Always liked that song. For many years I thought it was Blood Sweat and Tears. -

Why DOESN'T Pagey Do Something?
John M replied to in_the_evening's topic in Pre / Post-Zeppelin Forum
I looked it up. Outrider was at the height of Zeppelin mania post 1980 in the US. It hit #26 on the US album charts and sold 500,000 copies in the US. OK, but not great. I recall those days. There was a voracious appetite for anything Zeppelin, but apparently not for a solo album. They had their debacles at Live Aid and Atlantic 40th of course, and Page toured with Jason for Outrider. Coverdale Page hit #5 and sold 1,000,000 in the US, and that was also a big time for Zeppelin. The Firm reached #17 and sold 500,000 in the US. Big tour in the US. Mean Business reached only #22 in the US. Death Wish II - right after the end of Zeppelin and around the time of Coda, reached #50 on the US charts. And those were all before streaming services and YouTube. -
Really enjoying the acoustic set. That bass !! I do wish they had done the full Black Country Woman on that tour, with the harmonica. They were killing it on that tune in 1977 including Plant hamming it up with his "Elvis" vocals. A second harmonica spot in the 1977 set would have been nice.

Steve, this new mix brings out more Jones, and more Jones is always a good thing. Thanks again for all you do.

When rock and roll lived it had a name ... Led Zeppelin
John M replied to SK1's topic in Led Zeppelin Newbies
In addition to what others have noted above, I don't see how this could have been in the 70s. Zeppelin released an album in 1979 that was on the charts for most of the fall that year (and all over the radio throughout 1980). They toured in 1980 with scheduled dates in the US in fall 1980. So unless the poster meant to say that Zeppelin in 1979 was not rock and roll, I can't figure out how this could possibly make any sense. -
I wish there was one complete audio release. It was frustrating that this track was only on the DVD. I don't think it is on any audio release? Great version. Should have been on the first audio release.

Video guide to the Zep live catalog
John M replied to TheChartGuy's topic in Led Zeppelin Master Forum
If you want to do a complete review of their live catalog you should include the DVD, which has essential live recordings not found on the other releases. A review of live Zeppelin should include Royal Albert Hall, Danish TV, Earls Court and Knebworth. As for the No Quarter Page/Plant Unledded project, it has some fantastic versions on Zeppelin songs, but it is not Led Zeppelin. -
sounds amazing - as usual ! Thanks for the heads up.

What Are You Listening To At This Moment?
John M replied to The Pagemeister's topic in Other Bands / Music
I can remember the day my older brother brought this album home. It had barely sunk in yet that the Beatles had broken up. At the time I had not heard Zeppelin. I was into my brother 's Beatles and Creedence albums and singles. At the time I think my favorite song was Get Back. -
I did not see Zeppelin until 1977. I would really like to have seen one of the early shows when they were just breaking out. A small venue with a responsive audience. The underground scene. So given that I would say Boston Tea Party in May 1969. They were really gelling as a live unit after a lot of touring, and their reputation was just starting to grow.

On Coda, the transition from the frenetic ending of Poor Tom to the vocal opening of I Can't Quit You is amazing. That is some Page sequencing magic there.

Superb! Always great to see more than one band member in a stage photo. Thanks for posting.
