Hello music lovers and Hello hivers!
It's Tuesday, and you know what that means – time to share some tunes for the brilliant #threetunetuesday initiative started by 
This week, my inspiration comes from an unlikely source, but one with a rock 'n' roll connection... If you saw my post on Saturday then you know that connection is Beavertown Brewery.
For info the post is Beavertown and Puss on Tap in Beer Saturday 410
Maybe you know their eye-catching cans and glasses like my one above, ot maybe you know one of their delicious craft beers like Gamma Ray or Neck Oil?
Well anyway I found out that Beavertown was founded by Logan Plant.
If that surname rings a bell, it not's really surprising as afterall he's the son of the legendary Golden God himself ~ Robert Plant ~ as in the frontman of the mighty Led Zeppelin!
So, inspired by the Plant connection via Beavertown, let's dive into three absolute classics from Led Zeppelin.
Pouring Out Some Zeppelin Vibes
It is Tuesday and that of course means that it's #ttt or #threetunetuesday and so it's time to share some tunes with you!
Do go support
Long live #ttt 😁🎼 and #threetunetuesday
Where to start ~ Led Zeppelin the phenomenon!
Seeing Logan forge his own creative path with Beavertown brewery and building something vibrant and psychedelic got me thinking about the fluffing monumental creative force that his father was part of.
Even though Led Zeppelin were before my time of course I know them. Led Zeppelin wasn't just a band, they were a phenomenon that redefined rock music in the 1970s.
They were formed in London in 1968 and the lineup was Robert Plant (vocals), Jimmy Page (guitar), John Paul Jones (bass/keyboards), and the late, great John Bonham (drums).
They created a sound that blended blues, hard rock, folk, and psychedelic influences into something entirely new and massively influential.
I am sure you know some of these songs, for the youngsters reading you might know the band but I am sure you will know the tune!
So today we have three tunes from Led Zeppelin
Tune 1 ~ Led Zeppelin - Whole Lotta Love
Whole Lotta Love was from the album Led Zeppelin II released in 1969.
God knows how many times I have heard this blaring out of pub jukeboxes when I have been drinking.
You can't talk Zeppelin without that riff. Whole Lotta Love opened their second album and is pure raw energy.
Built around in my opinion one of the all time greatest guitarists Jimmy Page's iconic, bluesy guitar figure and Bonham's thunderous drumming it's just fluffing awesome.
Plant's wailing vocals soar over the top, and the psychedelic, experimental mid-section still sounds wild today. It perfectly captures the raw power and blues roots that underpinned so much of their early work.
It hits you immediately just like a bold, flavourful beer!
Tune 2 ~ Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven
Stairway To Heaven was from the album Led Zeppelin IV released in 1971.
Okay, it's perhaps the most famous rock song ever recorded, and for good reason. "Stairway to Heaven" is an epic journey in eight minutes.
I loved this song and played it at school for a reason...
Starting with delicate acoustic guitar and recorders, it gradually builds through layers of instrumentation – electric piano, bass, drums – culminating in Page's soaring, iconic guitar solo and Plant's powerful final verses.
Yep it got so many of us involved playing it, I was one of the ones playing recorder.
The mystical lyrics have fascinated listeners for decades, funnily enough not so much as I don't really interpret lyrics and words🤣.
Tune 3 ~ Led Zeppelin - Kashmir (Live from Celebration Day)
Kashmir was from the album Physical Graffiti released in 1975.
I have purposely chosen this version with Led Zeppelin performing 'Kashmir' live at the Ahmet Ertegun tribute concert at London's O2 Arena from the concert film 'Celebration Day'
Wherever John Bonham is, he would be proud to see that his son Jason is playing drums with his uncles, Robert, Jimmy and John Paul.
With Kashmir, India and Pakistan unfortunately in the news it was an obvious choice for me to include it.
This is actually my favourite Led Zeppelin song and Plant has often cited it as one of Zeppelin's finest achievements, capturing a feeling of driving through a barren landscape. It’s grand, majestic, and showcases their more experimental, world-music-influenced side.
We are actually going out tonight to see our local orchestra so what better way to get into the mood with some strings and brass!
This is the kind of track you can get lost in, just like exploring the psychedelic artwork on my Beavertown glass.
So there you have it – three monumental tunes of rock from Led Zeppelin, sparked by the thought of Logan Plant's Beavertown Brewery. It's fluffing amazing how creativity runs through families, branching out into different, equally cool directions!
Mind you rock 'n' roll and beer go hand in hand, don't they!
I hoped you enjoyed watching and listening to these as much as I had showcasing them!
Which was your favourite Led Zeppelin tune or was it one of the many others that could have been chosen? Or have you never heard of them?!?
