Holy shyte....so amazing. They came on like a new beast being born.....saw them in '69 in SF and my little 17 year old mind was totally blown. There IS NOT anything like this today. Sorry for sounding old farty!
I was for years old!!! Can't believe music was so awesome then...but i remember when i was a teenager, i thought it was new!!!! Music stinks nowadays so bad...like idiocracy!!!!
the reason youn listen to music that is 40 years old is because they made music then, i dunno what the hell happened, but it is all i listen to except for a little Soundarden! :)
@ledWilde you say that green day is better? WTF!!!! are you sick? c'mon, LZ has over 40 years and people still listens to it.... what's wrong with this kids??????
@bloodinyourface100 Nope. My profile/channel proves Green Day is better and that I LOVE them! My profile/channel also proves that I hate Led Zeppelin and that I'm only 15 years old. Good day!
much better than the song remains the same. robert actually can hit those high notes in this version. friggen bonzo must have had some titanium alloy drum skins-he beat the crap out of those things! good special effects on the guitar too...did the crowd leave or something?? not a whisper out of them

No hard feelings, but i thought Led Zep, was awful, especially live. Jimmy Page, sounded like someone still learning the guitar. John Bonham, sounded like he was trying to kill his drums. Robert Plant, with his ewws and ahhs, and scooby doobys, really grated on me. John Paul Jones, was the only guy in the group, who could actually play his instrument.
@Torvasal you're talking bullshit.zeppelin were great live and that's how they got their reputation.the press hated these days so live performances was the only way to make the world pay attention to them.1968-1973 were their best years,in performance and studio ;)
Gonzaga? What a venue. Most people hated, and I mean hated these pychedelic bands. I saw fleetwood mac at a bar that lost it's liquor licence and was turned into a teen hangout in belvidere illinios.
It's great to hear music played by it's original musicians, in it's original form... Not hacked and slashed on turntables by wannabees, thugs, punks, mouthpieces and perverts rhyming nonsense to brainless, cheesy faced kids who live in this so-called age of Entitlement...
BOHNAM WAS EQUALLY AS GOOD AS JOHN PAUL,AND JIMMY AND PLANT. THEY WERE LED ZEPPELIN. IT COULD NOT BE LED ZEPPELIN WITHOUT ANY ONE OF THEM. WHEN BOHNAM DIED, ZEPPELIN STOPPED. THEY DIDN'T KEEP GOING WITHOUT HIM, CUZ IT WOULDN'T BE ZEPPELIN. THAT'S RESPECT! THE WHO REPLACED ENTWHISTLE AND BARELY MISSED A TOUR DATE. THAT'S DISRESPECT. TOWNSEND/DAULTRY SHOULD NOT CALL THEMSELVES THE WHO PERIOD!
@dani3ll3saul I'M NOT SURE THAT'S TRUE. I THINK THAT WAS THE PLANT/PAGE TOUR YOU ARE THINKING OF. I WAS 16 WHEN ZEP ENDED, AND THO I BECAME A DEADHEAD THRU MOST OF THE EIGHTIES, I DON'T REMEMBER ANY REUNION TOURS. MANY PEOPLE CALLED THE PLANT/PAGE THING A REUNION CUZ JASON B. WAS ON DRUMS BUT IT WAS NEVER BILLED AS ZEPPELIN. I THINK THEIR ONLY REUNION WAS A ONE SHOW THING IN 2007 AT A BENEFIT CONCERT IN LONDON. I SMOKE A LOT OF POT, SO YOU MAY BE RIGHT, ANY VIDS ON HERE TO PROVE IT?
I remember hear this song on an underground radio station in early 1969. I went out the next day and bought the album. My friends thought I was nuts, but 3 weeks later thought I was a visionary for turning them on to Led Zeppelin. Hearing this brought me back to those days... Thank you.
@markchapterthirteen The chemistry among the four of them amounted to a fifth member. It was beyond simple talent, which is why there is no box set of Coverdale-Page or The Firm.
i dont know if many people know this but this Spokane recording is actually the earliest Zeppelin recording known. And its crazy that it happened in my town and such a huge historical band!
@benheiss They didn't hit the Fillmore East until January of '69. That was their breakthrough concert. I was a huge Yardbirds fan and was looking forward to seeing this band come together after the 'birds broke up in the fall of '68. If you were at this show, you witnessed rock history. Their album wasn't released until mid-January of 1969 -still have several unopened originals that I brought that week.
It's easy to see why Vanilla Fudge was anxious about having Zep open for them on this tour. I guess the boys ended up getting so many encores it was very rough for the Fudge to follow them. I know one person who was at this show, and he said they opened with Train Kept a Rollin, which he was familiar with as a Yardbirds tune, but the second he heard Bonham play , he knew they were in for some awesome shit! The band also had to drive later that night to Seattle in a blizzard in a station wagon!
It's such an "adult" song when you consider Robert Plant is singing these words like he knows life and yet he is 20 years old. After how great the musicians were (Plant, Jones, Bonham), how Robert Plant made you BELIEVE he was a 50 year old blues guy that lived this tough life is a big part of the appeal of Led Zeppelin to me - even 25 years after I started listening to them.
i don't know If any zep fans hav ever felt as i do, but sometimes i wish that, when he was young, robert plant wouldve hit certain notes and wailed a certain bluesy way in some of his improv parts in the zep songs. Like I know for sure that there are some zep songs that he was restraining his full-power, soulful, wail at the climax parts and it just makes me sad to realize that he'll never deliver to that extent again. That's why this stuff really raises the hairs on my neck. It's Legendary.
@narutoisashit - don't question it little dude :) you are wise beyond your years... the best music ever written and recorded is from the 60's and 70's ....
@amadeus2499 as the yrs roll on past that statement is becoming more and more prolific.. we will never have a period in time of great musical awareness and creativity as we had in the 50's/ 60's / & 70's
@narutoisashit You love it cause it was the music from this era, 60 & early 70's that all the artists today listened to and styled themselves after. Most rap beats come from old rock songs. Most music today is sampling yesterdays. Plus, it just doesn't get any better than Zeppelin, Hendrix, The Beatles, Sabbath, Deep Purple, and all those legendary bands. It was just awsome music
@kokanee2010a Yeah and that was made even before them. Dazed and Confused was written by the folk-rock singer Jake Holmes and released as a track in his debut album "The Above Ground Sound" Of Jake Holmes in 1967. That same year Jake Holmes opened for The Yardbirds in a show in New York where Jimmy Page heard the song. Anyways the song is awesome.
wow! if u think this music is overdone in 2010 or cliche ..., that is because everything that followed was influenced by zep ..., or just copied weakly
that's really interesting. you can hear the influence of Vanilla Fudge Led Zeppelin supported on that concert. and you can hear also their very own style of music, of course, it's dazed and confused. and you can hear one of the greatest bands the world has ever seen starting up. I love it!
man its incredible to listen to early zeppelin.. esp when they where doin small areas an their music breaks the amps.. an jesus christ robert plants vocals.. unmatched.. he did create the heavy metal voice.. an he did it well
Most of what influenced the music of Led Zeppelin can be easily heard if one listens to older blues music. Elvis and The Rolling Stones also had a lot of the same people they looked at that inspired their early music. This was old American blues. You can't say that it was entirely that but it was a major contributor.
@GoodGuitarSolos yeah you're right it was kinda harsh. I've got nothing against the Cure. I guess i was taken over by the emotion i felt listening to the great Zeppelin as always.
@0live0wire0 I´m sorry to disappoint you but the cure are a really good band maybe not as good as led zeppelin cuz led zeppelin are just the best of the best. (try not to say im a led zeppelin hater ive got them on my wall my bag and i´ve got loads of t-shirts with em) i just want to say the cure have their style they´re just something else....another style. It´s nothing you could compare.
@0live0wire0 Whoa, there's no need to criticize any band like that. Sure it's a stretch going from an 80's pop punk band to a classic/hard rock band from the 70's, who happened to make history, but really? Suck dick?
I love Led Zeppelin and always have, but the Beatles were in a universe all their own. They influenced an entire generation and their experience with dealing stardom on a professional and personal level was unlike the world had ever seen. It´s very hard to come across an unknown Beatles song that didn´t have a strong cultural impact of some sort. No disrepect to Zep as they were the the biggest band of the 70´s, but no other group has been able to compare to the Beatles before or after.
I would agree with if you reverse the bands names. Just put Zeppelin where you put the Beatles name and vice versa. I've always liked Beatles, but Zeppelin had every bit the impact on music, if not more, that The Beatles did. Of course Beatles were more mainstream so the media fell all over them, but Led Zeppelin was/is absolutely revered and worshipped by three generations now, and I would argue that their music has been more enduring. No disrespect, but Zep remain rock's greatest band.
I think we have to give Beatles props for making several distinctive and brilliant style changes. Zep's only big change in 30 years was switching vocal effects for Robert Plant.
I have always given Beatles great credit, but Zeppelin, despite your damning with faint praise, was every inch as innovative and influential, and for my money, the finest rock band that ever stepped on a stage.
thanx, also love Blood ,Sweat & Tears, Steely Dan, & others, but hard to catagorize them all, nor should they be pigeon hole-ed..like the greatest guitarist argument, the pro's don't keep score, they just either respect another player or they don't..for me i am a semi-pro retired guitarist & i feel either a band or a player moves me or they don't & the only way i rate them is how much this one moves me as compared to another..and that's where I leave it...
i love both zeppelin and beatles. but their are really now similarities besides their legendary and very well known. But in the end i will always side with zep
I picture the audience at about 4:28 where it sounds like Page goes somewhere in outer space with the bow. That place must have been mind-blown watching this in 1968...
i can see saying that about the early beatles, up until about rubber soul, but from 65 onward i dont really think you can call the beatles a boy band. the rolling stones definetely shouldnt be labeled a boy band. those guys are bad ass
i agree that they were good at it but dude, what makes zeppelin so amazing is how versatile they were. sticking to one style is also known as the "one trick pony" and its the killer of alot of bands.
There is a video on youtube claiming zeppelin stole songs and almost every artist did that dont you think ?i think zeppelin took the songs and mad them amzingly beautiful !
Holy crap... I graduated from Gonzaga last year and the student body association could only get crappy bands like Something Corporate, Yellowcard, Guster and Ben Folds to perform at our school. I can't believe one of the greatest rock bands of all time did one of their first shows at GU. Makes me mad I wasn't born a few decades earlier...
Led Zeppelin did more with their influences than any band of the rock era. By that I mean they took the music they loved (as all bands do) and then by applying their unique genius they created brilliant varied and enduring music. Hundreds of bands honored their blues idols with a lifted lyric here and there. The MUSIC Zep created was incredibly original and daring. They came after Zep only because they became the biggest band ever and there was money to be made.
i know i might get "trampled underfoot" (xcuse the pun) here for saying this but while I like zeppelin, The title of BIGGEST BAND EVER has been bestowed upon another band.
BNR Susie yes, you are very very correct. we look up to them. they have created the new era. we love them long long time. up to now still have new, young people to join us. i'm proud to be an LZ fan....
Shut up and enjoy a slice of history. You're not an expert, neither am I. LZ loved the blues. They were paying tribute to Muddy, The Wolf and other icons.
You know it's funny but after reading my last comment I realize how defensive you get about a band that you've invested so much time into. You do tend to go a little on the edge. Rock On and enjoy
the only reason led zeppelin "copied" songs in the early years, was cuz they were proving to everyone how they can take any sort of song and make it amazing. which they did.
Great, great early Zeppllin. Robert learned to sing great blues and rock with Jimmy's coaching, (watch the Zepplin DVD. Robert follows Jimmy's guitar.)! It's amazing how two such talented people came together and brought the best out of each of them to give us such great music. Jimmy Page is a guitar legend, and Robert Plant has proved he can sing everything from blues, folk, rock, and country rock. I'm just proud to be an early Zepplin fan, and a current fan.
i think its amazing that Plant wasnt a big name at all when Jimmy found him. He hadnt been in a band or anything. Just a guy who worked on his vocals all the time by his self. thats dedication.
Why do people have to put labels on musicians.."They are who they are" Not the Beatles, Not the Who..Just Led Zeppelin, All you are trying to do is show how much music experience you have...Which is nothing unless you've done it yourself..
where did you get this ? sound footage like this is extremely rare! imagine its 50 years old. in a few years it might not even exsist. i hope you save this and guard it with your life, cuz thats history in the making right there.. Keep the rare performances coming. legends never die man,john bonham rocks in this one.would you happen to have an early performance of Moby Dick?
Awesome! Sounds raw and mean, This is one of my Fav Zep songs. This version rules!

@0live0wire0 I agree that LZ are amazing, but did you really have to put that ridiculous first sentence there?...
GoodGuitarSolos 1 year ago 2
@GoodGuitarSolos yeah you're right it was kinda harsh. I've got nothing against the Cure. I guess i was taken over by the emotion i felt listening to the great Zeppelin as always.
0live0wire0 1 year ago
@0live0wire0 LZ are amazing, for sure! These early live tapes are really raw and rocking, Plant's singing is crazy...
GoodGuitarSolos 1 year ago
@0live0wire0 I´m sorry to disappoint you but the cure are a really good band maybe not as good as led zeppelin cuz led zeppelin are just the best of the best. (try not to say im a led zeppelin hater ive got them on my wall my bag and i´ve got loads of t-shirts with em) i just want to say the cure have their style they´re just something else....another style. It´s nothing you could compare.

@0live0wire0 Whoa, there's no need to criticize any band like that. Sure it's a stretch going from an 80's pop punk band to a classic/hard rock band from the 70's, who happened to make history, but really? Suck dick?

I think Zeppelin surpassed the beattles bar a wide range and the music the beattles where doing was never done live. Led zepp masterd the live shows.

I love Led Zeppelin and always have, but the Beatles were in a universe all their own. They influenced an entire generation and their experience with dealing stardom on a professional and personal level was unlike the world had ever seen. It´s very hard to come across an unknown Beatles song that didn´t have a strong cultural impact of some sort. No disrepect to Zep as they were the the biggest band of the 70´s, but no other group has been able to compare to the Beatles before or after.
vulture3112 2 years ago
I would agree with if you reverse the bands names. Just put Zeppelin where you put the Beatles name and vice versa. I've always liked Beatles, but Zeppelin had every bit the impact on music, if not more, that The Beatles did. Of course Beatles were more mainstream so the media fell all over them, but Led Zeppelin was/is absolutely revered and worshipped by three generations now, and I would argue that their music has been more enduring. No disrespect, but Zep remain rock's greatest band.

I think we have to give Beatles props for making several distinctive and brilliant style changes. Zep's only big change in 30 years was switching vocal effects for Robert Plant.

I have always given Beatles great credit, but Zeppelin, despite your damning with faint praise, was every inch as innovative and influential, and for my money, the finest rock band that ever stepped on a stage.

thanx, also love Blood ,Sweat & Tears, Steely Dan, & others, but hard to catagorize them all, nor should they be pigeon hole-ed..like the greatest guitarist argument, the pro's don't keep score, they just either respect another player or they don't..for me i am a semi-pro retired guitarist & i feel either a band or a player moves me or they don't & the only way i rate them is how much this one moves me as compared to another..and that's where I leave it...

i agree that they were good at it but dude, what makes zeppelin so amazing is how versatile they were. sticking to one style is also known as the "one trick pony" and its the killer of alot of bands.

Led Zeppelin did more with their influences than any band of the rock era. By that I mean they took the music they loved (as all bands do) and then by applying their unique genius they created brilliant varied and enduring music. Hundreds of bands honored their blues idols with a lifted lyric here and there. The MUSIC Zep created was incredibly original and daring. They came after Zep only because they became the biggest band ever and there was money to be made.

the only reason led zeppelin "copied" songs in the early years, was cuz they were proving to everyone how they can take any sort of song and make it amazing. which they did.

Great, great early Zeppllin. Robert learned to sing great blues and rock with Jimmy's coaching, (watch the Zepplin DVD. Robert follows Jimmy's guitar.)! It's amazing how two such talented people came together and brought the best out of each of them to give us such great music. Jimmy Page is a guitar legend, and Robert Plant has proved he can sing everything from blues, folk, rock, and country rock. I'm just proud to be an early Zepplin fan, and a current fan.
Thank you!

i think its amazing that Plant wasnt a big name at all when Jimmy found him. He hadnt been in a band or anything. Just a guy who worked on his vocals all the time by his self. thats dedication.
