Led Zeppelin: When Giants Walked The Earth by Mick Wall - biography, probably more accurate than Hammer of the Gods.
What bloody eludes me in this one is that it uses a lot of energy in explaining the ins and outs of Page's magick and Crowley things but not a fuckin' word about Plant's vocal decline in the fall/ winter 72/73 prior to their biggest tour so far. How were they dealing with it individually, as a band, from the management side etc.

Celebration Day comparison between 928 & 929 (1971)
Edit:
Then skated through the first quarter of Blueberry Hill to 25.6.1977 and Kashmir

Funny, went through this one today again and also found out my old Conquering California is a couple of days before although the tin says otherwise. I’ve had the boot for a long time before this realisation. Need to check the 1st US tour stuff again on Zep boots UTube.

As many has said, these are some proper writings that show thought and care.

Going throught the timeline. Shows where a song between OTT and solo were played are (glimpsing through quickly):
June 10th: Heartbreaker
June 13th: Heartbreaker
June 21st: Heartbreaker
June 22nd: OTHAFA
All of these seem to be high on Bonzo-fan's list and I guess generally too.

This is a thread I come back to on a regular basis. One note regarding
June 21st and 22nd I think has not been highlighted here. They played a proper song in between OTT and cat strangle. That makes a significant dynamic difference to the whole show and sets these two apart from most (if not all) 77 shows.Did they do that on any other occasion?

Thanks for posting. I definitely heard a lot of compliments. Specifically heard, "Awesome"... I can't remember the last time I saw a drum solo at a concert, though.
A bit of OT is OK after OTT. Danny Carey threw in a short one at least in the latest tout from TOOL. Could have been a lot longer for me at least.

Brought up here already but the comment during OTT 28.4. 1977 was, This sucks!. Haha.
I had always wondered if the average audience was that different compared today, a ~20 min drum solo 😂, and they are all cool about it.
Well, the answer lies at about 2.05.03 exact

Just need to crack on (pun intended) with the 75 shows as they were performed.

Inspired by the fact that NQ75 had so many January 73 Dazed versions on his list I aim to listen to Southampton 73 until the end of Dazed at least. SIBLY on now.
I’ve had mixed feelings about this gig. Plant still learning his new range and Page not necessarily his tightest but the vibes at the end of the show are great and Bonzo’s been good so far during this listen.
Gonna pay attention during TSRTS and Dazed, naturally.
edit: Dazed wasn’t bad but actually OK. However, as I remembered the not yet ready San Francisco interlude is a bit like a fart in your face during you know what. Actually distracts from the whole thing if you are not careful (talking about listening here)
Bonzo still aces it.
-
Damn. Some exercise. I reckon I’ve heard 4-5 from your list. Can agree that Vienna and Seattle are pretty damn strong.
-
The Kashmir train is about to crash, haha.
-
Nice, give some feedback then if it is your cuppa or not.
edit: Pass It On from the evening show blows me away with its groove too. Much better than what they eventually canned in the studio (Straight Ahead)
-
Haha, same show as Paul there above.
-
The ascend of a lead zeppelin. Heavy stuff!
-
Damn... this sounds quite awesome when blasted properly with some added bass.

Been a lot lately… MSG 7.6.77, Providence 73, Toronto 71 for instance but now 28.4.1977 and the original Destroyer from Cleveland.
-
Cheers, I think Zep boots has a good matrix version on their channel too.
Have been using that a lot doing research and when my own CD collection is not an option.
(downloading stuff is a bit iffy as at the moment I only have my work laptop)

On the date! Also reminded me of 18.9. Anyway, this MSG concert has been growing on me for a long time... First when I heard it I was like damn Plant is off but part of that was that I expected him to do certain things and hit certain notes and he was singing around his issues avoiding stuff. Now, if you just take it as it is it ain't too bad a rock and roll vocal delivery and the playing is good as is this old bootleg. I think I haven't heard the new matrix versions but how much is there to gain?
Funny cover... from EC I guess.

I chose between RAH 70 and 73 Vienna Fireworks. Vienna won. Poor JPJ with his bad tummy.

Mr. Bonham! FFS!
The SBD version of Friends is a true gem!
What show or live song are you listening to now?
in Led Zeppelin Live
