This has to be the greatest opening guitar solo ever

not just led zep's peak. This performance is the exact moment in time that human culture peaked.

Each member of Zep was the best at what they did. But their true gift was how well they played together and complemented each other. Best rock group ever!

This is one of my favourite pieces of live music, ever.

That performance was mesmerizing as shown from the crowd reactions lol imagine the goosebumps in MSG

It’s not just how good they are individually. You put your finger on it, the musicianship. The way they support each other is second to none.

JPJ was playing bass with foot pedals, Bonhams a beautifully emotional player

Bonzo pushes and pulls the timing of the song - in many live Led Zeppelin songs - at various points - Bonham plays behind the beat, on top of the beat and even behind the beat. He was amazing ! ❤

One of the greatest live performances of all time. No auto-tune, pitch correction and analogue! I've seen men cry, listening to this song. GOAT.

Even the cop is mesmerized 😂

People think of Zeppelin as only a hard rock band, but these boys could play the blues at a whole different level. Classic…period.

Hi .. I was at that concert way back in 73 Sitting in the 9th row center orchestra . 16 at the time , now 64 . I've been to Many rock concert at MSG since them . Just about all the big names. No band , not even The Who came close to playing with so Much soul & stage presence as Led Zeppelin. ZEPPELIN The Greatest Band Ever!! Trust me I was there .

As you know I was there in 73, now Dazed and confused, BOHNAM ROCKS IT

One of my favourite Led Zep songs - epic. Every part of this song is incredible - the vocals, guitar, drums, JPJ on keys. John Bonham is such a musical guy - follows every instrument and adds to the essence of the part. That’s why they disbanded when he died. The most epic song from this series of concerts at Madison Square Garden is NO QUARTER - it is EPIC!!!!!!

God, Page's guitar tone. Astounding.

The Page/Plant synchronization is otherworldly John Paul and Bohnem’s playing is just in the pocket. So much love for them!

I saw them play in 1973. It's hard to find words to describe the experience. Their music seemed to be coming from another plane of existence. Easily one of the best shows I've ever been to.

one word..EPIC..

I saw Deep Purple for my first concert when I was in 8th grade. I was lucky enough my brother his gal let me and my gf tag along. We started off with a couple of beers in his 70 GTO and picked up the ladies. The concert blew my mind. The atmosphere was exactly the same and it was a sea of lighters. It was truly a magical time and unless you were there, you can't explain how great it was.

My spine tingles every time in that guitar solo.

The gorgeous dark skinned girl with the scarf towards the end was Robert Plante's wife, Maureen Wilson!

Wouldn't it be amazing if we could go back in time ? If we could go back in time for 24 hours, I'd somehow get tickets and go to see Led Zep at MSG... Andrew, if you get a chance, would love to hear your reaction to Jason Bonham, playing Kashmir at the Celebration Day concert. To my untrained ear, he seems to really do his father's memory proud. Would also love to hear your thoughts on Bonham senior's drums for In My Time Of Dying...

If you want to hear the "Peak of their Powers" check out the two live shows from " How The West Was Won" . Both hand picked by Jimmy. both in 1972.

I was fortunate to see Zeppelin 5 times and i was knackered just watching them, how Bonzo did it nearly every night when on tour astounds me.

I saw them at Earl's Court. I was 18 or 19 . Loved it but now I seem to admire them even more. Fantastic reaction by this kiwi gentleman as well

Funny yeah this video footage was a bit out of sync on the 1st VHS and DVD release but was finally fixed in the Collectors edition and blu-ray. This is one of my favorite live songs every!!! Love your reactions Andrew!! Much love from me here in the United States!! Well kinda United States.

Look at there confidence there movements to every beat there look there presence the best on stage band

This is my favorite live performance, the passion & soul they all put into it, & how amazing the video & sound is for 1973. This live is so much better then the studio version, I watch this at least once a day, it relaxes me.

Formed in 1968. By This time (73) they had recorded and released 5 albums while touring almost constantly. Yeh, this was kind of their live peak, though they'd been on it for a number of years and went on to put out some of their best tracks after this. They also played their biggest dates live at Knebworth years after this, and those shows were still pretty incredible.

I bet that I saw The Song Remains the Same at the midnight movie In My Hometown Back In the late seventies a hundred times. And it never gets old...Ever. And this has got to be the best song out of the bunch besides the middle part of whole lot of love

10:54 Satisfaction for all. This is a master at his craft. Jimmy (all of them really) can pull so much... I don't really know how to even say it. It's just amazing watching him make that piece of wood, strings, and some electronics feel happy and melancholy at the same time. And he does it so effortlessly. I can't even put into proper words what 10:54 is. I'm just amiss at this point.

Saw them in Glasgow in 1972. My mind was indeed blown.

IMO this is by far the most impressive drum performance Bonham did. In a very packed field of excellence. But the way he totally drove this was epic.

Saw Zep twice. One of the best was when John Bonham went into his solo during Moby Dick. The front part of the stage parted and JB's riser rolled through the gap to the front of the audience during his solo. It was epic!

Ooooooo Jimmy, thank you for playing the guitar. That was unbelievably beautiful

Your reaction to the crowd and the cop was as much fun as your reaction to Zeppelin!

I saw them in 72 and John Bonham gave me his drumsticks after the show

The bands was started from the ashes of the Yardbirds which originally featured Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck. Jimmy Page was a premier studio musician in great demand and workloads. After Beck burned out with a nervous breakdown on tour in the US, Jimmy inherited the band and once they broke up, he recruited his studio buddy, John Paul Jones who he also knew as a great musician. Finding Plant who lead Bonham was a script written by God.

This is Superb Live sound quality.! U cant get No better than that..

I paid to see this movie 21 times as a middle schooler. The audio & visual are a millisecond or two off on a lot of the footage in this concert, hey it was the early 70's, everyone was stoned.

Intense. I was only14 then and it was so frustrating not to be able see them. This was definitely their peak

The bands peak was ‘73, Plants ‘72. He developed nodes late 72 and was never able to sing the same again. A lot of 73 was ragged for Plant, like 75. But 73 his voice was still younger and when warmed up, like here, had a nice rasp. Very Janis Joplin. Very much physically Graffiti voice (one of my faves) . 73 represented 5 years of consistent touring for the band

You have to listen to No Quarter from the same concert John Paul is doing a keyboard solo and John Bonham puts in a drum fill that will blow your mind And the older sister song to Since I've been loving you is Tea For One the drums in that are spectacular

Thanks for this one, it was fun to watch! Your comments are lovely. I especially love your comments about the cop. 😂 He looked stunned for sure....might have been the air that he was breathing at a LZ concert in those days. 😎 Love it!

And my favorite part was your reaction to what you said was your favorite part: the imitation of the gobsmacked cop! Hahaha! Enjoy your content - thanks!

You really should listen to the studio version. It's a perfect blues rock song. And you can hear the the squeaky bass pedal.

Thanks for more Led Zeppelin ❤

MSG, their best recorded live performance in my opinion.

The call and response between Jimmy and Robert...f*ck yeah. Enjoy your videos btw Andrew! Fun to watch.

JPJ played the bass foot pedals! Also, when he went to the acoustic set with his triple-necked guitar!

1971 was the bands peak by far. This was the year they released arguably their best album. Plant's voice was in near perfect condition singing just like on the studio. Page was amazing this year and only got better the following couple of years. As a whole this was the bands best year imo

At about 3:58 you made an interesting comment: "sitting down". Yes, in the late 60's and early 70's we sat down and listened.

When Bohnam died in 1980 Jimmy Page said they’d never reunite unless there was a Bohnam on the drums . Well it took a while but we got Celebration Day ! The last time I played a session where I was doing 12/8 blues my drummer quit !

I used to listen to this track a lot as a teenager. Never knew what to do with myself afterwards i would be wrung out!

Revisiting your reactions - Thank you!! My favorite LZ song and my favorite performance of it. It takes me to another place. . . I think Bonham is pretty amazing at MSG overall and this performance was just perfection. Never get tired of watching it. Just a few things - JPJ is playing the bass line on foot pedals. I don't know if you'd get a consensus among LZ fans of when they were at their peak. And I think it depends if you're talking about the band as a whole or not. Many would say that Robert's vocals were best pre 1973 and I've read somewhere maybe on the LZ forum that Jimmy thought the LA Forum gigs in 1972 (on How The West Was Won) was the band at its best (I've never seen that in any of his interviews, though). Also, I don't know that he would say the band had peaked at all. For me, the band was just phenomenal in 1975, but Robert's voice had some issues. The stuff they did in Germany in that brief 1980 tour was awesome. Then again, LZ on an off night was better than other bands at their absolute best.

The boys in the band called Jones jacket the onion suit!

Listen to the BBC live sessions when they first started. So raw and brilliant..

Always happens to me the same when i see this film ,i can't help thinking about the people going back home knowing they just saw the best band ever

2:39 I would say that the first 5 years of their existence were the best, but I have to admit that I am really in love with the bluesy phase at the beginning (especially 1969 and 1970) which went back to Robert who grew up listening to Delta and Chicago blues. Jimmy and John were more on the rougher harder side of Hard Rock. John Paul listened to Jazz and is a classically trained organ player. The band themselves, when asked replied that they thought their best performances were Bath 1970 and The Forum, Los Angeles 1972. Most fans would probably go for the 1977 US tour as their best time. TSRTS movie was recorded at MSG in NYC in May 1973, but was not released until 1976. They overdubbed a lot and the sequences during the movie were shot afterwards with all the band members.

Epic! They were on the road when making the album Jimmy went into the studio in Memphis TN and did the solo in one take.

Apparently I don't choose flattering thumbnails.... Look like a damn rabbit HAHA

I was there, 4th Row center. I get goosebumps watching it... wish this guy would STF up though !

The Mother F'n SMOOTHEST and GROOVEST of them all. When Bonham was on (which admittedly wasn't always) there was no pocket wider and no groove deeper, you better believe! And like you said, still the INTENSITY! Love it, great video!

This song makes me just melt 🎶🎸🎤♥️ Just listened to Led Zeppelin III in it’s entirety last night ♥️💙

That is so true that it's a very hard thing to put fills in 12/8 blues that actually serve the music, I need so much practice in that field!

You hit it out of the ballpark with this reaction....best reaction to Since I've been Loving You I have seen, and there alot of them out there on YT. Your song analysis and reaction to the crowd concert setting was spot on! 😜👍🎵🎵 The stunned look on the cop says it all!

JPJ also uses foot pedals for a lot of bottom end, while on keys.

Though their catalog got deeper with Physical Graffitti, 1973 is probably the peak of Zep as a live band.

Spellbound security guard: this is the greatest job ever! Always loved that part myself! Nice catch Andrew!

his face when they transitioned into the music for the first verse after Robert does that beautiful a cappella says it all, they were a disgustingly tight band back in the day a literally hive mind, something you cant always get out of practicing, on a level achieved by almost no one.

That face at 2:15, heh. Yeah, this is Zeppelin at the very pinnacle of their power. For me, though, the definitive version of this song is live from "How The West Was Won," in which Jimmy Page plays IMO not only his best solo ever, but The Very Best Electric Blues Guitar Solo Of All Time™️. Change my mind. "Bonham headroom" is such a great phrase. He leaves so much space, and in well-chosen moments, he fills it completely up, then empties it out again. I tell young drummers that if they want a real challenge, they should ignore blast beats and all that nonsense, and try to play this song along with the record, without losing time or rushing. Jedi-level timekeeping.

Wish I could discover zep fresh... What a memory!!

This highlights Pagey more than Bonzo. But again I request live 1973 Hamburg I can't quit you. It is 12/8 blues just like this...but Bonzo absolutely goes off in that song. I would love to see your reaction to it!

Andrew, these MSG performances were filmed for the concert film “The Song Remains The Same” which came out in ‘76, I think. They played several nights, so the audio and video don’t always match. I highly recommend it. Also....it includes Moby Dick....😉 Much love to NZ!🍻

OH! Hold up. I may need to clarify a comment I made. I said something along the lines of 'out of synch'. That wasn't a critique of the band. The images were out of synch with the music. ie Bonham wasn't playing what was coming through in the audio. Just the way they edited it. Wasn't a critique that the band was off :)

Love zepp i saw them live in Brisbane in 1972 they opened with immigrant song such power !

Totally the Peak!!! True Masterpiece

Considering trying a live stream. Maybe next week? Who would be keen for a coffee and chat!? I'm very old and technologically impaired so I'm sure it will be a dogs breakfast but worth a go?

I first saw Zep earlier that year. They are still the greatest band for me.

Yes yes yes the cops reaction is utterly gold. As he picks his jaw up off the ground

In my time of dying for drums♥️😎

Bonham is always following the intersity of the guitar, he watches and hears. Jimmy, then John Paul cues with the bass. Totally orchestrated while being improvised.

Finally someone reacts to the full version. Every reaction version has the beginning solo cut off halfway.

Hi Andrew, I' m an old school drummer from the seventies and now I'm in my seventies . I belong to the era of Cream, Sabbath, Deep Purple, Jimi Hendrix Experience and of course Led Zeppelin in no particular pecking order, as each of those bands drummers styles and technical abilities contributed so much to the bands success. Your channel just came up on a KZfaq suggestion and thought I'd have a look and listen. You're analysis and enthusiastic descriptions as you play some awesome tracks brings a smile.. On this one, if you get a chance, have a listen to the recording ''BBC Sessions'' as on it Bonham's drum sound is epic. Thank You.

Bro i love this channel, finally someone who is a real musician who reacts, and who understands what do i feel when i her LZ.

Don’t forget these guys have mastered their trade and they were only in their early twenties.

LED ZEPPELIN THE WORLD'S GREATEST! THE BEST! AND THE HEAVIEST! HARD ROCK METAL BAND OF ALL TIME !!!

I was at their very next show at Tampa Stadium May 5th 1973. There were 56,800 at this show. They were in the Guinness Book of World Records as largest single act in history for attendance. They were also in the Led Zeppelin book Hammer Of The Gods. I was 15 at the time. It was one of best three concerts in a row, at Tampa Stadium. On June 16th 1973 I saw Deep Purple along with ZZ Top, Blue Oyster Cult, & Savoy Brown. The 3rd show was Pink Floyd June 29th 1973 on the Dark Side Of The Moon tour. I can't decide which show was best, Zeppelin or Pink Floyd.

“Mind Blowing”

Led zeppelin absolut peak 1970-1973

I dont know much about drumming but i know this is the best ive ever heard

MIND BLOWING !!!

That cop stare is GOLD!!!

I love that my Zeppelin brethren have given you choice selections from bootleg recordings/re-mixes (that No Quarter is a brilliant example), this version of SIBLY is an official release though. I have heard hundreds of bootlegs and recording over the years. Started collecting tapes/memorabilia/bootlegs circa 1980. Peak Zeppelin means different things for different people. For me peak Zep might be the shows they did on the American west coast on all of their US tours.There is some great stuff from the 75 shows at Earls Court, London, as well. The 1980 tour trough west Europe has it's moments too. There are good shows from all tours. The 1973 tour is a bit overplayed for me personally but it also depends on my mood. I find some of the overindulgent stuff from the 1977 tour quite brilliant. Perhaps peak Zep for me are a few shows from 1972 mixed with a few of the later 1975 shows (Seattle is a standout as well as May 24th at Earls Court). Some like the earlier shows more than the later tours. To each his own. It might be easier to avoid copyright strikes with bootleg stuff than straight from their records. Jimmy has always been quite lenient with fans collecting live recordings and bootlegs (I wasn't always like that though). He's been known for picking up quite a few bootlegs himself while over in Japan over the years. It should also be noted that Jimmy recorded all live shows from circa 1971/72 on-wards albeit only a feed from the soundboard. Or so I've been told. Soundboard feeds are two channel mixes with a very dry sound, almost no audience noise between songs. Perhaps use them for matrix mixes (SBD+AUD in a composite). The Mike Millard audience tapes from tours in California are usually brilliant (the famous "Listen to this Eddie" bootleg comes to mind, if you want to hear the insanity of Zeppelin and the adulation from their audience, just listen to the first 5 minutes of this and play it FUCKING LOUD with headphones: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h5h2gZh8v-Cwc5s.html). Some of Jimmy's soundboards might get released eventually. Who knows. Cheers 🍺

Check out Whole Lotta Love live from this same show. Lots of transitions and incredible improvisations. It's different from the studio version.

You should check out I Can’t Quit You Baby 1970 Royal Albert Hall. Also How Many More Times Danish TV 1969
