#08 (Part 1) - The Nobs - 01-09-70 - How Many More Years

[przemuniak95]

where i can find this bootleg?

[68SSCAM]

This sounds like it is in E Flat because it has been slowed down a small amount. The drums and symbols even sound deeper along with plants voice which can't possibly be tuned down. I have the original recording of this exact concert and it does not sound like this.

This is in normal standard tuning, but the track is slowed down

[ledZep342]

Can you upload the other songs from this source?

[puddypuss]

its good to hear a different fuller version of this. I was at this and I wish they could have released more of the whole concert, though it was three hours long.

[ledZep342]

around 9:24 it is edited.

[ledZep342]

jkn

[ledZep342]

I wish they had the full version on the dvd.

[tombolo191]

Is the editing out of the introduction the only change made for the DVD? Also why is this audio lower pitched/slower?

[ledZep342]

@tombolo191 No

[vincevega0]

Alan Lomax,Negro Prison & Blues Songs Rosie

This is also where Robert got some lyrics from....nice to hear this original ...it's available on You Tube.

:)

[Harpdr11]

It is in E flat.

[pepperc2900]

@Harpdr11 maybe he is playing down a step

[pepperc2900]

@Harpdr11 maybe he is playing down a half step

[ledZep342]

@Harpdr11 This actually runs a bit slow.

[Harpdr11]

It is in E flat.

[Monoaux]

Jimmy's solo at seven minutes in too much.

[ttnorna]

no,they had to change the name to the nobs when touring Germany so they didn't offend baroness von zeppelin

[yoursooowrong]

robert plant is not of this world.

[CallMeTheHunter]

1:38 WTF?!?!

[LinkBulletBill]

What? He said "Myself, Robert Plant..."

[Vladymir1916]

Yes, and so what?

[zachmcfatridge]

so?

[LinkBulletBill]

@zachmcfatridge

I replied someone who said something completely wrong of what Robert Plant said...

[zachmcfatridge]

@LinkBulletBill ohhh i see much clearer now

[CallMeTheHunter]

best version of this song is off the danish tv version or whatever

[FrequentlyFried]

k this is werid ..on the DVD he tunes his top string down to D but than when he starts playing its in standard tuning(i was just playing along with it ) And now this recording is like his guitar is tuned down a whole step ..it must be only this recording. Anyways I figured out what he is basically playing during the intro. in standard tuning,I play it as an octave chord using A and G strings at the 5th and 7th frets and then slide down one poistion and then 5 --7--0 on the E for the dah dah dah

[bfish89ryuhayabusa]

He was tuning down for ":Moby Dick", which was actually before "How Many More Times" (as HMMT was their set closer.) The song order was changed, as several earlier songs were taken out, which made it feel too early for a drum solo.

[wholelottalove1969]

do u have any other bootlegs of this concert?

[wholelottalove1969]

well for the led zeppelins other name the nobs during there early tours a actual desendant of the man who made zeppelins saw there name and was threating to sue them so they made a tempoary name the nobs for them

[bfish89ryuhayabusa]

Actually, it was Zep who came up with that one. Zeppelin calling themselves "The Nobs" is pretty much like a modern American band calling themselves "The Balls" (Really, that is the same exact thing.) As for your question, check my response to FrequentlyFried, and The Garden Tapes website.

[wholelottalove1969]

wait the last comment i sent doesnt make sence i meantt on the one from the led zeppelin DVD he tunes his top string down but wen he plays it still sounds standard tuning

were did u get the bootleg for this? didnt knoe he tuned down his gutiar a whole step either

[wholelottalove1969]

yeah at the start of the song u hear jimmy page tune down but then it doesnt sound like it but on this one u can does anyone knoe where i could find some tabs for this? orr like a lessson video thingie

[enther7]

i dont get the nobs thing Zep os my favorite wat is the nobs all about?

[tomitstube]

wikipedia tells the story.  "The Nobs".

[Phenomenon58]

@enther7 They were doing a concert in a different country and i think something happened and the royalty of that country were named Zeppelin or had zeppelin in their name. So they had to change it for that gigg.

[rybazeppelin]

one of the best, if not the best performance of this song

[TheTwinLights]

I like the sound of this better than the DVD

[DDRNinja300]

hey these notes are lower than E.. is it just the recording? Or did they tone it down for this concert?

[TheTwinLights]

its E flat I think

[pepperc2900]

no its E, they never changed the key in a jam in E, its the recording

[DDRNinja300]

I know what your saying.. but i mean literally the pitch of this video is lower than E... im stroking an E right now.. its not E! XD

Lets just all agree this a kickass song!

[bababooey2002000]

Dude, don't forget to mention Plant sings some lines from "On The Way Home" by Buffalo Springfield/Neil Young. It starts at 8:06 to 8:30.

When the dream came

I held my breath with my eyes closed

I went insane, like a smoke ring day

When the wind blows

By the way, great bootlegs, and yet another great performance by the almighty Nobs!

[sreambadno]

i would love to have the tab to the solo

i would suck a dick for it... lol maby not

[Ravenite1]

dude! Cmon!

[antwashere2293]

wait so this is the audio from teh show on the zep DVD?

[pepperc2900]

yea except these are the REAL tapes...

[mikederka]

how many shows did jimmy play sober? i know that after 73 he was fucked up like 24/7 but idk about early zep

[ZepKnebworth79]

does any1 no the tabs for this live version?!

[pepperc2900]

no that would be so hard to do...

[ZepKnebworth79]

why, how about from :08 to about 0:45 ?? just that beggining is the main thing i need.

[pepperc2900]

its in E. if that helps

[ZepKnebworth79]

oh ok hmm ill just try to tab it out myself ughhhhh lol

[ZepKnebworth79]

can you get some early versions of rock and roll????????? plszzzzzzzzzzzzz

[pepperc2900]

early versions? they all sound the same...

[ZepKnebworth79]

rofl, dude plants voice is significantly higher in early years compared to 77 79 and stuff

[pepperc2900]

well i mean like its practily the same, they play it the same amount of bars every time

[ZepKnebworth79]

all i care about is plants voice, if you cant get rock in roll, i would much rather have over the hills and far away anyways

[wldw10]

Hey Pepper,

Have you thought of putting up a bunch of the Plantations? I love being able to hear him inbetween songs, it gives you additional insight to the atmosphere of the gig. Thanks!!!!

[pepperc2900]

just plant talking?

[wldw10]

Ya Plant's chatter between songs. He was really quite a talker..."In between last time we came & this time, we managed to get an album out" ....all that stuff. thanks so much

[pepperc2900]

lol well hes so silly too! my fav is the last day at earls court

[wldw10]

This is one of my favorite gigs. Full on rocker straight to finish. + the playfull Come On Everybody & Something Else seems like it was so quick, like ok, lets do that one, & then away they go. Love it straight away!

[acidtones1]

Pepperc2900 is really Jimmy Page! I've blown your cover, Mr. Page. That's why he has all these bootlegs! He wants to share his music only with his most devoted fans on youtube.

[pepperc2900]

lol well i'm verysorry AcidTones1 but i am much to busy to put all of these bootlegs up myself, so i let my good friend Thomas Rutherford help me out, I'm much too busy rehersing for the reuinion tour...(woops did i type that outload) ;)

[amorrisseyprodromou]

you arent are you? lol.

[pepperc2900]

lol maybe i am, maybe i'm not...

[amorrisseyprodromou]

hmm.... i just talked to a famous guy... sweet...

[acidtones1]

I knew it! It is him.

[pepperc2900]

good stuff...:)

[pepperc2900]

yup

[pepperc2900]

lol oh well you can find the edited dvd at any good musci store its called "Led Zeppelin DVD"

[pepperc2900]
