I love jimmy page he always stands out!!!

[buckleyboy666]

I love the way Jimmy Page just stumbles around on the stage, im not even sure he is playing anything at all. I think he was in the grip of drug addiction here. But still he like Clapton and Beck have changed the way people look at and play the guitar forever :)

It is a very radical.

The guys are very goods,

Eric Clapton is a very god of the guitar.

It is ROCK.

Amazing moments...

@connberkshire Awww man, that's awesome. I live in the area and used to go to the Cow Palace all the time, and every time I walk in there I can't help but think of all the awesome concerts that happened there. Allman Brothers also had a NYE show there. I was born in the wrong decade! Would've been great to see Page.

@gnrledzep4eva Yes he was- he played a set with Andy Fairweather-Low, Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts, with Clapton and Beck for a couple Yardbirds tunes, and an instrumental version of Stairway To Heaven. It's hard to believe it's been almost 30 years ago...

I missed out on my only chance to see The Grateful Dead's New Year Show *in* San Francisco that year, but I think it was a pretty good tradeoff...

@connberkshire Was Page at the SF show?

[pihlapori]

Varmaan Jimmy Pagella oli pissahätä ja piti odottaa konsertin loppua. Eikä Ray Cooperilla, gonginlyöjällä ollut kuulosuojaimia. Mutta maailman paras juttu koko pläjäys. Ikimuistettava.

I wish they would re-mix this brilliant concert for blu ray...the sound and picture quality is dreadful...

[Matthew9444]

@bluorangefyre You are mistaken.

I was fortunate enough to attend the San Francisco ARMS concert at the Cow Palace in December '83, and it is still IMO the best concert experience I've had in almost 40 years of Concerts- Thanks so much for posting this gem!
