We hear a fantastic recording of Robert Plant with one of his lesser known projects, The Priory of Brion, playing the Copredy Festival on August 11 , 2000.

This is a cover band playing beloved songs from Robert's pre-Zep days. I play This House is Not A Hotel, If I Were a Carpenter, and a haunting Darkness Darkness. A good time was had by all. Hooray!

We hear a very nice matrix of Led Zeppelin in Long Beach on March 11, 1975. The sources are the exquisite Mike Millard audience recording, coupled with the soundboard to create a truly glorious sounding concert.

I play Sick Again, Trampled Underfoot, and a sweet marathon Dazed, all of which sound fantastic. A very nice show indeed.

This week hear a gem from JEMS; a wonderful recording of Led Zeppelin at the LA Forum on May 31, 1973 (Bonzo's Birthday), from Barry Goldstein's excellent master tape.

The atmosphere is brilliant as are the performances. I play a chill and evocative No Quarter, followed by a flawless Dazed and Confused. A great upgrade!

We hear three songs from Led Zeppelin playing in Liverpool on Jan. 14, 1973. I use the second source of this show and I play a medley filled, bluesy Whole Lotta Love, a frenetic Heartbreaker, and a gut punchingly powerful performance of The Ocean (which the audience was hearing for the first time, as it'd not been released yet). Fun fun fun. Enjoy.

We finish up with the exquisite audience recording of 4/24/69 with Led Zeppelin at the Fillmore West. I play the last two unplayed songs on the recording, Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, and White Summer/Black Mountainside. Both are hungry young Zeppelin on the rise. Good stuff.

This show was a suggestion of a listener, April 24 1969 at the Fillmore West. Led Zeppelin put on a powerhouse performance captured on an incredible stereo recording. I play As Long As I Have You, Killing Floor, and an unbelievable Pat's Delight. The quality of the sound is matched by the quality of the performance. Top Tier.

We listen to a 20 minute Whole Lotta Love with a screaming theramin section, as well as a bass heavy, almost funky Communication Breakdown, from Led Zeppelin's performance in Tulsa, on August 21, 1971. This is a fantastic show with incredible interplay and energy from the audience. Not one to miss!

This is a more quiet, pastoral, episode. I play three(four) tracks from Led Zeppelin's Aug 21, 1970 concert in Tulsa, OK. It's a very nice recording and a great performance. I play That's The Way, Bron-yr-Aur, Jonesy's Organ Solo, right into Thank You, which finishes with a flourish. Very nice indeed.

We return to the well for a third time (the last 2 being 5 years ago) with Led Zeppelin in Detroit, July 13, 1973 with an amazing, blazing show.

I play a beautiful Since I've Been Loving You along with a powerful twofer of Heartbreaker into Whole Lotta Love. There's a lot of funk involved and Jimmy, Jonesy, and Bonzo are in the zone the entire time. A good one.

Led Zeppelin played the Schaefer Music Festival on July 21, 1969 in Central Park, NYC. This is early into the Les Paul days and the band were already recording their second album while on the road promoting their first.

I play the three opening numbers, back to back, Train Kept A Rollin, I Can't Quit You, Baby, and Dazed and Confused. Even though they're still making a name for themselves they're already famous. They'll keep rising throughout the decade to heights unimagined.
