  • ty so much for the upload, and in my mind, NOTHING says rock and roll like the still form of Page thats shown thru this song............. i guess im a bit biased, but i dont know how you beat Zeppelin in any category, but thats just me, thanks again for this rare upload!!

  • Four wizards at work. Bonham drops the hammer at the end. Awesome version!

  • Come to me for service every 100 miles, baby let me check your points fix your overdrive!

    Trouble free transmission helps your oils flow, mama let me pump your gas, mama let me do it all!

  • PUSH!...I can't stop listening to this. love

  • @TMNigel CANT STOP LISTENING?!!!! I CANT STOP MOVING MY ASS LOL

  • @Phenomenon58 Yeah...PUSH!

  • @TMNigel Or should I say POISH!!!

  • @TMNigel LOL yeh, i think Jonesy makes this song, but dont forget Bonham, wtf am i talking about they all groovin. Robert plants vocals, jimmys guitar, bonham drums and jonesy just tearing it up in the solo.

  • When your wheel's sinking low and you need sonic burning electric joy juice this is it. The mighty Led Zeppelin unadorned, raw, naked, seething, exhilerating...life itself! I like a great sounding Zep bootleg in the morning and the comments on this one have been the most fun so far

  • Much, much better than 1977 and Knebworth. Somebody must have sat down and had a serious talk with Page.

  • Very interesting version. Percy with the vocal effect and Bonzo playing it tight and straight-up, almost flat, then late-on taking it up a notch. Yeah, they were still very much on it. Nice to hear.

  • ho visto questo bellissimo concerto in compagnia di altri 8 amici Zurigo 1980 ...INDIMENTICABILE......VERY GOOD!!!!! Peccato dopo 3 mesi la morte del batterista Bonham.

  • anyone know if Page kicked his drug habit when this was recorded? his playing on the 77 tour was brutal and wasn't much better in Knebworth, he seems to be cooking in this track

  • @johpor59 im not a zeppelin guru but i think that page was pretty strung out from 77 era to the end of the firm era so yes

  • @johpor59

    I read Page got worse after Bonham died. He went down hill after 75. I think it was really the early-mid 80s when he came out of it. But he does sound great on this.

  • @capetown99 very true, Page was in an awful state right after Bonzo passed. There was a point where he hadn't played guitar for weeks, maybe months and suddenly he got the craziest urge to find it but couldn't and when he finally did he realized that if he hadn't found it he may not be alive today.

  • @GranDrJ

    I think Zeppelin should have had a far longer break after 1977. John was drinking more and Page was messing with shit. Robert losing his son. 75/77 Tours had exhausted them. I think big tours like the U.S. hurt John Bonham a lot being away from his family.

    Maybe they should have come back in 1981 or 82 rather than 79.

  • Van Halen, Who, Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, U2, the best you could ever be is the 2nd greatest rock band. This sound is just a clinic on how to rock out live, can't be beat.

  • This is absolutely astounding! JPJ getting down on the keyboards, dear lord. Please someone tell me if there is anyone out there that can approach this level of live performance today.

  • @plantationful No one can! The other bands all try to play it safe...Jimmy's the most exciting ever and Zep, who can follow them ?

  • @TMNigel You are absolutely correct. What made Zep the greatest is they were so innovative and covered so many genres from Kashmir to Achilles to Battle of Evermore and Levee. Google the alternative version to Levee. Will blow you away! Also check out alternative to In My Time. Incredible how they put tunes together. When Giants Walked The Earth, Hammer Of The Gods 2 great ways to remember them!

  • Not to rub it in your noses. I saw them twice in Germany in 1980, when I was stationed there. 1st was the infamous Nuremburg show when Bonzo simply passed out after about three songs, During "Black Dog" you could see Bonzo was out of itI think. It was general admission and the venue was really small, about 2 or 3000 capacity. I got there early and was front and center. 2nd time was in Munich at the Olympic Arena. Best show I've ever seen! Scaled down, no big lite show. Old tunes. What a blast!

  • @jimistreets1

    rub-away,fellah (as)not enought is known abt the band at this stage.

    ... was Jimmy,ok ?

  • @JohnAllanification In my opinion, he was not in good shape. Really thin. His solos just didn't flow like they had before. Again, in my opinion, Jimmy's playing took a dive that began around this time. However, I still thought they were fantastic! I loved their setlist, which included oldies from the early Zep and Yardbirds days. I loved the stripped-down stage show. Believe it or not, John Paul Jones was active onstage during these shows. Coming out to the front and really busy with his playing

  • Comment removed

  • ,,Jimmy's guitar work on this particular song was good and creative during the performance, I think he was on top of it pretty much during it's lifespan unlike "In The Evening" the year before on tour.

  • @jimistreets1 Your extremely lucky to have seen them at Munich. From what I've heard that is the best concert of the 1980 tour.

  • @Stratocaster21st1994 Not to brag, but I really am! Too many times I didn't go see people that I had a chance too, only to have them die, break-up or whatever. Hendrix (yes, I'm that old!), SRV, George Harrison. Fortunately, before they died I DID see, Muddy Waters, Albert King, Bobby Blue Bland, Rory Gallagher, Freddie King. Yup! I'm a blues man!

  • This is a very good sounding bootleg. Wish I could have seen this live with the added 3 minutes to the song with Page's guitar. Really jams and is charged up. JPJ

    gets his keyboards. Person below is probably right: lucky Europe got to see them in 1980, but for the US the last of them was in 1977. If Bonham didn't die and they came back to the US it would have been a great tour. ):

  • I wanna travel back in time ...

  • Who is the keyboardist? He's great too. I never hear anybody mention him.

  • @9KPhalak John Paul Jones

  • @ghost20063 Thanks. He adds a lot to this song.

  • @9KPhalak He's also their bass player.  He doesn't play bass live on this song, he just plays keyboards.

  • @thespainisharmada JPJ is playing bass with a foot pedal in this song.

  • @9KPhalak lmao do your homework...all hail the mighty zeppelin!!!

  • ...Cat. u know what im talking bout

  • Amazing! what CD is this from so I can buy it?

  • @facespaz hahahaha

  • @facespaz its a bootleg (not official)

  • nice

  • questioning if Zeppelin would have been popular in the 80s, 90s, 2000's to now is silly because Zeppelin continues to be competitive and dominates today. They still are played on radio as much as ever, they still sell back catalogue as much or more than anyone and if the release a reissue or new old stuff it instantly is hot! I wish Zep had been able to continue because they changed music and made it all better and maybe we would have avoided, hair bands, rap and American Idol and Bieber becau

  • Thanks for posting, awesome stuff!

  • this truly is an inspired version. page had dumped heroin and instead of some of the slop-ridden cliches he'd painted himself into - some of this SOME of his parts are incredibly fresh, well-played and well, virtuosic. Plant is in very good voice, Jones is just incredible and Bonham is tight as hell. Had they stayed sober this would have been a hell of a tour. and what irony - 1980, when even i had written them off as has-beens.

  • Nasty, Funky Riffs by Page & Co.

  • Shit Hello......

    I have a copy of this show on cd.

    I paid $125.00 for it. It is blue and is called "The Knobs"

    This is the best version of Trampled Underfoot I have ever heard.

    Pure Rock N Roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This certainly is a great performance. Its so disappointing that I will never lived in the time of John Bonham because he is the inspiration behind my drumming.

  • john bonham dies less than 3 months later :(

  • Very cool! Sounds awesome .............

  • they were right to kill zeppelin after bonham died. its not zeppelin without him. they were too good as a whole, the total was greater than the sum of its parts. who else can you say that about?

  • Comment removed

  • best version of the song

  • l'immagine è bellisima e anche l'audio l'immagine è di zurigo 1980

  • At last a live recording on Youtube that does them justice.

  • @herbal1971 Your absolutely right!

  • One of their best live songs in my opinion. Especially in 1980! Page's playing on this song is usually incredible. The only "bad" versions I've heard of this song were the two nights at Knebworth but even then I love those versions. They were just getting back into the game at Knebworth after not playing for 2 years. I really do believe Page was drunk at those shows too. In 80, they were fuckin' tight most of the time. That last show, the STH solo, Page sounded WAY blitzed but it was their last.

  • @LedWilde Buddy on the SWTH solo on their last show (have the boot) page WAS blized sorry for spelling man i am lol

  • @Seanwashere6 That's alright. I was probably blitzed too when I left that comment. lol I heard the SWTH solo on their last show, he had to be f'd up. Longest SWTH solo I've ever heard too I belive. Rather hear Page's last SWTH solo than to hear some guy at a guitar shop playing rehearsed, phrygian mode, hair metal stuff though.

  • Cant imagine zep in the 80's? are u fuckin high?Plants voice evolved into an even greater sound(Heaven Knows,Calling to you,Burning down one side)???Your an idiot if you think they wouldn't be anything but fantastic.They would sell out stadiums day in day out.Jonsey is a composer to the enth degree and Page is a God.Bonham wouldve been fine if not for his alcoholism.Zep is by far the greatest band to ever grace us with their sound.

  • @Louisvillebilly ummm if you listen to the long beach bootleg of dazed and confused in 1975 in the beginning you hear plant say "we knew after we composed this song that we would be together until the great big finale of the bright light" by 1980 i think they were postive about moving forward and gettting back into harder things but if you do some research youll find they were all worn by then ,and by 80 it was almost like zeppelin was a pastime............sorry if i offended you with my comment

  • @LedZeppelinHD Not offended just confused by your statement?? I love the line that u mentioned after Dazed and Cofused,lol.Hell Plant was high,who knows what the hell he meant by that?I think Plants voice got a lot more refined(less raspy blues)and his music was great,his solo stuff holds it own and his lyrics didn't skip a beat IMO.As far as Page running out of riffs??I honestly laughed on that one.C'mon really?I just saw JPJ with the Vultures in Seattle and he stole the show!!

  • damn groovy

  • i dont think people realize they wouldnt be as triumphant as everyone thinks,plants voice was horribly low by this time and had harmonizers everywhere and over echo,jimmy was running out of riffs,bonham was the size of a whale and jonesey was jonesey ahahahaahah,i cant imagine zep in the 80s,totally 70s band,theyll live forever,they didnt need the 80s,but damn the 80s needed them.

  • @LedZeppelinHD Harsh truth, I'm afraid. I hate that Zeppelin died the way they did but, as one magazine reporter once wrote a little later in the 80's: "It was better that Zeppelin were dead than under the thumb of bands like Duran Duran."

  • @lucifer73 i agree and am glad you saw my point of view ,people get so defensive!

  • Puta que pariu, essa banda se ainda estivesse em atividade, estaria ensinando essa molecada à tocar ROCK.

  • This band had played around 600 gigs in the US by that time. Live electronic capture of the concert sound in '80 was excellent. Cool!

  • This is good, but Frankfurt is the best version on the 80' tour. If you like this, you'll love that. Thanks for the upload boonyan18.

  • Wow! This is probably the best version I've heard of this song. Bonzo's driving beat and Jimmy actually nailing all the fills, with a cohierant solo to boot. Much better than any 77 and 79 version I have heard.  Good to know they still had it when Jimmy wasn't falling on the floor.

  • i think the were just getting better.

  • Yes this is an Over all good tour for the Mighty Zeppelin. I do think if they did anouther American Tour in 1980-81 it would have been strip down in your face led zeppelin, No light shows no 20 min drum solos, or guiter...it would have been clean mean and hard.

  • Very good version!

  • This is very good. If Bonham had lived, I believe that Led Zeppelin were onto a stellar tour...

  • @F1god04 if Bonham had lived, all wars would have ended

  • 1977 in America probably wasn't their best overall. But overall in 1980 they sounded fucking great! Too bad they couldn't continue. If they got to tour America one last time they probably would even be more legendary here in America than they are already. If you can even imagine that!

  • kick ass.

  • This is cool. Wish the guitar was louder though. But awesome indeed.

  • My ring tone on mob....eva listenened to the lyrics ;) R?

  • Mi canción favorita de Led Zeppelin, es una joya!!!

  • Very good.

  • it's unbelievable these guys really had their shit together here, damn!!

  • good improvised solo

  • Comment removed

  • Amazing--anything from the final tour..THANKS ! Great sound...JPL Jones so underated as a keyboardist, songwriter and bass player..>Thank god he, Page, and Plant and Bonzo Jr. still around ! The original Zep was only equaled by the Who, Rush, Beatles and UFO...and maybe Skynrd...Shows the range of Zep that they could pull off organ based blues boogie woogie funk...

  • ammmmmazing

    :B

  • omg jpj of the keyboard = amazing

  • I find it hard to believe Page is more on form than in '77!

  • I think he cleaned up a bit by '80. He was really hard and heavy into by heroin by '77.

    They sounded really sharp in those last concerts in '79-80. Then Bonzo dies,what a waste.

  • Yeah, at Knebworth Page was jonesing. Here he was back to the game.

  • jonesing? what do you mean

    ?

  • "Jonesing" is slang.

  • wow ya hear that lil f-up? nice save!! Zep is the best!

  • good sound..

  • Best "Jimmy" version I've ever heard yet. Solo Tops!

  • めっちゃ音ええっす。

    二枚組のアルバムまだ残ってるなあ。

  • Good that JPJ's keyboard was nice a high in this mix, other bootlegs ive heard its far too quiet :(

  • no kidding

  • best version I have yet heard methinks.Great!

  • no thank you

  • why damn those all concerts are not on DVD??!!

  • I'm sure they'll "discover" some footage within the next five years. Mark my words...last big money maker. Bonzo's last ride on the Zepp

  • that's awesome! ;D

  • Got this concert on bootleg but forgot how good it was. Thanks for reminding me. X

  • Wonderful performance!!!!

  • This kicks ass!!! This song has always reminded me of my Dad in his old early 70's pontiac bonneville. Thx so much for sharing, great live performance of course.

  • perfect...

    led zepp rules

  • あれれおかしいな、

    B'zのBAD COMMUNICATIONを歌いたくなってきたぞ

  • B'zのパクリ元がコレか

  • this sounds really great!! please keep posting!!!!

  • B'z BAD COMMUNICATION

  • After all these years, listening to Bonham still gives Me chills.....He was brilliant. I think this performance is better than Earl's Court 1975.

  • This is really good quality. It's actually listenable! Please post more.

  • Thank you for the comment. Besides, though live of the '80 of "Heartbreaker" and "Achilles Last Stand" is contributed to my channel besides this?

  • I've been to that show-my first ever.Lucky bastard...

  • i think that was there 2nd to last show

  • Bonzo's last gig was on August 7th. Since this is on June 29th I think they would've played a few more shows in between.

  • last gig was july 7 actually

  • a bit more polished and flashy than the gritty funk-rock assault of the studio version. this song was always great live.
