EddieShouldHaveListened Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Sry if this has happened but I wanted to discover other versions of SIBLY to listen to. My favorites are from 9/29/71, 3/17/73 and 6/27/72(i think has Jimmy's best solo for the song) and I also recently listened to the Adelaide show from 72 and that has a pretty nice version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeeze My Lemons Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 i dont think there is a better performance than from TSRTS album. It may even be the best performance of any song by them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnlennon696 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Even though it is edited , the TSRTS version is still my fave i think, but the LA Forum 21st/23rd 1977 versions are also brilliant imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EzyEric Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 - TSRTS or any 73 version close to that - HTWWW - 1970-09-04 Blueberry Hill, the change of lyrics and screams robert does gives me chills every time - 1977-06-21 / 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pujols05 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 SIBLY is one of the few songs that was consistently great, tour after tour. I like 6-21-77 2-14-75 (a rare '75 performance) 6-29-80 and of course the TSRTS version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepps_apprentice Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 TSRTS HTWWW i heard this fantastic version on XM i loved it i wish i knew where it was from. i looked everywhere, BBC, conneyfogle (), everywhere it was either a really early or really late version of it. it was short.

Flyingzepp Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Definitely 6/21/77 or Vienna 73, TSRTS is a great version too obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electrophile Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 I have three favorite versions: 1. BBC Sessions 2. HTWWW 3. TSRTS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rover Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 My fav SIBLY is TSRTS, mainly because of Jimmy's playing. I suppose others favorite version may be because of Robert's performance.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EzyEric Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 9/23/71 Thanks for that one, just listened now. Professionally recorded had its advantages and this is very much a factor in my decision on TSRTS. I really do consider that version perfect guitar wise though too.

NickZepp Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 The official releases were far from the best versions of the song. Of the official releases I would take HTWWW. But that's the best performance of those officially released. SIBLY to me is a barometer of Zeppelin's best concerts. If Zeppelin were at their best this song was at it's best. They didn't play it every show of course especially the later years. I think they took it out in some 77 shows and most of 75. But there's still some real solid versions throughout even those years. Here's some of my favorites and if you notice they are also some of the most known Zeppelin shows 08-15-70 Yale 09-02-70 Oakland 09-04-70 The Forum 09-14-71 Berkley 09-23-71 Tokyo 09-29-71 Osaka 02-29-72 Brisbane 06-19-72 Seattle 10-02-72 Tokyo 01-22-73 Southampton 03-16-73 Vienna 05-13-73 Mobile 07-06-73 Chicago 02-14-75 New York 03-27-75 The Forum 06-21-77 The Forum 06-23-77 The Forum There's a few after this time that are okay but that's a good enough list.

nick2632 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Any 73' version is best with so much enthusiasm, but 80' versions are pretty good too! They mixed a little bit of the solo from Tea For One in it. I haven't yet given Zeppelin 77' the proper respect it deserves, but I'm sure it was great then too.

Bags_Groove Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Surprised that the 1970-03-21 Vancouver version hasn't been mentioned yet. The combination of Robert's Amazing Vocals (The heights he reaches here rival that of 1969-04-27), the early lyrics ("I Said You're gonna be at my side, baby, Till the day I die." --> Fuckin' Shivers!) and Jone's charismatic organ work (he somehow manages to outshine Page's guitar solo) definitely make it a worthy candidate for one of the best. I know some may say I'm biased to like this one better because it was recorded in my hometown (I also firmly believe that the best version ever of "We're Gonna Groove" came from the 1970-03-21 soundboard tape too) but I can't think of another version that made me feel as emotional and inspired at the vancouver version of this song. In my opinion, it encompasses the pinnacle of Zeppelin's abilities, especially during what many fans consider to be their very-best year.

Dirty Work Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 (edited) 3/21/70 3/7/70 8/31/71 9/29/71 HTWWW 2/14/75 surprises me how good it is every time, I honestly think 3/21's version won't be as good, soundboard vs soundboard Lots of '77 versions are good of this song, my favorites are the landover versions or the LA runs SIBLYS. They pulled off great SIBLYs at all 4 1979 gigs. Must haves. edit: my favorite SIBLY is probably the 5/30/77 version, switching to the 5/22/77 version at the beginning of Jimmy's solo. Just not to be technical. Edited April 18, 2017 by Dirty Work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geisha78 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Hmm. I've always felt the ones from the 1972 USA tour were the best. Most of the recordings from that tour aren't great but hot musically and I think SIBLY was at its peak here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also love the 4/28/77 version. Obviously Jimmy isn't 72/73 Jimmy... but the 77 versions are EPIC, GRAND performances. The 2nd night in Cleveland is spectacular (Bonzo is REALLY, REALLY good).

IpMan Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 That is a really hard choice because for me there are two completely different versions of this song. The version where Jones plays Hammond and the version where he plays grand piano and the two sound, and are approached very differently by the band. Some of Jones piano work in those latter versions is brilliant and he works as a co-soloist against Page. However the versions on Hammond are typically more haunting. Tough call...too tough.

paul carruthers Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I don't remember the exact date--I think it's 9/9/71; I have it saved on youtube somewhere. Blistering version, as well as HTWWW and BBC Sessions. Also, a honorable mention for the August 4th Knebworth version... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
