This is a monstrous show, with Robert's voice reaching unbelievable heights, as well as the band being unstoppable. Listen to Dazed And Confused and the Whole Lotta Love medley ... unreal stuff! Even Bonham's drum solo is thunderous and exciting.

(From those that were there)

I was very fortunate to have been at the Led Zeppelin performance on August 15, 1970 at the Yale Bowl in New Haven - and proceeded to put on one of the best rock shows I had ever witnessed. I was especially knocked out by "Heartbreaker" and "Moby Dick". This show is one of the most treasured memories of my youth - especially now being in my 50's and a grandfather. Both of my grown daughters (Zeppelin fans as well) are jealous that I was able to see them and they were not! If there is a reunion tour in the works, one way or another, I'll be there!

I was only 16 years old but had been to couple of concerts. I was a little bummed out when they first appeared I think it was Robert Plant moaning about how he hated New Haven. I remember there being a bit of a to do over how loud they could set their amps. The Yale bowl is situated in a in a residential area and the organizers had assure the community that they would keep it at reasonable level what ever that is. Anyway the band didn't like it and they let the crowd know it. Hell, we just wanted to hear them play. Well when they did it was amazing, unbelievable and incredible. If they had a problem with New Haven it didn't show up in the music. And I can't imagine anyone giving a better performance than John Bonham, he was incredible anyone that went to that concert unless they were totaly fried would have remembered Bonham. His hands must have been bleeding when that concerted ended.

This was the first rock concert I'd ever been to. Was 14. Remember visiting a friend in 69 and him putting on the first album. Blew my mind. Yale bowl was about two miles from where I grew up. Second record came out and the concert was announced. Got tickets.
They came on stage while still light. No opening act. Didn't recognize them. Plant had hair down to his belt and a pair of star painted boots. Jimmy had a beard. He picked up the guitar and they started 'The Immigrant Song."
Holy shit! My life changed. (not sure for the better but It's the only one I have) A most incredible experience.

I was at this concert at Yale Bowl, It was their first U.S. concert following the release of their third album. I will never forget the opening song, 'Immigrant Song'. It was the first time I'd heard it. Tremendous concert!
