#KASHMERE LED ZEPLIN PROFESSIONAL#
The song is listed highly in a number of professional music rankings: Ezell called "Kashmir"'s "doomy ostinato riff and rapturous post-chorus brass/mellotron section" as "inimitable moments in the legacy of classic rock". In a retrospective review of Physical Graffiti ( Deluxe Edition), Brice Ezell of PopMatters described "Kashmir" as Physical Graffiti 's "quintessential track". Many would regard this track as the finest example of the sheer majesty of Zeppelin's special chemistry. 'Kashmir' went a long way towards establishing their credibility with otherwise skeptical rock critics. Unquestionably the most startling and impressive track on Physical Graffiti, and arguably the most progressive and original track that Led Zeppelin ever recorded. Led Zeppelin archivist Dave Lewis comments: John Paul Jones suggested that it showcases all of the elements that made up the Led Zeppelin sound. It's intense." Reception Īll four members of Led Zeppelin have agreed that "Kashmir" is one of their best musical achievements. Sometimes it sounds like John's got three feet.
"But it helps to have a drummer who understands the part and a bass player who can play bass with his feet. "'Kashmir' actually isn't that difficult", Page remarked during rehearsals for the show. That rendition – released on Celebration Day in 2012 – was nominated in 2014 for the Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance at the 56th Grammys. Led Zeppelin, with John Bonham's son Jason on drums, performed "Kashmir" at Led Zeppelin's reunion show at The O 2, London on 10 December 2007. Page and Plant recorded a longer, live version, with an Egyptian/Moroccan orchestra for No Quarter: Jimmy Page and Robert Plant Unledded (1994) and performed the song with an orchestra on their 1995 tour. The surviving members performed the song at the Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary concert in 1988. A version from Knebworth in 1979 appears on the Led Zeppelin DVD (2003). "Kashmir" was played live at almost every Led Zeppelin concert after its debut in 1975. Instead, Plant was inspired during a drive through a desolate desert area of southern Morocco. None of the group members had visited Kashmir. The lyrics were written by Plant in 1973 immediately after Led Zeppelin's 1973 US tour. Session players were brought in for the string and horn sections for "Kashmir" and Jones added a Mellotron. Page and Plant had previously travelled to Mumbai in 1972 they worked there with various Indian musicians, gaining production ideas during the re-recordings of " Four Sticks" and " Friends".
Plant later added lyrics and a middle section in early 1974, Jones added orchestration. Page recorded a demo version with drummer Bonham late in 1973, when John Paul Jones was late for the recording sessions. Plant felt that the drumming was an important component of the song and that Bonham did not overplay his part. The song combines different rhythmic meters: the guitar riff is in triple meter, while the vocal is in quadruple meter. Page uses a guitar tuning of D–A–D–G–A–D, which he had used for the instrumentals " White Summer" and " Black Mountain Side".
