Led Zeppelin : Madison Square Garden Four Blocks In The Snow 02/12/75





HER STYLE IS NEW

BUT THE FACE 

IS THE SAME

AS IT WAS SO LONG AGO


 This is definitely one of

 the best shows of 1975. 

The jamming is

 very heavy 

and powerful! 

Everyone is on point and 

seems like they are

 having a blast, 

Just like they always do

 at the Garden!!!!!

 Enjoy this show people!!!!!

The band's third 
and final night at 
Madison Square Garden
 begins with a
 brief soundcheck,
even Plant attempts 
to warm up 
his sore voice. 
Page blazes through 
the guitar solo 
near the end of 
Sick Again
As the song ends, 
Plant tells the crowd
 "we came four blocks in the snow to get here," 
adding
 "isn't it good though, it snows?...
 doesn't it change the vibe of the city?... 
I think it's great."
 In My Time of Dying
 is excellent. 
The band is on fire during 
The Song Remains the Same
Page shreds wildly through 
the guitar solos
 with amazing precision
 as Bonzo and Jones 
race along at top speed. 
The Rain Song
 is absolutely fantastic, 
one of the best
 in recent memory.
Kashmir
 sounds like an army 
marching into battle.
 A mesmerizing performance,
 the best thus far. 
No Quarter 
is introduced as featuring
 "the impeccably clean fingernails
 of John Paul Jones... 
the man who made 
Monty Python's Flying Circus a flop
 in New York."
 Page delivers a dramatically 
erratic guitar solo. 
Jones somehow ends up 
in a different key
 at the end of the 
instrumental section. 
As the song ends, 
Plant tells the crowd
 "I told you we intend
 to have a good time."
 Page shreds frantically through 
the guitar solo during 
Trampled Underfoot
Before 
Moby Dick
Plant announces 
"ladies and gentlemen, 
at this point in the evening
 we wanna feature one of the
 finest percussionists 
that Led Zeppelin's ever had... 
the bowler-hatted wonder... 
the man who made 
constipation passé,
 John Bonham!"
Dazed and Confused
 is introduced as 
"the immaculate conception."
 Page's fingers get a bit sticky
 during the lead-in
 to the bow solo.
 The San Francisco interlude
 is brilliant. 
After blazing through an
 explosive entrance
 to the 
guitar solo/workout section, 
Page breaks a string, 
leaving Plant to improvise
 a brief vocal solo. 
The instrumental machinery
 is in full-swing,
 led by Page's wild soloing. 
 The epic journey reaches its climax 
with the phenomenal outro jam. 
A truly mind-blowing performance, 
one of the best thus far.
Page tears through
 the guitar solo during 
Black Dog
Plant hints at
 You Shook Me 
before the show-closing 
Heartbreaker
The walls of the arena quake 
under the power of Bonzo's 
thunderous fills during 
the initial verses.
 The a cappella solo
 is followed by an
 impromptu rendition of 
That's All Right
Page shreds through 
the frenzied guitar solo section. 
As the band leaves the stage, 
Plant announces
 "ladies and gentlemen of New York,
 you're too much... 
and we ain't so bad ourselves." 
An unbelievable performance. 
A Must Hear !!!
The tape is an outstanding matrix 
of audience 
and 
soundboard recordings, 
fit for an official release.
