3hrsoflunacy Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 No one has sung the song with Jimmy other than Robert. Jimmy played an instrumental version on most nights of this Outrider Tour in 1988, and at the ARMS shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct but Songfacts twists this to mean "Jimmy Page would not let anyone but Robert Plant sing this". IMHO if the 2008 rehearsals with Myles Kennedy had lead to a tour there's little doubt he'd have sung it at every show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixpense Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 To Jimmy STH was their band most representative song where Robert thinks KASHMIR is. I'm in the Jimmy camp. Just heard a cd of Zeppelin playing the song for the first time with drums (probably Island Studios) and they sounded excited and you can hear them saying that they want to hear the playback asap.

chillumpuffer Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 2500 of us sung this at the Manchester Apollo on the last night of the outrider tour in 1988. I have a great boot of the show and Jimmy quite rightly says we were the best audience on the tour. . Although to be fair he may have said that every night!
