For today’s episode, we’re returning to one of the greatest bands we cover on the channel… the golden gods of rock, the mighty Led Zeppelin. Some of our biggest videos have come from the great ones… like Immigrant Song, Good Times Bad Times, and Stairway to Heaven. We’ve covered most of the classics, delving into I think all their studio albums except Presence. That’s still on the to-do list. But today I’ve got something else in mind. Let’s put away Kashmir, Whole Lotta Love, Black Dog, and all the rest of Zeppelin IV… for a few hours and just focus on Zeppelin tracks that have flown under the radar. And for this episode I’ve got a list of five of them. Let’s call it a collection of Zeppelin underrated classics and hidden gems. Included is what might’ve been the band’s most epic song but it was never released… So let’s get into it. So starting off at #5 I’m going with Travelling Riverside Blues… You know, while the members of Led Zeppelin were still together they rarely offered up non-album B-sides. Zeppelin had a history of keeping their rare material under wraps. So when the band released their first-ever box set a decade after their breakup, it was a monumental moment for the Zeppelin fans. The 50-plus track collection dropped on October 8, 1990 and marked the first significant remastering of Led Zeppelin’s catalog. Among the many familiar favorites, the set also contained two previously unreleased tracks, White Summer/Black Mountainside and Travelling River Blues, which is a reinterpretation of blues legend Robert Johnson’s classic. Recorded on June 20, 1937, the song gained even greater recognition when it was included on King of the Delta Blues Singers in 1961.
