This is quite possibly the best Zeppelin gig ever! The set has a bit of new material for the as-of-yet-unrecorded Houses Of The Holy album, as well as killer playing from everyone. Over The Hills And Far Away was well introduced by Plant: "We'd like to try a number off the new album. We haven't really decided what we're gonna do at the end of it yet, so you'll have to bear with us! This is a thing called Over The Hills And Far Away, which is always a good place to be." Robert's voice is in incredible shape, Jimmy plays brilliantly, especially on Since I've Been Loving You, and this whole show is just great. Dancing Days was another triumph and Plant told the audience about the new album that it "is not gonna be called Led Zeppelin Five, it's got every possibility of being called Burn That Candle." 25 minutes of Whole Lotta Love bring down the house, followed by seven encores! After Rock And Roll Plant told to someone who have been fighting: "Hey, big man, cool it! Let me tell you something. Before there's any blows start. You start blowing blows and we'll go, right? And let me tell you something else - it's no good antagonising them either. If everybody keeps cool, we can stay here all night!" and an excitement crows roared. Even more, after Thank You Plant added: "You don't even give us a chance to have a cigarette, do ya? I was thinking of the other variety actually."

Could you upload Tangerine from this show?? I've never heard it before and am curious why Page left it off of the official release. Thanks.

It's up now for you

When did Rock get "smaller"? Not just Zepplin, but all bands back then were bigger than life. Stadiums filled with 85K+ people for weeks on end. And they looked bigger, played bigger, and just basically "lived" bigger. Now all we got pretty boy "pop stars" doing mall gigs for tween girls. WTF, bring the real rock back. The rock of Immigrant Song, the rock of Black Dog, the rock that millions of people, old & young, even decades later still acknowledge as epic. The rock that MEANT something.

Your examples are consistent. They are consistently NOT examples of rhythm guitar playing. End of story.

[AZEIDJSKSQMM]

@67goldtops I was wrong, I thought to another, sorry, but my examples are consistent.

@AZEIDJSKSQMM

That Blackmore has good timing and phrasing (choice of notes & rhythm in which they're played) does NOT mean he's a good rhythm player. He's not. He doesn't play CHORDS. Would you like some specific examples guitar driven songs that feature solid rhythm playing? Joe Walsh on "Funk 49." Keith RIchards on "Can't You Hear Me Knocking." SRV on "Couldn't Stand the Weather." Townshend on "Young Man Blues." ANYTHING by Chuck Berry...THOSE are RHYTHM guitar songs. LAZY is not. Understand?

[67goldtops]

@AZEIDJSKSQMM

Man, you just don't have a fucking clue. "LAZY" is a great rhythm guitar song? REALLY?? You clearly have no idea that there are SOLOS, where a player plays individual notes on individual strings. There are also CHORDS, in which the player fingers the chord shape and then STRUMS. Get it yet? "LAZY" is a GUITAR SOLO, inspired by Eric Clapton's "Stepping Out," which is also a guitar SOLO that Clapton recorded w/ John Mayall's Blues Breakers. Neither is an example of RHYTHM PLAYING.
