RoyHarper Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I'm new to this whole bootleg business but perhaps the biggest surprise to me has been what a monster Thank You evidently was in concert. I didn't think the BBC Sessions version could be topped but so far I'd say Montreux 3/7/70, Blueberry Hill 9/4/70 and Southampton 1/22/73 (of all shows) are in the same league. Are there any other recommended versions I should check out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porgie66 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I love that version so much I did a video of Bonham's drum part on that recording. The interaction between him and Page is incredible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're interested , I'm part of a YouTube Zep cover band called People's Front Of Zeppelin. Have a look, I think you'll dig it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticks of Fire Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Boston 1971. The final couple minutes are epic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnOsbourne Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 The final version ever on 7-29-73 in NY is fantastic. And of course the 9-29-71 Osaka version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZepHead315 Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 LA 8/21/71 is a monster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My all-time favourite Black Dog, and probably the very best recording for appreciating Bonzo (sonically-speaking, combined with performance).

White Phone Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 LA 6/3/73 is also one of the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
June72 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Osaka 9/29/71, 9/19/70 (evening show), 6/19/72, 6/25/72, 3/7/70 all come to mind as some pretty great versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Only Way To Fly Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I've always been partial to TY from Blueberry Hill. I love being able to hear Plant hammer on that tambourine throughout the song. Minds eye - I'm right there front row center. Thank You indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Work Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Orlando '71 is pure tight but loose Jimmy and Bonham going at it. Beautiful. One of my favorite Jimmy moments. The BBC '71 is a close second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
