Led Zeppelin-When the Levee Breaks This is a video of one of my personal favorites by Led Zeppelin, "When the Levee Breaks". The song was released in 1971 on the untitled album, otherwise known as Led Zeppelin IV or the Four Symbols Album. The song was improvised from a version done in the 30s by Memphis Minnie.

Levee Breaks Add to Midwest Flood Problems PlusLevee Breaks Add to Midwest Flood ProblemsLevee Breaks Add to Midwest Flood ProblemsThe Associated PressPeople continue to battle high water in Indiana, Illinois, Indiana and Iowa. (June 10)[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] (VIDEO OF BROKEN LEVY FROM AIR BOAT)Ad another state to the list of those deluged with high water. Two levee breaks have caused water to pour across 50 square miles of an Illinois county which borders already hard-hit Indiana.The Embarrass River exploded through right here spilling millions of gallons of water.(VIDEO OF SWAMPED CAMPERS AND STRANDED JIM MCCLASKEY)But the Lawrence Rod and Gun Club was in the flood path.RV's are swamped and Jim McClasky is stranded on someone else's property.JIM MCCKLASKEY/STRANDED IN LAWRENCEVILLE"WE COME IN THE BACK ROAD. IT WASN'T BAD WHEN WE COME THROUGH. WE FOOLED AROUND ABOUT AN HOUR OR SO OVER THERE. WHEN WE TRIED TO LEAVE. WE TURNED AROUND IT GOT TOO DEEP."MARK CARLSON/STANDUPThis is normally farmland as far as the eye can see.When the Embarrass River levy broke, the landscaped turned into a lake. [Notes:map pull out effect?]In addition to Illinois, severe flooding extends across several midwest states: Indiana, Iowa, and Wisconsin. [Notes:wisc] The village of Gays Mills, Wisconsin was inundated during the weekend, just 10 months after another devastating flood left residents working to rebuild homes and businesses. The swollen Kickapoo River engulfed nearly the entire town. Almost a quarter of the 625 residents have evacuated. Officials say the very survival of the town is at stake.(SOT: LARRY MCCARN/GAYS MILLS VILLAGE PRESIDENT) I'M REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT IT, YES. I AM NOT SURE HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL STAY OR EVEN COME BACK OR EVEN THE BUSINESSES, WHAT'LL HAPPEN TO THEM.Wisconsin's governor will ask for a federal disaster declaration later this week. About 70 miles north, in Lake Delton, families are surveying the damage left behind after Lake Delton overflowed, then emptied. It swept away several homes in the process. (sot: TIM FROMM/lost home)15:21:01 JUST NOT SURE WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK OVER WE DON'T EVEN HAVE LAND ANYMORE. [Notes:pool]In Elnora, Indiana, the breadth of the problem can been seen from the air. The White River has overrun it's banks--reaching 16 feet above flood stage in some places. The state got two inches of rain Monday, on top of the 11 inches received in places over the weekend [Notes:woi] Iowans continue to sandbag to try to hold back the water. The governor has declared emergencies in 31 counties. The downpours that led to all this flooding are also impacting crops. Flooded corn fields have made it difficult for farmers to plant, pushing corn prices to record highs on commodities exchanges. ___ ___, The Associated Press.

Rebuild Mississippi River Mud Levee; New Levee Design With Levees breaking all over the United States of America, a completely different Levee design is needed. Mud is Mud. Dirt is Dirt. Water will "Liquefy" Mud (Dirt). That is a known fact. So why keep on building a system that will break again. That is wasting time and money. I have been presenting this design for the past 3 years. I have been on TV. This system has been emailed to every Senator and Representative in Washington. This system has been sent to every District of the Corps of Engineers in the U. S. This System has been put directly into the hands of Senator Mary Landrieu of Louisiana. This system is even on the Internet and has been viewed by thousands of people all over the world. All have turned a deaf ear to this design. Why? Because the engineers who viewed my presentation could not find any fault with this system. In fact they said that this is exactly what's needed. But will not build it. Why? The reason is that they did not come up with the idea. And second they will not be able to make a bunch of money off of this idea. They have chosen to make more money rather than saving peoples lives. They have had over 60 years to solve the problem with mud levees namely the "Liquefied Zone" (visit my website for meaning). And to date has come up with NO solution of solving the "Liquefied Zone" problem. So they decided to talk about it least as possible. The problem with ALL mud levees is "The Liquefied Zone". This is the bottom of All mud levees where two different types of mud are joining together. They liquefy and begin to weaken. The weakest part of ALL mud levees is the top. When water rises so does water pressure. The tops of ALL mud levees are smaller at the top than the bottom. That is why a completely different design is needed. Mud levees cannot compete with greater water pressure. By building this different levee design; the top of this levee design is the same strength as the bottom. So if water rises, simply add onto this different design as needed and have the same strength to hold back the greater water pressure that has accrued. This different levee design can also be used as a barrier to lower storm surge. This different levee design can also be used for land restoration. These are just some of the ways this different levee design can be used. One design that can be used for multiple purposes that will result in lower cost and a stronger means of protection. But people are to busy with their own agenda. So Almighty God has gotten their attention. Levees are breaking at an alarming rate. How will they be repaired? Sheet pile does not work. Rocks do not work. Levee walls do not work. More mud levees with different mud does not work. Mud is Mud and Dirt is Dirt. Cheap to build and costly to repair. Different people have to get involved. The Corps of Engineers will continue doing what they where thought in school. That's all they know how to do. The contractors they employ will do what they know how to do. The same disaster will happen again. And they know that. That is why they say, we will build it again but it will break. They are thinking inside the box. The answer will come from outside the box. A completely different way of thinking about levees. The problem is that when a design proves to work and save lives it is past own to the people in charge to evaluate. Guess who they are. The Corps of engineers and their contractors. The answer will NOT come from them. The answer has just been presented to you. So you are without excuse to say that a different levee system does not exists. Here it is. So what will you do? Will it take the people to the United States to protest against the current people in charge of protecting them and say swallow your pride and admit that they do not know what to do? When the solution has been given to them all designed and ready to be built. How simple can that be? Maybe to simple. Man makes things complicated. God makes things simple. Man wants personal gains. God offers protection for His people. You have your solution. Build it or continue losing lives, property and business. While the same current people in charge get richer and richer at the expense of human lives.

Led Zeppelin - When the Levee Breaks (Studio Version) "When the Levee Breaks" is a blues song written and first recorded by husband and wife Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie in 1929. The song is in reaction to the upheaval caused by the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927. It was famously re-worked by English rock group Led Zeppelin as the last song on their fourth album, released in 1971. The lyrics in Led Zeppelin's version were based on the original recording. Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin had the original McCoy and Minnie recording in his personal collection. He removed and rearranged lines and line parts from the original song and added new lyrical parts, and combined it with a revamped melody. Recording for the song took place in December of 1970 at Headley Grange. It had already been tried unsuccessfully by the band at Island Studios at the beginning of the recording sessions for their fourth album. The Led Zeppelin version features a distinctive pounding drum beat by John Bonham recorded in a three-story stairwell, driving guitars and a wailing harmonica, all presumably meant to symbolize the relentless storm that threatens to break the levee, backing a powerful vocal performance by Robert Plant. The vocals were processed differently on each verse, sometimes with phasing added. The famous drum performance was recorded by engineer Andy Johns by placing Bonham and a new drumkit at the bottom of a stairwell at Headley Grange, and recording it using two Beyerdynamic M160 microphones at the top, giving the distinctive resonant but slightly muffled sound. Back in the Rolling Stones' mobile studio, Johns compressed the drum sound through two channels and added echo through guitarist Jimmy Page's Binson echo unit. The performance was made on a brand new drum kit that had only just been delivered from the factory. The drum break has long been popular in hip hop and dance music circles for its "heavy" sound, and has been sampled for many tracks. At one time the remaining band members took legal action against Beastie Boys for their use of this drum sample on "Rhymin & Stealin" from Licensed to Ill. Page recorded Plant's harmonica part using the backward echo technique, putting the echo ahead of the sound when mixing, creating a distinct effect. The song was recorded at a different tempo, then slowed down. Plant then sang in the sort-of-in-between key the song was now in (approximately F minor), which explains its sort of flat and sludgy sound, particularly on the harmonica and guitar solos. Because this song was heavily produced in the studio, it was difficult to recreate live. The band only played this song a few times in the early stages of their 1975 U.S. Tour. This song was the only one on the album that was not remixed after a supposedly disastrous mixing job in the US (the rest of the tracks were mixed again in England). The original mixing done on this song was kept in its original form. In the May 2008 issue of Uncut Magazine, Page elaborated upon the effects at the end of the song: Interviewer: How was the swirly effect at the end of "When the Levee Breaks" achieved? I always imagine you sitting there with a joystick... Page: It's sort of like that, isn't it? It's interesting, on "Levee Breaks" you've got backwards harmonica, backwards echo, phasing, and there's also flanging, and at the end you get this super-dense sound, in layers, that's all built around the drum track. And you've got Robert, constant in the middle, and everything starts to spiral around him. It's all done with panning. Tags: Led Zeppelin When the Levee Breaks Studio Version |
