Rock'n Roll at its finest. Kashmir, a masterpiece of Led Zeppelin. Written by Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, the song that Robert Plant mentioned like ''I wish we were remembered for Kashmir more than Stairway To Heaven'' in an interview. Led Zeppelin performing 'Kashmir' live at Knebworth in 1979. This stage and that performance, it is just mind-blowing!

'When The Leeve Breaks', a song originally recorded and written by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie in 1929 and it's about the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927. The song was later covered by the British rock band Led Zeppelin for their 4th studio album, known as Led Zeppelin IV. The band brought a fresh air to the song with their approach, Bonham's drums, Page's heavy-driven electric boxes, John Paul Jones' unique bass lines, and Plant's unmatched vocals. It quickly became a fan favourite song. Then, in 1994, as you may know, Led Zeppelin was already a broke-up band, and Jimmy Page and Robert Plant released their live album "No Quarter Unledded". In this live album, they recorded some of the Led Zep songs and When The Leeve Breaks is one of them. The album's songs were recorded in Morocco, Wales and London occured on an MTV project called "Unledded". Robert Plant and Jimmy Page performing "When The Leeve Breaks" from Unledded in 1994.

Led Zeppelin in their last professionally filmed concert at Knebworth 1979. For most it was the first (and only) time they saw a band that had not played in Britain for 4 years. Knebworth was the return of Led Zeppelin. Unfortunately, a year later drummer John Bonham left us.

1995, the year was. Led Zeppelin was on stage performing for Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction. The song was 'When The Levee Breaks', but a complete different take. Plus, Neil Young also joined them for the performance. One more, Robert Plant grabs a Les Paul and plays it. One performance and everyone including Plant has a guitar in their hands. John Paul Jones on bass, Neil Young, Jimmy Page, and the singer for Led Zeppelin Robert Plant on the guitar. A different, interesting, but tasteful performance from rock legends! #LedZeppelin #NeilYoung #RobertPlant

It's no secret that this was written after George Harrison, who was a huge fan, told John Bonham that the problem with Led Zeppelin is that they don't do any ballads. Bonzo brought in the idea, and the rest of the band worked with him to put it together. It is was one of the few Zeppelin songs where all four members shared the composer credit. Jimmy included the first two notes (not chords as it's widely known) of the George's written Beatles song 'Something' in the intro to 'The Rain Song. Led Zeppelin performing The Rain Song live at Knebworth Festival, Stevenage, UK, in 1979

We lost the legendary John Bonham on September the 25th in 1980 at the age of 32. His loss caused so many controversial issues in the rock music world because he was one of a kind drummer. His death was the primary reason for Led Zeppelin break-up. Robert Plant never wanted a reunion after Bonham's death. There were a few times the band members came together to perform and one of them was Celebration Day. Bonham left his child in the world alone but he gave him the spirit of drums. Here in this video, you will watch John Bonham's son Jason Bonham kicking the drums with his father.

#MusicMonday: Led Zeppelin I’ve been asked to share a bit more about my experiences with Led Zeppelin. I first met Jimmy page in 1967 when I was with The Guess Who and he was with The New Yardbirds at The Cleveland Art Institute. Both bands shared a dressing room. He asked if he could play my Rickenbacker and I said yes, if I could play his Telecaster. This week in 1968, as an official band, Led Zeppelin played their first ever Canadian show at The Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver. Their North American tour in ’68-’69 exploded their popularity in the US and Canada. In 1969, The Guess Who played The Seattle pop festival in Woodinville, WA. We ended up playing the same venues as Led Zep several times. After our band played, we’d go to the back of the crowd and watch the other acts. At one of the festivals, which were always in fields with generators, the main generator went out. Only one little amp was working. It had Robert Plant’s harmonica mic in it and the rest of the PA system was down. John Bonham kept drumming and Plant sang into this little mic and played harmonica for about 40 minutes until the power came on. I was amazed. They were just great! We crossed paths many times over the next few decades, playing the same circuits. It was a memorable moment for me as a musician when Robert Plant told me how much he loved “American Woman”. Decades later at Sweden Rock where I played with Fred Turner, I was able to give Jimmy an original poster from Seattle Pop I had saved from '69 and send one to Robert Plant as well. Incredible musicians who have rocked the world. #ledzeppelin #music #classicrock #askrandy
