just to clarify i was kidding my boot doesn't run slow check out this version its killer.

Try this version its a bit slower than most live versions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIvCShIp9FU

I always liked the version from the night after in Frankfurt. (6/30/1980) Seems like they slowed it down a bit from the usual hyperspeed live versions. Maybe its just my boot runs slow lol? Anyways it sounds awesome.

One of their more under-appreciated tracks.

Yea. Hard to understand why he made the switch though, the Fender Jazz bass had such good tone.

Correct. From the Led Zeppelin 2 Wikipedia entry: Led Zeppelin II has been cited by music writers as a blueprint for heavy metal bands that followed it.[9][32] Blues-derived songs like "Whole Lotta Love", "Heartbreaker", "The Lemon Song", "Moby Dick", and "Bring It On Home" have been seen as representing standards of the genre, where the guitar-based riff (rather than vocal chorus or verses) defines the song and provides the key hook.[5] Such arrangements and emphasis were at the time atypical in popular music.[9]

Since the original poster thinks 73 was JPJs weakest year, I was giving reasons this may be. I personally think JPJ was the most consistent of the group.

and this from the 'Physical Graffiti' entry: "It took a long time for this album (Physical Graffiti) mainly because when we originally went in to record it, John Paul Jones wasn't well and we had to cancel the time... everything got messed up. It took three months to sort the situation out."[5] However, according to Led Zeppelin archivist Dave Lewis: "It later emerged that Jones had wanted to quit the band and take up a position as choirmaster at Winchester Cathedral. [Manager] Peter Grant urged caution, suggesting that Jones was overwrought from the incessant touring and should take a rest from Zeppelin for a few weeks. Jones changed his mind and sessions resumed at Headley Grange after the Christmas holidays."[4]

Wasn't he actually contemplating leaving after the 73 US tour to be a choirmaster or something? This is from his Wikipedia entry: However, following exhausting tours and extended periods of time away from his family, by late 1973 Jones was beginning to show signs of disillusionment. He considered quitting Led Zeppelin to spend more time with his family, but was talked into returning by the band's manager, Peter Grant.[33] Jones later explained his reservations: I didn't want to harm the group, but I didn't want my family to fall apart either. We toured a huge amount in those early days. We were all very tired and under pressure and it just came to a head. When I first joined the band, I didn't think it would go on for that long, two or three years perhaps, and then I'd carry on with my career as a musician and doing movie music.[14]

I will add the Alembics bass can sound rather unpleasant at times. 6/20/1980 comes to mind.

Go figure I really like Hot Dog lol. Its fun as hell to play on guitar. btw I was having problems using quote function, paste, videos, etc. I just installed Google Chrome and its working fine now hope that helps.

9/19/1970 (evening show) Whole Lotta Love (inc. Boogie Chillen', Dust My Broom, Truckin' Little Mama, Bottle Up and Go, Lawdy Miss Clawdy, Cinnamon Girl, Some Other Guy, Train Kept a Rollin, I'm a King Bee, Baby Don't You Want to Go, Honey Bee, CC Rider, The Lemon Song)/Out on the Tiles/Communication Breakdown (ft.

Cadillac, Blueberry Hill) Here is the setlist from the final hour of the show I posted about a month ago. I actually forgot to include Gallows Pole, Truckin Little Mama and Honey Bee.

I have heard a few different versions, usually pretty similar to my ears. Here is a review of the version I own. According to CMR, its as good as definitive. http://www.collectorsmusicreviews.com/led-zeppelin/led-zeppelin-one-more-for-the-road-boogie-mama/

lol you guys can like it if you want, ive listened to it plenty of times over the years, the keyboards sound so cheesy and dated. like a bad ELP outtake or something.

Agree with strider and Bly, if the sound quality was better this would be mentioned among the definitive Zep shows.

Because Carouselambra is on it. What a mess.

Yes! A fellow 9/19/1970 enthusiast! (Check my avatar, btw)

Carouselambra. Yuck.
