hello reece i am the teach me led zep pls anon yes hi hello hehe idk what i wanna know mabye like ur fave song from each album and basic facts about each member ??? dont be afraid to ramble btw im taking all the info i can get !!!1!1!!! thank u sm ily 🥺

annie i have three words for you... i got you. i already told you this, but i am working on a “beginners guide to led zeppelin.” i planned on it being more giggles mainly, but i'm going back and adding a decent amount of information just for you

fun facts about led zeppelin and the beatles: led zeppelin were the band that beat the beatles record held for most attendance at a concert (55,000 people). on may 5, 1973 (and with no opening act) led zeppelin beat that record by having an attendance of 56,800 people. also! for the beatles movie ‘a hard days night’ jimmy page did the instrumental version of this boy that plays while ringo is wandering around. pretty rad. oh, and george harrison went to a led zeppelin party once and was thrown into a pool by john bonham.

i gotta say this before i begin though, led zeppelin is one of those bands where hardly anything gets confirmed or denied. at least nothing “controversial” or anything more than basic gets an answer to it. so sometimes you gotta take things with a grain of salt, and you gotta just have the mindset of “well this might not be true so I'm not gonna claim it as so.” with that being said i'll start with getting you into led zeppelin.

through the span of their short career led zeppelin had eight studio albums.

led zeppelin (january 1969)

led zeppelin ll (october 1969)

led zeppelin lll (october 1970)

led zeppelin lV (november 1971) this album technically doesn't have a name but we all call it ‘led zeppelin lV since it was the fourth album

houses of the holy (march 1973)

physical graffiti (February 1975)

presence (march 1976)

in through the out door (august 1979)

they also have a few live albums and compilation albums as well. but when people talk about led zeppelin albums they're mainly referring to these ones. i like all of their albums. i think they're all good. my personal favorites are the second and fourth albums. i do think that led zeppelins music isn't for everyone though. they're not as clean as some other bands are. I will list my favorite songs from each album.

led zeppelin: good times bad times, dazed and confused, babe i'm gonna leave you, communication breakdown, how many more times, i can't quit you baby

led zeppelin ll: whole lotta love, the lemon song, thank you, heartbreaker, moby dick, ramble on

led zeppelin ll: immigrant song, since i've been loving you, tangerine, that’s the way

led zeppelin lV: black dog, rock and roll, stairway to heaven, misty mountain hop, going to california, when the levee breaks, the battle of evermore

houses of the holy: the song remains the same, the rain song, over the hills and far away, the ocean, no quarter, dancing days

physical graffiti: the rover, houses of the holy, kashmir, ten years gone, trampled under foot

presence: for your life, achilles last stand

in through the out door: fool in the rain, all my love

i think all of these are good starter songs for someone just now getting into led zeppelin. i hope you like them! they have one movie, the song remains the same, and it’s weird but also good. it’s basically concert footage of their madison square garden show but there’s also cuts of little skits they made? idk how to describe it lol.

in my beginners guide post i'll write more about the members and go into more details and funny facts about them. right now i'll just briefly introduce you to them. to talk about led zeppelin you have to start with the yardbirds. jimmy page (zeppelin’s guitarist) was in the yardbirds until they broke up in 1968 and then jimmy started looking for his “super group.” him and Peter grant (zeppelin’s manager) started looking for the best of the best people. in 1968 led zeppelin was formed.

jimmy page is known as one of the best guitar players in rock history. he’s usually always in the top three listings. he was a session guitarist for a while and would fill in on people’s records. on Joe cocker’s version of ‘with a little help from my friends’ jimmy is playing the guitar on it. and he joined the yardbirds with eric clapton and jeff beck who are also listed as the best guitarists. he was a soft spoken, quiet dude. he seemed very shy and introverted. but then you read groupie stories about how he had whips, handcuffs, and razors. he was also given a lot of shit for studying crowley’s work, and was known for his “witchcraft ways.” he struggled with addiction (heroin and cocaine) and pulled himself through in the end. but he was, and still is, an amazing guitar player. he also produced all of zeppelin’s albums. so he’s an amazing producer as well. he got a lot of unnecessary hate and criticism back in the day (still does). and you can thank jimmy for all the newish led zeppelin stuff we get bc that’s all on him more than likely.

john paul jones is known as one of the best bassists in rock history. he was not only zeppelin’s bassist but also keyboardist. and he can play recorder as well. like jimmy, he was also a session musician. jimmy and jones knew of each other and when jones heard about jimmy putting a group together he called him. he was more of the serious member in a way. jimmy, bonham, and robert were more wild and would cause chaos. john paul jones would deadass book a room at another hotel and not tell anyone where he was. he just wasn't into that kind of thing. so I don't think he was really all that close to the other members. he felt left out a lot. him and john bonham were an amazing rhythm section. the best in history. they knew exactly what to do to stay in sync. he was also the one to find john bonham when he died. so that’s sad.

robert plant is known as one of the best vocalists in rock history. his voice is *chef kiss.* i love him. he wasn't jimmy’s first pick in a singer. in fact, jimmy’s first pick was the one who recommended robert to jimmy and also said that he looked like “a greek god.” robert plant is just about the most attractive man ever. jimmy liked roberts voice a lot but doubted his songwriting skills so was weary of him at first. robert had never written songs until joining led zeppelin. robert was the reason john bonham joined the group. him and bonham were best friends before the group even formed and remained that way until bonham’s death. robert also went through a lot of shit during led zeppelin’s timeline and honestly i'm so proud of him for getting through all of it. right now robert likes to act like he was never in led zeppelin though lmao.

john bonham is known as one of the best drummers in rock history. i’m not even kidding. his power behind the drums is mind-blowing. when he was approached by jimmy about the band he denied the offer. and continued to deny the offer bc he had a family to take care of, and didn't know how well this band would be. but it was robert plant who convinced him to join so they could play together. he loved his family very much (a wife and son who name is jason). he hated being away from them. he was known as the sweetest man ever unless he was drunk. the problem was that he was always drunk. he had a drinking problem. he did a lot of stupid shit when drunk. he died in 1980 after he had the equivalent of 40 shots of vodka and threw up in his sleep causing himself to choke. after he died, led zeppelin died as well.

after john’s death the band called it quits. they all like to say it’s because no other drummer would be able to compare to bonham. robert says that he loved john bonham too much and couldn't force himself to go out there and do a show without him as the drummer. robert plant is likely the reason we’ll never get another zeppelin reunion show. there were three reunion shows in the past. the first reunion was their live aid show which fucking sucks. john paul jones wasn't even informed about the event and ended up on keyboard instead of bass, jimmy was likely on drugs bc of how out of it he was, robert’s voice is awful, and the drummers hardly knew the material. it was a rushed show but it was for charity and i'm sure they made a lot of money. the last show being the celebration day reunion in 2007 where jason bonham (john’s son) played the drums. it’s a really really good show and i cry every time i watch it. you can watch the whole thing on youtube. still to this day it’s evident that jimmy, Jason, and jones would love to do a reunion show again.

led zeppelin is one of the few groups that can say all of their members were just about the best at what they did. each member will always be in the top ten rankings for lists of the best artists/musicians. that’s really impressive. they were really, really good together. I hope this was a good starter post!

nirvana & the beatles for the bandom ask☁️☁️

Thanks for the ask, doll 🌷💗🌸💕🥰

The Beatles: Do you like Vintage stuff or are you more into modern things?

I’ve just answered this question lol, so I’m just gonna copy and paste it here. I love vintage stuff. I wish I could build owned a time machine so I could travel back in time and visit my favourite eras, picking up clothes and items I could bring in our time. On the other hand, I also love modern, super high-tech stuff. That’s also why I wish I owned a time machine: so that, after collecting all that vintage stuff, I could fly off to the future, when we’ve finally discovered how to fully utilize the energy the sun provides and how to live without destroying every other living thing on this planet.

Nirvana: Are you scared of what happens after death?

Oof what a tough question to answer at midnight when you’re about to go to sleep 🙈 I guess, yes, I am scared of what happens next. Not because I’m scared of suffering, but because no one’s ever come back to tell us what next means... I mean, religions all over the world claim this and that, but what is true? Nobody knows. The ones that do, cannot tell us and when we’ll come to it, we won’t be able to do anything for turning back and have some more time. I guess it’s the idea of the end that actually scares me. Like we’re living on a high cliff all our life and when the day comes, we fall off the cliff: we don’t know whether we’ll land on a soft cloud or on the hard concrete, whether we’ll keep falling through the darkness for all eternity or land on another cliff and start everything from the beginning all over again...

Yep. Guess who won’t be sleeping tonight.

#these question really make you think about what you're doing with your life uh?#thanks doll #love you #even if I'll be thinking about this all night #thinking #about #life #and #death #future #past #deakyswhitequeen #deakyswhitequeen ask #babygotblueeyes

hiiii can i have some angsty & fluffy best friends to lovers with george? love you xx ~ billie

I’ve got my mind set on you- George Harrison x reader

Summary: You and George have been best friends since as long as you can remember, but you’ve noticed that things have begun to change between you two. Maybe for the better

Warnings: a little bit of angst and some fluff

A/n: this was super fun to write, so thank you for requesting it! I know that it’s probably not the best thing ever but I promise I really did try. Feedback is always appreciated and requests are open. If you’d like to be added to a tag list please let me know! Enjoy!

“Y/N? Can you come over here for a sec, there’s something I need to show you!”

“Yeah yeah, hold on Harrison.”

You got up for your seat and walked over to the room where George’s voice was comming from “Okay George what did you wan-” you stopped mid sentence when you entered the room and didn’t see him anywhere.

“George?” You called out

Again. “George?!” Still no answer

You assumed that he was probably hiding and was waiting for the right time to scare you, when you were least expecting it. But you knew George all to well, since you were little, and if there was one place that he would hide it would always be in a closet or behind a door of some sort.

Just as you were about to leave he popped out from the closet, just like you had expected “Boo!”

You weren’t frightened by him at all, in fact you found it amusing. You thought it was cute how he was genuinely trying to scare you but failed at it.

“Why are you laughing? Your supposed to be scared.” George said with a slight smile and a confused look on his face.

Everytime he saw you smile or laugh he would instantly get a happy feeling inside. Seeing you smile, was like watching an angel to him. George thought that you were the most beautiful person he had ever laid eyes on. Ever since he began to have feelings for you he never looked at you the same way, everytime he eyes met with yours or he looked over at you it was with adoration and love. Of course he would never tell you that, because for all he knew, you didn’t feel the same way he felt about you, after all you two were best friends.

You on the other knew that George liked you and for quite some time now. Paul had told you, as well as John and Ringo. They knew how much you liked George. At first you didn’t believe them. “Come on you guys, stop messing with me. I know he doesn’t feel the same way about me.”

“Y/N, really! We’re telling the truth I promise. He does like you he even told me himself. Well I mean kinda, we were talking and I was telling him about Jane and I asked if he fancied anyone and your name slipped out. He tried to tell me that it wasn’t but I could tell it was, I swear it!” Paul had said

“Love, were telling the truth. I mean it’s also kind of noticeable too, haven’t you seen him lately? He acts all flustered around you.” Ringo spoke up. You could tell by the look in his eyes that he was telling the truth.

“But what if he doesn’t?” You questioned them

“Believe us Y/N, he does.”

You thought to yourself about their words, George had been acting a bit different around you lately. He seemed to be taking more time to spend with you. Offering to buy meals more often and check up on you whenever possible.

“It’s hard to be scared, especially when your the one that’s scaring me.” You said as you continued to laugh at George. He just rolled his eyes and let out a small chuckle himself.

A few moments of awkward silence passed before anyone spoke up.

George took a step towards you not realizing how close together you two already were. When he looked up you noticed his eyes got bigger and he quickly took a step back. “You know what Y/N, your prett- I- I mean, it’s pretty hot outside. I don’t suppose you would uh,” he hesitated for a moment “Ice Cream?”

“Sure George, that sounds wonderful.” You anwsered him with a smile and a giggle

While you were out with George, it seemed to be going well. He offered to pay for your ice cream even though you insisted otherwise, he made sure that you were comfortable and sitting in a shady spot. You two talked a bit and exchanged glances at each other every now and then, smiling sweetly and laughing at his jokes.

You were enjoying yourself until you looked over at him a little while later to see him chatting up a blonde, who you had to admit, was quite pretty. However, this did make you slightly jealous. Obviously you couldn’t interfere because you weren’t in a relationship with George and if you did it would be awkward.

You just watched from a distance as he talked with her. He would say something and she’d laugh. He was inches away from her face, and the girl didn’t seem to mind a bit.

A little part of you was torn apart inside because it made you believe that George didn’t like you the way you had thought. Maybe he did only think of you as a friend and you would have to accept that, accept the fact that you couldn’t have him even though you wanted him.

You were silent the rest of the time. Once you two got back to your flat you continued to stay silent, rethinking everything. Maybe he doesn’t like me. Maybe the boys were wrong and I got my hopes up for no reason.

George noticed that you seemed a bit off. You weren’t acting like yourself. Usually you would be very talkative and in a happy mood, always smiling. But now you seemed the opposite of that. You weren’t smiling or in a talkative mood and it concerned him.

“Y/N? Is everything alright?” George asked you with concern in his voice. His accent sounded like music to your ears whenever he talked, especially if it was in a gentler tone. But that was the last thing in your mind at the moment

“I’m fine.” You said quite sharply in response

George was shocked at how you responded. Usually you would’ve said no or replied and a nicer tone, but this time you didn’t. That’s how he knew something was wrong

“Are you sure, love? It’s just that you haven’t seemed quite yourself the past few hours.”

“I told you I’m fine! Me not acting like myself has nothing to do with you so just leave me alone okay?” You said as you stormed off into the other room.

George being the persistent person that he is wouldn’t let it go that easily, especially when it came to something like this.

He followed you into the other room and got in front of you quickly to stop you from going anywhere else.

You tried to move around him. He blocked you.

You moved to your left. He blocked you

To your right. He blocked you again

You knew he wasn’t going to give up until he got an answer from you. So you decided to give in, which seemed like your only other option.

“Alright Harrison what do you want?” You asked as your crosses your arms in annoyance

“I want to know what’s wrong with you.”

“What do you mean?” You scoffed

“I mean that something is up. And don’t try to tell me that nothing is wrong because I know that’s not the truth.” George said sternly

“Well I’m sorry but I can’t tell you what’s wrong. So if you’ll excuse me-”

“Why not?” George cut you off

“Pardon?”

“Why can’t you tell me what’s wrong?”

“Because” you replied rather quickly. You were beginning to get annoyed by all his questioning

“Because why?”

“Because I can’t George! Okay? What do you not get about that?! I can’t tell you because you’ll judge me for it and I don’t want to get my feelings hurt by the person I love-”

You stopped yourself as you realized what you had just said and hoped that George didn’t hear it or wasn’t paying attention but you knew that wasn’t the case.

“Wait what did you just say? That you like me as more than a friend?”

There was no point in turing back now. He had heard what you said and you couldn’t change it if you tried. You decided that you had no other option but to go along with it and get it over with

You took a deep breath before you began to speak “Yes I did. And when I saw you talking with that girl today at the ice cream shop, I got jealous. She seemed so into you and you seemed to like her just as much. I- I didn’t know how to react. Part of me was heartbroken because I realized that you would never see me as more than a friend. I didn’t know how to react so I just kinda shut down.”

George was silent for a moment. You were waiting for him to judge you and say he didn’t think of you as more than a friend. But he said something you didn’t think he would say

“Y/N I wasn’t into that girl at all. I like you a lot, and I have for a long time. I was just to afraid to tell you how I really felt.”

You looked up from the ground. We’re the words comming out of his mouth really true? Did he like you back? Or was he just saying that out of pity?

“Really?” You asked him with the element of suprise in your voice

“Really really. I swear on my life”

You smiled sweetly at George and felt your cheeks begin to grow warm. He took a step close to you and tucked a strand of hair behind your ear placing a hand in your cheek afterwords. You rested your forehead against his and pulled yourself closer to him, wrapping your arms around his waist.

“I love you Y/N, and I always will.” George said in a voice barley above a whisper.

He leaned in and closed the gap between you two. Placing a soft, gentle kiss to your lips. You smiled into the kiss and pulled away slightly. “I love you to Geo.” You said leaning in once more.
