Funny how this video percolated up into my feed this morning. Just yesterday a friend (and fellow Zeppelin head) texted me with about two dozen Zeppelin tunes - trying to explain to me the usual dilemma most Zepp fans face: the favorite song question. He’s trying to wring out of me my favorite song. Now I consider myself a mature, longtime fan of this band…have read many books and have crates of boot vinyl. Of the twenty songs he took the time to write out…it was missing one. I texted back only to remind him that he left out their most important work: That’s right, Kashmir. By him not including it, it shows what level of fan he is and there’s all different levels and that’s OK! Kashmir though is THE high water mark of their career, in my humble. It’s a song so very powerful and moving that it’s been said to have frightened even the band members themselves! They created yet another FrankStein monster song but this one was DIFFERENT and sort of sums up everything that we love about this unique band. It was played every live show from Jan. 11, ‘75 to Jul. 7, ‘80. With the immense contributions of Jones, arranging the brass parts (copied later with mellotron) it offered the flavor of a Moroccan street band. How fitting. These were sounds not brought to us by any other rock band before or since! Excellent analysis here Carl. I’m really digging it. Thank u.

Your presentation style is superb, keep up the great work! Zep always had that "intangible element" that separated and elevated them above every other band, and it was never more brilliantly on display than in Kashmir. It's epic, mysterious, frightening and if we're being honest, has a very distinct sexual overtone that is undeniable.

Definitely my fave Zep tune next to Babe,I'm Gonna Leave You.... I could wax poetic for hours about why I love this song... This and the Rain Song shows Pages virtuosity in chord voicings.. And the one thing I love about Kashmir... It isn't completely tethered to a Metronome.. It's nice to have things not always in a perfectly straight line... Once again... A dynamite breakdown of this song... The only other song I can think of that comes close is MSG (Michael Schenker Group) Lost Horizons.. It has that droning ,hypnotic quality that Kashmir presents.. Not too mention the killer guitar parts and tone on that entire record was great... And thats the other thing about Kashmir is it gave JP another entire different set of tones... Another dialect of voicing and tonality.. One thing I miss about the guitarists of the 70's... Everyone had their own distinct sound... That may be a great thesis for a video... How the Guitar and its applications have changed over the last 60-70 years... After all.. Most things are trendy and cyclical!

Although a big Led Zeppelin fan, I have always been a bit ambivalent about Kashmir. It has fantastic melodic, harmonic and atmospheric material - and Plant sings it uniquely. And the main riff is in a class of its own. My problem - and where the ambivalence sets in - is that the song becomes a little too long and, to my ears, too monotonous, not to say boring. And yes, that is perhaps what gives the work a hypnotic effect - but also what has made it a little too stagnant to my ears. But that should not change the great pleasure of your analysis and review of it - thank you very much for that.

This is an excellent instruction on how to play this song. One of Zep's finest. Thanks Carl. You are an excellent teacher. 5th album? Was it not the 6th? I, II, III, Untitled, Houses of the Holy, Physical Grafitti. That is nitpicking of course and just having a little fun with ya. Now I have to go retune a guitar to DADGAD and work on it...

@@CarlBaldassarreMusic Like I said, it was nitpicking. Don't take it as a negative, it's not meant to be. We all misspeak sometimes, I was just having fun with you. This video is so good on how this song is put together. Keep bringing this kind of content to us Jimmy-o-philes. I know I love it and I am sure others do too.

I never knew Carl played guitar he’s progressing. I didn’t know he could count to. As a drummer I can attest to only being able to count to seven. I love this guy. Hope yer band comes to philly
