I don’t mind people criticizing this band. They are still my ultimate favorite. Anyone that knows me became a fan because I have always listened to them whenever possible. Drives my wife crazy, but she kills Stairway when doing Karaoke.😂 This live version demonstrates that radical energy that they could replicate every time every single time. I was typing this as you (Phil) described it. Funny how we get it. 😊 Don’t you love that explosive sound Jimmy gets when he hits those strings?? So cool, so dope! It goes: SKRRRRAASHHH-Kaa-Raaang!! Kaa-Raang. Ka-ra, Ka-ra, Ka-ra-ka-raaang!!! That’s been my inspiration since I can remember That noise! It’s beautiful! It’s magic!
Great analysis... Plant is so strong on vocals that he is like an other played instrument. I’ve read that Plant’s singing voice was really really loud without a microphone. I think that allowed him to cut through the mix. I also loved when Plant and Page traded off solo lines or Plant would wail what Jimmy was playing... That was just such a devastating dynamic especially live.
@@wingsofpegasus nobody snaps their fingers like Plant with their palms in the air. Nobody twirls their hair with their index finger like Plant. Nobody wears little girls shirts like Plant or stomps their feet on stage like a little girl like Plant. Nobody humps the mic stamp and screams oooh baaaby, ooo baby ooooh like Plant does, to funny!😂
If you want to witness a badass frontman the last 60 years that acts like a man on stage, watch the vid, Queen With Tony Iommi And Roger Daltrey, singing, I Want It All. Then get back to me.
Very insightful analysis. I've been a Led Zeppelin fan since 1971. It never ceases to amaze me how we can continue to rediscover the musically amazing talent of this band from continually evolving perspectives.
jett peters OMG I don’t care if rush last 100 years! Rush’s only melodic album was the first one. They are nowhere in the class of Led Zeppelin. One time when I worked in a music store teaching music, I was in back with the other music teachers joking that I could write a Rush song. So I started slamming perfect fifths in the key of Am, and some people in the hall wall stuck their heads in the door and ask damn is that rush? Rush is a boring version of AC/DC! I’ll say this for Rush. I enjoy those classical intros their guitarist did. I can play everyone of them, like the intro for trouble in the forest. But once you get to the song it is horribly boring music! ¡Da da da DA-da don!

It's Been A Long Time... since anyone has seen this. Great live version of a song that's often been called the benchmark for what a "rock and roll" track should sound like.
One of my favorite bands of all time. Jimmy is genius & having him being one of my idols I was so lucky to meet him & Scarlett at her poetry reading & become friends. From Paris, to England to NY I've seen them. Jimmy is so laid back & cool. He's behind an exhibit here in NY called "Play it Loud" I hope it goes to England because I know you will love it! Thanks for this outstanding video! Can never get too much Zeppelin! 🤘🎵💫
Bonham and Jones got a lot of credit but not enough. Jones was pulled into so many directions with bass and keyboard that he in essence was the staple that kept the songs together. But like Elvis’ drummer once said, Elvis’ voice was so dramatic and had so much bravado that he was his own drum kit with his voice. Not quite true with plant but plant had that unique beautiful voice he could cover any mistakes with his voice. Very talented band for sure. Many will disagree I’m sure but top to bottom imo the best band ever. I never heard a zepp song where I said no way, turn that off. I’ve heard a few Elvis songs I did that to. And with the Beatles, with revolution #9 and a bunch of others that made me think, couldn’t they just do covers of Sesame Street to fill in voids. Uggh. Lol. They were great so a few songs here and there for fun was nothing to them.

My son listens to rap mostly, I introduced him to zep and now every time I go visit he plays me a new zep song on guitar. All these years later they are still winning fans with the music. Greatest band of all time. And just a side note you remind me of a young Paige!!!
@@afterburner2869 That was it. I was there Sunday night when their hotel was "robbed" ...at the show, not the robbery )0_o(. At least according to Peter Grant.

Wow Robert you were/are so fortunate. I've watched TSRTS probably 125 times. The 30 min long Dazed version. The legendary guitar and keyboard solos on NoQ... Probably their best ever live versions of Stairway, Black Dog and Whole Lotta Love. In recent years previously unreleased performances of Misty Mt Hop, Over the Hills, The Ocean. The scorching hot version of Since I've been loving you. All simply legendary stuff. I'm so jealous of you. But I was only 1 year old in 1973 so it just wasn't in the cards for me. Congrats on getting to witness the absolute pinnacle of live RNR music.
One of my favorite bands, they had it goin' on. Funny how the audience is so calm, little did they know they were watching & listening to history being made.
Once again, enjoyed the analysis greatly, thanks. I was at this show. Zeppelin were massive at the time, but the legend, the mystique, had not yet fully grown. The longer I live, the more I appreciate gigs like this, and how lucky I was to be around in that era. Like Joni said........"you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone". Peace.............
8:20 Page's ability to "write a hit" is what separates him from most of the other great guitarists. Beck, Blackmore, Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn were/are all amazing guitarists, but how many hits did they write? Sure, they had some hits, but most were written by someone else, and none can touch what Page with Zeppelin did.
It may indeed blow, in your view, but many of your rock idols idolize some of today's artists. Many big names who you no doubt love, love Lady Gaga, for example, and consider her to be among the tops of the tops. You might not. But they do. I remember the days when people hated the Beatles, saying no way can they be compared to Elvis. But Elvis liked them, as did lots of big stars who's fans didn't appreciate the Bs.
I was at this performance at the old Sydney Showground in 1972 as an 18 year old. First and best concert I have even attended. They were great and as Fil says, had all the energy and tone of their records.
Thanks fil. Love that you appreciate any style of music and can analyse and interpret it so well. You have turned me on to stuff I would never have come across. Cheers
I just LOVE your reactions and incisive commentary. And watching your face when you are enjoying a performance is a joy; you have an infectious smile. All strength to you! xxx
Spot on critique as usual.Covering all the aspects so well.Really is amazing how close it is to the studio version being live......and like you said ....with 3 players?!?!?Incredibly incredible.
Jimmy Page was the master of riff writing. Taking the whole lotta love riff for an example, there is a bend which takes that part of the riff to a discordant siren like tone which is total genius in my humble opinion. Without it the riff would not have its magic. There are other awesome things going on in the whole lotta love riff that are well worth exploring.
As far as being the master riff writer, I have to go with Keith Richards. I think Led Zep were great, but they could not have written Monkey Man or Midnight Rambler, to name a few. On the other hand, K.R. could not have written Fool In The Rain. It's a harsh world out there...
@@zanichbug ok so your a big stones fan, but you shouldn't lose the reality of music..Stones a very popular commercial blues based band, almost a pop band at times...KR riffs were all closely related and very simple...but catchy ..ar times...Keith Richard's is not known as a great writer of riffs, and could never be compared to Jimmy's.......btw Ronnie wood has always ben the best guitarist in the stones, since the death of Brian jones..😉
@@kensalazar5066 Not sure what you mean by "the reality of music" since I have a substantial vinyl collection of Bowie, Stones, Led Zep, Roxy, the Who, Hendrix...The Stones only had two guitarists after Jones died: Taylor, and Wood. In my own book: Taylor was a great fit as a guitarist, and Wood is a great fit as a Stone. One important bit, in my opinion, is that Taylor happened to be in the band during the prime writing years of M&K.
@@stephenzanichkowsky4434 sounds good, and I'm not trying to offend you or any other stones fans..theys bigger than most, and bigger than I'll ever be for sure....I just don't belive that the are talented musicians in the same realm as some of the other big bands of the day..they did however write some great songs, but the music is mostly simple...still song writing was their talent and they were good at it...the thing that I admire most about the stones is that they have endured, through everything and most don't, although most of their music is only known to die hard stones fans..and I guess at the end of the day....there's quite a few....no doubt...I'm just not one of them...I love there popular stuff....for sure early songs like under the thumb, sympathy...etc...
John Paul Jones was unappreciated in this band. He played keyboards Mandolin and bass! Seems like people aren't aware of this! Saw Zepplin 3 times! Always a great performance! Great review and analysis Fil! Thanks again.
One stand out is John Paul Jones 's solid bass playing you can hear his unmatched skill when he locks in with drummer John Bonham and carries his impeccable rythmn work most notably covering guitarist Jimmy Page 's lead solo when he covers the absence of rythmn guitar
Dude, you nailed it. Zep was essentially a power trio and the fact that page could pull off the depth of sound in both lead and rhythm was what marked then as the best live band ever.
Great analysis Fil. I've always been very impressed with how Page could break away from the rhythm and play leads, solos that were usually over dubs on the studio versions. I suppose Jimmy has Bonham and definitely JPJ to thank for filling in the gaps so well. Other bands like The Stones, Allmans, Skynyrd had both a rhythm and lead guitarist on stage. Jimmy Page carried the load very well. And with the heaviest band around in those days to boot.
Funny that all 3 of the biggest hard rock bands in the early 70’s were all single guitar. Deep Purple had Jon Lord often basically playing his fuzzed out organ as if it were a guitar, and even though Black Sabbath was by far the heaviest of those bands and by proxy probably the heaviest yet heard back then, but still just Tony Iommi. I think he used to compensate during his solos by hitting bass notes and low octaves to fill out the sound on stage.
That analysis was really good and I'm going to watch it a few more times, I agree it's a really good performance. You really brought to light the energy that this band puts out with just three musicians and one lead vocalist. I'm not a big Plant fan in terms of vocals, but I have to agree he really did this one well. You really have to have a lot of presence on stage when there's only a few of you, and Plant has that talent, he really owns the stage, it's not easy to do when the others are playing solos, you need to do something to keep the audience interested. Although when the camera panned the audience at one point, I thought they were all on valium. Also watched your Rory one that was good too. Keep up the good work!
Yeah, back when Jimmy was writing, the great guitar riffs were not all written. Now? You can't write a single note intro riff without someone going oh, that sounds like Zep or Van Halen or whoever. Page wrote a lot of hit riffs. Eddie V wrote a few himself. Wish they'd zoomed in a bit on Page in the solo but again.... we both know that the true cameraman's job is to film the singer during the guitar solo. :)
Yayyy! I WAS THERE! My 1st gig evvvah! Parts of the concert are on the Mothership DVD (remember those?), including the start - Immigrant Song. Still get goose bumps thinking about it now. I was 11 then. The ground SHOOK!
Brilliant video! Jimmy does an excellent job filling everything out on his own. It’s not easy to do. His left hand is cold and it’s bother him but he’s pulling it off. I used to keep my hands warm a par can. I bought a chunk of Zepps lighting rig and control gear many years ago. (I wish I still had it) I love this band. As a teenager I used to idolise Jimmy Page. I used to even look like him. Lol! Your videos are brilliant Fil! Thanks!
Fil, I dig your analysis. You're such a fan of music and its various genres and it comes through on your videos. Keep up the good work my friend. P.S. John Paul Jones was, in my opinion, the best musician in a band of 4 incredible musicians. Jimmy Page is the Riff Master General.
My first concert at 16 (1976) Zeppelin, Greensboro, NC. My favorite band of all time. The beginning of my love for concerts. Feel so fortunate to have been a part of 70’s music. Like no other.
Zep did a lot of great music and albums but this piece is by far my favorite because it's just had that raw edginess to it, that you never forget. Those guys have to be, at least in my mind, one of the top 3 greatest rock groups of all time. And quite arguably number one.
Wow, 1st seeing this video, incredible!! Led Zeppelin is one of the bands that you can take any track today, and it sounds so much better than when it first came out, they just put to shame any Rock today.
Bit late but a great live version by Zeppelin is Achilles last stand from the 79 knebworth gig, I was their and couldn't believe it when Page managed to play that on his own! I can't think of another guitar player who could have done it without backing tracks and/or another guitarist on stage as back up..
My mother barely tolerated Queen. I had to listen to led Zeppelin alone in the car driving in the country. Little did Mom know that one day led Zeppelin would be honored by President Obama at the Kennedy center honors.
Greatest rhythm section by a mile. I've never heard a live recording where Jones and Bonzo weren't sensational. I listen to some of that late 60s and early 70s live stuff, and there are so many moments that are just jaw-dropping. Plant and Bonzo in particular could put explosive energy into their performances. Around the mid 70s, Page started having sobriety issues and Plant's vocal chords were a bit worn. Still a great singer, just no longer the Viking Sex God vocals.
Awesome performance and review Fil. Saw them at Winterland, SF, promoting their 2nd album. Blown away when I heard Plant sing squeeze my lemon til the juice runs down my leg. WTF!
This video is SOOooo cool, the shows in '72 were relatively still "tame" in terms of audience behavior, band behavior, stage access to fans & just the no frills aspect of the stage setup. Your knowledge from the musician's viewpoint is astounding....I only saw LZ once but it was epic. As much as I love Plant's voice & ability, to this day he just can't dance w/ good timing. lol Jimmy Page, the consummate gentleman & fantastic guitar man.
This may be the greatest reaction I've ever witnessed .😊❤ The understanding. The articulation. The musical information. Incredible. And i loved that Zeppelin performance which i also had never seen.
Wow, that was great! Thanks Fil. I was able to see Zeppelin a few times, during their 1975 & 1977 USA tours. That era was filled with so many guitar-driven, super talented bands. I recall a show, at Long Island's (NY) Nassau Coliseum, where I saw Eric Clapton, Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin, all on the same bill! It was in 1975 I believe. The three guitarists came out and did a mammoth jam at the end of the show...phenomenal!!! And Zep were amazing. The 2/14/1975 show is still being talked about amongst Led Zep fans and tape collectors and I was there! I was just a kid and so lucky to have grown up during that era. Seeing the Mighty Zep that first time...still gives me chills thinking about it to this day. The house lights going down, the band coming onstage, hearing them tuning up...and then *WHAM* 3 hours of bliss...people going NUTS! What a great time. Thanks for reviewing this Fil. Love your videos. BTW how does someone submit a video to you for a possible analysis? Would love to see you do one on Roy Buchanan, but don't have the link handy. Thanks again. Rock N Roll!
Yeah, I think he got a bit of a reputation for sloppiness later on when he was having various problems. Some musicians seem to thrive under the influence of drugs/booze/whatever, but I feel Page only suffered really. Hard work mixed with hard living almost ruined his reputation as one of THE greatest guitar players of all time. But his legacy lives on for all to see and appreciate.
Jimmy got quite sloppy in the late 70's and 80's due to that heroin shit . But , that said , he was always into improvising his solos to make them new and different for us and him .
Yeah, he wasn’t sloppy in the early years of the band, but he was later in the decade. I saw Led Zeppelin in LA during their 1977 tour, and Page was definitely struggling at times with the more virtuosic passages. I’m glad I got to see them, though.
I can't be the only person who thinks you look like Page in his younger years. There ain't no WAY I'm the first to type that! Now that I've got that out of the way.....LOL Just found your channel and enjoying it. Thanks and cheers!
@@wingsofpegasus ruclips.net/video/9fQuVrLpDnQ/видео.html What happens when your a bad ass guitar player but cant sing for shit! Lol, I think it's part of the reason he jams with Dave Matthews (the other part being the paycheck! Lol) Let me know what you think bro! And tell me to f@#k off if I'm bothering you with all these Tim Reynolds videos, Lol! He's just such a great player still touring and so very underrated I wish you did a Tim video just to give him props he deserves! Thanks again my brother.... Mike.
@@gregormiller4037 To me, JMO, I was listening to Physical Graffiti on a portable turntable. I grew up with Zeppelin, Bad Co, Sabbath, Trower, and as much as I love James Dewar's voice I still think Plant is best. I love Jethro Tull also! Saw him/them at The Spectrum in Philly. ✌🏼🎶
Fil. you’ve hit my heart with this one. For me, this is the band that inspired my desire to be in a band!! Really appreciate it!! Kindest regards sir!!
Bonham really beats the hell out of the drums... Great drummer... John Paul's driving bass rhythm lead.. Jimmy was a studio musician everybody would use him on thier tracks... One of the greatest of all time.. He bought allister crawley castle.."demonic... Vocalizations amazing..Plants the man.. "72" we were drinking keggers hanging on the corner dancing in the Street to some of the best music ever made... One of the best band's of all time...
I think your analysis of live vs. record is very astute. One of the great things about Zeppelin was their ability to track most everything live, in studio. Then Page would go back and wing the leads on overdub (just a few times and pick the best), or Plant on the harmonies. Their live performances changed every show so they knew each other's rhythm pretty well. Especially.during these years.
Mentioned seeing LZ for my first concert, Kezar Houses which was amazing (look, they're controlling the weather!!) but Pagey in one tune, Since I've Been Loving You from III. Brought tears to my eyes when i was 13 in '70. Still great........Kills after all this time
Hi Fil, have you ever listened to the Page&Plant cd ( ? ) No Quarter? Saw them when they toured for that, what a wonderful concert! When they played at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee,I was sooo impressed with that concert,the next day had to buy the cd. A remake of some old songs with some new material with an Egyptian orchestra with the violins and the other instruments that would be found in same. And that was the most impressive thing to listen to the cd the next day! It was like being at the concert again, only I had to really turn it up at home cuz I'm was still kinda in the hard of hearing mode from the night before :) have a good 'un Fil ! Please give it a listen, just for yer'self !
I saw. P & P in Pittsburg. They were very good. I saw Plants Now and Zen tour. I was very close. He was fantastic. He did hey hey what can i do. Highlight for me.
These daylight shows with a big stage dwarfs the band. They look like a little four piece hippie band. But they play & it sounds larger than life. Like Zeus,Thor, Poseidon & Apollo are here & they wanna party with you! Thanks Fil I love Led Zeppelin🤘
All so you are right Jimmy is known for riffing but it is his rhythm playing that is the foundation of his greatness he really is a one man band producing writing playing a forward vision what he might lack in technique he more than makes up for it in the fact he wears so many hats been following him for 42 years and still love his style of course the other members of the band are very talented as well cheers
![Noob To Max With DRAGON REWORK In Blox Fruits [FULL MOVIE]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LnBMOinoOvA/mqdefault.jpg)
No huge stage set up, no over produced light show or musicians back stage filling in the sound. Just 4 guys on stage kicking ass!!!!!
I see a couple of Venn diagrams on the stage
JPJ is phenomenal as a bass player. Nothing falls through the cracks. Everyone has got a platform.
the amazing thing about Led Zeppelin was they were the best at every style. Acoustic, experimental, rock or blues they were the best in everything.
Absolutely agree
100% agree
Yup..what I ben sayin for years it is..
Another reason theys known worldwide as "The Mighty Led Zeppelin "
Your right Jimmy is a great rhythm player his cord structure people only think of his solos but it’s his rhythm playing that’s just as good.

I remember the days when people hated the Beatles, saying no way can they be compared to Elvis. But Elvis liked them, as did lots of big stars who's fans didn't appreciate the Bs.
Um, Whale !
I was at this performance at the old Sydney Showground in 1972 as an 18 year old. First and best concert I have even attended. They were great and as Fil says, had all the energy and tone of their records.
Cool!
I was there too - loved it.
Thanks fil. Love that you appreciate any style of music and can analyse and interpret it so well. You have turned me on to stuff I would never have come across. Cheers
👍☺
Fil, this has to be your ultimate favorite band!!!!
Great to hear a young healthy plant. 71-72 was his peak when it comes to sounding like the LP or the “Led Zeppelin” voice
I just LOVE your reactions and incisive commentary. And watching your face when you are enjoying a performance is a joy; you have an infectious smile. All strength to you! xxx
Thanks James!
What great vocals!
👍
Spot on critique as usual.Covering all the aspects so well.Really is amazing how close it is to the studio version being live......and like you said ....with 3 players?!?!?Incredibly incredible.
👍
Page is Rock´n´Roll in this ... seldom have I seen him this spontaneous and just raving !
Jimmy Page was the master of riff writing. Taking the whole lotta love riff for an example, there is a bend which takes that part of the riff to a discordant siren like tone which is total genius in my humble opinion. Without it the riff would not have its magic. There are other awesome things going on in the whole lotta love riff that are well worth exploring.
I agree. He pulls that drone lick on the Four Sticks rhythm too. One of his many killer tricks
As far as being the master riff writer, I have to go with Keith Richards. I think Led Zep were great, but they could not have written Monkey Man or Midnight Rambler, to name a few. On the other hand, K.R. could not have written Fool In The Rain. It's a harsh world out there...
@@zanichbug ok so your a big stones fan, but you shouldn't lose the reality of music..Stones a very popular commercial blues based band, almost a pop band at times...KR riffs were all closely related and very simple...but catchy ..ar times...Keith Richard's is not known as a great writer of riffs, and could never be compared to Jimmy's.......btw Ronnie wood has always ben the best guitarist in the stones, since the death of Brian jones..😉
@@kensalazar5066 Not sure what you mean by "the reality of music" since I have a substantial vinyl collection of Bowie, Stones, Led Zep, Roxy, the Who, Hendrix...The Stones only had two guitarists after Jones died: Taylor, and Wood. In my own book: Taylor was a great fit as a guitarist, and Wood is a great fit as a Stone. One important bit, in my opinion, is that Taylor happened to be in the band during the prime writing years of M&K.
@@stephenzanichkowsky4434 sounds good, and I'm not trying to offend you or any other stones fans..theys bigger than most, and bigger than I'll ever be for sure....I just don't belive that the are talented musicians in the same realm as some of the other big bands of the day..they did however write some great songs, but the music is mostly simple...still song writing was their talent and they were good at it...the thing that I admire most about the stones is that they have endured, through everything and most don't, although most of their music is only known to die hard stones fans..and I guess at the end of the day....there's quite a few....no doubt...I'm just not one of them...I love there popular stuff....for sure early songs like under the thumb, sympathy...etc...
I saw them at Earls court 1975 - when I got home my mates asked how they sounded - my words at the time 'like the record on a massive record player' .
John Paul Jones was unappreciated in this band. He played keyboards Mandolin and bass! Seems like people aren't aware of this! Saw Zepplin 3 times! Always a great performance! Great review and analysis Fil! Thanks again.
We all love and appreciate him ❤️
One stand out is John Paul Jones 's solid bass playing you can hear his unmatched skill when he locks in with drummer John Bonham and carries his impeccable rythmn work most notably covering guitarist Jimmy Page 's lead solo when he covers the absence of rythmn guitar
Jonesy ❤️
Dude, you nailed it. Zep was essentially a power trio and the fact that page could pull off the depth of sound in both lead and rhythm was what marked then as the best live band ever.
Thanks!
Great analysis Fil. I've always been very impressed with how Page could break away from the rhythm and play leads, solos that were usually over dubs on the studio versions. I suppose Jimmy has Bonham and definitely JPJ to thank for filling in the gaps so well. Other bands like The Stones, Allmans, Skynyrd had both a rhythm and lead guitarist on stage. Jimmy Page carried the load very well. And with the heaviest band around in those days to boot.
👍
Funny that all 3 of the biggest hard rock bands in the early 70’s were all single guitar. Deep Purple had Jon Lord often basically playing his fuzzed out organ as if it were a guitar, and even though Black Sabbath was by far the heaviest of those bands and by proxy probably the heaviest yet heard back then, but still just Tony Iommi. I think he used to compensate during his solos by hitting bass notes and low octaves to fill out the sound on stage.
What a grand performance! Truly one of the great bands of all times!
👍
That analysis was really good and I'm going to watch it a few more times, I agree it's a really good performance. You really brought to light the energy that this band puts out with just three musicians and one lead vocalist. I'm not a big Plant fan in terms of vocals, but I have to agree he really did this one well. You really have to have a lot of presence on stage when there's only a few of you, and Plant has that talent, he really owns the stage, it's not easy to do when the others are playing solos, you need to do something to keep the audience interested. Although when the camera panned the audience at one point, I thought they were all on valium. Also watched your Rory one that was good too. Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
Anytime I can see John Boham live is special to me, none better. Thx Fil.
Amen.
Yeah, back when Jimmy was writing, the great guitar riffs were not all written. Now? You can't write a single note intro riff without someone going oh, that sounds like Zep or Van Halen or whoever.
Page wrote a lot of hit riffs. Eddie V wrote a few himself. Wish they'd zoomed in a bit on Page in the solo but again.... we both know that the true cameraman's job is to film the singer during the guitar solo. :)
👍
Yayyy! I WAS THERE! My 1st gig evvvah!
Parts of the concert are on the Mothership DVD (remember those?), including the start - Immigrant Song. Still get goose bumps thinking about it now.
I was 11 then. The ground SHOOK!
Brilliant video! Jimmy does an excellent job filling everything out on his own. It’s not easy to do. His left hand is cold and it’s bother him but he’s pulling it off. I used to keep my hands warm a par can. I bought a chunk of Zepps lighting rig and control gear many years ago. (I wish I still had it) I love this band. As a teenager I used to idolise Jimmy Page. I used to even look like him. Lol! Your videos are brilliant Fil! Thanks!
Thanks!
Another great job Fil...keep up the good work🎸
Fil, I dig your analysis. You're such a fan of music and its various genres and it comes through on your videos. Keep up the good work my friend.
P.S. John Paul Jones was, in my opinion, the best musician in a band of 4 incredible musicians. Jimmy Page is the Riff Master General.
Thanks!
My first concert at 16 (1976) Zeppelin, Greensboro, NC. My favorite band of all time. The beginning of my love for concerts. Feel so fortunate to have been a part of 70’s music. Like no other.
The greatest band EVER! My favorite.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Zep did a lot of great music and albums but this piece is by far my favorite because it's just had that raw edginess to it, that you never forget. Those guys have to be, at least in my mind, one of the top 3 greatest rock groups of all time. And quite arguably number one.
👍
Wow, 1st seeing this video, incredible!! Led Zeppelin is one of the bands that you can take any track today, and it sounds so much better than when it first came out, they just put to shame any Rock today.
👍
Bit late but a great live version by Zeppelin is Achilles last stand from the 79 knebworth gig, I was their and couldn't believe it when Page managed to play that on his own! I can't think of another guitar player who could have done it without backing tracks and/or another guitarist on stage as back up..
That is one of my favorite performance to look at him there ; he didn't look very healthy but damn he was great.
My mother barely tolerated Queen. I had to listen to led Zeppelin alone in the car driving in the country. Little did Mom know that one day led Zeppelin would be honored by President Obama at the Kennedy center honors.
Great review Fil. All this before super sound systems and massive light shows.
Been missing my Wings of Pegasus. Broke my device. It's been along time..... Zepplin blew me away as a teenager and still does
👍
my fav parts of jimmy's solo's are the flat tires . So much feel even blowing a note . LOVE
👍
Greatest rhythm section by a mile. I've never heard a live recording where Jones and Bonzo weren't sensational. I listen to some of that late 60s and early 70s live stuff, and there are so many moments that are just jaw-dropping. Plant and Bonzo in particular could put explosive energy into their performances. Around the mid 70s, Page started having sobriety issues and Plant's vocal chords were a bit worn. Still a great singer, just no longer the Viking Sex God vocals.
Awesome performance and review Fil. Saw them at Winterland, SF, promoting their 2nd album. Blown away when I heard Plant sing squeeze my lemon til the juice runs down my leg. WTF!
Hell yeah,classic Zeppelin
👍
This video is SOOooo cool, the shows in '72 were relatively still "tame" in terms of audience behavior, band behavior, stage access to fans & just the no frills aspect of the stage setup.
Your knowledge from the musician's viewpoint is astounding....I only saw LZ once but it was epic. As much as I love Plant's voice & ability, to this day he just can't dance w/ good timing. lol Jimmy Page, the consummate gentleman & fantastic guitar man.
I attended 2 live Led Zeppelin performances in the 70s.
They were a great band because each member was
great and their chemistry was infectious.
Hi Fil, your fascinatin for music was catching me from the first minute. I learn so much about the bands, that's amazing, also in Corona times!
Jimmy Page!!!
This may be the greatest reaction I've ever witnessed .😊❤ The understanding. The articulation. The musical information. Incredible. And i loved that Zeppelin performance which i also had never seen.
I’ve always wondered where this was from. I’ve seen brief clips used before but never the whole video.
Such a simple stage.
👍
Wow, that was great! Thanks Fil. I was able to see Zeppelin a few times, during their 1975 & 1977 USA tours. That era was filled with so many guitar-driven, super talented bands. I recall a show, at Long Island's (NY) Nassau Coliseum, where I saw Eric Clapton, Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin, all on the same bill! It was in 1975 I believe. The three guitarists came out and did a mammoth jam at the end of the show...phenomenal!!! And Zep were amazing. The 2/14/1975 show is still being talked about amongst Led Zep fans and tape collectors and I was there! I was just a kid and so lucky to have grown up during that era. Seeing the Mighty Zep that first time...still gives me chills thinking about it to this day. The house lights going down, the band coming onstage, hearing them tuning up...and then *WHAM* 3 hours of bliss...people going NUTS! What a great time. Thanks for reviewing this Fil. Love your videos. BTW how does someone submit a video to you for a possible analysis? Would love to see you do one on Roy Buchanan, but don't have the link handy. Thanks again. Rock N Roll!
Cool! Roy is here somewhere, but if you just write what the video is called I'll find it!
@@wingsofpegasus I found the link....here it is, Green Onion, live, from 1985.

I have heard a lot of people call Page sloppy. I don't think they could really hear what he is doing.
Absolutely. I still find things buried in their music that I had missed for years. Amazing!
Yeah, I think he got a bit of a reputation for sloppiness later on when he was having various problems. Some musicians seem to thrive under the influence of drugs/booze/whatever, but I feel Page only suffered really. Hard work mixed with hard living almost ruined his reputation as one of THE greatest guitar players of all time. But his legacy lives on for all to see and appreciate.
Jimmy got quite sloppy in the late 70's and 80's due to that heroin shit . But , that said , he was always into improvising his solos to make them new and different for us and him .
Yeah it's always a discussion but certainly the substances had a negative affect.
Yeah, he wasn’t sloppy in the early years of the band, but he was later in the decade. I saw Led Zeppelin in LA during their 1977 tour, and Page was definitely struggling at times with the more virtuosic passages. I’m glad I got to see them, though.
Oh yeah, they absolutely definitely connect!! Pure magic!
I can't be the only person who thinks you look like Page in his younger years. There ain't no WAY I'm the first to type that!
Now that I've got that out of the way.....LOL Just found your channel and enjoying it. Thanks and cheers!
Love the way that you get into songs and how you explain what's going on.Rock
Thanks Jim!
The whole is greater than the sum of its parts....apparently Aristotle envisioned LZ! 🤘
😂👍
And certainly The Beatles, as well!
Fil, I love watching your enjoyment ! Makes me smile.
Amazing! The mighty Led Zep, Excellent video bro!!!
☺👍
@@wingsofpegasus ruclips.net/video/9fQuVrLpDnQ/видео.html What happens when your a bad ass guitar player but cant sing for shit! Lol, I think it's part of the reason he jams with Dave Matthews (the other part being the paycheck! Lol) Let me know what you think bro! And tell me to f@#k off if I'm bothering you with all these Tim Reynolds videos, Lol! He's just such a great player still touring and so very underrated I wish you did a Tim video just to give him props he deserves! Thanks again my brother.... Mike.
Surprisingly good audio Fil. I expected it to be pretty flat when I saw it was outdoors. You found a gem!
☺👍
IMO, THE greatest hard rock band ever. Amazingly, Robert Plant still has the chops. If you get a chance, go see him.
👍
Wow! Never seen this before. Thank you for your awesome review. You don’t miss a thing.
Fil, in my opinion this is THE greatest Rock n Roll band of all time. Robert Plant's voice was his instrument.....
Rock! 🤙🏼🎶❤
No Jethro Tull?
@@gregormiller4037 cross-eyed mary
Here's Plant,,, Oooooooooooooooooo ya
@@gregormiller4037 To me, JMO, I was listening to Physical Graffiti on a portable turntable. I grew up with Zeppelin, Bad Co, Sabbath, Trower, and as much as I love James Dewar's voice I still think Plant is best. I love Jethro Tull also! Saw him/them at The Spectrum in Philly. ✌🏼🎶
Ree McLaughlin except that stole a good many songs...just ask Spirit.
I own nearly everything they put out, along with millions of others in the US where they rank in the top 5 all time.
This is fantastic! If you’re ever in the States and need a place to stay, and a tour of Nashville...Hit me up, brother!😄
Haha thanks!
with a name like crackhack, what could possibly go wrong lol
Fil. you’ve hit my heart with this one. For me, this is the band that inspired my desire to be in a band!! Really appreciate it!!
Kindest regards sir!!
No problem!
Bonham really beats the hell out of the drums... Great drummer...
John Paul's driving bass rhythm lead..
Jimmy was a studio musician everybody would use him on thier tracks... One of the greatest of all time.. He bought allister crawley castle.."demonic...
Vocalizations amazing..Plants the man.. "72" we were drinking keggers hanging on the corner dancing in the Street to some of the best music ever made...
One of the best band's of all time...
👍
Who would have ever thought Robert Plant and Allison Krauss would have a Grammy award for best album. Love it.
My favorite band ✌🏼❤️🤘🏼
I think your analysis of live vs. record is very astute. One of the great things about Zeppelin was their ability to track most everything live, in studio. Then Page would go back and wing the leads on overdub (just a few times and pick the best), or Plant on the harmonies.
Their live performances changed every show so they knew each other's rhythm pretty well. Especially.during these years.
I just love your insight! I love Zeppelin...there is no better...no better guitarist than Jimmy!!
Mentioned seeing LZ for my first concert, Kezar Houses which was amazing (look, they're controlling the weather!!) but Pagey in one tune, Since I've Been Loving You from III. Brought tears to my eyes when i was 13 in '70. Still great........Kills after all this time
Cool!
You mentioned about Page filling in cause of not having a rhythm guitar however listen to the rhythm section Bonham and Jones.
Hadn’t seen this clip. Hoooly! Zep rocks. You’ve nailed it on each musician. Funny to see the crowd standing around, with the odd YEAH!
7 people voted a thumbs down on this video! Must be New kids on the block fans. Sad
Yep!
Yeah....or just to young to know better.
And Justin Bieber fans!
their souls are shrivelled little things, their ears are wrong...
Idiots
What a pure representation of talent!
Hi Fil, have you ever listened to the Page&Plant cd ( ? ) No Quarter? Saw them when they toured for that, what a wonderful concert! When they played at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee,I was sooo impressed with that concert,the next day had to buy the cd. A remake of some old songs with some new material with an Egyptian orchestra with the violins and the other instruments that would be found in same. And that was the most impressive thing to listen to the cd the next day! It was like being at the concert again, only I had to really turn it up at home cuz I'm was still kinda in the hard of hearing mode from the night before :) have a good 'un Fil ! Please give it a listen, just for yer'self !
Cool!
I saw. P & P in Pittsburg. They were very good. I saw Plants Now and Zen tour. I was very close. He was fantastic. He did hey hey what can i do. Highlight for me.
I saw Page and Plant in 1996 in Rio de Janeiro. Great version of this song as you can see: ruclips.net/video/MIpefL5rgNQ/видео.html
BRILLIANT!!! My day has started well! 🤩 🎸 🥁🎤 🎶🎶
These daylight shows with a big stage dwarfs the band. They look like a little four piece hippie band. But they play & it sounds larger than life. Like Zeus,Thor, Poseidon & Apollo are here & they wanna party with you! Thanks Fil I love Led Zeppelin🤘
No problem!
Good stuff ! Fine performance. Excellent evaluation Fil!
Thanks!
Jimmy.Page is light yrs from most of the great.players. Being able to play all types of music is a quality that few can do.
Saw Zeppelin in 1977 at Madison Square Garden! Sounded unbelievable! Still remember the whole show 🔥🔥🔥! 7th row center 👏👏
Cool!
🤘🤘🤘great video🤘🤘🤘
pure history & great 1070 year
Led Zrppelin Band festival 👍🎸🤘
🤘
All so you are right Jimmy is known for riffing but it is his rhythm playing that is the foundation of his greatness he really is a one man band producing writing playing a forward vision what he might lack in technique he more than makes up for it in the fact he wears so many hats been following him for 42 years and still love his style of course the other members of the band are very talented as well cheers
