See them do this LIVE in Frankfurt Germany in 1970(?), I was trippin' my ass off and at first I didn't think this was Led Zeppelin when they first started cause they were playing their songs from the first studio album and I kept saying this ain't Zeppelin til they played this song and boy did it ROCK!!!! I then said, 'that's Led Zeppelin!' The people in front of me turned around and gave me a real funny look, can you imagine?? What a show though, FANTASTIC!!!
My doctor put me on a diet. "YES IT'S A DRAG!" "YES IT'S A DRAG!" "YES IT'S A DRAG!" "AND YES IT'S A DRAG!" "YOU KNOW I DON'T! I DON'T! I DON'T THINK THAT'S RIGHT!" (Thank God, and Zeppelin, for the blues. Ya feelin' me, ladies? :-D )
GOD DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There will never be another Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, I feel lucky to have been born while these two gods of rock were alive
In my book Jimmy Page flew past Jimi Hendrix decades ago. Big fan of all the greats (Clapton, Beck, Blackmore, Stevie Ray, Eddie VH, Gilmour, Gary Moore, Eric Johnson, Brian May, Satriani, Vai, Prince, Billy Gibbons. Terry Kath.....) but shy boy Jimmy Page is by far the GOAT! Has been for ages and always will be! These other 15 and anyone else can aim for 2nd place - no one besting Jimmy Page - ever!.
This tune has got to be the best thing that ever hit the music business and the world for that matter! Words can not express how powerful this band is. To this day I still get mezmorized and go into stare when I hear this song. I just love them and wish time woiuld go away, so we all could LIVE happly ever after! LED ZEPPLIN FOREVER!
This solo by page is much more professional and... just amazing then the other fast ones and rapid ones from Zeppelin. Gives you a different take on his guitar playing.
I'm thinking this is just another night that puts the seal on Robert's decision to un-Jimmy his life for awhile. I'm a guitar player sayin' that - he's stepping all over Plant.
Just amazing!! watched an old documentary on how Page took many takes for this song on the orignal album to get it perfect. This is as good or better in one take and live. Bravo. This and Shine on You Crazy Diamond will always be my 2 favorite songs.
people stop bashing them not playing with JPJ. why they have to play with JPJ?at least they didnt call it zeppelin. it page and plant.they can play with whoever they want .im not against JPJ or anything,but just tried of seeing every videos of page and plant there were people bashing them not play with JPJ, got over it, people
37 years old...have heard LZ since I was in diapers, and the music STILL floors me every time I hear it. I remember how excited I was when Page&Plant did their UnLedded project, as well as this tour....yes, LZ was a combination of Robert, Jimmy, Bonzo and Jonesy that made the music so great. But having at least the voice and that sweet, sweet '59 Les Paul Standard being lorded over by Page made me feel GOOD(I bet Joe Walsh is STILL kicking himself for having sold it).
@funkymonk80 I recorded it on VHS from MTV and jimmy played notes in places you dont actually hear in this version, like theyve cut them out to clean it up but I prefer the original im used to it.
@Quanticco The Rain Song and Battle of Evermore...they're on the DVD "Plant and Page Unledded," and I now realize that the documentary you mentioned is probably what's on that DVD too. I thought I was missing something the way you described it lol Sorry for troubling you, but I had to make sure I didn't miss out on a Zep documentary.
@sharrer2 I wouldn't say Jimmy's solo is more professional, but I think I know what you're gettin' at. It's like the man was just FEELIN' it...picking his soul out of his body with his fingers...
Glad Jimmy Page pulled himself together after the drugs in the late 70s early 80s. He was pro, then a little less pro, then quite sloppy, then pretty pro again!
