The tape begins with an apology from Plant for a delay due to icy roads. Plant is in top form, his voice soars over the crowd in a sea of echo during Black Dog. Bonzo pounds through Since I've Been Loving You with incredible force. Plant unleashes some truly blood-curdling wails toward the end of the song. Page plays a bit of Black Country Woman before Going to California. The tape is cut toward the end of That's the Way, leaving us at the beginning of Tangerine.
The guitar solo/workout section during Dazed and Confused is amazing. After blazing through the solo, Page gets the band into a funky jam. The Crunge turns into an excellent jam on Theme from Shaft. There is a slight cut during the explosive return to the main riff. Page solos wildly during the outro, punctuated by Plant's echo-drenched grunts and moans. Plant's voice is incredibly powerful during Rock and Roll. The theramin freakout during Whole Lotta Love features a great heavy jam. The medley begins with a funky improvisation before Boogie Chillen' and a riotous rendition of Rave On!. A cut at the beginning of Hello Mary Lou leaves us at the return to the main riff. The recording ends with the first two minutes of Thank You.
The tape is quite muffled and distorted.

HA! HA HA HA! Theme From Shaft? If Robert includes the lyrics then my life will be complete.
ReplyDeleteJust imagine the golden god singing about the black private dick that's a sex machine to all the chicks.
Please tell me they go the tongue in cheek route and sing the words.
Robert's voice is in near top shape in this show. In my opinion, it's the best he's sounded since the Montreux show in August, and he'll never sounds this good again. Enjoy.
