Led Zeppelin - Since I've Been Loving You (Aug 09, 2006 - 17:41) | I am currently obsessed with this song. I've got the BBC Sessions version and the Remasters version. I just can't get over the intense emotion of the song, especially in the BBC Sessions version. I've been trying to just listen to Bonham because his playing in this song is purely inspirational. The timing of everything is freakin perfect. That said it also almost brings me to tears how pure the vocals and guitar playing come across. Simply amazing. The Remasters version allows you to single out Bonham a little more. The BBC Sessions version is just ridiculous as far as the vocals and guitar playing go. It's impossible to listen to and not be awestruck with how well Paige and Plant perform in that version. For anyone who thinks Led Zepplin is fluff you really should listen to this song and you will be changed forever. If not you're completely hopeless and should go listen to pop music somewhere all by yourself.. Seriously, if you've never heard the BBC Sessions version of this song you should go right now and check it out. It's that incredible.
PS to you other 2 guys - you know what I'm talkin about, this song is a thing of absolute beauty.

whoah! Tool did a cover of this song? This is one of my fav Zep tunes. I'll definitely have to check it out. Hopefully they did it justice as Zep and Floyd are two bands I consider sacred and take great offense when someone has the poor taste to think that they can remake a classic.
|
Led Zeppelin - Travelling Riverside Blues (Aug 09, 2006 - 02:32) | This song is smooth. I really like the whole BBC Sessions set. Most of it isn't the cleanest cuts they've ever done, but the raw emotion is just overpowering throughout. I really think it captures the essence of the band better than anything short of a real live performance. I'm so envious of those who were around during their heyday and had a chance to see em live.
|
Led Zeppelin - Whole Lotta Love (Aug 09, 2006 - 02:24) | All I have to say is - John Bonham is the baddest mofo that ever lived. Even if the rest of the song wasn't godlike, which it is, John's drum playing would be one of the most impressive things to ever hear. The man could play,without equal hands down. I would give my left *** to hear him play live.
RIP legend
