It’s crazy how this list probably could’ve been 20-30 songs and most people would know them all.

Can we just take a second to appreciate how accurate the tone is for each riff? Incredible.

Ten Years Gone is just an incredible work of art on guitar (and overall). Always amazed by Ricks ability to demonstrate awesome music.

[RCSmiths]

You can never have enough Zeppelin. One of the most important rock groups in history. Cheers Rick!

[joebutler]

I'm glad he put Ten Years Gone on here! I love that song and like to play it on guitar too!

[tdz]

One of the all time riff kings. I was maybe 11 and my father sat me down in front of the green doored credenza where he had his vinyl and stereo. Prior to that day I never had any interest in it. We sat on the floor and he gave me my musical education that day…selecting albums he had bought over the years. Albums that ignited a fire inside me that never left. The first album he played fir me was the first Led Zeppelin release. That was it for me. I still see the room, can smell the album covers, feel the texture of the credenza and hear the crackle of the phonograph needle. My father just passed and it’s left a hole inside of me. But that day is hands down the best memory I have with him. I’ll be traveling to Florida soon to retrieve these albums, of which he left to me. I plan to find a similar credenza, stereo system and sit on the floor and revisit that day. Rest easy dad. Love you.

“Achilles Last Stand” doesn’t get the love or recognition it deserves.

[lexo]

The Rain Song. Not a riff, an entire composition that you have to learn all of. And when you get to the end, it's totally worth it.

[--..-...-..-.--....]

I gotta say, Achilles Last Stand has got to be the most incredible intro and outro i have ever heard in my life. There is a YouTube video that looped it for 10 hours and i must've listened to the whole 10 hours like 50 times

[davidking]

10 Years Gone is such a majestic sounding song. That and The Rain Song live are probably my top two favorite Zeppelin songs…with about 40 more in third place. What a sound they had.

[maryvallas]

What REALLY makes the "10 Years Gone" riff great though, is the sick bass line that goes with it. I would LOVE to see you do a "What makes this song great" video on it! You always make my brain understand what my ears and heart have known all along!

[samuelbeach]

My guitar teacher would, for the last few minutes of my lessons, show me riffs from all the greats. He could play them just as well as Rick. I asked him one time why he was a guitar teacher in a crummy little music store, and he said "I can play 'em. I can't create 'em."

[NoviJimB]

Some of my absolute favorites that aren't here (goes to show how many great riffs they had) - 'How Many More Times', 'The Rover', 'Communication Breakdown', 'Out On The Tiles', ' Four Sticks', 'Over The Hills And Far Away', 'No Quarter'. Geez, I could keep going! And let's not forget, John Paul Jones came up with some of them. Offhand I can only think of 'Black Dog', but I know there are more.

[ElShogoso]

Man, Ten Years gone is so freaking good. It's my favorite song to play even though it's humanly impossible to replicate it live due to how many layers of guitar it has

[mattglaze]

Raise your hand if you've ever had one of those days where your "practice" session ends up just being 30 minutes of playing through classic 'Zep riffs for the pure joy of it. Great video, Rick. Love your channel!

[HaleysTusk]

Zeppelin blocks videos on Youtube?
Hah, I'm Rick Beato!

[williambennett]

A great reminder of how amazing Jimmy was at creating these incredible riffs

[wallybiii]

Rick actually panned the speakers for specific songs in his playthrough... that's some serious dedication to production.

[jonn]

Tens Years Gone and the Rain Song are two of the best Led Zeppelin songs ever recorded. INCREDIBLY creative and well rounded!
