Percys_Plant Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Wow. Nice closeup stage shot. Today seems to be a day of revealing new unseen footage from all these concerts, eh? Cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLastSpartan Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Too cool! About time some new film surfaced, and I'm glad it was Australia that surfaced! Quite a bit of film from that concert exists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) That's fantastic. I might as well speed correct this one. It runs awfully slow. Edited January 9, 2013 by ledzepfilm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ledzepfilm Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Syncing the film now. It's all from the solo of Thank You. Maybe when the whole thing surfaces I'll sync the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLastSpartan Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Finally! Is this the first time we've gotten footage of Thank You being performed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) Yes actually, if you don't count the organ solo excerpt on the official DVD. Edited January 9, 2013 by ledzepfilm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLastSpartan Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Yes actually, if you don't count the organ solo excerpt on the official DVD. I don't haha, it is just really a rehearsal and we don't have a lot of it, well i guess maybe it would count. First time of them actually performing the song itself in front of an audience I should say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, dunno why it was always in my mind that that organ solo was the soundcheck. Oh well, thanks for setting me straight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTraveller Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Great! My hometown. Love the guy in the white bubble knit hat!! Aah the 70's Aussie fashions!!! And that little shed looks like its about to crumble under the weight of all those fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Historian Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Man, I'm hoping this entire concert becomes officialy released one day. With the two songs off of the 2003 DVD, I would like to think the whole concert was filmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank You for the information provided. With the new releases and additonal footage coming next year, I sure hope they have a good bulk of 72' material included. I think that was dynamite year for live performance. Anything else from the Australia shows would be a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I knew we were getting alternate takes from songs but I had no idea about new footage. I really hope that the TV crew got more of this show. Australia was a great tour for Led Zeppelin. I'd love to see some New Zealand fotage myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie29 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 It's not the soundcheck, the band was all wearing T-shirts before the show. I was there from early in the day and they didn't open the gates until about noon, the band didn't show up until they arrived in the limos and went straight on stage as was their wont. With the exception of Bonzo they weren't wearing tshirts. They may done an earlier soundcheck but I would think it was the day before.

Reggie29 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) 1972.02.27 - Showground, Sydney, Australia Length : 6'32" Video : black & white 16mm footage Audio : TV audience recording Songs featured : Rock And Roll, Whole Lotta Love (Let's Have A Party, ending) This footage is from the ABC show GTK and was 10 minutes in length including the interview with Bonzo, JPJ and Germaine Greer etc. As I understand it, they were allowed only a small portion of the gig to be filmed, at Grant's insistance. Unfortunately the whole show was (probably) not filmed because unless it is hidden in the vaults of the ABC or hoarded by someone, it would've surfaced by now. We all know how protective Grant was of the band and if more of the show was filmed and he found about it I doubt that any would've been shown on TV at all, no doubt he'd have confiscated it all. A friend of mine who passed away some years ago filmed some of it but I don't know if any of the fan video is his or not. Maybe some footage of Auckland NZ exists out there somewhere.

TheLastSpartan Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) A comment by the uploader on the video: Two 16mm reels in 100 foot rolls, each runs 2.44. First is Ektachrome 7255, the other is Ektachrome MS (with color difference obvious). Has not yet been professionally transferred/copied. Good quality obtainable of course, at a modest monetary and time/handling expense. Edited January 9, 2013 by TheLastSpartan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
