and just as good as the Who, you just need to listen more than Stairway to Heaven.

[towser06]

@rakuencallisto I know every Led Zeppelin Album..they did 3 good ones..II, IV and Physical Graffiti..Punks didn´t hate everything..they liked The Who, Lou Reed & Neil Young to name a few. A lot of hype and myths sourrounding Led Zep but to say it with Keith Richards words: "musically it never took off"..they are all great musicians but as a Band...i don´t know.

[rakuencallisto]

@towser06

only reason punks liked the who, lou reed and neil young was because their music appealed to the punk scene and genre. all of those artists were breakthrough musicians that brought new styles of music to mainstream. they were also bands that conformed to the norm. bands that were against government power and were about anarchy.

those 3 were all about hating on the government.

[RisingSon011]

@towser06 kieth richards ? yawn ..

[nikolaszee]

if no body noticed he said GRANt and page intead of plant and page

[jamirosmajicrocks]

if they say bands are influenced by led zeppelin even today, there not really right, cause justin bieber was born and raped everything.

[DEKMAN99]

Every band in fucking America in 1980's became a Zeppelin clone, but never came close.

[RubbeRevolver7740]

@mjd775 fuck Ya!! But no one compares to Hendrix

[MasterGodfather97]

i love ac/dc! but there are 2 types of rock band, ones that wrote stairway to heaven and ones that didn't

[jumpinjoe88]

@MasterGodfather97 Dude. AC/DC is awful. Now, Cream... that's a good band, yet even they fail to reach the incredible level of the Led Zeppelin.

[LaPatrieCharvel625]

@MasterGodfather97 like saying i like bands with good drummers, but i still like bands with shit drummers!

[resqfireman]

I like how in the "Hammer of the Gods" book, Black Sabbath was called a Zeppelin clone...lmao. Sabbath and Zeppelin were NOTHING alike. Boston, Heart, etc were definitely clones. BTW, I cant stand Heart....that singer looks like she would eat the microphone....

[chilly2829]

What is the song at 00:13 please?

[sausagenpeppers]

i hate when they play music that isn't led zeppelin in the background.

[chilly2829]

oasis out sold the beatles

[iambetterthanyou500]

The real difference between Led Zeppelin and AC/DC isn't the records sold, it's that the only talented one in AC/DC is the guitarist, as for Led Zeppelin in which all members had massive amounts of talent.

[MasterGodfather97]

@iambetterthanyou500 true angus AND malcolm are the only talent, bon was too though

[z3pp3lin15]

What's the song at 5:16?

[slashguitarrr]

Whats the song at 5:46? i really need to know!!!

[berxie3112]

yes

[mattm465]

no but ACDC did sell the second best selling album ever "Back in Black" , Led never managed that but they do have really great songs

[EvilRoySlad3]

Man, who researched the narrator's script.. such BS Just about everything he said is either not true or taken out of context: Whole Lotta Love was released on a single. Steve Marriott was Page's 1st choice singer. When he asked Marroitt's mgr, he threatened to cut off Page's fingers if he tried to poach him. Hence, Moon joked "that went down like a Lead Zepplin" and the name stuck. New Yard Birds were just to complete existing YB contracts. just total BS..

[WhatSayestThou]

Zeppelin defined a genre and set a standard. They never nade the same album twice and retained all their original members until Bonham's death in 1980. Quite a feat.

[blogtvpunk]

why stretch it to widescreen? Don't you know it makes it look stupid? You dumb fuck.

[robert13camus]

What Led Zepplin album is that killer song on at the 1 minute 18 seconds mark?

[1dpat69]

@robert13camus -- It's not a Zep track at all ... just some background filler tuneage.

[1dpat69]

@robert13camus -- It's not a Zep track at all ... not sure who created the music. A lot of the background music in this piece seem "Zeppelin-ish," but are not Zep at all (except for the obvious tunes, like WLL, etc.).

[robert13camus]

@1dpat69 That isn't cool. That is like playing Wolfmother or Kingdom Come along with a Led Zepplin biography. I call it bullshit. Like when Aerosmith had their biography done on MTV. MTV played techno and rap music along with the history of Aerosmith. That makes no sense.

[SixShotMaryDown]

1:34 "It was four of them." *lifts up three fingers*

[monsta64]

God Bless Ahmet for signing the mighty Zeppelin! That man knew it!!!

[KarmicOmen]

This is great -- thanks for uploading!

Another band that suffered much tragedy over the years was Lynyrd Skynyrd. The original band lost singer Ronnie, vocalist Cassie, guitarist Steve and manager Dean in a 1977 plane crash; guitarist Allen in 1993 to pneumatic complications from an auto crash that left him paraplegic, bassist Leon in 2001 from liver failure, and pianist Billy of a massive heart attack in 2008, and current line-up recently lost 2 members = 8 total. So tragic, so very sad.

[KarmicOmen]

CORRECTION: Pianist Billy Powell died in January 2009 ... not in 2008.

[TheReilly8]

wrong at 3:42 they put out whole lotta love as a single

[666metallalcolica666]

ITS NOT ABOUT MONEY SOLD ITS THE MUSIC

[MrMisterBluesman]

why cant people just agreed that the Beatles and Led Zeppelin are both great. Fucking stop being bias and start listening to both damn it.

[monsta64]

@MrMisterBluesman Totally agree with you, bro. Moreover, here in NY one year I recall WNEW having a playlist for one glorious weekend that consisted SOLELY of:

The Beatles, The Stones, Zeppelin and The Who! I was in freakin' heaven for that weekend!

[demoskunk]

Why does this documentary have to use so much generic music? It should only have Zep's music in it.

[pototoesfieldforever]

what song is played during this video from 6:22 to about 7:21 ?

[saemikneu]

Debut in "Surrey, England"? cool. the first outside the UK was in Denmark:

Sept. 7 Gladsaxe, Copenhagen, Denmark (as "The New Yardbirds")

Sept. 8 Fjordvilla, Roskilde, Denmark (as "The New Yardbirds")

Sept. 14 Angby Park, Sweden (as "The New Yardbirds")



[marceloelperry]

como se llama la cancion de fondoo que aparece a los 0:14 ?????????

esta buenisima

[addacodea]

i'll just say the beatles r great, but LED ZEPPELIN o man, funny story, my dad got me into led zeppelin i'll never look back

[Jimmypage198765]

@1:34 look at chris dreja's hand and listen to what he says xD

[JackOfferlott]

You still see kids wearing Zep shirts. You can't say that about even the Beatles.

[crohno]

@JackOfferlott i wear beatles tshirts, oh nad by the way i absolutely love led zeppeling, they are one of the greatest band ever, but jimmy page rip off quite a lot of songs from other bands

[Chilton20]

What's the song at 00:13?

[caveman5692]

anyone notice around 4:05 that the narrator refers to Robert plant as "Grant"?

[DWDrummerJon151]

@caveman5692 Yeah i did xD Ridiculous

[SeattleLA]

@caveman5692 Actually, he is referring to Peter Grant, the fantastic manager. Page was, of course, heavily involved in management decisions.

[blica1]

led zep has been and will always be the mold for every hard rock band in the history of hard rock and metal !..there's no denying this or escaping it ..those who think otherwise are sadly mistaken ! their look , sound , stage presence, touring antics, debauchery, are synonymous with every cliche that exists within the music world and in all broad spectrums of it ! Zeppelin is Rock n Roll !

[Alu142]

is it true that led zepp never had a single>?

[bobdoles123]

@Alu142 i think they might have had one. maybe one.

[mjd775]

Eric clapton and jeff beck? both shit compared to Page!

[fabstter193]

Led Zeppelin are Gods.

[ledzepluvr42]

Is the song at 2:18 supposed to be Kashmir? xD

[Numnubs777]

What song Starts At 0:12???????

[1ZosoLZ]

What song is that at 3:02?

[Astn42]

Does anybody know the name of the song playing at 5:43?

[LedZeppelinisgod100]

i hate the ripoff soundtrack the producers of this program made.

[3mpireFAll]

she got ugly haha

[MrRyguy69]

Why are they interviewing those talentless heart broads?

[AEKARA27]

@MrRyguy69

yea right. Heart, just about the best female band there is.

[newman015]

At 4:08 does he say Grant? of Plant?

[SeattleLA]

@newman015 No, he refers to Peter Grant, naturally. Listen to the context.

[cowboysfan782008]

I have been heavily into music for most of my life. I bought toys in the attic used for $3 in 1976 at 8 yrs old. Zep and the Stones are my favorites of all time, but Zep just has something more than any other band I have ever heard. They grab you and knock you straight on your ass. To hear Ahmet, who is like the grandfather for RR bands give Zep the kind of props that he gives in this clip, just puts it into perspective. He is basically saying they trumped everyone, and that's because it's true.

[brocolihead20]

1:33 lol

[RockShop101]

pay attention at 1:33

[1hr4play]

@RockShop101 A whole four of them.....(holds up 3 fingers.....)

[aczeppelindc2908]

then he says "gobsnapt??"

[mikemai123]

the only reason the beatles have more albums than anybody is cause every 5 years they release a new anthology album

[glakshmiratan]

@mikemai123 Of all the great bands, the only one I despise---beatles...

So poppy--especially their early stuff---White album, Sgt. Peppers are 8/10---but where do they stand next to velvet underground, led zep, floyd, the who, sabbath (1st 8 albums)

[mikemai123]

@glakshmiratan yeah i cant realy stand the beatles either.. i just find there stuff to be boring. i couldnt even tell ya what songs are on which albums

[pritty2349]

@mikemai123 No you boo they released eight albums in their first 4 years what a pace.

[vincevega0]

Benji Le Fevre (being intereviewed) was the one that found John Bonham dead.

[downlisefu]

The music they play at 5:17 (when JImmy is on the motorcycle), is that just some random track or an actual song?

[scousegrecian2]

I've asked the question about the music that's played at 5:17 too. Don't think it's a Zeppelin tune. It's not on any album i've got. I would love to know who performed it, but no-one seems to know. Can anyone help?

[Kozelord]

I think music thats played at 5:17 are definitely Yardbirds...but I don´t know name of the song...

[downlisefu]

Can you find the song for me? please

[corpsepunch23]

Eh who cares if they did or didn't sell more then whomever. Not like any of us will see any of that money.

The biography ain't bad and it's still amazing what they did and the music they released.

[GeorgVanHalen]

ladies and gentlemen... Led Zeppelin !

[ToyKotoMadman]

When is this from? They say Led Zeppelin sold the most next to The Beatles, but I thaught the top 5 was this:

1. The Beatles

2. ABBA

3. Queen

4. Led Zeppelin/Pink Floyd

5. The Rolling Stones

[HookInMouth999]

The Beatles have sold the most records all time..... but theres more artists before Zeppelin than you have here..... Elvis, Michael Jackson, Bee Gees, Elton John, AC/DC all sold more then Zeppelin. Led Zeppelin is around 10th all time. I think what they meant was at the time (late 60s-70s) they were breaking records. They also said they broke attendence records, because at the time they broke the Beatles attendence record for one of their shows... but they dont hold that record anymore

[ToyKotoMadman]

Really, AC/DC have sold more than the great Led Zeppelin? Hm.

Thank you.

[FredFoswell]

AC/DC haven't sold more albums than Led Zeppelin. Whoever thinks that is sorely incorrect.

And more to the point, Led Zeppelin didn't release singles unlike all the otjher bands in the top sellers list. Zep's 300 million records sold are all albums.

[gewatzig1]

@FredFoswell NO WAY MAN, AC/DC had a more tougher life than Led, I do like Led Zeppelin but, no........ :(

[McEvoyMikey]

@FredFoswell Led Zeppelin didn't have singles because all their songs are awesome

[trippyseedsindeedz]

@FredFoswell Ac/Dc may not have sold more records over all than Led Zeppelin, Zep have been around longer, but Back In Black sold more records than any Zep album, its the 2nd highest selling record of all time, next to "Thriller"

[jdvoltage]

actually led zeppelin is the second album in rock genre and 3 on the List of best-selling album artists but since are like a billion of music artist in this world all this list are subjective matter btw i search and on wikipedia are 2 lists very different one from other

[fredzepp1]

When Ahment Ertegun, the co-founder of Atlantic records and perhaps the most respected music executive in history, makes those statement about Zeppelin being the most influential band in rock history, it gives weight and confirmation to the tens of millions of fans that knew from the jump that Zep were utterly unique and a cut above even the great bands of rock.

[fredzepp1]

Led Zeppelin remain the greatest rock band that ever stepped on a stage. They were influenced by the music they loved as were every other major artist in rock history. The old plagiarism pot shots at Zep (solely because of their colossal record sales) have been discredited by every major critic in rock. Like Muddy Waters said, "All musicians are thieves but the good ones make it fresh, and the great ones (Led Zeppelin) take it somewhere brand new and unrecognizable".

[guitarmessiah95]

this is the best documentary of anyband that iv seen the guns n roses one is good too

[sammdogg66]

Zep Is my fav....but if you know anything about Page, he was all business....Plant and Bonham were on a salary for almost the first 2 years...

[francirader]

bussiness, industry... SHITT!!

THEY WERE MUSIC!!! NOT MONEY!!!

[RootBeerFloatz]

Fuck the Who,Led Zeppelin Rocks!!!!!!

[BouldernBiscuit]

I love them both!!!

[ryan79ryan]

WHY HAVENT MORE PEOPLE WATCHED THIS!

[prowily1]

WHY HAVENT MORE PEOPLE WATCHED THIS!

because Zeps story is old and known we all know about page and his black magic stuff and the zep were the biggest rip offs artist in rock music. stole so many lyrics and songs but didnt want to pay royalties untill they got sued. And they put up a storm if you did it to there songs. Espeacially ones that they stoled. Dont get me wrong I like zep but thats the truth about em. Bad influence on the youth. But good music and guitar influence.

[jessysnakeshow]

ESPAÑOL PORFAVOR

[jenzZ84]

i dont know much about led zeppelin but im a musician myself and have great respect for any band that does what they want and what they believe and the more i learn of this band and there genius business moves the greater my respect is

[LinkBulletBill]

LOL! Jack Bruce complimenting them! Last time I heard when Bruce heard Led Zeppelin I from Ginger Baker, Jack was disgusted by it... LOL! But here he said "By the time they were big, they certainly had fine art." So he was talking about Led Zeppelin II... LOL!

[OnThatPowder]

Zeppelin RULES!!!! REAL ROCK N ROLL!!!!

[bluto1992]

The Greatest Band Ever! No one will ever top them. The only band I can think of that are up there with LZ is Rush. RIP John Bonham. Will wear all black to school on Fri, Sept. 25 in honor of one of the greatest drummers ever.

[TygerCatCLC]

watch the whole thing, it's very inspiring

[DaveBritish]

RockNRoller Best Ever Band Ever Best.... The Zepps Are The Best!!!

[andwi03]

yea

[AnonymousWhitePerson]

Led Zeppelin kicks ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!
