The Legendary Bath Festival 6/28/70 Led Zeppelin’s “Best” Performance Anyone who ever went through any sort of Led Zeppelin phase, is familiar with the pictures of Jimmy Page wearing an overcoat and a “yokel” hat onstage. The Bath Festival has been held in quite reverence ever since they got offstage, back in 1970. The sun [...]
The ZoCrowes Were tight The Army Of Guitars Was Achieved I’m sorry I never got to see Jimmy Page and The Black Crowes (who played together recently) when they toured in 2000. I wasn’t really enamored with their album. I don’t like Chris Robinson’s voice singing Zep (I love him singing his own stuff). He [...]
It’s Not Led Zeppelin Moldejazz 2011 You will probably not like this. It’s pure, free, improvisation. Most people call it noise. Supersilent is a Norwegian avant garde improv group, that’s been around almost 15 years. This clip is from the Moldejazz Festival 2011 (just a few days ago), and features Jonesy jumping in and [...]
Unbelievable Solos From Jimmy Page Synced With Knebworth Video Today is the 32nd anniversary of the last truly virtuoso Led Zeppelin concert (in my opinion). On July 23rd and 24th Zeppelin played two gigs at the Falkoner Theater, in Copenhagen Denmark, as a warm up for the huge Knebworth shows the next month (8/4 and [...]
His Best Playing Since 1973 So Of Course Robert Quits 1998 was a banner year for Jimmy Page. He was again touring with Led Zeppelin chum, Robert Plant, and his guitar playing was crazy good. The Bizarre Festival was held in Germany, in August, and Page / Plant were there. And they killed it. As [...]
Led Zeppelin Would Be Proud You’ll Be Smiling By The End As you may know, I am fond of Led Zeppelin, and Jimmy Page in particular. I saw this mashup on Wired, actually on Underwire, and I had to post it my self. The amount of work editing this is huge, and my hat is [...]
Four Songs Soundboard Quality Led Zeppelin rehearsed for months, in preparation for their 2007 reunion, at the o2 Arena. For the first time, at least as far as I know, we can hear some of the rehearsals, and they’re awesome. There are 4 songs: Good Times Bad Times For Your Life Since I’ve Been Loving [...]
ZoCrowes Reunion 2011 Final Crowes Show In UK Jimmy Page got offstage about two hours ago, from playing with the Black Crowes on their farewell to England Tour. This video appeared on YouTube about 20 minutes ago (from post time). I act fast. Jimmy Page was supposed to launch his website today. That hasn’t happened [...]
Dave Lewis Compiled A Great Book An In Depth Look Led Zeppelin’s Last Stand I recently received a package from the UK. It was Dave Lewis’ Led Zeppelin – Feather In The Wind – Over Europe 1980. I’m listening to Bluecongo’s excellent matrix mix of Led Zeppelin’s 6/29/80 show in Zurich, as I write this. [...]
Led Zeppelin 1971 This Is A Good One Led Zeppelin is my favorite band, as you noble readers already know, I’m sure. I want to share an excellent Led Zeppelin concert from August 31, 1971. Jimmy Page and Robert Plant are still at the top of their game (Robert’s voice on the Immigrant Song [...]
Jimmypage.com Stirs Anew Mysterious Countdown, Vicar Gone Missing Take a look at jimmypage.com. After almost a year of “Coming Soon”, the home page of Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin) is adorned with an animated hourglass, with sand falling through, and a countdown in Roman numerals. How do I know it’s a countdown? I know because the [...]
The Outrider Tour Featured Jimmy Page’s Finest Playing Since 1973. This song, Emerald Eyes, is an instrumental from Jimmy Page’s Outrider album, and it really comes to life in concert. There’s 80′s cheese all over this. From the on the beat, soulless thudding of a 22 yr old Jason Bonham, to the icky tone… yes, [...]
Zoso Uber Alles Heroin Fascism Is Trés Cool Jimmy Page has done things normal people have not. Not all of it is good, but most of it is cool. If you would like to hear a solo concert from Jimmy Page’s Outrider tour, you may do so here.
Jimmy Page And Ron Wood Sound Great Together Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin) is old friends with Ron Wood (Rolling Stones), to the point of sharing Ronnie’s spouse for a time. Yes, it was the ’70′s. It was 2/13/75 in Uniondale, NY. Led Zeppelin (I believe they were some sort of sporting team. Lawn darts, I [...]
Great Pic Of The Man (and his Gibson Black Beauty) Taken By The Esteemed Dave Lewis of Tight But Loose. Jimmy Page Plays Live After 4 Years Absence I have found two videos of Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin) playing Sunshine Superman, with Donovan last week. I wrote about this the night it happened, but now [...]
Jimmy Page Plays Concert With Donovan: Now With VIDEO!!! Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin) finally played live! He reprised his 1966 performance on Donovan’s Sunshine Superman, as well as Mellow Yellow.. Donovan is having a 45th Anniversary Concert to celebrate the Pre-Sgt Pepper masterpiece. From the early Twitter reports (which is how I found out about [...]
Hello there, hominids. Yesterday in one of my Led Zeppelin forums, someone posted a link to an entire Led Zeppelin (audio) concert, on YouTube. The show is 8/31/71, Orlando, FL. It’s an excellent soundboard recording, that also captures the energy of the crowd. Jimmy Page (pbuh) is at top form, Robert Plant is still [...]
It’s been too long since I pimped Led Zeppelin. You might have heard most of these, but I imagine there are one or two that are new to you. Personally, I am not enthralled until it gets to the Presence and In Through The Out Door era. I have heard the Zep IV stuff for [...]
This is a very special Led Zeppelin show, Youdopia. This is one of the only (maybe the only) live performance of Four Sticks, and Gallows Pole. I’m talking Led Zeppelin, not the later versions played by Jimmy Page & Robert Plant, during their Page/Plant tours. You don’t much better than Zeppelin in 1971. Robert Plant’s [...]
Hallelujah, Youdopia! I just heard, through the grapevine, that Led Zeppelin is going to release their super awesome 2007 reunion concert, on Blu-Ray. I am not terribly surprised, as any of the ten trillion fan dvds show hd pro cameras all over the place. I’m proud of the boys for only fucking around for three [...]
