I would venture to say that the drummers ability to channel Bonzo's spirit into his drumsticks is why Page followed them around. Just jaw dropping awesomeness. Sent shivers down my spine to hear someone do those beats that well..
Best song of the nite, I was there 5th row. Gorman drove it home the entire show. Jimmy's last words to the audience, with a big smile on his face: "This show was for you". He knew it was the closest thing to a Zeppelin in decades.
Goddamn right it was the closest thing to Zeppelin. Only other good Zeppelin recorded live concert in my opinion was the royal Albert hall one in 1970.
I was at this show. Hands down the best concert I've ever seen. 3 hours of heaven at the best venue in LA. I'm so glad it was documented and recorded so I could live these moments over and over.
You said it. I never thought there could be another drummer to play this like Bonham, but this drummer does not miss a beat and is fantastic. Plays about just as hard as Bonham also. Great stuff.
That's the best cover of any Led Zep song I've ever seen or heard. Helped a lot by having the real Jimmy there but everyone else was excellent. The Black Crowes have their act together.
It's a good one but you should definitely check out the 77's cover of Nobody's Fault. That, in my opinion, is the greatest Zeppelin cover I've ever seen or heard, and even without any original members. Hope you enjoy it.
Went to the Oct. 19, 1999 at the Greek. Best show ever seen. Gorman killed it. My favorite drummer since. This was the best show of the nite. First row out of the pit, sitting next to Randy Johnson (theUnit). after the show Jimmy grabbed the mic and graciously thanked everyone and said "this is for you". He was stoked to have the young crowes back him up on the Zep power songs in a class way.
Jimmy Page's dalliance with The Black Crowes was amazing, I only wish it had lasted longer. I love Jimmy Page and The Black Crowes. I own everything that they released. I believe that Jimmy missed the opportunity to have dueling-guitars, in his Led Zeppelin days. Songs like Ten Years Gone required several guitars, a layered guitar-sound, which was lacking in his Led Zeppelin days.
It's already mind boggling and insane enough what Jimmy just by himself was able to do in Zep but with a 2nd guitar!? The universe said no the world is just not ready for that. Planet Earth would implode or explode.
MassiveAttack969, if you ever get the chance to see the tribute band Get The Led Out (GLTO), I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. They do just that. Recreate LZ's music in it's natural studio form only in a live setting. The use of three guitarists to capture Page's magic is incredible! Spine chillin stuff!!
You exactly expressed my thoughts. Enormous fan of Mr. Page and love The Black Crows as well. Jimmy always had to compromise when playing live because he so masterfully layered those guitars in the studio but here (in this live RUclips video) we get it all. Lot's of the great bands have/had a second guitar but I don't think Page could have recorded with another second guitarist given he had that vision of what he wanted to produce....he's a virtuoso.
other than Zep,these guys are such a great match for Page,Chris's vocals are so soulful,no one else could have done it so intensely,great job by the drummer as well thank you for posting this!
Page and the crowes make a great combination. Dunno why I never heard that they did this. Really great job doing one of my favorite all time Zep songs. It seems like a natural fit.
no dude, it isn't. Page sucks in this song. Trying to perform a cover of himself and failing. If he was trying to cover Blind Willie Johnson's original, as they were when recording their absolutely great studio version of In My Time Of Dyin', this performance would have been better by miles.
Kah'oo'un R. M. Klein you must be fucking deaf if you think that willie jonson and led zep versions are the same, they are completly different, also thhat song was not written by johnson its a traditional piece of blues
I never said they were the same... Have I? A cover is not "the same" as the original. It can attempt to be, or it can be completely different (like all covers by Led Zeppelin). Thanks for the info on the fact that it wasn't written by Blind Willie Johnson. I didn't know that.
Kurtis Williams I flew from NC to Tampa for their show, but Page had to pull out for back problems. We swapped our tickets and saw the Who the next night.
If I'd been at this show I'd have gone outside and blown my head off when it was over, knowing it would never get any better. Imagine being in a rock and roll band and one night Jimmy Paige comes to play with you. The BC's kill it, well done, Chris does a great job with the vocals. Very true to the original. "Jesus gonna make me."
How have I never seen this??? The time Jimmy Page walked in and made the black crows into Zeppelin!! Doesn't work with most bands! That drummer killed it❤
LZ played this relatively close in pace at Earl's Court. I didn't feel that it was too fast myself, although Jimmy obviously has lost a step or two and has some difficulty keeping up during the solo portions. Gorman ripped the asshole out of his drum kit. Anyone that thinks he's not a good drummer needs to have their head examined. Do you not see Jimmy looking back at the kit with a huge smile? This is an extremely good cover.
Great charity gig around this time followed up by full-fledged tour. Immortalized on album "Live at the Greek" - best live album of this decade, bar none.
The opening riff goes right to my gut everytime I listen to it. I remember when JP cut this tour short due to a bad back. I felt like a kid who's ice cream scoop had plopped onto the pavement after the first lick. I had tickets and had to get a refund. At least JP got better, i think. =^{
I saw this Show at The Greek Theatre In Los Angeles C.A. And it was Amazing. A few months later they released The Double Album Of That Show. It was Incredible to see and Relive that Night under The Stars With Jimmy Page & The Black Crows 😇😎
I have an excellent bootleg copy of this show on dvd & the video is taken from a handheld camera in the audience but the guy did a great job of zooming in & out & what more can I say about the audio it is a soundboard recording that was digitally enhanced & it sounds great. I recommend anybody who is a fan get this if they can!
Jimmy Page's body language is saying "I really dig this drummer" I remember when Page toured with these guys. I wish that I had gotten a ticket to the show.
I think he was teleported back in time there for a few moments, he was in Madison Square Gardens and John Bonham was siting behind the kit. Then you see him kind of snap out of it.
Younger bands backing up older geezers is nothing new (Yardbirds and Howlin' Wolf, et al). Now, I am seeing my heros being supported by a newer breed. What a damn good performnce this is. If I close my eyes, I am back in Dallas, 1975.
Holy Shit,, just bumped into this. MAD props to TBC... NAILED this timeless jam. Jimmy.. priceless bro. Yeah.. dude on the skins was going off no doubt! This was a great Zepp' album. Wish for more music like Physical 'G' to come out someday! \,,\
Marriott was the man. I remember hearing a story from my Uncle, in which he saw Marriott perform and his mic went out..well good ole Steve never stopped singing and he could still hear him over everything. Boy that man could belt it out...what a damned voice.
FREAKIN' SICK! Don't know that any other band could have pulled this off with JP and i think he knew that going into this gig or else he wouldn't have done it! Sounds as fresh and soulful as it did back in the day!
This is what music is all about. Also, I must admit there are a lot of great new bands out there these days! Yeah! It seems things are really looking up again, and I'm lovin' it! Great job kids out there!
Only a band like The Black Crowes could do justice as a Zep cover band because The Black Crowes have always been deep blues from the beginning and never swayed from their roots. Also, their lead singer is one of the few that really sounds like Plant. In fact, in the 90s when they became famous Plant said in interviews that he really liked The Black Crowes and Nirvana because they sounded the most exciting at that time.
Saw this show in 2000 at the star lake Pittsburgh still the best show I have ever seen there was so Much day light pot smoke tho the next day the radio station w d v e said that Jimmie page and the black crows said thank you Pittsburgh for the fog.
HOLY. FUCK. I had the divine opportunity to see them on this tour in Pittsburgh in '00 and The Who was at the same venue the next day, with Entwistle on bass and Jason Bonham on drums. YOWZA. What a weekend!
There's been various drummers trying to fill in for John Bonham since the original Zep-days - I reckon Gorman is the best I've heard in doing justice to Bonham's drumming - he really locks into to that Bonham powerful hook-and-groove. What a great combo: 'Crows and 'Page :D
I would venture to say that the drummers ability to channel Bonzo's spirit into his drumsticks is why Page followed them around. Just jaw dropping awesomeness. Sent shivers down my spine to hear someone do those beats that well..
Oh fuck yes
Steve Gorman is a fucking boss, got done dirty by the Robinson Brothers.
@@paulfbeatty dont know the story, will have to read his book
Yeah cant say Ive sen a clip where Jason shines like this.
Sweet downbeat
my Favourite thing about this Video is THE DRUMMING! GOSH such Awesome drumming Dude, BONZO would be proud!
#Zoso
That drummer is gettin' it!
I think John Bonham would've been proud to see this.
He has to. The song requires it.
Hell yes he is !
When Jimmy Page is looking directly at you at the turn, you have no choice .
Yes he is very heavy handed like Jon 😊
I love Jimmy's casual grunge look that he had going on with crows. He's like your mechanic uncle who came around to jam. ❤️🤘
An amazing live performance. Props to the Black Crowes. Sound quality on this video is excellent.
Holy Crap. Major respect for this cover. That drummer really DID do Bonzo proud. Just "wow".
Agreed indeed ✌️
@@bollweevil1976 Steve Gorman, and the brothers have cut him out......
@@MrJimyjaymes so I take it it did not last long?
The black crows are good but.. you add jimmy page and well it is jimmy page.
@@bollweevil1976 They were together for 20i$h year$, for some rea$on on this "reunion" tour they have cut out original member$. Not $ure why.....
The star of this performance........the Drummer. He made John Bonham proud. That is one of Bonham’s very best drum beats.
What a master Jimmy Page is.
Robinson's vocal style really lends itself better to this ZEP song than some of the others he sings.
The band really manages to nail this classic.
Saw them at Net Aid. Third row. Could practically reach out and touch Chris.😁
Ever notice how much he looks n sounds like Terry Reid ??? amazing !!!!
nine and a half minutes of genius
Shomer Fuckin' Shabbas!
+Winston Smith Well... That makes you one of the little Lebowski achievers
So...racially, he's pretty cool?

Goddamn right it was the closest thing to Zeppelin. Only other good Zeppelin recorded live concert in my opinion was the royal Albert hall one in 1970.
Where was it
Nice
His drumming was second to one!
I was at this show. Hands down the best concert I've ever seen. 3 hours of heaven at the best venue in LA. I'm so glad it was documented and recorded so I could live these moments over and over.
The Greek was there too
When music rained but this song just hit hard and so.good
St Peter blow ur horn yaha
You said it. I never thought there could be another drummer to play this like Bonham, but this drummer does not miss a beat and is fantastic. Plays about just as hard as Bonham also. Great stuff.
Steve is amazing ❤

This is good. But check out Samantha Fish's take. She deserves mad props too
Al Pal it isn't actually a Zeppelin song. It is originally from the 1920s.
1927 Blind Willie Johnson
Thank You by Chris Cornell, or any Zeppelin cover by heart

Hey Kids, this is what live music sounds like, just so you know..because it is not gonna be around too much longer. So take it in....
a nice tribute to blind willie johnson!!!!
no dude, it isn't. Page sucks in this song. Trying to perform a cover of himself and failing. If he was trying to cover Blind Willie Johnson's original, as they were when recording their absolutely great studio version of In My Time Of Dyin', this performance would have been better by miles.

blues
that is the best robert plant imitation ever ... which of course we all knew it would be
Right! Nobody else comes close mate. Chris is a rock god
3 guitar attack + Chris' unmatched passion+ Steve Gorman kicking the shit out of his drumkit=greatest live album of all time....sho' nuff
I give it a 10 - Nothing but a stellar production!!!
Jimmy still kills it
This is 1999....
i bet he still kills it :) in 2016
jim I don't think so.... he hasn't been playing out
He ROCKS!!!!!!
Jimmy and Black Crowes a nice collaboration indeed.
I love to watch the emotion on page's face when he plays......magical.
You know it's Jimmy's playing by the second note without even looking. He's a wonder!
The best drumming ever.
well, nearly as good as JB, but yes...
Was at that show...Steve Gorman did Bonzo proud!
Kurtis Williams
I flew from NC to Tampa for their show, but Page had to pull out for back problems.
We swapped our tickets and saw the Who the next night.
TEMPO!!!!!!!! Way too fast....
Eric Waters
I believe Mr. Page set the tempo in the intro . . . .
Came to watch Page, but was blown away by the drummer. Hell yea man, I love getting goosebumps!
Drummer is almost note for note like Bonham.
If I'd been at this show I'd have gone outside and blown my head off when it was over, knowing it would never get any better.
Imagine being in a rock and roll band and one night Jimmy Paige comes to play with you. The BC's kill it, well done, Chris does a great job with the vocals. Very true to the original.
"Jesus gonna make me."
The black crows' drummer is best i've even seen playing "in my time of dying"
Tight. Very Tight. Love the Crowes and the Zep. This is magical
I remember this CD coming out, WOW, it blew OUR minds.
Stay sober Jimmy, Jack and Jim no longer can hang in.
I assume you are referring to Jack Daniels and Jim Beam.
Jimmy Page & The Black Crowes are absolutely awesome , nuff said
95% anyway. Anyone else would have destroyed it.
Jesus is actually awesome!
yes he is, we all need more of him in our lives. and thank god for led zeppelin.
Amen!! He is so good to me!! Praise His name!!
The Black Crows drummer was spot on! Wow.
I never heard a song with 12 changes in it until I heard this song 30 years ago.
Every time I hear Zeppelin. They still sound new.
Congrats to Rock n Rollers like Jimmy Page to make it passed 70.
How have I never seen this??? The time Jimmy Page walked in and made the black crows into Zeppelin!! Doesn't work with most bands! That drummer killed it❤
Always liked Jimmy page and black crows together and separate. All the musicians are tight and Chris's vocal are spot on. So cool
Fucking tight! Might very well be one of the greatest rock and roll performances ever!
always been one of my favorite zeppelin songs besides just about all of them... this is a killer version, very tight playing
probably my favorite Zeppelin song. RIP Bohnam
LZ played this relatively close in pace at Earl's Court. I didn't feel that it was too fast myself, although Jimmy obviously has lost a step or two and has some difficulty keeping up during the solo portions. Gorman ripped the asshole out of his drum kit.

Gorman played one of the best grooves I've ever heard on this song. In the pocket, not too flashy, perfect fills...outstanding.
NEVER
Jimmy + Drummer = perfection 🏄🏄🏄😜
physical graffitti is by far the best led zep album. they reached their apex of creativity & talent.
same guitar he played on the 75 tour!
Chris B the Danelectro ❤️
1961 Danelectro
Its easy to forget when your listening to these legendary guitar rifts that your watching the man that wrote them.
The smile on Page's face says it all. Period.
Great charity gig around this time followed up by full-fledged tour. Immortalized on album "Live at the Greek" - best live album of this decade, bar none.
WOW. Everybody KILLED it.

All these years later. Jimmy knew what band to pick. Forever lasting

This is as good as you can get. His riffs are like full scale attack to your ears. Pure energy.

Boy that man could belt it out...what a damned voice.
I always enjoyed the Crowes but this is just fucking amazing 🤘
page + crowes = good times
He’s the greatest guitar player I’ve ever seen period
Same guitar Jimmy played at Earls Court 1975 for this song. And it still rips 20 years later.
FREAKIN' SICK! Don't know that any other band could have pulled this off with JP and i think he knew that going into this gig or else he wouldn't have done it! Sounds as fresh and soulful as it did back in the day!

Gorman is KILLING it on this one!
That's gonna be the one, isn't it!?
Come have a listen, then...
bearmassaro Oh yes, thank you!
Cough....
Plinky plinky plink
Cough!
Gorman will never drum this well again, no one will
Steve Frost it's like Kelly Olynyk in game 7 against The Wizards. He'll never play like that again.
I love it. Have seen both many times-great!!!
Glad I listened to this and I thought it was absolutely awesome.
Those drums...wow!!
They knocked this one out of the FN park!!
One of my fave Zep tracks!
The Crows was, is, and always will be one of the best talents in music...
Would truly LOVE to see Page and Steve Gorman playing together again.
Holy CrAp this rocks ! Love Jimmy

The impossible become possible. Thank you God ‼️
Jimmy Page nailed it.
This wickedly is insane...Page IMO maybe the greatest guitarist that ever lived...
and the Crowes here do an incredible job to make this magic.
Nicest guy in the world and he rocks. Love that he did this collab with the crowes
what an amazing performance. Zeppelin covers no bounds and reaches everyone. can't feel the beat might wanna see a doctor. Well done Indeed
man i love that guitar
lucky and happy to brag I made it to both greek shows. thx for the post.
Jimmy, I'm mec eng 🇧🇷🇨🇦, and a love you tougher ‼️ Thank you Jimmy ‼️🏄🏄😜😀🏄🇨🇦💂
Wonderful Jimmy
Blind Willie Johnson would have been proud
The drummer is the most amazing person on that stage ✌️
Steve can hit the skins
who could have possibly not liked this?!?!? WTF?!?!? This is F'n killer!
The Black Crowes are really groove!
That's why Jimmy Page decided to make it with them!!!]
HOLY. FUCK. I had the divine opportunity to see them on this tour in Pittsburgh in '00 and The Who was at the same venue the next day, with Entwistle on bass and Jason Bonham on drums. YOWZA. What a weekend!
next request is Achilles last Stand
There's been various drummers trying to fill in for John Bonham since the original Zep-days - I reckon Gorman is the best I've heard in doing justice to Bonham's drumming - he really locks into to that Bonham powerful hook-and-groove. What a great combo: 'Crows and 'Page :D
You drive the best crazy..
