-Do bands like Zeppelin, Floyd, The Doors, Hendrix and the Who give you chills? Are you physically attracted to seeking truth in music? Well I am formally inviting you to take a listen to my channel, relax and let you ears fully enjoy my sound. I would love it if you took the time, they wont leave you disapointed. And in case if you end up liking it, your subscribtion to my channel will help me show the world my music. Much Love.
Also, he had already fatigued his voice a bit from a heavy tour schedule (and oversinging too much at one of the shows previous to this one I believe). Anyone who criticizes--note that you cannot sing 100% at every show when you're singing songs that are as challenging as these. And they were on a really brutal tour schedule. If you want to hear him really wailing on this song, listen to the first time they did it live in Belfast March 1971 (here onYouTube)-where his voice was fresh.
JustinPierce, true his voice was much better in '77 than it was in '75, but he still couldn't hit the high notes with the range, power, tone or clarity that his voice had from '69-'71. When I listen to some of those concerts from 1969 I think that the people in the back row must have felt a breeze when he hit the high notes. To compare, just listen to a concert from '77 (better than '75) compared to '71 or earlier.
justinpierce1226 what do you think of plant singing zeppelin songs much softer with band of joy. I really don't like it as i prefer the zeppelin era version
You're right. His voice did go after Houses of the Holy. He still sounded good though. I like the way he sounded in '68 and '69. But now, not so much.
I tell you one thing. In the first few years when Zeppelin live were lean mean and hungry there's never been anybody that has touched them. Listen to high quality recordings of some early Zep shows on a good sound system and the best rock of today will sound almost lame by comparison.
@culinaryrocks I'll help you end it lol. My grandfather was a roady with Led Zeppelin and still remains a close friend of Page and Robert. Here is the background: Robert Plant did NOT do vocal warm ups or practice much. The band was pure and chaotic and irratic. His voice started taking a toll from not resting it properly, and in the face of what people often believe, he evolved his voice into a pure state. 1974 his voice had gone. He got surgery. By 1977 his vocal power returned.
Rofl I think it was this concert but they were tuning while robert keep the crowd busy someone sounded like they threw a egg and robert replyed "fuck you mate"
Before plant's voice really started to go after "Houses of the Holy," it seemed he chose to hit the high notes some nights and not others. It still doesn't change the fact that he was one of the best vocalists in rock history!
@registerman07 noone really ccares about highnotes,its the atitude and voice,pure rock n roll,like bon scott,he didnt hit them that often,but yet you have to love 'em
@3agleh bon scott tries, you can tell that his voice starts breaking after a while of singing live as he gets puffed, which ill admit isnt very proffesional but the notes are literally impossible to hit for him after a he runs out of breath so he sings the next highest note he can. However robert plant is just giving up coz hes too lazy to sing properly
@nananaalgoodaye ever have a bad day? or better yet...ever have to sing the same song over and over and over til you can't even remember what song it is you're singing at the moment? nobody's perfect! it's impossible for a singer to recreate a performance perfectly the way he did it in the studio. But at least he's up there doin' it, and not sittin' on his rumpus criticizing someone else for not doing it right!
@PAULOcbi oh my god every singer who fucks up or is lazy live gets bullshit about a throat disease or something, like matt tuck, ronnie winter, matt heafy. David coverdale was told he could never sing again before he went off to sing some of his greatest performances ever
@nananaalgoodaye I know but its not bullshit baby its a fact,do the research.Freddie Mercury was told to have throat surgery too for polyps but refused `cos his voice was ALL important.Your prolly not a big enuff to know these details but just take my word if ur too lazy.
Auckland is way better than anything I've heard for this song and stairway, but sadly no immigrant song. I have dreams of how perfect immigrant might have sounded, then again I also have nightmares :P
Too bad Japanese were not recording videos during concerts because most of Plant's highlight years were never on tape ... You know 68 71 gold years they were young hungry out to prove their stand in rock ...
Later years they started partying too much(cant blame them)
this night was my favorite Moby Dick, it is when Bonzo did not want to play it any more, so the arrangement was compleatly different. Military drum rolls.
It sucks, they had recorded some of the Jap shows for a live album but Page was not happy with the quality of the recordings and erased most of them.
They're playing it 'way' too fast.

Plant had two surgeries for throat polyps,it diminishes power and range ,and in some cases you can lose your voice if you dont heal right,
