This is an absolutely delightful 1975 Led Zeppelin concert. 2/12/75 in New York City we hear an excellent audience recording from Jerry Moore, who made a great recording. Jimmy is pretty on top of his game, broken finger notwithstanding. Robert is in great spirits, and Jonesy and Bonzo are locked in tighter than a tourniquet.

We hear Sick Again (super tight and Robert has a good time), Over the Hills (super awesome with a unique solo from Jimmy with him stretching out with some great licks). We finish up with a badass performance of Kashmir. Sounds like the Les Paul to me, too, so it's extra meaty. Jimmy has some really nice riffs and licks in this. The wings are still wet on this song, so it's nice to hear them groove around a little as they work out the final form.

I circle back to this amazing show, because in episode 249 I had the raw recording not the DADGAD remaster as I'd thought. This show fixes that and highlights this great show in all its glory.

My absolute favorite performance of In My Time of Dying, along with Nobody's Fault But Mine, and Over the Hills.

This show is so so so good.

This is one of the all time best concerts ever. Led Zeppelin at the Fillmore April 26, 1969 upgraded from a 1st VHS source. We witness the end of the telecaster era, the penultimate As Long As I Have You, an unreal How Many More Times, and the first extant performance of Whole Lotta Love, ever!

This show is perfect. It goes to eleven.

This is a show I've covered in the long long ago, but I was listening to it and wanted to share more of the brilliance from hungry young Zeppelin. January 10, 1969 at the Fillmore West. These early shows are wild and feral, from a band that is completely unknown. Zep I hasn't been released yet. No one knows anything about these guys, until they take the stage. Then it's kaboom.

I play Train Kept A Rollin' into I Can't Quit You, Killing Floor (unreal), and How Many More Times from the Mines of Moriah. We finish with a very cool Yardbird's track, For Your Love. Doesn't get much better. They even call out Keith Relf which is pretty cool.

This is a joyous scorcher of a show. Led Zeppelin in Hamburg, DE on March 11, 1970 is a rollicking yet chill performance similar to the RAH show two months prior. We hear Heartbreaker, a Since I've Been Loving You so new the wings are still wet, and a massive How Many More Time is a vehicle for a billion cool medleys. A great band at a great time in their great career. Enjoy

We listen to a new compilation of Led Zeppelin's 1977 US Tour from cmoneysmile via Led Zeppelin Boots' Channel. This is a very nice mix of the best performances from this iconic tour. I play a few tracks, Nobody's Fault, Whole Lotta Love, and some acoustic one offs. A very enjoyable listen.

We looked at this show a few years ago but I wanted to revisit Providence because it is such a kick ass show! We hear Celebration Day in which Jonesy is the star, Black Dog in which Robert's voice is like that of a god, and Since I've Been Loving You in which Jimmy is first among equals.

This is the first of three legendary nights at the Boston Tea Party on Led Zeppelin's very first tour of the states. January 23, 1969 is what we're hearing. Wild, Chaotic, almost feral is how hungry young Led Zeppelin sound. Another way to describe it is 'Holy Shit!'

I play Train Kept A'Rollin' (from the Yardbird days), As Long as I Have (w/ Fresh Garbage & Bag's Groove), and an embryonic Dazed and Confused. Incredible improvisation and musicianship are evident from the start.

This show is amazing. The sound quality is bassy with some distortion but DADGAD does a great job balancing this into a paradoxically well balanced/bass heavy recording. The music is magical and the band are locked and playing well.

Jimmy's control and technique are in top form and all the musicians are listening, and responding, to each other as they jam. Magic is a word that applies here. I play a fun and tight In My Time of Dying and the longest No Quarter on record (33 minutes!), and it's amazing!

We hear a nice Liriodendron remaster of Led Zeppelin in Frankfurt June 30, 1980, on their Tour Over Europe. This remaster brings a smoother, more professional balance to the soundboard, which makes it all the more fun to hear.

I play Trampled Underfoot, (one of the best) Achilles' Last Stand, and a fun and rollicking Whole Lotta Love. They could still deliver in 1980 and they did.
