Favorite Zep tune. but this version kinda sucks. Guitar sounds out of tune, keys come in kinda scetchy. Not very well mixed. The version from Song Remains is a much smother take in my opinion.

@bohs1984 because this is a bootleg AND because in 1973 they played much better than this ;)

Not a beat missed, on point, professional. Just ripe for disaster with Bonzo's ever more erratic behavior. These guys are amazing. Magic.

These guys where at their peak at this moment. Bonzo was soon dead, and the dream was broken. "Into every life a little rain must fall".

@bohs1984 Everything from Song Remains the Same was heavily overdubbed. that is why is sounds so good. this here is actually probably pretty accurate as to how it was played live.

this song live is better than most sex.

@JohnAllanification What's the point of saying that Jimmy Page was a kick ass guitarist, we all know he was. It's not news to anyone. Actually dude, whatever generation you are in, I don't know, nor do I give a fuck. However, most young people who just got into Zep have no clue about Jimmy's previous issue or anyone elses for that matter.

@bohs1984 Yes this gig was a tragedy - i know because i was there at Knebworth - The last ever gig in England from John Bonham before he died. and Jimmy Page at the time was totally off his face on heroin - absolute tragedy really - check out the London O2 gig - now that is reaaaaalllllly goood

@RealityPoint

what's the point of saying that Jimmy Page had a problem w/heroin ? we all know that he had the habit - this isn't new's anymore. mmm .. love my hand on my dick,i'll give you that one for sure.

@JohnAllanification Jeeez, follow the discussion you idiot, so we don't have to say the same thing about you asshole. Might want to take your hand off your dick too when you type, maybe you can spell.

@bohs1984..... yeah, i agree with you. but it's not Jimmy who's out of tune. it's you that needs tuning. have your ears checked a.s.a.p.  wahahahaha!
