  1. Yes as he states on stage in Vancouver in 75 in a Plantantion I believe
  2. Best impersonator bar none. EVERYTHING is the same. Best at his job in the world.
  3. Not saying Warner Bro's did finance it. I'm saying that they own the footage and I'm assuming have that Page footage if it was on the TRB video.
  4. Well and I assume Plant, Jones and Bonham's full video sessions I wonder who has it all, Warner Bros, Massot hid it somewhere or Peter Clifton. Considering that Page footage of him recording is on TRB I'm assuming Warner Brothers has the lot.
  5. Highly doubt it, they didn't even want to video the 12 years barely So out there is a huge reel of Page @ Plumpton messing around... Holy grail.
  6. Oh easily one of the greatest 75' performances. It really shows how the Jimmy's tone was even better than the soundboards suggest
  7. Kashmir ends after the first time the crowd hear the song "HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY FUCK" There's a novel you could write from the Montreal kids chatter lol
  8. Side q: Those shots of Jimmy at home in the Horus shirt we see during TRB, which I've always assumed is him making Ten Years Gone, who/where is that whole video Lot of pics from this session too, why the whole "lets video you producing and take a load of pics"? Maybe it was going to be inserted into TSRTS?
  9. Now that is a holy grail lol I don't think any of us have ever seen any of those have we?
  10. When I wear Zep gear over here in the UK no one notices.. They are so much bigger in the US it's untrue
  11. Well famously on the toilet but I'm assuming there's times Elvis was in such pain before that he thought that was it. Ron might be confusing 75 with the year of his death and discussing this Bill Wyman + Zep meeting. Maybe Ron didn't go along... Ron has been known to be wrong about Zep, first and foremost saying Jimmy approached him in 68' to join!
  12. On the One Show (BBC evening show), this year or last Ronnie Wood said he had the opportunity to go visit Elvis on his deathbed, Ron turning it down. And then later on in life finding out none other than Robert and Jimmy were with Elvis on his deathbed. The clip: https://youtu.be/M3IC5FDfpBg?t=1657 Now Ron MIGHT mean before he actually died in August 77. No way in hell was Robert in the USA after Oakland. Ronnie is good mates with the group, with Page I know at least.
  13. OK. Considering this is the first shot I can see on the 77' tour, I am concluding this is the FIRST shot in the public domain we have of him smoking. The Myriad - April 3, 1977 Funnily enough, it might even be one of the coolest Page pictures.
  14. So you might just be one of the first Zeppelin fans EVER.
  15. Haha so did I! GTAV got me into Waylon Jennings too. Big Log is on it aswell
  16. Wonder why it wasn't just cancelled all together,. An extra nickel.....
  17. This doesn''t add up.. Noticed prior to the gig: Date gets changed, then he still has to go back home?
  18. A family emergency forced John Paul Jones to return to England directly after the show, and the gig's start time was changed to 5:30pm. Local musician Deborah Smith played bass for the encore: "I was asked to sit in with Led Zeppelin that night by Roger Abramson, a promoter with Belkin Brothers, who saw me in the audience and knew of my musical ability, and knew that the fans in the audience had come to the concert with the reasonable expectation of hearing live electric Led Zeppelin, as opposed to an acoustic set, necessitated by the hasty exit of John Paul Jones for the trip back to England for his father's funeral service." - (D. Smith Sept. 2014) Cleveland Telegram review: Led Zeppelin concert wows Cleveland crowd If people left the Led Zeppelin concert Wednesday with any feeling short of musical ecstasy, they must have gone to be heard and not to hear. Zeppelin burned their tunes into the half-filled Public Auditorium for nearly two hours while everyone dazedly moved only with the pulse coming from the stage. They started the concert with the tunes from their first two albums that everyone has heard many times, but no one seemed to care. They just listened and worked it out in their heads. Where the early Zeppelin used noise, Jimmy Page picked and bowed his guitar as only he could, changing the noise of his old days into music that wouldn't quit. All the time lead vocalist Robert Plant wailed and moved as music was blasted to him. The surprise of the night came as Plant, Page, and bass player John Paul Jones moved out in front with their acoustic strings. With Page on the guitar, Jones on the mandolin, and Plant on the microphone, they started in on the audience with Led Zeppelin III, their yet unreleased album. They displayed an honesty only music could as they dedicated this song to a friend that had just been killed in a motorcycle accident. They finished the regular part of their concert with Jones and a far-out organ on a little known Zeppelin tune called "Thank You," then hit with "Whole Lotta Love." When they left the stage, the crowd clammered for more, not letting up until there was music once more. Zeppelin returned with John Bonham featured on drums. As the rest of the group left the stage, Bonham did everything possible to make his drums talk, plus a few things that weren't in the book. When the remaining group members returned to the stage, Jones had split to England for family reasons and Plant said that was it, but as the audience pressed to the stage, they agreed to continue. As they got set to do more, Page popped a string. To fill the gap Plant started to play his harp while Bonham started in on the tabla drums. When Page fixed his guitar, he joined in on the jam. They were then joined by a girl in a Belkin Production tee shirt (Webmaster note: Deborah Smith) who played bass to finish the night. This time they left for good, leaving Led Zeppelin burned into everyone's mind, something you don't hear every day. (-Cleveland Telegram, 8-1970)
