Ep. 311 - Led Zeppelin Boston 1973 Joe Maloney

22 april 2025 | 40 min

Boston was always a big Led Zeppelin town, starting back at the very beginning with the marathon Tea Party gigs, through this show right here. July 20, 1973 is the last time Zeppelin played Boston. The crowd is wild at this gig, so much so that the band eliminate Misty Mountain Hop, Since I've Been Loving You, and Moby Dick from the setlist. All to keep the crowd from going Chernobyl. No encores either. I play Celebration Day, a smokin' Stairway, and a brilliant No Quarter that presages the brilliance about to be recorded in NYC a week later.

Bonus - Aerosmith Detroit 1974 FM Stereo

17 april 2025 | 30 min

This is nice stereo FM master recording of Aerosmith in Detroit on April 7, 1974, broadcast on WABX back in the day. The band is rapidly ascending to the top of Rock Mountain with Get Your Wings, the album they're supporting here. I play Mama Kin, Dream On, and Same Old Song & Dance. It's good ol' dirty rock and roll a la The Faces or The New Barbarians. Good stuff.

Ep. 310 - Robert Plant with Jimmy Page NJ 1985

14 april 2025 | 42 min

Eight days after the shambolic Live Aid reunion Jimmy Page joined Robert Plant onstage at the Brendan Byrne Arena, in East Rutherford, NJ. The contrast between the two gigs couldn't be greater. Robert's voice is virtually perfect and Jimmy's guitar (and Jimmy himself) are in tune. I play an aching beautiful Young Boy Blues from his then current Honeydrippers EP, and then I play the two encores Jimmy played with the band; the first being a standard blues number (I don't know if it has a name), and then a fiery run through of Treat Her Right, which calls back to when they jammed the same tune two years earlier. This is a great performance and a shining testimony to the viability of a Page/Plant collaboration even back then, when they sniped at each other in the press.

Ep. 309 - Page Plant Brisbane 1996

7 april 2025 | 34 min

This show, February 27, 1996, is the third to the last for Page/Plant's No Quarter tour, and it is smokin'! The band hasn't lost a step since their legendary Japanese shows of a few days prior. This is an excellent audience recording which maintains the high bar set in Japan, quality-wise. I play a ridiculously hot In The Evening, and the two encores which took the roof off the place. Black Dog and Rock and Roll. The latter two are sung with Robert Plant going alllllll out; hitting notes one doesn't expect. The band are in a great mood and the audience is locked in all the way. A great show with top of their game performances.

Bonus - Cream Dallas 1968

4 april 2025 | 32 min

This recording was liberated by the Dogs of Doom back in the day, and boy oh boy is it cool! Cream playing Dallas State Fair Music Hall just 7 months before they called it a day. The recording is rough. The bass is super loud and overloaded. The vocals are buried behind the music, but that because that's how they sounded, basically. PA systems hadn't yet been developed to keep up with cranked Marshall stacks. That would be a year later. I play a blistering Sunshine of Your Love, and and even more blistering I'm so Glad. Jack Bruce's sick bass chording during Sunshine foreshadows the evil Dio era Black Sabbath sound by more than a decade. All three of these musicians are absolute virtuosos and amazing with every measure played.

Ep. 308 - Led Zeppelin New Orleans 1973

31 mars 2025 | 40 min

This is a very nice stereo recording (AUD patched w/ SBD) remastered by Winston, of Led Zeppelin playing New Orleans on May 15, 1973. This is a fun performance which is one of the best of their May shows. I play the final trifecta of the night; Heartbreaker, Whole Lotta Love (with medleys aplenty), and Communication Breakdown. All performances are great and you will enjoy them. You will enjoy them.

Ep. 307 - Led Zeppelin Vancouver 1975

24 mars 2025 | 37 min

Led Zeppelin always seemed to bump it up a notch when touring the West Coast/PNW, and this is no exception. March 19, 1975 in Vancouver, BC is one of the better shows from this tour. I have covered this show before, but it's been almost 5 years since then, so.... fair game. I play Sick Again, Kashmir, & In My Time of Dying; all of which new songs for this tour.

Ep. 306 - Jimmy Page with Santana Frankfurt 1980 (Awesome)

16 mars 2025 | 29 min

On July 1, 1980 Santana played Frankfurt, Germany at the same venue in which Led Zeppelin played the night before. Jimmy Page hung around and attended the show, and even joined the band for a couple of tunes. What is noteworthy is how good the jams are. 1980 Jimmy can be very hit or miss. This is a hit. A hit out of the park. First of all Santana is an incredible band as is the recording (Master Soundboard) which was remastered by Dario Romero. They did a great job. I play a raucous and extremely tight Shake Your Moneymaker where Jimmy easily matches Carlos lick for lick. It's great. I then play Evil Ways which says it has Jimmy on it but I'm not too sure. Still a great performance from a great band.

Ep. 305 - Led Zeppelin Opening Night Dortmund 1980

9 mars 2025 | 40 min

June 17, 1980 is the first date in Led Zeppelin's Tour Over Europe, and on that date we find the band in Dortmund. They come out of the gate with something to prove, and they deliver. The show opens with an intense and dangerous Train Kept A Rollin' followed without a breath by Nobody's Fault But Mine, which now is truncated as the intro guitar is eliminated going right into the song. I like it. The Rain Song is perfection as it usually is with Bonzo bringing fury and bombast, which will diminish tragically as the tour progresses.

Bonus - Free 1970 Berlin Master

3 mars 2025 | 20 min

This show has been around forever in lower quality but this is transferred from the reel master. Heinz Esser is the taper of this awesome Free concert, and he also taped Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple (and more). He caught a great performance by Paul Rodgers and Co. for sure. Paul Kossof is a master of tone and technique at only 19 years old. Andy Fraser's thicc bass and Simon Kirke's tight drumming create a powerful engine, with Paul Rodgers at the controls. I play The Hunter (Zep fans will recognize this song) and Fire and Water which are both incredible.

Ep. 304 - The Firm Final Concert Seattle 1986

2 mars 2025 | 49 min

The very last time the Firm played publicly was May 28, 1986 in good ol' Seattle. Everyone in the band knew it was the end of the project, and they all play their hearts out. Paul Rodgers outdoes himself with delivery and passion. Jimmy is very upbeat and talkative. This show is really good. You know how I am at best lukewarm on the Firm, overall, but the Mean Business tour sounds streets ahead of the 1985 tour. You're going to enjoy the energy, the music, and the balls of this show. I play an incendiary Spirit of Love, a furious Midnight Moonlight, and a very heavy and dark bluesy I Just Wanna Make Love to You. Even if you're not a big Firm fan this one is the exception. Enjoy.

Ep. 303 - Page Plant Tokyo 1996

24 februari 2025 | 50 min

The 1996 Page/Plant tour of Japan has been extremely well regarded, and documented, for close to 30 years. Thanks to the fantastic audio and video captured, with the ok of the band, by Third Eye, we have a magnificent full stereo recording of February 12, 1996 in Tokyo. We hear a tender Tea for One (only ever played on this tour) with orchestra, a brilliant and bombastic Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, with a nice Stairway tease, and a supremely tight and cool af Whole Lotta Love, which contains the original, the Knebworth version, and new sections exclusive to the Page/Plant partnership. It's awesome. The whole show.

Ep. 302 - Led Zeppelin 2nd Copenhagen 1979

17 februari 2025 | 46 min

I once again revisit one of the finest Zep concerts, at least of the post 1973 era. July 24, 1979 at the Falkoner Theater in Copenhagen is absolutely brilliant concert by the biggest band in the world, playing a 1200 seat venue, as a warmup to their 200,000+ Knebworth shows the next month. I play Trampled Underfoot, In The Evening (2nd time played), and a raucous Whole Lotta Love with a new arrangement for a new era. All this in anticipation of the newly discovered live film from this show, to be released with synced sound by LedZepFilm, on 2/18/25 on his youtube channel. So cool.

Ep. 301 - Led Zeppelin Wallingford 1969

11 februari 2025 | 17 min

Only the first two songs of this show are publicly extant, and I always have love for the runt of the litter, so here we go! Led Zeppelin played Wallingford, Connecticut on August 17, 1969 and we are able to hear Train Kept A Rollin' and I Can't Quit You Baby, at least. Thank god for tapers!

Ep. 300 - Led Zeppelin Tokyo First Night 1971

4 februari 2025 | 45 min

There's a good reason I'm coming back to this show, after almost 5 years. Watchtower has released a version of this show in fantastic quality, without the noise reduction that muffled prior releases. It's also one of the best shows from one of the best years of one of the best bands around. So there's that. This is band's first night of their first Japanese tour and they're out to impress the people of Tokyo. I play a superlative Since I've Been Loving You, which you should listen to right now. I also play an exceptional Stairway to Heaven with an amazing solo, and I finish with the small acoustic set of Bron-y-Aur Stomp, That's the Way, and Going to California. The sound is fantastic as is the performance.

Ep. 299 - Led Zeppelin Vancouver 1971

27 januari 2025 | 29 min

On August 19, 1971 Led Zeppelin began their North American tour in Vancouver, BC and we have the pleasure of hearing peak Zep, thanks to an intrepid taper. Last time I touched upon this show we featured the first few songs; this time we're back for more. I play a scorching Black Dog (sung like the record), a powerful (better than the European ones, imo) Gallows Pole (on the doubleneck 12 string), and a raucous and frenzied cover of Eddie Cochran's Weekend. Each performance is pure fire, as is the rest of the show. Truly awesome.

Ep. 298 - The Firm Cleveland 1986 FM Broadcast

20 januari 2025 | 40 min

May 11, 1986 is the date The Firm played the Cleveland Colosseum for concert which was broadcast on the Westwood One Radio Network, back in the day. Thus the quality is professionally mixed stereo. The fantastic sound quality brings out the virtuosity of the band. Tony Franklin and Chris Slade are a beautifully solid rhythm section, fluid enough to let Jimmy weave in and around the beat like a dervish. I play fantastic performances (I mean it) of Prelude/Money Can't Buy, You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling, and Live In Peace. This is a really fun and enjoyable concert and I hope you liked it as much as I did. I covered this show awhile back, but after listening I decided it needed a redux.

Bonus - David Bowie And Adrian Belew Hartford 1990

14 januari 2025 | 27 min

"It's not the side effects from the cocaine. I'm thinking that it must be love" David Bowie struggled a bit in the late 80's/90's, in a comparative sense, after the stratospheric success of Let's Dance with the MTV generation. In the tour he is partnered with King Crimson/Zappa alum Adrian Belew, with whom Bowie had recorded Pretty Pink Rose (a minor hit and an awesome song). On July 23, 1990 the band played Hartford, CT. This is the show we're listening to in this bonus episode. I play Ashes to Ashes, Pretty Pink Rose, & Station to Station. It's a very high energy gig and Belew's signature sound really suits the material.

Ep. 297 - Led Zeppelin Kyoto 1972

13 januari 2025 | 34 min

Led Zeppelin played Kyoto, Japan on October 10, 1972 on their second (and last) tour of the country. This is a merge of two excellent sources, put together and speed corrected by Dario Romero. The sound is very good as is the performance. You'll like it. Where else are you gonna hear The Rain Song played with a wah wah? The band are now the biggest band in the world and were set on making sure everyone knew it. They play songs from the as yet unreleased Houses of the Holy album. I love hearing audiences hear Zep songs for the first, and this doesn't disappoint. I play The Song Remains the Same (called The Campaign at this point), The Rain Song, and an Over the Hills and Far Away in which Robert sings the original higher melody for one of, if not the last time.

Bonus - Happy Birthday Jimmy

9 januari 2025 | 60 min

I recorded this in honor of Jimmy Page's 81st birthday. I chose a selection of performances which I first think of when I think of Zeppelin, or Jimmy. I play tracks from 1969 through 1988 and every track is a banger. I hope you enjoy.

Ep. 296 - Page - Plant Madison Square Garden 1995

6 januari 2025 | 49 min

1995 was a great year for Zep fans. Jimmy Page and Robert Plant had finally reunited, and were touring with a huge ensemble including (not one, but) two orchestras, and the guitarist for the Cure.... and a hurdy gurdy. It worked out splendidly. This is October 26, 1995 at Madison Square Garden, where Jimmy and Robert played a smashing gig. I play No Quarter (Unledded version), In the Evening/Carouselambra (unreal how good it is), and an incendiary Kashmir, with real strings and not synth or mellotron. It's good stuff, people.

Ep. 295 - Led Zeppelin - Brighton 1972 Master

30 december 2024 | 44 min

December 20, 1972 at the Brighton Dome in good old Brighton, UK. This is digital transfer of the original master cassette, courtesy of KRW_Co. Being a master recording all the clarity which the recorder could capture is preserved. I play Misty Mountain Hop and a 30 minute, everything but the kitchen sink, rendition of Whole Lotta Love. So many medleys!

Ep. 294 - Page Plant Ghent 1998

26 december 2024 | 43 min

The 1998 Walking Into Everywhere Tour is a goldmine for great music. The rhythm section of Michael Lee, and Charlie Jones, had really jelled with Jimmy Page, and were a formidable force live. This show is the penultimate show of the tour, December 1, 1998 in Ghent, Belgium. I play Tangerine, Babe I'm Gonna Leave You (great work from everyone on this one), and the final encores of Ramble On and Rock and Roll. Enjoy one of the last performances of the fabled Page/Plant reunion. We shan't see their like again.

Ep. 293 - Led Zeppelin Montreux 1971

15 december 2024 | 32 min

This is one of Robert Plant's greatest shows. He's full blast and the rest of the band is right there with him. August 7, 1971 in Montreux, Switzerland right before heading the US for another amazing tour. You can't get better than 1971 Led Zeppelin, and it's so cool to hear them play Zep IV songs to an audience that had never heard them yet. I play what is possibly the first live performance of Celebration Day, an incredible Black Dog in which Robert may very well surpass his album vocals, and one of my favorite encore numbers of theirs, Eddie Cochran's Weekend.

Ep. 292 - Led Zeppelin Brussels 1972

1 december 2024 | 47 min

I've been going through a bit of a Brussels period, with 1980 and now 1972 back to back. Led Zeppelin usually played well in Brussels, and this show is no exception. May 28, 1972 has the band in fine form as I play Immigrant Song/Heartbreaker and the entire acoustic set of Going to California, That's the Way, and Bron-y-Aur Stomp. Acoustic Zeppelin is always a treat and this is no different. This show captures a transition period as they become, and then embrace being, the biggest band in the world. I covered Dazed and Whole Lotta Love years and years ago, this is another view with different songs.

Ep. 291 - Led Zeppelin Brussels 1980

24 november 2024 | 49 min

I was led to this show by a thread on Royal Orleans (a Zep fan site) in which someone wrote a brilliant essay about 1980 and how it deserves another look, as it's not all dysfunction, addiction, and flat performances. I've gotten to the point where I'd say at least half the 1980 Tour over Europe is pretty damn good, even great. June 20, 1980 the band played Brussels and they completely knocked it out of the park. It's interesting to hear Jimmy's newer 'vocabulary' in his playing. Trampled Underfoot is crazy good, Since I've Been Loving You (not often a high point on this tour) is brilliant, with some nice syncopation and interplay between Jonesy, Jimmy, and Bonzo. It's mature and intelligent and cogent. I am absolutely gobsmacked at how my 1980 bias kept me from hearing the beauty in these early 1980 shows. After SIBLY I play a rock solid version of Whole Lotta Love which brings the old and the new together in a flurry of improvisation. Lots of Jimmy/Robert back and forth. It's good. You'll like it.

Ep. 290 - Led Zeppelin Boston 1970

18 november 2024 | 39 min

We listen to a transfer of Joe Maloney's master mono reel of Led Zeppelin at the legendary Boston Garden, on Sept. 9, 1970. No surprise this is an incredible show with Robert in full power, and Jimmy, Bonzo, and Jonesy just perfectly locked in. I play Immigrant Song>Heartbreaker in all one chunk, and the mini acoustic set of That's the Way and a beautiful performance of the instrumental Bron-Y-Aur (5 years before it appeared on Physical Graffiti) also present in one chunk, to improve flow.

Ep. 289 - Led Zeppelin Liverpool 1973

11 november 2024 | 42 min

The 1973 UK tour is not to be slept on. Robert's voice is rough as he, as he always has in winter, the flu. So they cancelled and rescheduled to preserve the treasure that is Robert Plant's voice, right? Nope. He pushed himself as always and did his poor larynx no favors. This show is January 14, 1973 at the Empire in Liverpool. The show is a banger as Jimmy is ingenious, Bonzo is frenetic, and Jonesy just is. He stands rooted in the Tao while all around him is chaos. All hail Jonesy. I play Dancing Days, a ridiculous Dazed that has notes of Achilles Last Stand as well as some brilliant funk, and a rollicking Ocean, The.

Ep. 288 - Led Zeppelin Danish 1971 Compilation

4 november 2024 | 45 min

This week we listen to a compilation put together by Led Zeppelin Boots, of Copenhagen and Odense (May 4 and 5 respectively). These are shows in which Led Zeppelin truly were exception. In addition to being on top of their game, with a ridiculously powerful Robert Plant at the fore, they played Gallows Pole and Four Sticks! These songs have only been played a small handful of times, and you're going to hear these amazing rarities, along with a stellar Whole Lotta Love. It's a great time to be a Zep fan.

Ep. 287 - Led Zeppelin Physical Grafitti Unreleased Rehearsals

27 oktober 2024 | 29 min

This is an incredible tape of Led Zeppelin rehearsing at Headley Grange in preparation of their upcoming Physical Graffiti double album. From November 1973 through May 1974 the band convened at Headley Grange, the site of many a legendary recording session (Zep IV, Houses, etc) to work on their new album. The sessions were fruitful and the band was totally dialed in and focused. I play two incredible songs which haven't appeared on any album, but are incredibly badass. Along with the two almost jams, I play an early (and in my opinion superior) iteration of what would become In The Light, called Take Me Home. All of these songs are performed live in the rehearsal space of Headley Grange, with no overdubs or studio magic, and it is unreal.

Ep. 286 - Page Plant San Diego 1998 A Truly Magical Night

19 oktober 2024 | 41 min

I couldn't keep this one just to myself. It's too good. Sept. 21 1998 at the Cox Arena is San Diego is a truly magical night. Everyone is playing at 11 and they achieve that elusive synergy wherein the total equals more than the sum of their parts. In How Many More Times, I've never heard the rhythm section sound better or more locked in. Jimmy is 10/10 judged on a Zeppelin scale. He's precise, inventive, and just a demon with the bow solo, the medleys, and just overall on top of it. Better than the Bizarre Festival in my opinion. There's a brief Achilles reference played by Jimmy, a bit of Trampled Underfoot, some of the Isley Bros. It's Your Thing, all played with insane TIGHTNESS. I play Most High, a tight a modern Whole Lotta Love, and the best How Many More Times I've heard since the early 70's. I must say that Robert is an 11/10 hear both in range and in engagement. If you watch the video of this show (Dario Romero's YouTube channel) you will a borderline ecstatic Robert bouncing throughout the show. Just unreal.

Ep. 285 - Led Zeppelin Earls Court May 18 1975

13 oktober 2024 | 52 min

I find this to be my favorite of the 5 nights at Earls Court. Jimmy is playing with passion and dexterity. One of his best 1975 shows, imo. I'm playing source mix making an excellent, complete recording. These excellent audience tapes allow us to hear Tangerine with the four part harmony, unlike on the videos which only had Robert's voice. That alone makes this show pretty dang okey dokey, but I've included a white hot Over The Hills And Far Way (Jimmy is spectacular), and one of the best No Quarters I've heard in a bit. Again, Jimmy is rolling 20's throughout and sticking every landing, solo-wise. His inspiration and his dexterity were both at their best. Three songs. One great podcast. It's a good thing.

Ep. 284 - ARMS Tour Dallas - Opening Night 1983

7 oktober 2024 | 49 min

On November 28, 1983 Jimmy Page walked onstage in Dallas, Texas for his first American appearance in more than 7 years. He was newly free of the chains that heroin addiction had weighing him down, and he was working on getting back to fighting fettle. Paul Rodgers is joining him for this tour, as Steve Winwood was in the studio and couldn't reprise his Royal Albert Hall performances. We have the gestation of The Firm as Jimmy and Paul debut Midnight Moonlight, for the first live performance ever.

Ep. 283 - Led Zeppelin Winterland 69

29 september 2024 | 52 min

This is one of the canonical 'best of' shows for Led Zeppelin. April 26, 1969 at the Winterland in San Francisco is a high water mark for a band with very... high water. Robert Plant is beyond belief and the rest of the band meets that level, just run with it. I have covered this show in the long long ago, but I have not repeated any songs, so we have fresh tunes to enjoy. I play Communication Breakdown (the show opener), a How Many More Times that can't get any better, and a psychedelic cacophony which is As Long As I Have You. This is among the best of the telecaster days. You'll like it.

Bonus - Squeeze NY 1980 FM Broadcast

29 september 2024 | 19 min

This is a fun one! April 2, 1980 at My Father's Place in Roslyn, NY from an FM broadcast on WLIR. The sound and the performances are stellar. Nice, short, story songs sung impeccably... kinda in a Kinks vein. If you're like me you'll be reminded of a whole bunch of great songs that had slid over the horizon over the years, overshadowed by the fame of "Tempted". You'll enjoy this one.

Ep. 282 - Led Zeppelin St. Paul 1973 Dario Remaster

22 september 2024 | 49 min

Bonzo is the star of this show. Led Zeppelin in St. Paul, Minnesota July, 9, 1973 is a top tier NA 1973 show. Jimmy and Jonesy are on fire, but John Bonham is head and shoulders above them this night. He plays stuff I've not heard before, adding complexity to Heartbreaker and ingenuity to No Quarter and, and bombastic fire to Whole Lotta Love. The band playing at full tilt reminds one of a cheetah running at top speed in pursuit of prey. Absolute beauty and grace. I must confess, I have covered this show before (Ep. 206) but this recording is a brand new remaster by Dario Romero, and it's totally worth the repeat performance. The only repeated song is No Quarter, and it's totally worth the additional listen.

Ep. 281 - Robert Plant And Jimmy Page London 1983

15 september 2024 | 41 min

This is a good one. Robert Plant is in amazing voice with lots of oomph. Richie Hayward (from Little Feat) is killing it on drums, Robbie Blunt is a bloody virtuoso with his emotive playing. This is December 13, 1983 at the Hammersmith Odeon, on his Principle of Moments tour. Jimmy Page had four days prior finished up with the ARMS Tour, and was aflame with renewed enthusiasm for his musical future. The energy and fun the pair are having is evident. Jimmy is playing his typical 1983/84 b-bender solo but with some crunch instead of chorus. It's an amazing moment in time. These guys did not typically get along in the 1980's. I play an incendiary Burning Down One Side, and emotive and evocative Big Log, and the showstopper, Treat Her Right with Jimmy Page. What a night.

Ep. 280 - John Paul Jones Ft. Lauterdale 2000

8 september 2024 | 34 min

For this episode we hear the thunderous John Paul Jones on tour for his Zooma album, at The Fubar in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on March, 10, 2000. This is a very well recorded show for around 200 people. The sound and vibe are incredible. Jonesy is very chatty and interactive with the audience. I play Grind (from Zooma), Crackback (from the Scream for Help soundtrack), and B. Fingers (again from Zooma). Great musician and a great show.

Ep. 279 - Led Zeppelin San Diego 1973 Dadgad Sdbd.

2 september 2024 | 38 min

Today we hear some music from Led Zeppelin playing San Diego, 5/28/73, on a soundboard recording remastered by DADGAD. This show has some towering highs and tumbling low points. I play two of the highlights. First is a smokin' Since I've Been Loving You with gorgeous, smooth cooooool jazz piano from Mr. Jones, and Jimmy delivers in spades. Then I play glorious Whole Lotta Love with a trillion medleys, played with abandon and joy, like it's 1971. Some magic here for real.

Ep. 278 - Page - Plant At The Gorge 1995

25 augusti 2024 | 45 min

This is a good one! For this episode I have chosen Jimmy Page & Robert Plant on the last night of their huge Unledded US tour. May 27, 1995 at The Gorge Amphitheater in George, Washington. This is a great venue known for it's beauty, not unlike Red Rocks in Colorado. Page/Plant end their tour on a high note with tight performances in a 3rd Eye recording of insanely great quality (Millard level). I play an epic Shake My Tree sung with conviction by Robert, a Dancing Days for the ages, and Calling to You. All of these performances are out of this world and will make you glad you heard them.

Ep. 277 - Led Zeppelin Bradford 1973 1st Gen Soundboard

18 augusti 2024 | 39 min

Jan. 18, 1973 - Led Zeppelin play Bradford UK on their tour of smaller UK venues, before launching on their epic European tour, which gave us all those great shows. This show is on par with those high water marks like Vienna or Essen. I play a raucous and frenetic Whole Lotta Love with joyous medleys aplenty. The rhythm machine is in high gear here. I also play an unorthodox encore performance of the Immigrant Song.

Ep. 276 - Led Zeppelin Newcastle 1971

11 augusti 2024 | 28 min

In this episode we hear a recording of the opening date of Led Zeppelin's 1971 UK Tour, in Newcastle on November 11, 1971. This is a distant but clear and good recording, and to no one's surprise the band is in great form. I play Heartbreaker, What Is And What Should Never Be, and a frenetic Communication Breakdown. This is a great show from a great tour. Don't sleep on UK 71, there's great stuff there!

Bonus - Rolling Stones LA Forum 1975 Millard Master

10 augusti 2024 | 30 min

This is a fantastic recording of The Rolling Stones at the LA Forum, July 9, 1975. St. Michael Millard is the taper so the sound is out of this world. The Stones are also pretty darn great. This is Ronnie Wood's first tour with the Stones and he brings energy, fun, and a good bit of skill to the band. They sound revitalized. Billy Preston is with them as well, bringing a funkiness to the proceedings. I play Star, Star, Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker), and a funky Fingerprint File. A good one!

Ep. 275 - Led Zeppelin Schaefer Music Fest 1969

4 augusti 2024 | 46 min

This is a delightful recording of a confident young Zep playing The Schaefer Music Festival, Central Park, NYC, on July 21, 1969. It's from a 1st gen reel and it sounds very good to these ears. The performance is, of course, glorious. I play a frenetic proto-funky Communication Breakdown, You Shook Me which is as much Robert's as it is Jimmy's with that awesome harp playing. This song shines brightly for me. Maybe you'll like it, too. Then of course we finish strong with How Many More Times. Until Whole Lotta Love took over, this song was the vehicle for the medleys in which our boys loved to indulge. In this performance we get a teeny taste of Woody Woodpecker, You Make Feel So Young, For What It's Worth, and a salacious and dirrrrrrrty Lemon Song. It's greasy greatness.

Ep. 274 - Led Zeppelin June 23 1977 LA Millard - Goldberg Master

28 juli 2024 | 44 min

This is as legendary as legendary gets. Led Zeppelin at the LA Forum, June 23, 1977 is one of the most popular, and famous, bootleg recordings out there. The quality of Mike Millard's master recording is matched by the quality of the bands' performance. The first four songs are from the Barry Goldstein master tape, which is almost as good as Millard's. It really ties the room together, as it were. I play Nobody's Fault But Mine, a serene and sublime Ten Years Gone, and a muy fuerte Achilles' Last Stand. It's nice to hear this show with even better clarity. All thanks to the JEMS taping group for curating and preserving these precious recordings.

Ep. 273 - Page Plant Oberhausen Dec 1998

21 juli 2024 | 44 min

This is a great show! The penultimate Page/Plant gig, December 2, 1998 Oberhausen, Westphalia. Unbelievable chemistry between all band members. Jimmy Page is absolutely on fire, and super precise in his tone, and delivery. The band has never sounded better and they are ending their Walking Into Everywhere Tour with a hell of a bang. I play Heartbreaker, Walking Into Clarksdale (insane whammy work in this), and a How Many More Times for the ages.

Ep. 272 - Led Zeppelin Copenhagen 1970

14 juli 2024 | 36 min

This is a firecracker of a show recorded the month following the Royal Albert Hall gig, which is featured on the Led Zeppelin DVD. February, 28, 1970 in Copenhagen, Denmark. We have The Nobs performing, to placate the wrath of the elders of the Von Zeppelin family. Zeppelin delivers in Copenhagen, historically, and this show is now different. So, instead calling themselves Led Zeppelin, on this one night the were The Nobs. This is both in homage of promoter Claude Nobs, and play on then slang term for male genitalia, your knob. Remember they were all in their early 20's. ;-) I play an embryonic and powerful Since I've Been Loving You, a gorgeous Organ Solo/Thank You, and finish up with Bring it on Home. Great band. Great show. Great Scott!

Ep. 271 - Led Zeppelin Chicago 1973 Master

7 juli 2024 | 48 min

I play a nice show from July 7, 1973 of Led Zeppelin lighting up Chicago. Robert's voice is in rough shape, but not as bad as the night before. Jimmy and Bonzo ably pick up any slack left by Mr. Plant. I play Over the Hills and a raucous Dazed. Good stuff. Performed 51 years ago, today.

Ep. 270 - Led Zeppelin BBC 1971 Pre - Broadcast Stereo

16 juni 2024 | 42 min

This is a wonderful, clear, stereo recording of the legendary, and officially released (with a bunch of cuts and edits) April 1, 1971 performance at the Paris Theater, in London. Jonesy's fat bass sounds so good in the left channel. I play a nice punching Communication Breakdown with a very well represented hi-hat in the mix, and finally an epic Whole Lotta Love with a million well defined medleys (which aren't in the official release) like Bottle Up and Go, Mess of the Blues, and a lovely For What It's Worth. I value the complete performances as they have the juice, the magic, whereas the official release has a great Whole Lotta Love, but without all the bells and whistles which make the band magical.

Ep. 269 - Page - Plant In Sydney 1996

10 juni 2024 | 44 min

1996 was a great year for the Jimmy Page/Robert Plant partnership. After their tremendously successful 1995 Unledded tour, they both loosened and tightened up, and headed South (of the Equator) with a smaller coterie of musicians. They played Central and South America, Japan, and finally, Australia. This recording is from their February 24, 1996 in Sydney. The recording is fantastic as is the performance. I play a super chill yet elegant Since I've Been Loving You (Robert hit's that note perfectly), a raucous and percussively gorgeous Four Sticks, and we finish off the night with a brilliant and lively In The Evening, before we all drop from exhaustion. Enjoy

Ep. 268 - Led Zeppelin LA Forum March 27 1975 Millard Master

3 juni 2024 | 50 min

This is an incredible recording from Saint Mike Millard on his blessed Nakamichi, of Led Zeppelin at the LA Forum on March 27, 1975. This is one of the legendary marathon shows, running more than 3 hours, in gorgeous full stereo. This is a fresh transfer made by JEMS and lightly mastered by DADGAD. It's a keeper for sure. I play a funky Over The Hills and Far Away and glorious improvisational No Quarter for us, as a taster for the full show, which is available below. Jonesy and Bonzo are perfectly synced in this amazing recording. You'll dig it.

Ep. 267 - Led Zeppelin Toronto Rockpile Feb 1969

27 maj 2024 | 40 min

We hear Led Zeppelin playing the Rockpile in Toronto, on Feb. 2, 1969, on their first tour through North America. They conquer like Mongols as they tear across the continent, and this show is no different. I play the initial Train Kept A-Rollin' into I Can't You run, and finishes up with a cool as ice How Many More Times. This band is way better on their first big tour than many bands at their peak.

Ep. 266 - Led Zeppelin Belfast 1971

19 maj 2024 | 29 min

This show is a monster. Not only is it a 1971 show, making it great by default, it is also the first show with songs from Zep 4 (still 8 months from release), and it's also one of Robert Plant's strongest shows ever. So, it's a winner. I featured this show on Episode 127 where I played all the debut performances of Stairway, Rock and Roll, and Going to California. This time I'm playing the opening of the show with an incendiary Immigrant Song-->Heartbreaker, and the finale with a viking raid of a performance of Bring It on Home. Robert's harmonica work is brilliant on top of everything.

Ep. 265 - Page - Plant Bizarre Festival Germany 1998

12 maj 2024 | 45 min

On August 23, 1998 Jimmy Page & Robert Plant played on a "wet, miserable field" in the rain at the Bizzare Festival, in Cologne/Koln Germany. They were touring in support of Walking Into Clarksdale, which was produced/engineered by the late Steve Albini (RIP). This is a fantastic, professionally broadcast, performance and all systems are go with Jimmy on fire,and Robert's voice strong and in control. It's brilliant. I play two songs off Clarksdale and then a very cool performance of Spoonful into a frenetic Whole Lotta Love. I wrap it all up with a clip of Steve Albini talking about working with Jimmy and Robert, in an insightful, if irreverent, interview. Good stuff.

Ep. 264 - Them Crooked Vultures Las Vegas 2010

5 maj 2024 | 35 min

Them Crooked Vultures is a band with John Paul Jones, Dave Grohl, and Josh Homme and they rock. Hard. This show is from April 17, 2010 in Las Vegas, and it rocks. Hard. I play Mind Eraser, No Chaser, New Fang, and Warsaw. These men are from Led Zeppelin(!), Foo Fighters, Nirvana, and Queens of the Stone Age. Legends all. It's a great one.

Ep. 263 - Led Zeppelin Hamburg 1973 AUD - SBD Merge

28 april 2024 | 46 min

Led Zeppelin's 1973 European tour is generally considered to be the instrumental peak of the band, with Jimmy Page, John Bonham, and John Paul Jones locked in tighter than ever, and playing with breakneck speed. This performance is from Hamburg on March 21, 1973 and is a lovely remastered merge of the 2nd gen audience recording, and the clean as a whistle soundboard (Dazed, Stairway, and Whole Lotta Love only) to present a complete concert experience with best possible fidelity. All this is courtesy of the legendary dadgad. I play a sublime Since I've Been Loving You and then a Dazed and Confused which is a contender for best ever. It's brilliant. As Luis Rey says, you've heard it all before, but never this perfectly. Bonzo. Goddamn. So good. So so good.

Ep. 262 - Led Zeppelin Nassau 1972

23 april 2024 | 49 min

June 1972 is a golden month for Zep fans. Lots of great shows, including the ones which would eventually be released as How The West Was Won. This is June 15, 1972 at Nassau Colosseum and it is awesome. We hear a first gen from the AC recording and boy do those guys like to talk. I play Immigrant Song, Heartbreaker, and a Whole Lotta Love with a zillion amazing medleys.

Ep. 261 - Jimmy Page Worcester 1988 Revisit

14 april 2024 | 69 min

This show is all kinds of magickal, to me. First, I was there. Second, Jimmy Page was on fire this whole tour. Third, Robert Plant was in attendance so the band knocked it up a notch. This is October 29, 1988 and Jimmy Page is at the Worcester Centrum supporting his Outrider album. A performance of legend. I play a stellar Midnight Moonlight w/Black Mountainside, an even more amazing solo section of The Chase w/ bow solo, noise solo (short), and Dazed & Confused w/ some Walter's Walk. It's awesome. We finish up with a perfect, I mean perfect, instrumental performance of Stairway to Heaven that may make you weep. For real.

Ep. 260 - Led Zeppelin Last Night in LA 1977 Millard Master

7 april 2024 | 47 min

This a brand new transfer from Mike Millard's master cassettes themselves (not the DAT tansfer) by the laudable JEMS tape group, remastered tastefully by DADGAD. June 27, 1977. Led Zeppelin's final night of a five night run at the LA Forum. I play Sick Again (which rocks), Since I've Been Loving You, which shines in its more mature 1977 arrangement, and an adventurous Ten Years Gone in which not every landing is stuck, but the attempts are noteworthy. This is a stellar recording of really good show. Lots of magic here. Zeppelin at the Forum is not to be missed.

Ep. 259 - Jonesy At Big Ear 2024 WOW

1 april 2024 | 32 min

This is an absolute joy of a gig from John Paul Jones, who appeared at the Big Ears Music Festival in Knoxville, TN on March 22, 2024. He played all three days of the event. One night with Sons of Chipotle, one night solo (which is what I'm playing), and one night with Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth. Our boy gets around. I play a few tracks from his solo set, an isolated bass rendition of Ramble On (just a couple of minutes long), Since I've Been Loving You on the grand piano, an already legendary performance of Your Time is Gonna Come on a 1928 Wurlitzer organ, and a haunting, elegiac Down to the River to Pray, off of his solo album Zooma. This is a master class in virtuosity and humility. He's a genius and a very lovely man, who completely holds the torch for Led Zeppelin magick in this moment. Enjoy.

Ep. 258 - Led Zeppelin Knebworth Second Show

24 mars 2024 | 47 min

This episode is a request from long time friend and Patron, Other David. Second Knebworth holds a special place in his heart, and he requested I cover this show, which I happily did. We hear the last performance of No Quarter by the original 4 members, with some smooth and jazzy runs by Jimmy, and some almost chaotic chops by Jonesy. It's a unique performance, vibe-wise, and I like it. We also hear a fairly pensive Achilles Last Stand with Jimmy deep in thought during the solo, and it also has a unique vibe, which is helped by the audience recording (Galactic Messiah from EVSD). We finish up with Whole Lotta Love with the new arrangement, as well as a rollicking boogie section. Good stuff. Great Band.

Ep. 257 - Led Zeppelin NYC Feb 12 1975

21 mars 2024 | 44 min

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.

Ep. 256 - Led Zeppelin June 22 1977 DO OVER W Remastered Source

10 mars 2024 | 40 min

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.

Ep. 255 - Led Zeppelin April 26 1969 Upgrade - 1st Whole Lotta Love!

26 februari 2024 | 57 min

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.

Ep. 254 - Led Zeppelin San Francisco Jan 10 1969

19 februari 2024 | 51 min

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.

Ep. 253 - Led Zeppelin Hamburg 1970 2nd Night

12 februari 2024 | 53 min

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

Ep. 252 - Led Zeppelin New 77 Tour Compilation

5 februari 2024 | 32 min

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.

Ep. 251 - Led Zeppelin Providence 1973 SO GOOD

29 januari 2024 | 32 min

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.

Ep. 250 - Led Zeppelin Boston Tea Party 1969 1st Night

22 januari 2024 | 44 min

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.

Ep. 249 - Led Zeppelin June 22 1977 LA Forum Upgrade

15 januari 2024 | 57 min

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!

Ep. 248 - Led Zeppelin Frankfurt Lirodendron Remaster

8 januari 2024 | 46 min

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.

Ep. 247 - Led Zeppelin Vancouver 1975 New Transfer

31 december 2023 | 52 min

We hear a nice Master audience recording from Led Zeppelin from March 20, 1975 in Vancouver BC. This is a fun show with a powerful Jimmy Page, and I play In My Time Of Dying, Trampled Underfoot, and a funky, frenetic, Whole Lotta Love/Heartbreaker with a bunch of Lickin' Stick to hold it together. A delightful show.

Ep. 246 - Led Zeppelin Osaka First Night 1972

18 december 2023 | 46 min

We listen to tracks from Led Zeppelin's second tour of Japan; specifically October 4, 1972 in Osaka. Robert's voice is in the process of shifting from the high register of the early days to the lower range of the latter days (1973 and onwards), which can make for some interesting renditions. We hear Over the Hills and Far Away, and The Song Remains the Same (called the Campaign), and a boisterous Whole Lotta Love with medleys and jams for miles. Powerful show.

Ep. 245 - Led Zeppelin Vancouver 1973

11 december 2023 | 43 min

We hear Led Zeppelin in Vancouver BC July 18, 1973 in all their glory. This show is unique in that they had to stop early and take Robert to the hospital (they said) because he was tripping balls on LSD and after Stairway was done. The show is still brilliant and we hear Misty Mountain Hop-->Since I've Been Loving You, and a sublime No Quarter, as well as the announcement about Robert's condition.

Ep. 244 - Jimmy Page Hammersmith Outrider 1988

4 december 2023 | 39 min

This is a lovely low gen recording from November 25, 1988 at the Hammersmith Odeon, London, in support of Jimmy Page's Outrider album. This tour is incredible and should not be overlooked by Zep fans. Jimmy Page, John Miles, Durban LaVerde, and Jason Bonham make a tight little unit cranking out Zeppelin tunes (for the first time since 1980), Firm tunes, Death Wish 2 tunes, and even a Yardbirds tune. Best of all Jimmy was playing like it was 1973 again, with fluidity and dexterity unseen for at least a decade.

Ep. 243 - Led Zeppelin NYC June 13 1977 Three Source Merge

26 november 2023 | 68 min

We hear from Led Zeppelin's penultimate night of their 6 night run at Madison Square Garden, with a nice 3 source merge. I play Over The Hills, Going to California, and No Quarter (with a little Mary Poppins) to give a nice overview of the show. Good stuff all around. Loud and aggressive.

Ep. 242 - Led Zeppelin Brondby 1969

19 november 2023 | 36 min

This is a great recording of Led Zeppelin at Brondby DK March 15, 1969 (late show). A hungry young band plays the club with a ferocity and joy which remains unrivaled. I play Train, I Can't Quit You, and a Dazed which is reminiscent of the album version. A joy.

Ep. 241 - Led Zeppelin Seattle 1973 TMOQ Source

12 november 2023 | 46 min

We hear a tasty DADGAD remaster of the classic TMOQ vinyl of Led Zeppelin in Seattle July 17, 1973. This is a truly enjoyable audience recording and I play Since I've Been Loving You, No Quarter, and The Rain Song. Beautiful.

Ep. 240 - John Paul Jones West Hollywood 1999

6 november 2023 | 34 min

John Paul Jones at the West Hollywood House of Blues Oct 19, 1999. Unbelievable talent. Unbelievable show. Powerful performance by Jonesy and his arsenal of custom bass instruments. We hear Zooma, Grind, and Smile of Your Shadow. Just astounding the talent of this man.

Ep. 239 - Page Plant New Orleans 1998

29 oktober 2023 | 47 min

We hear a scorching Page/Plant show, professionally recorded for broadcast on Westwood One) from October 1, 1998 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Everyone is on fire and Jimmy plays like a man possessed. I play Heartbreaker, Most High, and a blazing How Many More Times with Jimmy commanding his instrument like the virtuoso he is, esp when he and Robert go into a brilliant I Can't Quit You, Baby in the middle, before jumping back into it. Really great stuff.

Ep. 238 - Jimmy Page And The Black Crowes NYC 1999

23 oktober 2023 | 36 min

We hear some rockin' raucous rock n roll with Jimmy Page & The Black Crowes at the Roseland NYC on Oct. 14, 1999. They're amazing together and I play Wiser Time, Sick Again, and Nobody's Fault But Mine, all of which benefit from the 3 guitar army wall of sound. Fantastic.

Ep. 237 - Led Zeppelin Long Beach 1975 March 12

16 oktober 2023 | 50 min

This is one of the best nights of Led Zeppelin's 1975 US tour. March 12, 1975 in Long Beach has all four cylinders blazing. We hear a fresh transfer from the 3rd Source master tapes, and they sound great! A supernal No Quarter and Heartbreaker are heard; the latter containing a rockin' I'm A Man jam. This is a magic night.

Ep. 236 - Coverdale - Page Tokyo 1993

6 oktober 2023 | 47 min

We hear a rollicking Coverdale/Page show from Dec 17, 1993 in Tokyo, and Jimmy is playing up a storm. We hear Over Now, an awesome Take A Look At Yourself, and Shake My Tree w/ Theramin solo. Good stuff is to be had. Enjoy

Ep. 235 - Led Zeppelin Tokyo Sept 24 1971

29 september 2023 | 50 min

We hear an insane Whole Lotta Love from Sept 24 1971 Tokyo, as Led Zeppelin is on their first tour of Japan. The song is 30 minutes of Rave On, You Time Is Gonna Come, I'm A Man, Hello Mary Lou, How Many More Times, and more... all within Whole Lotta Love. It's ridiculously good. Also play a groovy Communcation Breakdown. Also insane.

Ep. 234 - Robert Plant With Saving Grace Vincenza Sept 2023

22 september 2023 | 52 min

We hear a great recording of Robert Plant with Saving Grace in Vicenza, Italy from Sept 6, 2023. Robert plays four Zep songs in this show and we heart them all. I play Cuckoo (not Zep), Friends, Four Sticks, The Rain Song (beautiful!), and Gallows Pole. This is an intimate and lovely performance. Enjoy.

Bonus - Bob Dylan Costa Mesa 1988 Millard

16 september 2023 | 30 min

We hear a great Mike Millard recording of Bob Dylan on July 31, 1988 at the beginning of his Neverending Tour. This is the shirtless vest/GE Smith era, and the setlist is heavy with hits. I play Absolutely Sweet Marie, Simple Twist of Fate, and To Ramona.

Ep. 233 - Led Zeppelin More Offenburg 1973

15 september 2023 | 35 min

We hear more songs from March 24, 1973 in Offenburg, from Led Zeppelin at their musical peak. Good stuff. Over the Hills, Black Dog, The Song Remains The Same, and Heartbreaker are heard.

Ep. 232 - Led Zeppelin Offenburg 1973

8 september 2023 | 53 min

This is Led Zeppelin at their instrumental peak. March 24, 1973 Offenburg, Germany. This is the 2 source Eddie Edwards release and it is incredible. Like the Japan 1971 tour the Europe 1973 tour is a must hear for all Zep, or even classic rock, fans. We hear SIBLY and Dazed in the podcast.

Bonus - Interview With Led Zep News

5 september 2023 | 39 min

I speak again with James Cook of Led Zeppelin News about the 1970 filmed concerts, Jimmy's poppy/dragon suits, taxes, shadiness and journalism in the Zep community. Good stuff. James is wonderful and insightful, as always.

Ep. 231 - Led Zeppelin Vancouver 1971 NEW SOURCE

2 september 2023 | 34 min

A second source for Led Zeppelin Vancouver BC Aug 19, 1971 has been found, and it contains the first three songs of the show, which are missing from the existing source. Hear Immigrant Song, Heartbreaker, and Since I've Been Loving You from the brand new 2 Source Merge released hours ago. This is great!

Ep. 230 - Led Zeppelin Badgeholders John Wizardo Master

25 augusti 2023 | 52 min

This is a really brilliant DAGAD remaster of John Wizardo's master tapes of Led Zeppelin on June 23, 1977 (The legendary For Badgeholders Only show with Keith Moon) at the LA Forum. This recording is exquisite and the show and atmosphere are second to none. A good one for sure!

Ep. 229 - Led Zeppelin Fillmore East Late Show 1969

18 augusti 2023 | 36 min

We hear a few from Feb. 1, 1969 (the Late Show) at the Fillmore East, NYC. Led Zeppelin is winding up their first tour and they're winning hearts and minds with their energy and virtuosity. I play Train>I Can't Quit You and How Many More Times. Amazing band.

Ep. 228 - Led Zeppelin Copenhagen 1979 Remastered

11 augusti 2023 | 51 min

We hear a remaster of Led Zeppelin's first concert in two years, July 23, 1979 in Copenhagen, DK. The sound is stellar as is the performance. Everyone involved was eager to prove that there was still gas in the tank. A unique peek at late era Zep playing a small 1000ish capacity venue a week before playing Knebworth in front of hundreds of thousands.

Bonus - Jimmy Page - Jack Bruce And Rocket 88 Nottingham 1984

6 augusti 2023 | 36 min

This is a great professional recording of boogie woogie band Rocket 88 playing live on June 5, 1984 in Nottingham as a benefit for the recently late Alexis Korner (father of British blues and member of Rocket 88). This show features Charlie Watts, Ian Stewart, Jack Bruce, Jimmy Page, Paul Jones, Ruby Turner and many more. Super fun show with greatly improved sound.

Ep. 227 - Led Zeppelin San Diego 1975

4 augusti 2023 | 44 min

By request we hear Led Zeppelin from March 14, 1975 in San Diego, taped in excellent stereo by Mike Millard. I play fun, fiery versions of Trampled Underfoot, In My Time of Dying, and Sick Again. Good stuff, folks.

Ep. 226 - Led Zeppelin Oakland 1970

28 juli 2023 | 36 min

19 augusti 2020 | 50 min

This is a brand new Led Zeppelin soundboard recording from Jan 18, 1975, Bloomington, MN. Aside from sounding amazing it has a live performance (partial) of the Wanton Song! That song was only played a handful of times and never in soundboard quality. An amazing release liberated by The Dogs of Doom.

Bonus Episode - Genesis The Roxy 1980

16 augusti 2020 | 54 min

On May 5, 1980 Genesis played an intimate show at The Roxy, in West Hollywood, for 500 fans. Mike Millard was there to capture this amazing performance with is amazing equipment. This was part of the tour for Duke, as Genesis was transitioning from prog to more AOR pop. It's a great show.

Ep 68 - Led Zeppelin Tampa 1977

14 augusti 2020 | 46 min

Led Zeppelin played to 70,000 on June 3, 1977 but only for three songs, because a torrential thunderstorm forced them to cancel the rest of the show. It's a shame because the performances are fierce, and this would likely have been one of the great shows from this tour, had fate not intervened. We listen to The Song Remains The Same, Sick Again, and Nobody's Fault But Mine, as well as a tv announcement addressing the ensuing riot which resulted after the show was cancelled. An interesting one!

We listen to a pristine Since I've Been Loving You, and a rapturous Whole Lotta Love with complete performances of Good Times, Bad Times, How Many More Times, You Shook Me, as well as tons of rock songs in the medley. It's arguably the best Whole Lotta Love ever.

2 augusti 2020 | 62 min

Bonus Episode - Lou Reed - New York In Paris 1989

1 augusti 2020 | 54 min

A great show from Lou Reed at his 1980's peak resurgence. Every decade he renewed his relevance, and the New York album was his 1980's high water mark. June 3, 1989 Paris is the show I play, along with a bonus 2013 live performance of Cremation. Powerful.

Amazing.

3 juli 2020 | 59 min

Taken from the pre-FM reels as well as an audience source, this March 14, 1969 radio show from Stockholm Sweden delivers a fiery young Led Zeppelin. Three months in and they're already co headlining rather than opening shows. The recordings are dodgier than I typically play but still enjoyable. Thank you!

Another pristine Mike Millard master from JEMS. Aug 14, 1975 Eric Clapton with Carlos Santana, Keith Moon, and Joe Cocker. The sound on this recording is outstanding.

Bonus Quarantine Episode - Rush London 1983

24 maj 2020 | 49 min

I had a request to do an episode with a show from Rush, Signals Tour. After some research I decided on May 21, 1983 which I've read is one of the best shows of that tour.

Ep. 56 - Led Zeppelin Long Beach 1975

22 maj 2020 | 87 min

This is one of the best live recordings out there. Mike Millard's Led Zeppelin 3/11/75 is just superb. The performances are great and the audience recording sounds professional.
