Copenhagen Warm-Ups 1979 LPs : Led Zeppelin 

Still sounds great !!!

@crungefactory yea I did this about a year ago or so. Yes JCM did a fantastic detail dive into the show. He is a fellow ZepHed brother. I hope you still have it as you won't find it for $15 anymore. Thanks for watching !!!!

Definitely Tiles !! Thanks for dropping by !!!

Yeah I love pages sick again solo, everyone is in good form. I know they blame nerves for kneb shows but page was a mess

Thank you for watching glad you enjoyed it. Yes I am aware of the T.Rex song and Marc Bolan, I will need to look up the Wembley from 1972 track Thanks !!

Anytime is the right time ..thanks for watching Kimbo !!!

They are great shows that are not talked about enough. Thanks for watching !!!

I agree..... I have the 2nd night (I think that's the one you're talking about.....) and it's a killer performance. It was my first boot and it remains in my top 10 fav's even to this day. Good sound quality frankly....

@@DEE-o4v Correct. The only '79-'80 show that can be called Great. First Knebby show is very good but 7/24/79 is better.

Oof big call that!

Yes great to see new fans emerge !!! Thanks for watching !!!

Hey Michael, thanks for dropping by and commenting. Glad I could break up the day for ya. When you see footage and photos from the 1980 Over Europe tour they scaled back their stage show a lot. But yea those Fillmore light shows were epic ...well what I seen in media as I was too young to go then. LOL....cheers my fellow ZepHed !!

Hey Mark, thanks for watching. I was playing these on the anniversary dates over the weekend and thought it be a timely topic. Glad you liked it .

Thanks for watching , how awesome you were at the Oakland show, who knew that would be the last US shows.

Hey DagDrum brag all you want that is fantastic I wish I could say the same, would love to hear your stories. It is a great bootleg and I am very happy with it. I have thought about that on how many shows they did from day one to the last in Berlin. In the big picture of this when you think about it. To be at one of those shows was very lucky. My uncle was at the "Page gets food poisoning" show in Chicago. thanks for watching !!!

@@zeppearl The pleasure's all mine, man. By my count Zep played 586 shows over a 12-year career. They were my first concert too, Aug 4 1969, the band's 149th gig, they'd been together 11 months. It was on the Monday before the Friday night Sharon Tate and three friends' lifespans ended. That night Zeppelin was staying in bungalows behind the Chateau Marmont because they were more private than inside the place where who knows what kind of debauchery took place. Richard Cole's book said those deaths scared the hell out of them, they were only a mile or so from Benedict Canyon. The band & crew immediately decamped to the Hyatt House further up the Strip where they could stay 8 or 9 floors above the street. But I digress, on that Monday three friends and I got to Fair Park ticketless and were told at the door the concert was sold out. We were walking away when a guy as old as my dad wearing a tie exited the venue and ran after us saying "Hey, where y'all going?" "We were told it was sold out." "It is but I've got some standing room only tickets." Even at 16 we were skeptical, especially since he had a roll of Admit One carnival tickets. "C'mon, they're only $4 apiece." "Yeah, but that ticket taker at the door ain't gonna let us in with hokey tickets like that." But the old boy said he'd get us inside and show us where to go and led us right by the guy on the door who didn't even blink. He took us inside, Fairpark is where they hold rodeos to this day, it's a round building with seats on concrete tiers. There are wide spaces that served as stairs. We went up about halfway and he said, "It's okay to sit on these stairs and if someone tells you you can't sit here because it's a fire hazard obstructing the exit just agree and move on to some other steps and sit there, it'll be okay." This was the kind of promotor Peter Grant would kick the crap out of for overselling a concert, not that Grant cared about fire hazards; the bone of contention was the promotor would pocket all the cash and Grant wouldn't get a penny of it. Anyway no one bothered us but I wasn't impressed with the band, they didn't sound like their record. But they weren't awful by any means. The next time I saw Zeppelin was two years later in Aug '71. They played half of Zep IV that night. Imagine the opening of notes of Stairway being played and no one clapping because they'd never heard it before. But Plant's voice was shot that night and again I was less than impressed. Two years later I saw them two nights in a row on the 1973 tour and I've never seen better concerts than those two. That is until 1977 when I saw the band in Houston. Recently a woman was shot and killed in that building, it was no longer the Summit but a megachurch now. Zep played so loud it sounded like two 747s in a hangar having a rack off contest. I saw them on a great night from the '77 tour and thought it every bit as good as the two concerts in 1973. Since I was too young for Vietnam I got to see all the San Francisco bands, Dylan, Purple, Stones, Floyd, Who, Grand Funk, 10 Years After, Sabbath, Johnny Winter and Rush when they still had their voices and their hair. The only bands who came close to playing live as well as Zep were Rush, Winter and The Who. In my opinion anyway. I'm almost 71 and hard rock still moves me as much as it did the first night I saw Zeppelin. My friends always joked that I could teach a college course on LZ so if you've got questions, feel free to ask. I also have all kinds of Zep memorabilia, I'm not talking handbills or glossy 8 by 10s either, I mean rock magazine stuff going back to 1969. I've got two three-ring binders crammed with stuff that the president of a Led Zeppelin fan club offered me a thousand dollars for in 1982 when I was unemployed and I told her no. This late in my life I'm not attached to any of it anymore and I swear my survivors will throw it in the trash.

@@DAGDRUM53 WOW what a great story thank you so much for sharing this. Really enjoyed the read. I was born just a little to late. I was 10 when LZ last toured the states and had no chance of going. I was all into KISS at the time. With no older siblings my uncle was the only one of age that was into rock and seen LZ in 75 & 77. I would go check out his 8-track collection and read bands I never knew till much later. You seen the best of the best as my concert going started in 1980 I have been doing videos about them on the channel. I would of gave anything to see them in the 2007 O2 show let alone back in the 70s. Even the Live Aid & Atlantic 40th shows I missed out and watched in front of a TV. I am a huge fan and do collect items but not able to drop big cash on items. But I would love to see what you have if you ever choose to document your items or stories on You Tube I would love to check it out. You can find my email on my page on info section if you want to send pictures of what you have and asking for them. Thank you so much for your story I have rad it a few times now. Just fantastic !!!! cheers !!!

@@zeppearl I need to catalog my collection to be sure, looking at eBay I've seen junk compared to what I have so overpriced it'll be there till hell freezes over. If my house became suddenly endangered and I had to grab one thing it would an issue CREEM magazine put out right after Knebworth that collected virtually every article and picture they'd published to date about the band; the mag launched in 1969 so it's quite an overview. The first time I ever heard of the band was in late 1968 when Hit Parader ran a full page ad with the cover of Led Zeppelin. At that time I loved Blue Cheer's second album OutsideInside and Wheels of Fire. Led Zeppelin seemed far hipper than the dichotomy of Iron Butterfly. I can't recall if the ad also showed the group photo on the back of the album, but it was the coolest band name I'd ever heard and I knew I'd buy it long before it became available. I'll get back with you soon.

@@DAGDRUM53 no worries anytime..I would want you to get the most out of the items.

Hey Fred Zeppelin !!! Welcome I hope you like what you see as I talk about a lot of bands but Led Zeppelin is always number one !!!

ZONKMAN !!!!! Where ya been brother ?? hope you and Zonkwoman are doing good. LOL .Yea boots are hit or miss the good thing now is you have the interwebs to help before it was take a chance and buy and hope it sounds good. That VH I think sounds great hope you dig it ! peace brother !!!!

Spot on!

Hey Sherman...I agree these two shows are right up there with the early 70s yet get overlooked. thanks for watching glad you got a kick out of it.

Ahh yes the famous Page stormtrooper outfit. Damn so jealous I was only 10 but my uncle went on April 9th the night before but cut short due to Page “stomach flu” .

Hey Lis great to hear from you !! Glad you enjoyed this !!! cheers !!1 - V

Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!

Paul ....damn I am so jealous !!! How lucky to see them live!! cheers !!!

@@zeppearl they were excellent in front of a home crowd, they were obviously nervous to begin with, Achilles Last Stand was so tight!!! So sad that was the last but one time they played Britain 🇬🇧 with JB

@@paulhughes5476 Oh I love Achilles from Knebworth that is on the 2003 DVD, Bonhams fills are insane. thanks for watching !!!

I hate you.....just kidding.

Hey Eddie thanks for watching !! Yea these shows get over looked but after a two hiatus Page comes back strong on these even with his drug addictions at the time.

Be careful......once you start collecting them....they get ADDICTIVE.

Thanks for watching !

That’s about when I picked it up. Thanks for watching !!!

I do like the second night as well.

@dailyflash aww man thats too bad but got do what you got to do..... I understand to start over would be daunting.

Hey Mark, thanks for dropping by. Yea these bootlegs are very good considering. You need the mindset that bootlegs will sound like the person had the mic in their pocket which most of the time that's the case LOL. Thanks for watching !!! I hope to do a few more like this soon. I won't give you heat about "ZOSO" that was more a tongue n' cheek towards someone else LOL. cheers - V

I would like to find these on CD. thanks for watching.

I collect zeppelin bootlegs , also RU-vid has many free download’s available, as some collectors find the audience and soundboards of the same shows and blend both together creating a matrix sound blend that greatly enhances many otherwise mediocre zeppelin live recordings. Type in the LA forum 6-21- 1977 show and look for the download link as this show is the best performance ever of zeppelin especially bonham . Hope this helps . JD

aww man that would of been epic ...I never was given the chance to even try for tickets. As in 1977 I was too young and when I could go in 1980 we know what happened then so no chance at all.

I think so too thanks for watching !!!

@@zeppearl My pleasure. Thank you for sharing!

Blimp Brother Rob !!! Yes I bought 2nd night back in ‘82 . Pageboys I got on 2013 in a hug hall you might remember with the Yardbirds box set. Yes this was the first time hearing ITTOD songs live. I was so stoked as you can tell it’s been played a lot !!! Thanks for watching my friend !!

Hey Richie !!! These sound pretty good even going through my phone to film it. Yup Scrap Metal would be one I would show for the 10 I'll see what else I can show and maybe join in on the thread. Going to be busy with concerts till Sunday but try to cut a video.

@@zeppearl No hurry.

Hello, Gerald You can find these it will take some hunting but they are out there but could get pricey for vinyl. CD copies are out there too from these shows. Places like ebay or private sellers on FB or other sites local record shops. I do not have a place I can send you. JCM has a great channel and does top notch work with his content, we keep in touch. Thanks for watching and the comment there are some great recordings out there good luck. Cheers

@@zeppearl Thanks for the quick response Earl much appreciated.And thanks for the info on how to acquire these recordings.By the way I have the same Led Zep 1977 US Tour T-Shirt just like the one you wore.I have another Zep T-Shirt with the 4 sigils.I plan on buying 7 more LZ t-shirs from Walmart to complete my Led Zep t-shirt collection.Led Zep is my favorite band of all time.

@@geraldjenkins7719 You can never have enough LZ shirts :) . Their are some very cool designs out there. Thanks again for watching cheers-VK

I do think the 2nd night is a great boot. Thanks for watching and yes go get the first night why not have both !! LOL cheers !!!

Hi Wolverine, Yea I loved the fake names it was fun to figure them out. Loved the story I wish I picked up more bootleg CDs when I see them I try to snag them if the are in decent shape. How cool you so you burned Charlie's copies. Thank you so much for watching and sharing your story !!!!

RIP Millard.....he did rock & roll fans a MASSIVE service. May he rest in peace wherever he is .......

George, yes they are I put links in the discretion box and I agree the band was tight but loose more on these shows then it seems at Knebworth. Thanks for watching !!

7/24/79 was most likely their best show after '73.

I am aware of 'The Can" yes. but no I do not own it and never have seen it in person. The is aweful that it was stolen uggg effin people!!! Sorry to hear that. Thanks for watching !!!

Eric I will look out for you too . If I come across good one I snag it for ya.

@@zeppearl that would be super cool. Thanks man.

Hello Jorge, You have some great titles bootlegs there many I don't have. I think I like the Copehagan Warm-Up a little better sound wise. thank you for watching !!!

Kellie oh I traded or gave away or sold many LPs that I regret.

Yup. I sold 60 or so zep boots in the early 2000s much to my chagrin. I do have a few left, including day 2 of Copenhagen

Uh....yeah.

That is what I love about its like a big secret or code we had to figure out . Thanks for watching !!

Well in fairness its the camera mic picking the sound from speakers. But yes probably a few generation pressings later got it in mid 80s.

@@zeppearl absolutely.thanks

I bought Melancholy Danish Pageboys in 1982 or 1983...can't remember. It was £25 I think and I've avoided playing it too much. The sound quality on mine is very good though. As for the lighting rig, most of it was too big to fit in the Falconer Theatre which wasn't apparent until they tried! Thanks for the vid, I've never seen another copy until now, the band were on very good form 👍.

@@charliecoutts3003 Charlie to my ears this sounds really good I guess it did not come off as good as I was hoping on camera but just giving a sample of it. Thank you for watching !!!!

@@zeppearl Thanks fella, I was actually responding about the sound quality to @raykopp9522 who said it sounded 'Horrible'. Mine is excellent quality as I said, I have been wondering how much it's worth although I wouldn't sell it. I only live down the road from Jimmy Page...... don't get the wrong idea, I'm in Hammersmith he's off Kensington High Street by Holland Park a little posher! 🤣. Maybe I should pop down and see him with my copy, he might not have one 👍😊.

Ray I think you are right the "Pageboys came out first. I have yet to find a Knebworth bootleg. Which should I look for the recording you have? thanks for watching!!
