this was my first concert at 16 thought they would all be like this nothing come close even if the toilets colapsed half way through and always remember the race through the park when the gates where pulled down at 5 in the morning awsome !!!
Is this from the first or second Knebworth night? Cause I saw another video of this song at Knebworth, and Jimmy plays well and the whole thing is different, and I don't know which night is which
I was there, I was there, I was there. Absolutely fantastic night. They were superb and I was only 14 years old. They don't make them like this anymore. What a rock band!!
I'm trying to talk my nephew into buying a white suit like JPJ's for bassplaying duties, he's ignoring me solidly. I tell him "look at these fashions!", he just doesn't listen.
STOP CRITICISING >. I WAS BROUGHT UP ON THIS BAND BAND BY MY BROTHER FROM AGE 10 AND I FINALLY SAW THEM LIVE AT THIS CONCERT >>WHEN I WAS 17.. IF YOU WANT PRFECT STUDIO SOUND FROM THE 70'S LOOK UP THE OSMONDS OR ABBA ..THAS THE WAY IT WAS THEN ..YOU BUNCH OF IDIOTS
Led Zeppelin's dedication to 'Little Walter' Devine. He is a DJ from Derry,NH. His show Litttle Walter's Time Machiene is about the first decade of Rock & Roll from 1954 to 1964.
Wait. Sorry. Bonzo was in RARE form and was fully in control of his game. Sorry Bonzo. You could always carry yourself behind your drum kit.
And JPJ was of course taking care of his deal. But the two frontmen....well, they were just plain washed up by 1979...one from 2 much heroin, the other from not being judicious with use of screams.
Look no one can dispute the power of this song and the greatness of Led Zeppelin. But who can honestly say that this is a good performance? Plant can't SING anymore by 1979. He CANNOT hit the notes AT ALL. And page's licks are nowhere compared to the studio version. THEY SUCKED here. Sorry.
and every other recording and video I've seen since 1973 is the same, right? they were tired. they were this they were that. Bottom line: Page was WASTED. Page's mind is currently wasted. Page can't remember what he was even doing back then today. He can't access the memory banks from those days. They don't exist. and Plant hasn't been Plant as a singer since the mid 70's.
@stutty1400 I was and I wasn't. I'm 45 yrs. old. Believe it or not, I was a Zeppelin fan back then in the 70's. I remember going to see the Song Remains the Same at the midnight movies back then and thinking to myself "why did they put this movie out? They SUCKED! Plant couldn't sing and Page played like some roadie who tunes his guitars!" I have always felt that way about any live performance I've ever seen or hear by them, EXCEPT for the early shows. I never saw them live however.
@travkatz this was plants voice at is best and new form since early 73. and some OCCASIONAL shows in 77, one where he actually sang the high parts of Over the hills and far away, Plants voice changed after 73 and finally got good control of his new voice by the 79
@livezeppelin yeah and his "new voice' is a remnant of Robert Plant, a weak remnant at that. He ruined his voice. Period. He should have taken singing lessons.
@travkatz ha, good joke, if plant took lessons he would have never had that robert plant voice, he would have had a chorus type voice and zeppelin wouldnt be zeppelin, between heavy touring, and a couple packs of cigs day, it was bound to happen, page shoulda took lessons apparently too right? cuz if you study him in school his guitar "techniques" are abnormal to the "right way". please, this all made zeppelin unique and the biggest band in the 70s
@Nonah1223 oh totally forgot geddy and rush, i only really really really like neil pert, and i like ian gillans high pitched screams better than geddy's, but geddy lee is pretty amazing too, who doesnt rock out to tom sawyer???
@Nonah1223 Yeah, but he doesnt play it like pagey does, not life in it, page may be sloppier, but you are like there, Alex Lifeson doesnt improvise or anything, and i mean, Pagey wrote Stairway to heaven and kashmir (: Neil Pert wrote all rush songs, which is why he is drum god (:
now days its the other way around,teeny weeny t-shirts was cool around here for a while,check out,"SatisfactionGuaranteed" ,JimmyPage and PaulRodgers in the Firm,its a riot,
Exactly lol. Heroin often does this to even the most in control users. Heroin, alcohol, Marijuana and other stuff combined will take down anybody. His weight dropped a lot because of this toxic cocktail. Truthfully, if Bonham didn't die, Jimmy was on his way out. His attitude, physique, power, and stamina went way down. He even had a few heart problems because of this. Though, he stopped and most issues stopped Thankfully.
@raaaaaaaaaak no the songs are from the 4th only on the dvd although jimmy page used some video from the 11th for some unknown reason even though 4th audio is played on top of it they are only small clips
I was there and I'll be boasting to the grandchildren about that if I ever have any. Oh and all this picky x is better than y stuff suggests to me a fundamental lack of understanding around rock n roll. You either hear it in your head or feel it in your balls. Who gives a f*ck who's technically 'better' than who.
Good comment quantise, I was there too, and It's one of my stories to my kids! Also saw the Stones, Utopia, 10cc, Lynrd Skynrd and a load of others! WHAT A WEEKEND!!! I wuz wrecked!
i love how everyone's so damn picky about everything. the way he sings, the way he plays guitar, the way he's quiet, the way he bashes the drums, as opposed to the way he wails, the way he plays drugged, the way his outfit looks, the way he plays when drunk. come on now. its great to express your opinion, but just sit back and enjoy the spontaneity of it. your not gonna get any more of it. at least not soon.
no offense to zep or anything but plant sounds so much better in studio. don't take this the wrong way, i hate everything modern and love everything zep but plant really does sound better. i would give anything to live in the era of these gods but plant sounds so much better in studio. i know someone is going to rip me for this but oh well.
Mayby he sounds better in studio but imo we should respect the fact that he is not afraid to sing live and he is doing it amazingly... show me an example of modern band which can do same MUSIC show like zep did through so many years... for me the measure of being "music god" is an ability to do same thing on stage as you did in studio... zep went one step further couse they always improvise what makes them greater in fact :)
Lets be real ... Zep was a studio band, even Page acknowledged that. Xcept Plant He used to take days to record a track, whereas JPJ and JB and JP could do it in one take). They were musicians more than head thumpers. Their music was way ahead of its time ... Just look at the number of Symphonic Orchestras who have played their music (many of which did not recreate the atmosphere of the originals)
I disagree, royal albert hall was a magical concert, and let's not forget moby dick was definitely better live, and also they imporvised live which was what I like about them, they were great at doing that :)
Shockingly poor sound quality. Planty never could sing but sounds like a strangled cat here. Zep were a great band. Live they were inferior to The Who but so were everyone else but this is poor.
They're both amazing bands. Don't rule out The Who. You only have to watch "Won't Get Fooled Again" or "Baba O'Riley" on here to realise they are way up there with LZ. Quite different bands, both brilliant.
Just face it. Led Zeppelin had a better drummer, bassist, guitarist, and of course a better singer. Roger Daltrey just made The Who worst. Pete Townshend could have made the same without Keith, John, or Roger because he practically wrote every good song The Who has, even the lyrics!
the who is much better live , keith is the greatest drummer ever.. Pete is better live than Page, the John Entwistle is the king of the bass .. I like Zep more than the WHo
Bonzo was the greatest drummer ever. Kidding me right? Townshend better than Page? Led Zeppelin was the best live band ever. Every performance was different, their connection and improvisation has no match. About John and Jonesy, it's difficult to say who was better. They were both great but Jonesy is always underrated. In my opinion Jonesy is just better.
The Who are far more interesting live, with a better catalogue of songs to perform. Zeppelin live could sometimes descend to plodding repetition. And Page's playing could be notoriously sloppy (*ducks from flying chair).
Ok man it's just stupid to discuss with you. Zeppelin was, is, and will be the greatest band ever. The only really good song The Who has is Baba O'Riley. Yes, Page could be sloppy but that was his magic. He plays better than Townshend and no one doubts that. Plus, he wasn't always sloppy, he started on '75 mostly.
JImmy page sucks live... and i will never stop saying that. he is the best next to jimi hendrix and david gilmour.. but live damn he suckks listen to the solos
I have been defending Jimmy Page live for a long time now. He did not like to play the studio versions and he wanted to "feel" it or improvise during the concerts. He can be tight if he wants to (he was the best session musician in England before the joined theYardbirds). Plus I don't think people realize how much herion he was using during the time it's amazing he even made it to '79....the drug used to be nicknamed "Page". When your name is linked to a drug.........................
Who's Next is consistently better songwriting from start to finish than the No Name album. In general his songs are wittier, more interesting, and more droll than those of that huge, disgusting object you compare him to.
The Who was more repetitive, they belong to those bands that play a song note by note. And it's obvious that sometimes Plant's voice was destroyed, I mean thay performed almost every night and the gigs lasted like 3 hours.Disgusting!? So you are saying that Untitled is disgusting!? I would be more careful before choosing the adjectives to describe one of the best albums ever made, sir. I'm 16, do you have any problem with that?
Pete Townshend referred to LZ as that "huge, disgusting object". I think he meant the band's image and perhaps the Zep icon. I wasn't thinking of Untitled. Which, by golly, is one of my favourite discs. And so is Who's Next.
Sometimes I like one band better, sometimes the other. What I admire most in Zep was their firm control over their own product.
Please don't tell us any more personal data like your age.
Zeppelin had a wider variety of songs and covered many genres. Zeppelin repetitive?? You have to start listening more bootlegs. Daltrey better than Plant? If I were you I would get a new pair of ears. Finally, if you think Townshend wrote better songs, COULD YOU PLEASE FUCK OFF, GO TO LISTEN TO THE WHO AND LET US LISTEN TO THE GODS OF ROCK!
I said Zep *sometimes was repetitious. Good concert example: Trampled Underfoot.
The accelerando section of Stairway would have sounded better with Moon on drums.
Sometime in 1972 Plant's voice was destroyed. After that he could no longer go higher than A, yet they insisted on opening every concert with Rock 'n Roll. The cracking voice on the first verse would be forever painful "Been a long t *& me" OUCH!!! Check the bootlegs if you don't believe me.
Hey what about Humble Pie? They may be a little forgotten these days but in the early 70's they were phenomenal live band.There's not much live footages available but what it is put on YouTube surly can give you an idea how good they were
Some live stuff on YT

Actually I'm in awe of Marriott's live vocal delivery
Live at Leeds and Rockin' The Fillmore -a very top live albums of the 70's IMHO
um I don't know if you have ever been on a stage playing your ass off...but by the end of the night you would be sweating pretty badly as well. those lights are freaking hot. but the drugs don't help either.
I love the story behind this song. John Bonham was whaling on the drums, Jimmy Page jumped in, and whatever song they were going to record went out the window.
You try playing this song when stoned and exhausted. This was the end of their set and Jimmy was high as a kite the whole time. Plant's vocal chord operation never helped at all either. Give them a break.
And saying Bonham + JPJ is a weak rhythm section... you're insane...
poor fragile jimmy... he didnt eat his meat and he was much to weak to handle a serious junk habit... good thing he didnt get as bad as keith richards because he would have died.
if i had a time machine the first thing i woud do woud be to watch a zep consert then save jesus from the jews by bringing a ak47 back in time then id save bonzo and after that kill hitler(:

Just face it. Led Zeppelin had a better drummer, bassist, guitarist, and of course a better singer. Roger Daltrey just made The Who worst. Pete Townshend could have made the same without Keith, John, or Roger because he practically wrote every good song The Who has, even the lyrics!

the who is much better live , keith is the greatest drummer ever.. Pete is better live than Page, the John Entwistle is the king of the bass .. I like Zep more than the WHo

Bonzo was the greatest drummer ever. Kidding me right? Townshend better than Page? Led Zeppelin was the best live band ever. Every performance was different, their connection and improvisation has no match. About John and Jonesy, it's difficult to say who was better. They were both great but Jonesy is always underrated. In my opinion Jonesy is just better.

Townshend wrote better songs.
The Who are far more interesting live, with a better catalogue of songs to perform. Zeppelin live could sometimes descend to plodding repetition. And Page's playing could be notoriously sloppy (*ducks from flying chair).
Plus the Who had marvellous 3 part harmonies.
Daltrey sang and looked better than Plant.

Ok man it's just stupid to discuss with you. Zeppelin was, is, and will be the greatest band ever. The only really good song The Who has is Baba O'Riley. Yes, Page could be sloppy but that was his magic. He plays better than Townshend and no one doubts that. Plus, he wasn't always sloppy, he started on '75 mostly.

Jimmy Page 10000000 times better than Pete Townsesnd at the guitar, LIVE and IN THE STUDIO.
Dont get me wrong i am a fan of Pete Townsend, but Jimmy Page is just a guitar god.
Pete Townsend's name dosent even deserve to be in the same sentence as Jimmy Page.

JImmy page sucks live... and i will never stop saying that. he is the best next to jimi hendrix and david gilmour.. but live damn he suckks listen to the solos
prisonplaneter 2 years ago
I have been defending Jimmy Page live for a long time now. He did not like to play the studio versions and he wanted to "feel" it or improvise during the concerts. He can be tight if he wants to (he was the best session musician in England before the joined theYardbirds). Plus I don't think people realize how much herion he was using during the time it's amazing he even made it to '79....the drug used to be nicknamed "Page". When your name is linked to a drug.........................

its not about if he plays the song like the studio version is how he plays it.. les pauls should not have that horrible tone..
he has never played descent live... sorry about the heroin who cares... many guitarrist are drunk and hi.. and they can play better..

Who's Next is consistently better songwriting from start to finish than the No Name album. In general his songs are wittier, more interesting, and more droll than those of that huge, disgusting object you compare him to.
12stringsforme 2 years ago
The Who was more repetitive, they belong to those bands that play a song note by note. And it's obvious that sometimes Plant's voice was destroyed, I mean thay performed almost every night and the gigs lasted like 3 hours.Disgusting!? So you are saying that Untitled is disgusting!? I would be more careful before choosing the adjectives to describe one of the best albums ever made, sir. I'm 16, do you have any problem with that?
HousesOfTheHolyV 2 years ago
Pete Townshend referred to LZ as that "huge, disgusting object". I think he meant the band's image and perhaps the Zep icon. I wasn't thinking of Untitled. Which, by golly, is one of my favourite discs. And so is Who's Next.
Sometimes I like one band better, sometimes the other. What I admire most in Zep was their firm control over their own product.
Please don't tell us any more personal data like your age.
12stringsforme 2 years ago
Zeppelin had a wider variety of songs and covered many genres. Zeppelin repetitive?? You have to start listening more bootlegs. Daltrey better than Plant? If I were you I would get a new pair of ears. Finally, if you think Townshend wrote better songs, COULD YOU PLEASE FUCK OFF, GO TO LISTEN TO THE WHO AND LET US LISTEN TO THE GODS OF ROCK!
HousesOfTheHolyV 2 years ago
Excitable little chap aren't you?
I said Zep *sometimes was repetitious. Good concert example: Trampled Underfoot.
The accelerando section of Stairway would have sounded better with Moon on drums.
Sometime in 1972 Plant's voice was destroyed. After that he could no longer go higher than A, yet they insisted on opening every concert with Rock 'n Roll. The cracking voice on the first verse would be forever painful "Been a long t *& me" OUCH!!! Check the bootlegs if you don't believe me.

You try playing this song when stoned and exhausted. This was the end of their set and Jimmy was high as a kite the whole time. Plant's vocal chord operation never helped at all either. Give them a break.
