Check out my ORIGINAL MUSIC here: lawrencegaughan.com This is Killing Floor for the Fillmore 69. Thanks for listening Please FOLLOW my original music on SPOTIFY open.spotify.com/artist/0jdqO...
I cannot undersatnd why folks think Jones doesnt get recognition . Every musician that I know is well aware of what Jones brings to the table. Alot of fans may not know the extent of his contributions to this band ,but on the whole it pretty hard not to notice how good a player he is on his bass guitar or whatever he is playing on a given day . Jones is well regarded by anyone who knows who he is.
If he would have stood up front more with his legs apart in a half squat and banged his head around more... just sayin'. He really was a valuable asset to this band. Wouldn't have been Zeppelin without him. Shy guy.
Jpj doesn't like to be interviewed he likes to be on the back of the group but loves to be in the band loves to do what he does but he stay out of the spot lite and doesn't like interviews he loves what he does behind everyone. He's just a quiet guy
My thoughts on this whole Zeppelin plagurism thing. I used to play with an old black harmonica player who said "you got to take the music, make it your own, add to it, and leave it for the next guy" and that is exactly what Zeppelin did. Blues based, is a I, IV, V music composition format and yes you are going to hear those other snippet licks in that from the old greats. And if you listen to Howlin' Wolf to Buddy Guy and so on, you hear a lot of the same thing, themes, licks in that. So the greats 'stole' from each other. So all this Zeppelin plagurism is pure jealousy and that our culture since Watergate tears down anything that reaches the top because we just can't all ourselves to have inspirational heros anymore. So jump in a lake, Jimmy is Guitar Hero.
Plagiarism? Silly argument. Led Zep - like every musician and music fan in England at that time - had a massive love of and for the Blues. It became incredibly popular and fashionable for the music crowd, meaning everybody from old WW2 jazz folks, to hip '50s & 60s kids, pop performers and audiences.... Did they 'cover' much of it, with their own style? Sure! Did they ever hide or deny that? Hell no! They were PROUD of it. You should hear Eric Clapton talk about this stuff. They all had an absolute Blues fetish. I don't mind. I enjoyed the results...
My take is when the use terms like "Rock Star" or "Guitar Hero" They are actually referring to Jimmy Page. Any doubts - view White Summer from Albert Hall in 1970.
@@estebanillogonzalez1440 Photo Stills. I thought their last rehearsals were in London anyways. Those stage shots are the O2 Arena in 07 so yea, a tape from 1969 is very doable....
If this was from a live performance, from a concert in 1969....then why are they showed the recent photos of the 3 remaining band members?.... should they should've shown photos of the group from 1969?...was there any photos from that show?
The early live version of *_The Lemon Song,_* with a different intro and *_Killing Floor_* part. This sound is perfect, strong and kick-ass. Led Zeppelin in their prime.
There is a lot of insanely good guitarist out there in the world, literally hundreds of thousands insane guitarists... Jimmy Page is the most badass one
patrick jaroch maybe he wasn't too fussed about being in the limelight and instead left that to Page and Plant. I'm sure he had his fair share of remuneration, therefore had no reason to complain.
Don't know if this is his best solo but it's a superb one - inventive and melodic. What you get with the greats like Jimmy and Jeff Beck is DIRECTION - a shape that takes you from one point to the next, building all the time - a beginning, middle and end. Without that you're just 'noodling' as Frank Zappa once said.
Jimmy Page is an original, a magician...though he sometimes seems completely lost in the music and isn't as clean...he is better than all the shit we hear today...combined. Those who disagree, please listen to all his solos both live and studio versions and then judge for yourself.
You haven't heard my generations actually music taste, the reason is cuz were over guitar rifts as the guitar has 99% been completely discovered. We also have tons of guitar songs just not heavy rifts. Like I said humanity's moved on too lryics if you'd like some suggestions
@@sdc7823 basically he said people overall tastes moved from riffs and heavier instrumental basis to the human voice and simplier beats, and that even guitar songs these days are played in a more "lyricaly" fashion, trying to emulate the way a voice makes melodies insted of doing it in the traditional guitar way of scales and stuff, which is kinda true looking at the music scene now.
I like this because it shows the "garage band" of Led Zepplin. Boys just rocking out, finding the groove, digging each other's soul and finding it as a band. I miss that about bands. Nowadays, it is not about the soul of rock, but the almighty dollar. Keep the post up and teach this kids what real music is.
One of Page's greatest solos from Led Zeppelin days, I agree, and I know very well....I was lucky to see them 49 times between 1969 through 1977(even got to meet Page twice, Yardbirds concert in October 1967 and again down in Key West in January of 1994) That year of 1969 was a very magical year for Led Zeppelin, so much improv on songs from that debut album recorded in '68 and some of the new songs recorded on the road that would appear on Led Zeppelin II. They set the standard of Hard Rock Blues with elements of Folk, Celtic and Middle Eastern. Not to mention how to record and promote an album and deal with record companies and Promoters, Especially Promoters. Through 1969 I didn't spend more than $5.50 on a ticket, and that price got you up front. Their music will stand the test of time, but there'll never be another band like Led Zeppelin....Led Zeppelin Live was an amazing, spiritual, musical experience. The band Led Zeppelin is gone, but we have the music, and that's what counts, it's always been about the music, and Page told me that twice. 🎸🎤🎸🥁
Andy Thomas It's easy to be impressed.......by the greatest rock band ever. I'm 49, I'm no boy. I was there when music actually rocked. I've seen the Who, the Stones, Johnny Winter, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath with both Dio and Ozzy, I saw SRV when he was still playing small venues. I actually have perspective. Now, back to your trolling.
Zigz Zagz 49 I knew it. You missed it all! I'm 62 I've seen The Stones/Hendrix/Cream/Pink Floyd w/Syd Barrett/Spirit/The Doors/Blind Faith/Jeff Beck (The 'Truth' Band)/Albert King/BB King/John Lee Hooker/Muddy Waters/Miles Davis/Roland Kirk/Frank Zappa. As for The Who. I saw them in '67 and went to the premiere of Who's Next at The Rainbow In London in '71. I saw Sabbath at The Temple in London in '69 two weeks after the first album came out! They were fucking moronic. We went for pizza when the started to murder the old Aynsley Dunbar classic 'Warning'. Jesus what saps! As for going to see Dio I wouldn't listen to him if you paid me. So, a pretty narrow mainstream sort of taste you've got there. Not a lot to base any real perspective on anything I'd say.
Man...alot of these people have alot to say but its obvious they don't play guitar and they haven't really listened to Jimmy play....sloopy???Give me a break...he's just to fast for you.I've been playing for 55 years...I've been in awe of the man when he first floored me in the Fillmoe East in 69....He is and always be the best creative innovator on the rock,blues guitar....and believe me i know of Jimmy Herring...Roy Buchannan(another genious) i know them all...Jimmy is in a class by himself.Ide love to hear some of the mouthes on here play Since I've Been Loving You.....get a grip.
So young and hungry a band at this time. Everything was new and musically adventurous for them in their youth. So much creative experimentation in the moments on stage. They really had to go out there and prove themselves. And that they did.
the first riff actually comes from the Howlin Wolf's version of Killing Floor off his electric blues album from the late 60s...can't remember the name of it off the top of my head. Damn good riff for sure!
Real hammer of the gods...They were way before their time, in every sence of the word.....Real good musicians, good performers, and excellent all around, THE BEST OF ALL TIME
Jimmy's playing (and there are others) can't be duplicated only imitated. One of the top guitarists in London at 19! I can now say I've done a 20 hour LZ marathon with (almost) no repeats....but fell asleep before getting to 24! Once it gets into you it will never leave....Thanks for the upload!
fullstop213 from that era him, Hendrix and Gilmour can't be duplicated. A guitarist who plays with emotion is a master of their craft that no one but them can make the guitar sing.
This was a great concert from the early days. Jimmy Page was always my top choice but remember some of his best work was yet to come; ‘71, 73, 75 were awesome. Thanks for putting this one up. We used to get taped bootlegs just to hear concerts….times have changed, release all the concerts !
This was the first Zep boot I ever got, and still one of my favorites. I knew the show within the first second. This is such an outlier in terms of Jimmy's usual playing and tone, but I frickin' love it.
Wow man, never heard this one! Thanks so much. Yeah, it's definitely a bit of Killin' Floor. Best Page solo EVER? Well, that's awfully hard, and in the ear of the beholder. This is awesome to hear though. Kind of hard to surpass what he did during some of the versions of Dazed though. (or How Many More Times)
I really wish this opening riff got onto a studio recorded song. So killer. Soundgarden's smokestack lighting is the same riff but still somehow doesn't have the same gut punch as this does. Listening to this gives me stanky blues face.
Wow man...... Still trying to put the pieces of my head back together after having it blown to shattered fragments of blistering joy courtesy of the the Break Neck Boys of Heavy Iconic Rock n Roll........ Thanks Again!!!!
I sat watched a young jimmy robert plant george harrison jam like this in a house in Denmark Western Australia as a 12 year old girl ....they were awesome friends but friction plus plus with page and plant. plant was experimental page a dedicated classic rock electric guitarist.
Yea, I've heard this on other videos from that concert. My life goal is to someday achieve that tone, which I regard as the holy grail of Fuzz. Too bad it will never happen.
Listening ALL DAY to Led Zep and after all it is Jimmy's Birthday today! What Masterpiece's Jimmy! Since my freshman year in High School I have adored your guitar playing! Happy Birthday & Thank you LawrenceofVA~WOW!!!!!!!
if they were around today in this capacity, they would be a phenomenon...nobody could touch them; the stuff from 1968 is just (no words)...nobody touches them to this day...rr
Gerald, there's nothing original about today's bands. In 38 years, nobody has been able to touch Led Zeppelin (or the Allman Brothers). Led Zep combined hard rock, blues, folk music, and some jazz. That's why they sold over 200 million records, sold out the biggest US venues in seconds, and more than 2 million people requested tickets for their reunion in '07. Bands today try to emulate them but they can't even imitate them.
Holy crow! Astoundingly fantastic! You deserve a Grammy for tweaking this and posting it, I salute you sir. At the old age of 54 I have concluded that any of the great reputations generated during this genre had to have been founded on something substantial. Back then there was no real technology to fake this level of skill, and believe it or not, people are age were hard to fool. They had to have earned your respect at some point. Not the same with today's wannabes.
thanks from Canada for posting this. It's the 4 together - not just JP- that creates the magic. bass groove underneath no small part. and Plant - as usual - brings his own raw texture to a blues classic. the imperfections are essential to a raw, live performance
To think I even get to hear this. What an honour. Honestly. A jam from what was the best band of the current age IMO Just awesome to be able to get into this.
I'm glad you did title it like that as I would not have checked it out otherwise and it certainly is worth listening to. Thanks for posting it, Its great.
Lo más sublime del rock expresado en guitarras percusión y voces con los mejores exponentes de este género musical.Los inoxidables Led Zepellin....!!!Viva el Rock carajo!!!
I don't believe I will ever have the pleasure hearing james live as the demand is too high and the opportunities so few.I would like to hear more of his acoustic work but it seems we will be denied this also.
oh yeeeeeeeeeeah!.....can I get a witness people? fearlessly cryin my souls tears and it comes and goes with the wind of the life of the legend and fear is not amongst my possesions of love and the swing of the vine in the land of the holy and the righteous sons and daughters of the revolution and great almighty Zep shall rise above the sin and the pain of mans unjustly becomings.... amen to the child...
Damn Right !! I would LOVE to Add-Lib a little to your "Sermon" on The Mighty Majestic Mountain of Led Zepplin; Too Late at night to leave much of a comment. Maybe another night. But Amen to the child here too !!!
I personally knew a bass player that was a session player hired by Page that was rehearing with the guys at the time. The goal and intent was a world tour. It ended up as a one off at the O2. Plant was the deal killer on the workd tour.
Sean McGeeney they rehearsed for 2 years to prepare. never found out what exactly killed the tour only that plant said no. this never got out in the news. super duper secret.
Wayne Robison Wow I didn't know they rehearsed anywhere near so long, Plant probably said no because it would be more pressure than he'd have ever had, and his voice may not have stuck it
Led Zepp fans, there a band in sourthern California by the name of Loud Zeppelin that really plays the music very very good, keep your eyes open the flight takes off this summer !!
La mejor banda de la historia no podria tener otra cosa que al mejor guitarrista ... despues de Hendrix lejos el mejor guitarrista del mundo ... tengo 40 años y gracias a mi viejo escucho led zeppelin desde los 12 que me regalo mi primer cd de led zeppelin 2 ....
Very good. I consider myself an expert of Zeppelin but never heard that stuff. They really are not a music band, they are story tellers by making sounds, sounds that give you colossal energy and positive point of view on life, they make you to be better. If you want just to listen to good music, play Deep Purple or etc.
Live at the Fillmore!!!! Page's riff is just diabolically good, one of the meanest riffs ever laid down when Plant starts chanting with it. ... So this was one of the original Zep boots that were still around in the 1980s. It was said to be early early first US tour Zep from the Jan. 1969 shows at the Fillmore and had this spooky version of "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" on it, and the sound wasn't too good -- it phases in and out and tracks would fade into the grooves. But this early take on "Killing Floor"/"The Lemon Song" wouldn't have happened in January, so it was later decided that this was from April 1969 Fillmore shows on the second US tour, which does make more sense. However, it's entirely possible that the original vinyl had recordings from both January and April 1969 Fillmore shows -- hence the confusion, and there weren't much in the way of liner notes on the one I had (sadly, no longer in my possession). Incredible that this stuff is still around and there seems to be even more of it available. And thanks much for posting this!!
@@noname.___ I figured it out pretty easily but was playing the same notes on the wrong part of the fretboard 😂 I learned it by ear between the open and 4th fret when it's really played between the 5th and 9th on the lower strings. You can find tabs by looking up "smokestack lightning soundgarden"
