Royal Albert Hall 1970 How Many More Times , My fav, but maybe not Jimmys best, BBC Sessions Thank You is prob his best for me,

[JPJ = the groovinator]

Why nothing from 1972? That was Zeppelin's best year imo.

I'll just say Since I've Been Loving - Long Beach Arena '72

[TheStairwayRemainsTheSame]

White Summer, absolute domination.

[Geezer]

For me:

1. No Quarter TSRTS

2. Stairway TSRTS

3. Thank You BBC Sessions

I'm going with No Quarter TSRTS.

I second that...brilliantly executed solo in every way (the solo itself is pretty much from the 28th). It is this solo that made me such a live "No Quarter" freak, determined to seek out every single fucking version there is, good, bad or indifferent.

BBC Sessions Thank You is prob his best for me,

FUCK, I missed it But I have to admit that this cover is better than the original.

[TheStairwayRemainsTheSame]

Yes this. It IS his best no doubt, also it seems more powerful because this was pure improv by Jimmy!

[Geezer]

I will never agree that it was a pure improvisation. I'll say the same for the solos on Stairway to Heaven TSRTS and No Quarter TSRTS. Jimmy was having a hard time writing/learning those solos prior to performing them.

Thank You BBC is great but this is picturesque

How The West Was Won is the greatest album ever because Page is playing on a whole different level for those performances. He totally dominates escpicially on Heartbreaker, Dazed And Confused and Whole Lotta Love. But that version of Stairway To Heaven gives me goosebumps. So I'll go with HTWWW Stairway as #1. No Quarter from TSRTS is also exceptional. Also I played all the links you've all posted at once and cause my internet sucks only the BBC one played all the way through without delay so the others stopping and loading made them phase in and out. It sounded really intentional like it was going in and out of solos. Like I was being rocked by 10 Jimmy Pages at once. lol

The Stairway solo from Seattle '77 is surprisingly brilliant.

[Geezer]

UP .

[Black-Dog]

What about the Mannheim 1980 SIBLY solo?

[Sagittarius Rising]

What about the Mannheim 1980 SIBLY solo?

That is funky...Mannheim 1980 paired with the video from Knebworth 1979. Reminds me of an old kung fu movie.

[DragonTelecaster]

SIBLY on the '95 Page & Plant (No Quarter) DVD.

Thank You from Orlando 71.
