LED ZEPPELIN
Side 1 & track 1 side 2: Liverpool 14th January 1973 Highlights include as soon as the LP begins with Plant is still having trouble with his voice, unable to reach the higher notes of "Lets Have A Party " but Page shreddings through the guitar solo and Bonzo's bass drum is like a cannon. Plant announces "and in the Liverpool evening air, screams of agony could be heard... three thousand people, all pointin' in one direction, screamin' and shoutin' and makin' funny noises." It sounds like someone is playing bongos or congas during the theramin freakout. Plant introduces Heartbreaker as "one for the M6." Page's excellent a cappella solo is followed by an earth-shaking guitar solo section. Bonzo hammers away with incredible force during the final verse. The band closes the show with a raucous rendition of The Ocean. Plant tells the crowd "it's been a very nice sunday night... see you again someday" as the band leaves the stage. Side 2, tracks 2 thru 5 from 1/27/1973 Dundee, Scotland: Highlights include: Bonzo is out of control during the riotous medley, which includes Boogie Chillen', a raucous rendition of Elvis Presley's (You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care, Let's Have a Party, I Can't Quit You Baby, which features an amazing blues improvisation, and Goin' Down Slow. Plant sings a line from Ramble On during the coda. Page blazes through the solos during Heartbreaker. As the band leaves the stage following Communication Breakdown, Plant tells the crowd "it's been a pleasure and you've been very nice too, so take care." Sides 3 & 4 are comprised of outtakes for the film "Death Wish" a Jimmy Page production... Jimmy Page was asked by his neighbour, movie director Michael Winner, to record a soundtrack for the film Death Wish II in late August 1981. Page was given a deadline of a few weeks to write and record the album at his personal studio The Sol and to travel on location to Los Angeles with Winner for songwriting themes. Winner later explained: "I'd lived next door to Jimmy for many years. It was a very bad time for him - the drummer (John Bonham of Led Zeppelin) had died, and he was in a very inactive period. (Led Zeppelin manager) Peter Grant and I made arrangements for Jimmy to do the Death Wish II score, for which he wasn't actually paid, because Grant wanted to restore Jimmy back to creativity. Jimmy rang the doorbell, and I thought if the wind blew he'd fall over. He saw the film, we spotted where the music was to go, and then he said to me "I'm going to my studio. I don't want you anywhere near me, I'm going to do it all on my own." My editing staff said this is bloody dangerous! Anyway, we gave him the film, we gave him the timings, and he did it all on his own. Everything hit the button totally! Page formed a nice nucleus of musicians that included former 'Colosseum' members Dave Lawson & Chris Farlowe and ex 'Caravan' keyboardist David Sinclair..."
