I hope most of you know what I'm talking about when I say get the LED out but for those of you that don't I'm refering to rocking out to the greatest band that ever lived, Led Zeppelin. The quote get the LED out refers to anyone when they wanna jam out to the music of Zeppelin. I don't think I could get fit all the information on this band into just one blog so this might have to be turned into a two part blog. Before I start talking about the band as a whole and what they accomplished in their musical career I would like to mention the individual band members themselves. First one on the list is the great Jimmy Page, the guitarist of the band and to me the greatest guitarist that ever lived. With his mix musical background into a lot of blues, Jimmy Page interpretated this into his rock n roll music and created something that was never seen before. He was one of the pioneers to the early rock n roll scene and I know without him there's no way rock would be what it is today. Next on the list is Robert Plant, the vocalist of the band and a master of vocals. Robert Plant was one of those singers that was able to hit any note he wanted with his voice. Instead of describing his voice into words, check out the talent he has with his voice in one of their songs "The Ocean". We now move to John Paul Jones, considered the bassist of the band but contributed way more than any other bassist has to any other band. John Paul Jones was one of the most musicaly talented people I have ever seen. It seemed that there was never any instrument he couldn't master. Last but definitely not least is John Bohnam, the drummer of the band and what a drummer he was. With his insane beats and amazing fills John Bohnam was able to create something wonderful with his drumset. If you don't believe me check out this clip from his 20 minute drum solo. As I predicted I didn't think I was going to able to able to fit everything I wanted to say about Led Zeppelin into just one blog. But make sure you come back to read the next because I will talk about what this great band accomplished throughout their career and how they changed rock n roll.
