That's not it. This documentary aired back in the 90's.

I remember years ago on PBS there this awesome documentary on the history of the blues. It started from the early beginnings to all the famous blues guys like Howling Wolf and ended with live footage of Zeppelin (from TSRTS) to show how much the blues had changed over the years. Cannot find it on YouTube. Anyone remember this and if so, what was the name of it? Thanks.

I have no clue who hooked me up on here, but I was introduced to a gentleman through email that won the lottery. He was very cool and made a deal that if I paid for his plane ticket, he would sell his other ticket at face value. It was an easy yes (paid around $1100 for his ticket and the concert ticket). One of the best weeks of my life and such an amazing night. I remember all week wondering what the setlist would be. Thanks again to whoever helped me out.

No word yet for a public release?

I think Celebration Day blows it out of the water. Just my opinion.
I think the audio of TSRTS is very good, but Moby Dick could have been left out, or shortened mightily. Same for Dazed, though less so.
Shorten Dazed? That's the highlight of the movie. I was at the O2 show and as great as it was, It was nothing compared to the 73 show. The MSG show was the real Led Zeppelin in its prime.

As far as concert films go, it's probably one of the worst.
It's my all-time fave concert movie, but it's funny how obvious which parts are live and which ones are from Shepperton studios now. Probably watched it at least 50 times since 1988. Just love it!

I have listened to both of these albums at least a thousand times and I do not hear a double bass drum at all. There may be a rehearsal tape or studio outtake with him using the double bass drum, but I think Jimmy Page quickly sussed out that it wasn't needed and told Bonham to ditch it, and what made it onto the actual Led Zeppelin and Led Zeppelin II albums is all single bass drum kit action.
What you hear on "Good Times Bad Times" is Bonham's incredibly quick right foot.
That's what I always thought too. He had a :rabbit foot".

I love 10 pods. Could be used in a movie. Very emotional imo.
-
I know the band quickly had him dispose of the double bass drum after using one for a few live shows. Did he use them though on the first two albums before he did this? Very curious (esp. on GTBT)

Thanks as usual.

Steve, was just watching the beginning of TSRTS. Who is third guy with a gun that enters the car with Richard Cole and Peter Grant?
-
Seems like they used an old copy though. My DVDs have a better picture than this. Still pretty cool.
-
No thanks.
-
Now that I am thinking about it. They never mention Neil Peart in this doc. Weird to me.
-
I really enjoyed watching this tonight. They interview many modern day and legendary drummers and of course there is a special segment on Bonzo. Hearing greats like Chad Smith and Stewart Copeland rave about him is awesome. There are some clips from TSRTS too. Check it out!

Watched the second episode last night and it was very entertaining. Started with a pic of Jimmy with a cig in his mouth from Oakland '77. Throughout the episode they interview famous photographers like Neal Preston, Ross Halfin, and Scarlett Page (for a few seconds). Other Zep photos shown were Jimmy at MSG '77, his guitar army from Oakland '77, and a pic of Robert talking to Peter Grant from Knebworth '79. Most of the episode is about iconic rock photos and how they were set up and taken (Example/the famous Johnny Cash giving the Warden the finger photo). The one pic they did not show unless I missed it was the infamous Jimmy and Robert pic from 1977 at MSG. Btw, they talk about the famous "Only use flashes for the first three songs" rule started by Rush due to Ross being "an ass". It was basically adopted by most bands after that. Too funny!

Any 75 or 77 Zep show as long as they played my fave song, Trampled Under Foot.

Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce, Pete Townshend, and Keith Richards were pretty dismissive of Zeppelin. Ironic as their band members seemed either fine with Zep or were good friends with Zep. Clapton was of course friends with Page, all of The Who except for Townshend were friends with Zep, and the other Stones were also friendly with Zep.
Regarding the Beatles, McCartney, Harrison, and Ringo were all friends of Zep and Harrison & Ringo in particular hung out with the Zep boys frequently. Never heard anything from Lennon regarding Zep one way or the other.

Zep IV is the only album where every song was played live at least once. That's it.

I see what you mean. Thanks.
