@nholt Because there isn't a Led Zeppelin without one particular person-John Bonham! I'm so glad Robert Plant doesn't want to do it. It would be an insult to John Bonham. If they decided to go out and tour as Jones, Page, & Plant doing the music of Led Zeppelin w/Jason Bonham, that would be fine with me. I have Led Zeppelin everyday in my life with all the bootlegs I have. The shows I own "ARE" Led Zeppelin, and that's something that wouldn't be achieved with Jason!
nice spot to be, too bad the camera operator was not experienced. moves around too much, too jumpy, not focused on people, should have done one panoramic shot, standing very still. it's easy once you've done it a few times. practice next time before the show.
Attention Drummers/musicians!!! Get the book "realistic rock" by Carmine Appice!! If you like 60's-70's rock drumming it's the Bible. It turned my hopeless brother into a real rock guy. He would work on it every day and half way through the book and after learning the first Zeppelin record beat for beat he would go back to the jams and sound exactly like Simon Kirk of Free and Bad Company...with bonham fills to boot. It could save rock drumming im serious. Amazon.com
Plant could be a mute and still sound better than these twats we have today! I like Robert's voice any way he gives it. Who cares about how he sounded in 75 or whatever!
You're right. When I just started watching it, it sounded like an old rusty sound like. But after a while you can tell there's a master-hand behind it all. I would've liked to see them live . . . They've always been the great grand-daddies of heavy rock
Hows come the two video's for this song do not finish the entire bow solo?? This is dissapointing. I would love to see the rest of that solo or if it leads into another song or whatever!
Yeah... I see why they hung it up after Bonzo died. I always actually expected more from jason. One would think that he would have adapted to his father's technique through the years. I would never have thought he is Bonham's son from just his playing thats for sure.
@AldridgeHalenFreak ...your right...i saw Jason 2 weeks ago...Great show..hes a good drummer...but not John...John was an innovator as was the entire band...
Jimmy Page is by far the most innovative and truly awesome guitarist that has ever picked up a piece of wood with highly wound bits of wire . love , passion and beauty . if you love Page check out Nick Drake . Two masters of beautiful guitar
@happysillysadmad I understand that statement quite a bit. Page is remarkableas a improvisor and great over all player. And he stole a few things too as all of them did. One guy that I really like for over all improvisional and just kicking butt big time was Ritchie Blackmore!! Blackmore cooks! Even with Rainbow watching him live was probably the best over all live player I ever saw. But I know what you mean about Page!! Scary!
As a Zeppelin fan, it sends shivers to hear the crowd going nuts as Jimmy Page takes the bow... we've seen that in old footage (well, most of us), or Song Remains The Same, also the crowd back then was really quiet. Now, this epic moment in Zep history gained a boost of energy from the audience! Awesome!
@NikoBellicinLiberty It sounds like a wah man ... might be a Real Mc Coy Custom ... they are very high end wahs ... i own the wheels of fire and its red just as the whammy , might be also the rmc5 wizard wah !
@HiOctane62 It's john bonham's son I think, I seem to remember watching a BBC documentary and hearing that he trained so well that you wouldnt be able to tell it wasn't his father. Rest In Peace Bonham.
jimmy's guitars sounds so vicious on this song...like it is springing from the tortured soul of aleister crowley himself. need to see this again live.
@ritchiepeyton I think it's good to have a little crowd noise during the song so you feel like you're really there. Otherwise it just sounds like a live studio recording with crowd noises dubbed in at the beginning and end. I think the crowd's excitement adds to the vibe of the recording.
The band is just PERFECT!! But... why still no DVD? Is it the pride thing or what? The concert was great (as I heard and see...), Plant dont want to play again, so no one has a chance to see them ever again live, so why can't they just release one, stupid, lousy DVD? Why wait so long? This is money for them, benefit for rest of the world and right now, everybody is just pissed the fuck off because of no possibility to see them now. 20 000 people is not enough. What with the rest of the world?
I don't why they can't make just one last album, just one! Of course it wouldn't be the same without Bonham but his son is the perfect replacement, they already played together, they gotta come back and save everyone from the crap they call music now!!!
It bloody annoys me how in 1998 the page and plant shows (including John Paul Jones for a few numbers) in london had loads of available tickets on the night. As soon as you re-brand it Led Zeppelin you get flocks of fucking sightseers going. The sort of people who hav only ever listened to Stairway To Heaven. Heston Fucking blumenthal gets a ticket! I bet hes never even heard a led zeppelin song before. All the great and the good. Bet even Tony Blair went as well, bastard.
Its amazingly lucky that the greatest guitarist of all time happened to meet one of the best vocalists of all time and that they formed a band with amazing songs. what if plant and paige never meet? :'(
Well......He's not hitting the same notes... not even close, actually, but the way they have changed many of the tunes to accomodate his age and it's subsequent vocal range are stil far better than 90% of the bands that came along after them !
I'm very impressed with their ability to improvise around Plant's aging vocal chords, I didn't think they could sound this good, to be honest. Right on!!! ZEPPELINFAN LIVES AGAIN!!!
the only reason roberts voice is low is because he didnt listen to a doctor in 72' when he had a cold and it was damaging his vocal chords but he just kept going.. awhll well im still dinging it its fuckiin zeppelin still who gives a danm
@robbie3051 I think I heard the solo section and bonham fucks it up coming out of it. Being like the central piece of the whole DVD, there's no way Page would let that out. My reckoning...
@robbie3051 You wont see any O2 official release of Zeppelin at least. If we see something form this it will be a compilation of all the sets from that night. Remember, it was a tribute to Ahmet, not just a Led Zeppelin concert so it will never be released as just a lEd Zeppelin release and it wont include all of their set. I can tell you that much for a fact.
Plant was never a schooled singer. His "sound" was a forced one, like all those old high notes on the first 5 albums. Had Plant sang "perfect" technically, he'd still be able to sing all those high notes...but it wouldn't sound like Plant. Part of his sound is that forced sound. Love it.
Voices don't even "prime" until about 50. It's a well-known fact among classical singers.
@drakehemlock He would if it were just for the music, but he hates the hype and comparisons to the past. Makes him sick. Page should find a young unkown singer who really rocks and has a lot of soul and form a new project with JPJ and Jason.
man, people react differently to aging, some like tom jones don't change, but others sometimes lose it. Plant as a vocalist is one of the best ever, he could hit unbelievable notes and had an awesome range...and with all do respect to tom jones, even in his golden days, he didn't had plant's range :)
that's fine, but I don't look at him from a range perspective. I think he has a distinctive voice, bluesy way of singing and giving out words. of course we began to recognize it in zep material, and he was there because he was a perfect match to page's style. I can't remember such interaction (basically it was repeating the same phrases) in other bands. so it is the matter of origin. we associate zep songs with plant's voice inevitably.
@TheAlmightyDom Ouch! but hmmmm...that would be quite the choice to have to make. Let's see self neuter or LZ live front row...ok with a backstage pass balls are gone.
Page certainly has not mellowed in his later years.This is as loud and heavy as any version I have heard.Same with "for your life:" the version from that night was brutally heavy.Jimmy is the coolest man on the planet.
I think pages more together these days, I don't know if he indulges anymore, but the JD was killing him and his ability to perform back when..doesn't appear to get that shit faced any more..he's kind better, imo with out getting trashed.unlike Aerosmith they need to drink bourbon, smoke weed,do some speed,go for the blow and play rocks and toys and draw the line,get your wings, and their debut stuff
I would be surprised if he is a tee totaller these days ,but he is much healthier .When Page resurfaced in 88 with Outrider I was relieved he looked so well .Alot of thought when he dissapeared ther for a few years in the 80s that he might go the way of Phil Lynott or Tommy Bolin.And I agree Aerosmith was a different thing altogether before 1980
sad i think not, it will be soul breaking, i h8 knowing the fat that one day ima wake up and my friends gunna call me crying saying one of them die =(
Plant needs to get off of his pissy-wagon and get on with the reunion already!..as the rest of the guys are waiting to do it...but he would rather tour with Krauss???
since Plant has gotten together with that hick chick Krauss, he actually has gotten really boring... not the musical genius that he used to be... I would not go and see Percy and Krauss... I would die of a broken heart to hear Robert stoop that low....
The absolute best performance of this is on the " How the West was Won 3 CD set. Its live zeppelin in L.A. in 1972. It's like 25 min. long with extra solos and stuff. The whole CD set is the ultimate Zeppelin experience. Its the best I've ever heard them sound, it will blow your mind. Check it out.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The best band I have ever seen do this song is ARANDA. I have watched alot of videos and seen bands live and most of them butcher the song so bad I want to turn it off or just walk out. Check out ARANDA's version on YouTube and see if you agree.
I think it was Jake Holmes, then the Yardbirds did there version which eventually led to Page bringing it with him when he formed Zeppelin and creating the best version.
I dunno if you listened to the original songs, but they sound pretty dissimilar to Zeppelin's final product. It's 95% their song. They also played it differently live every tour, and individually improvised a ton.
His voice lost trebble many years ago. Listen to Zep boots from 1980 and it's even evident there. Nowadays, Plant performs many of his Zep tunes one key down to compensate. Songs like Black Dog, Whole Lotta Love, ya know....the high-trebble songs.
He hit some pretty high notes in this concert for his current range. His range is the same since his vocal surgery in 1975. Instead of going high, another way to be powerful and intense is just to go loud (to yell, basically), which is what Dazed and
LOVE,LOVE,LOVE Robert & Jimmy they are gorgeous forever and always.

Page certainly has not mellowed in his later years.This is as loud and heavy as any version I have heard.Same with "for your life:" the version from that night was brutally heavy.Jimmy is the coolest man on the planet.

I think pages more together these days, I don't know if he indulges anymore, but the JD was killing him and his ability to perform back when..doesn't appear to get that shit faced any more..he's kind better, imo with out getting trashed.unlike Aerosmith they need to drink bourbon, smoke weed,do some speed,go for the blow and play rocks and toys and draw the line,get your wings, and their debut stuff
tjfreak 2 years ago
I would be surprised if he is a tee totaller these days ,but he is much healthier .When Page resurfaced in 88 with Outrider I was relieved he looked so well .Alot of thought when he dissapeared ther for a few years in the 80s that he might go the way of Phil Lynott or Tommy Bolin.And I agree Aerosmith was a different thing altogether before 1980

Probably the her0in Page was doing wasn't helping matters. It's hard to casually indulge in

Plant needs to get off of his pissy-wagon and get on with the reunion already!..as the rest of the guys are waiting to do it...but he would rather tour with Krauss???
pappsmeere 2 years ago 6
since Plant has gotten together with that hick chick Krauss, he actually has gotten really boring... not the musical genius that he used to be... I would not go and see Percy and Krauss... I would die of a broken heart to hear Robert stoop that low....

The absolute best performance of this is on the " How the West was Won 3 CD set. Its live zeppelin in L.A. in 1972. It's like 25 min. long with extra solos and stuff. The whole CD set is the ultimate Zeppelin experience. Its the best I've ever heard them sound, it will blow your mind. Check it out.

The best band I have ever seen do this song is ARANDA. I have watched alot of videos and seen bands live and most of them butcher the song so bad I want to turn it off or just walk out. Check out ARANDA's version on YouTube and see if you agree.

but...this band made the song. You're saying they butchered it live because they're playing 30+ years after they originally released it?
vampiricfang2009 2 years ago
I was not saying they butchered this song. Just that most bands do. Did you look at ARANDA's version? It;s about as good a cover as you will find.
11soonerfan11 2 years ago
Actually, Led Zeppelin never made the song.
I think it was Jake Holmes, then the Yardbirds did there version which eventually led to Page bringing it with him when he formed Zeppelin and creating the best version.

I dunno if you listened to the original songs, but they sound pretty dissimilar to Zeppelin's final product. It's 95% their song. They also played it differently live every tour, and individually improvised a ton.

Robert plants voice seems to have lost its trebble. Was to whole show like this?
chinesecantdrive 2 years ago
His voice lost trebble many years ago. Listen to Zep boots from 1980 and it's even evident there. Nowadays, Plant performs many of his Zep tunes one key down to compensate. Songs like Black Dog, Whole Lotta Love, ya know....the high-trebble songs.

He hit some pretty high notes in this concert for his current range. His range is the same since his vocal surgery in 1975. Instead of going high, another way to be powerful and intense is just to go loud (to yell, basically), which is what Dazed and
