DO YOU REMEMBER
MAMA, WHEN I KNOCKED
UPON YOUR DOOR
I SAID, YOU HAD THE NERVE
TO TELL ME
YOU DIDN'T WANT ME NO MORE
Another wild
and
excellent show
the night after!
The band is just perfect;
everyone came to play!
Jones and Bonham play
some amazing lines behind Jimmy
in one of the best versions of
Dazed And Confused
from the tour!
During Heartbreak Hotel
many members of the audience
started some movement
and the authorities raised
the house lights
so they could check
what's going on.
The Whole Lotta Love medley
is long and wonderful
and Robert's voice is
at its most pristine
throughout this show.
The tape begins with
the first appearance of
the droning intro
before the sonic attack of
Immigrant Song
crashes into motion.
Someone near the taper
sings along with Plant
during the first verse.
Page tears through
the guitar solo as
Bonzo causes a stampede
of drums during
Heartbreaker.
Plant asks the crowd
"was anybody here last night?"
before introducing
Black Dog as a song
"about a dog who used to
boogie too much.
" There is quite a bit of
talking/shouting
coming from near the taper
between and during songs,
including someone who sings
along with Plant's "
sweet jelly roll" line.
Since I've Been Loving You
is dramatic and powerful.
Bonzo is like a tidal wave,
repeatedly crashing against the shore.
There is an argument about tickets
and seat locations near the taper
during the initial verses of
Stairway to Heaven.
The guitar solo and
final rock section are
absolutely explosive.
Prior to a beautiful
Going to California,
Plant announces
"well, twenty-three is old now,
so I gotta sit down"
before complaining about the PA.
The delicate instrumental section
before the final verse is
interrupted by someone shouting
"everybody smokin' that dope?"
very close to the taper's microphone.
That's the Way
is ruined by the talking
and random yelping
of the tapers.
If One Is Going To
Tape A Show At Least
SHUT UP !!!!
Plant dedicates
Tangerine to
"the good times."
Unfortunately,
the tape is cut after
just over a minute.
There is a cut during
the instrumental breakdown in
Bron-Y-Aur Stomp,
which includes the
first appearance of Plant's
"Stryder!"
call at the end of the song.
The lead-in to the
bow solo during
Dazed and Confused
features an excellent
driving improvisation
followed by a
great jazzy interlude,
courtesy of Bonzo.
Page is on fire
during the
frenzied guitar
solo/workout section.
Another excellent rendition of
The Crunge
is followed by
even more
high-flying guitar heroics,
even managing to
shut the tapers
up for a few minutes.
The Mars,
the Bringer of War section
is devastatingly heavy.
Page solos wildly as
Plant's chants echo
over the crowd
during the outro.
A true epic,
one of the best thus far.
Plant announces
"somebody's thrown me a capsule...
I'm gonna have to hand
this in I'm afraid"
before
What is and What Should Never Be.
He introduces Bonzo as
"our number two vocalist"
before Moby Dick.
Unfortunately,
only the intro
and outro survive.
The Everybody Needs Somebody to Love
section during
Whole Lotta Love
is a frenzied cacophony.
The medley includes
Boogie Chillen',
which Plant introduces
by saying
"I think this is the national anthem,"
Johnny Otis's
Willie and the Hand Jive,
Hello Mary Lou,
Money Honey,
Heartbreak Hotel,
during which Plant defiantly
insists that the
house lights go down,
and
John Lee Hooker's
Bottle Up and Go.
Unfortunately,
the tape is cut during
Goin' Down Slow,
ending the recording.
A truly inspired performance.
Simply A Must Hear. !!!
