  • I wonder what it would have been like to have seen them live in a small setting in 1968-19699, pre-Internet, having almost no idea what you were going to witness.

  • Best band ever to step foot on earth. You can not deny that fact. You just can't. Impossible.

  • led zeppelin me deja con la boca abierta

  • Damn! Thank you for uploading the entire performance of this song, and this one has great audio! I watched this DVD so much that neither disk plays anymore. lol

  • I wonder if those kid's life change for good after that moment.

  • It stopped loading! what the hell!

  • JOHN PAUL JONES IS MR. BASS!!!!

  • Never get tired of this.

  • @lapislazuli7 I know, Just heard it three strainght times already. You never get tired. THAT BASS!!!!

  • @PabloMGP Just lovely. ;-)

  • The Real Deal is right here, folks.

    I've not seen a more important performance.

  • Keith Richards reckons Zeppelin are Page. I agree, but hard to imagine them being as great with that Plant power-voice, the JPJ bass and the Bonzo.

  • Jimmy Page busts out the bow = Everyone's minds blown

  • 1:06 greatest Zep moment ever

  • This is the best R'N'R Vid of all freak'n time!!!! This is how it was done .

  • holy fuck. that was awesome.

  • the greatest band to ever walk the Earth

  • oh my god! what a wonder ... these times that I see is your existence. Thank you for sharing this rare gem.

  • I gotta say that when I saw this version, I blown the fuck away. It was after I heard the BBC sessions version. This is just awesomesauce. The group as a whole is just amazing....even 43 years later!

  • John Paul Jones sooooo under rated, he later produced some of Paul McCarntneys stuff, would have loved to been a fly on the wall in that studio

  • Zero dislikes

    the way it should be

  • Ah, the memories!! Takes me back to spring of 1969, I and some friends used to sit in an unoccupied wooden house together and listen to this song over and over again as we smoked pot and got stoned out of our heads... good times!

  • Great tune, but yeah it's not the Howling wolf song.

  • If there is ever an apocalypse, I hope this is the only evidence of the human race to survive.

  • @HueyRocks23 Lol 2012, perfect time for the comment.

  • This isn't a cover of how many more years it just has a similar title....

  • 7:17 to 7:33 best bass i have ever heard!!!!!!

  • mid-terms can suck my nuts, im gonna jam to this XD

  • A melhor geração do rock!!!!!!!

  • Minha banda de rock favorita,geniais!!!!!!!

  • Arguably the best live performance of any song by Led Zeppelin ever.

  • Led Zeppelin ..Best early performing video

    Greatest Band of all Times 

  • Definitively not a cover of the Howlin' Wolf song. If you look at the lyrics the only thing that's the same is "How many more." The rest of the lyrics were written by Page and Pant (although they did take the "They call me the hunter, that's my name" lyric from the Albert King song The Hunter). The music is also completely different, if you listen to Howlin' Wolf version and the way Page plays it.

  • @nkovachki bassline was from JP's days with the Yardbirds. Modified to what they were doing with Zep...... Definitely originated from Smokestack Lightnin' by Howlin Wolf (duly noted here by Jimmy Page during his intro. These guys were infatuated with Howlin Wolf). You are right though...not a cover...just inspiration.

  • PLANT IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Sitting here as an 18 year young boy, and wishes i was 18 in 1969 :(

  • I love how in the stat of the video Plant put the mic in the stand, then after only 30 seconds he takes it off the mic.

  • Those Danish kids are so fuckin stoned.

  • 8:30-9:00 cracks me up when page is messin with bonham, trying to throw off his timing, notice page's smirk as he looks toward plant and bonham but bonham is completely unphased

  • VERDADEIRAS LENDAS DOROCK AND ROLL...

  • nasci tarde  =/

  • Comment removed

  • there was Mozart then Led Zeppelin, pure genius!

  • I dont think this video is not 1951 though... are you sure it is?? its impossible... no led zep in 51, shout i wish the were together since 51-2012... maybe i got the tittle wrong??

  • @Bonzostriplet the song they covered was made in '51

  • @Bonzostriplet The song was written in 1951. This video is 1969

  • Nostalgico!

  • wow¡ que pinche musica tan chingona

  • They were all modest, thats the best thing about them.

  • fucking epic end

  • Gotta love the Yardbirds throwback halfway through Jimmy's first solo...Over Under Sideways Down I think......

  • @60sAnd70sHardRock Still getting used to this sorry about thanking you twice but I guess that's not a bad thing.

  • @60sAnd70sHardRock Thanks for the support people just don't appreciate music anymore, it seems like it's only my drummer and me sometimes.

  • @60sAnd70sHardRock Thanks for the support, man!

  • this is not cover.... Howlin Wolf ---- this is 100% style of zepp////

  • God our father on guitar, His son on vocals.

  • for me..they are the greatest rock band of all time

  • @60sAnd70sHardRock I am a 14-year-old musician and I aspire to play like Jimmy Page because I am against the garbage that people my age have come to call "music" today.

  • JPJ is on fire starting at 8:15

  • Back in 1969 in NYC we had the Fillmore East where many great bands like Zep made several appearances.

  • Page really knows where he's going with that wah pedal. He's amazing

  • Fucking love Bonham drum fills.

  • great vid one of the best ive seen

  • Love the Smokestack Lightnin riff when Jimmy is introduced. Sounds badass thru the Wah Wah

  • JOHN PAUL JONES = 1 BAD MUTHA FUCKA

  • @TheSoundOfATitan You here him with Them Crooked Vultures? What a great career encore they are for him.

  • 6:56 A GROOVE THAT ONLY THE MIGHTY ZEPPELIN CAN TAKE YOU INTO... THESE GUYS WERE GODS IN THE MAKING

  • <3!!! 

  • brilliant bass playing

    

  • this is the best version of this song on youtube

  • The riff is basically Howlin' Wolf's No Place to Go played in the energy of Smokestack Lightnin'. Lyrics are a mix of No Place to Go and How Many More Years plus additional new lyrics.

  • Absolutely spectacular.

  • human in the fullest of form

  • love that transition down the fret board jimmy does @4:23 !!!

  • JIMMY PAGE IS ONE BAD MOFO!!

  • I don't think the audience had enough chemical stimulation to be allowed to SIT thru this.

  • CHILLS

    

  • @bran1226 nope. zeppelin rules i win

  • @bran1226 ive listened to the album version like a million fuckin times ive listened to howlin wolfs version alot of times to i hear the similarity but it doesnt mean theyre rip offs it just means theres influence all bands take from one another

  • Summer of '69!!

    A magical time in music history!!

    I remember like it was yesterday!

  • @gannonb4u dont tell me you saw this live because im gonna die from jealousy !!!

  • They Call Me The Hunter ... Albert King :)

  • OH ROSIE !!! 

  • it is a mix of old blues songs `[american]

  • im pretty sure led zeppelin wrote this song

  • @chichi1742 this it is actually based on a song written by willie dixon, and performed by the great howlin wolf. check out (you gonna wreck my life) by howlin wolf. it's mind blowing.

  • @bran1226 yeah i knew it influencde but its not a cover

  • Zeppelin=Like a fucking boss

  • Little Robert Anthony...19 years old. Inconceivable now. Robert was absolutely right--there is no way that a group could put itself together from scratch like Zeppelin did today and even remotely hope to take over the rock & roll world like they did.

  • @lashutterbug Yes, and it's remarkable how fully formed and musically mature this band was less than a year after they got together. They were all so young then. Page was the "veteran" of the group, and he was only 25 at this time. I can't imagine a bunch of 20- or even 25-year-old rock musicians being this badass, sure of themselves, and talented these days.

  • @avocate201 you should check out a norwegian band called Inception! they are really good!

  • Comment removed

  • @avocate201 Inception-Yellow dust. its on Youtube ;)

  • @avocate201 Thats what makes them timeless. And consider that Plant was a teenager when they started...He was justin beiber's age....singing like a MAN. Percy, forever the master of "Buhaaaaabyyyyy"

  • @MBledzephed In 1968 i think Plant was 19. Teeanger yes, but justin biebers age, no. Biebers 17 years old. But at 17/18 Plant was singing like a man. Have you heard his pre zep shit? Puts beebs to shame.

  • @MBledzephed Exactly. We live in an age where people like Justin Bieber and the Jonas Brothers are considered "talented" young artists, but Robert Plant and John Bonham weren't much older than those kids when the first Led Zeppelin album came out. And Led Zeppelin pretty much invented a new musical genre and changed the course of rock music history.

  • @avocate201 It was easy that time because they were real men and mature not like the suspiciously low testosterone men they have in America today.

  • @avocate201 ohhhhhh...so true

  • 10:36 I GET IT ITS LIKE SEX

  • This is...too freakin' good for words to describe this!

  • I'd like to introduce Led Zeppelin. Epic song to begin a concert with.

  • true magic <3

  • Just great !"·$%!" fuckin like it !!

  • the fans in the back? little did they know.

  • YES!

  • Bravo!!! This is the best forever!!!

  • HOW COME THERE ARE ONLY 503 VIEWS?!?!?!?!?!!?

  • this is sooooo awesome..... there really are no words that can describe what you are seeing and hearing.... only that enoughpeople HAVE NOT seen this.... LED ZEPPELIN ROCKS!!!!!!

  • KICK ASS!
