  1. Hi Everyone!

    Cookieshoes:

    No way is that photo from 76, and BillyMacQ agrees with me here.

    Sorry guys, it's from 76. If anyone would know,it would be the photog: http://bradelterman.tumblr.com/post/363927360/rock-god-jimmy-page-a-post-concert-party-for-the

    Besides, don't let Bonham's outfit fool you. Sure, he wore the same thing in 73, but they all wore the same clothes over and over for years. In shots from Chicago 75 Page was wearing the same pink velvet pants he wore at several Zep shows in 69. Page even wore the same red shirt in Texas 75 that he wore at the second La 73 show, and which he also has on with Lori in one of those same 73 shots of Bonham and her. I guess they just didn't like buying new outfits.

  2. Were Opryland productions the sole filmers of the Seattle gig ?

    That's not Seattle. That's Pontiac from April 30th 1977. I remember that there was a mystery about the photo potentially being from Houston when it first showed up a long time ago, since Opryland is based in the south and did stuff throughout the region. But I believe that it was conclusively proven to be from the Pontiac show. The same camera guys are in other shots from Pontiac.

  3. I am hoping that Steve or someone else here can please clarify where this pic was taken and when...there is a difference of opinion on the photo due to Robert's attire.

    :slapface: Have exhausted myself trying to find the exact showl(?...'77)

    Thank you for anyone 's help with this!!

    Backstage at Madison Square Garden. June 10th, 1977.

    The amateur video footage of the show has both Plant and Bonham in those exact outfits. Whereas this wouldn't normally be useful, since the band frequently wore the same outfits every few nights, this is the only known show where Plant wore that shirt or those pants. So, it pretty much makes it beyond reasonable doubt definite, especially since Bonham's outfit matches too.

  4. Steve,

    What is the story behind these enigmatic photos? They're obviously video stills as we've seen a snippet of Robert & Jimmy dancing with the German Shepherd from the Stargroves or Headley Grange session attributed to Eddie Kramer.

    Are we to infer that some of the recording sessions @ Headley Grange or Stargroves were filmed? Incredible if true.

    Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    Just to further clarify, the film of Page and Plant outside on a lawn with the Stones' Recording Truck, are from Headley Grange, not Stargroves. And the engineer who was with the band at Headley for the fourth album was Andy Johns, not Eddie Kramer.

    Stargroves/Eddie Kramer was 1972. Different house, different engineer, different year. Whereas the footage you're asking about is from early 1971. I have never heard of any footage from Stargroves existing. There are lots of photos by Kramer from the sessions, though.

  5. I could be wrong here but wasn't she the lady mentioned in "Living Loving Maid"?

    No chance of that. The clip in the TRB video is definitely from 73.

    Besides, LLM is a song where the woman was supposed to be an ex. You know, the "alimony, alimony, paying your bills" line. So, an old woman wouldn't fit that anyway.

    Looks like it was just a lady in the hotel who was amazed at Plant's hair.
