Mister Chuck wagon you are an amazing anthology of knowledge.. without you we never would have known,,,🍄🍄🍄🤔 my mommy told me it was all about Satan,!! Hulu all the time it was just a puppy LMFAO
Usually go that guitar work and all of that instrumental stuff that went down .. on this song that's not really a song it's an instrumental six string.. virtuoso..yeah when you look into Jimmy Page's eyes while he, is pouring his heart out for Robert plant's blue eyed dog.. if that's all you got out of the song I feel bad for you.. the big picture is Robert plant mentions his dog Jimmy Page is on another planet.. you think Jimmy Page from this song and wrote those guitar licks for Robert plant's dead dog???? you'.… freaking might as well be on Pluto!!!!!! Robert plant blue-eyed dead dog was the last thing in Jimmy Page's mind!!!!
Oh my gods and goddesses this song means so much more to me now 😭😍 I always think of my dear old TinkerBell whenever I listen to this song and now, after all this time, I know why
How awesome, I saw them play this in Baton Rouge in the 70’s. Robert came out apologizing for being late and blamed it on the Louisiana country roads… It was a Great show.. Thanks so much for posting this.
My guess is the people who came from France, Spain, Portugal, England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales to settle places like Louisiana probably played folk music much like Zeppelin plays here. It's weird to think of what our ancestors in the year 1700 were doing.

Bron-Yr-Aur means "golden breast" or "breast of gold" in Welsh, as in a hillside of gold. Its pronunciation is [ˈbrɔn ər ˈaɪr]. The cottage had no electricity or running water, but the change of scenery provided inspiration for many of the songs on the album, including "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp".
To settle the debate, I think Red Shield is saying that HE plays it in open G as opposed to open F. The tuning on the album is CFCFAC (which if I’m not mistaken is the same tuning as When the Levee Breaks). But Jimmy actually uses open G when playing it live. Cheers 🍻
I remember being at this concert in 75 as a teen at 16 years old. It was the 2nd time to see Zeppelin in Dallas. I don't remember the show at all. Only the very first song. The band messed up so bad they actually stopped playing. Robert said "Welcome to our rehearsal" & the crowd gave them a great amount of applause before the show continued. Page just stood there beaming smiling about the whole thing.
There seems to be the Presence of A Life Force, whenever Led Zep performs. Whether Jimmy is playing a double-neck or acoustic or fender or Gibson; whether Bonzo is stomping or hard-drumming; whether Jonesy is playing organ or bass; or whether Plant is grooving standing or sitting on stool. A sort of cosmic energy Elan Vital clearly Presence! I just don't know why I love Led Zeppelin so much!
Very few bands ever had this much talent in four people. Lennon/McCartney were a song writing powerhouse but Zep could just make stuff up together in the middle of a jam.
His musical vocabulary was much more vast than anyone else in RnR. His sense of proportionality, when to be quiet, and when to be loud is unmatched. Asides from Jimmy Page, I also totally LOVED at one time early Clapton (Cream and Blind Faith, and maybe some random solo stuff).
Wheres jpj and what kind of guitar is that? Looks like a Martin... Missed this tour.. But was only 11 or 12 so hey... Caught them in '77 at Forum when I was still 13.. First concert ever..LED ZEPPELIN. OH YEAH 😎
Everybody knows that led Zeppelin or the Kings when it comes to the heavy metal blues that started with Black Sabbath.... What more can I say 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@bigboss3051 Yeah, the soundboard style/technique, as opposed to actually learning how to play at a level that a sound board should never be needed. Jimmy does not use, nor does he need it because JIMMY IS ACTUALLY PLAYING THE GUITAR HIMSELF.
@Dana Patton Dana, My comment was strictly sarcastic. I am a big fan and have been following them for 45 years. JPJ always gets left out of videos, interviews etc while being just as important as the other members.
Little did the members of Led Zeppelin know, but in just shy of three months time one of the most profound events in the history of mankind would unfold. My mother was eating a greasy hotdog with chili, washing it down with root beer when she thought she was stricken with the vapors. But alas, I was making my break from the confines of her hot and muggy womb into a no less hot and humid Southern Appalachian summer day. The nurses all gathered 'round And they gazed in wide wonder At the joy they had found The head nurse spoke up Said, "Leave this one alone" She could tell right away That I was bad to the bone.
I wonder where this was? Plant says - sounds like Dallas. I was there in Dallas for their 1975 tour but maybe this was after Dallas. I LOVED them back then but didn’t appreciate them like I do now.
I guess as he had used the guitar for the preceeding two tracks and it was in his hands that he decided it would be as quick to do it himself (all three acoustic tracks sequenced together on this tour are in different tunings!). Nowadays most musicians would have spare guitars brought out I guess !!
Was that a dig at Neil ?? Or just sayin we are all just peeps at the end of the day..who buy ranches like Neil and castle like Robert or Blobi as he's also known...I fink 🤸
Page doesn't even have a guitar tech to drop-tune his acoustic to C-A-C-G-C-E.... the rest of the band and the audience are forced to wait. Also the sound engineer is not doing any of them any justice. Amazing how unprofessional by todays standards looking back

Lyrics
Ah, I caught you smilin' at me, that's the way it should be
Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine
Ah, all the good times we had, I sung love songs so glad
Always smilin', never sad, so fine
As we walk down the country lanes
I'll be singin' a song, you hear me callin' your name
Hear the wind whisper in the trees
Tellin' Mother Nature 'bout you and me
Well, if the sun shines so bright, or our way is dark as night
The road we choose is always right, so fine
Ah, could any love be so strong when so many loves go wrong
Will our love go on and on and on and on and on and on?
As we walk down the country lanes
I'm singin' a song, hear me callin' your name
Hear the wind whisper in the trees
Tellin' Mother Nature 'bout a-you and me
My, my, law-de-law, come on, now, it ain't too far
Tell your friends all around the world
Ain't no companion like a blue-eyed Merle
Come on, now, well, let me tell ya
What you're missin', messin' around them brick walls
So, of one thing I am sure, it's a friendship so pure
Angels singin' all 'round my door, so fine
Yeah, ain't but one thing to do, spend my natural life with you
You're the finest dog I knew, so fine
When you're old and your eyes are dim
There ain't no 'Old Shep' gonna happen again
We'll still go walkin' down country lanes
I'll sing the same old song, hear me call your name

I play this one in open G . Led Zeppelin has a lot of songs that never got the air play they deserved.
It s open F
@@doczik that’s cool, I’ll have to try that one. Thanks!
In fact it s open D with capo at 3 😝

They have a deep catalog. I would say they are one of the very few bands who still get a lot of different songs played.
Only God plays like this, just pure magic, pure genius!
Their the Greatest Band of my Boomer life time. We had great fuc*ing music.
Indeed
Incredible guitar playing 💥
Bonzo’s drum is amazing on this song. What a virtuoso!

And the drummers who rank 2 - 10 feel the same way!

The best Rock Drummer from the best Rock band ever!!! Where in the hell have you been young man? Get it together Dude.
Not one shot of JPJ playing the upright bass.
That's alright we know he's the secret ingredient.✌️🍺🔥 when did he ever play the upright bass?
Maybe not but they got one of your mom playing the upright organ after the show - Ta dum dum diss.
hahaha Robert got me laughing with his Neil Young impression at the start lol
Damn Jim is just an amazing player...to have half that talent...
Page starts the alternate tuning on his guitar for this song while Plant keeps the audience engaged at the start….

@@randybutternubs1209 thanks! I looked at the date incorrectly.
What happened to Page's guitar tech? Robert was great here!!!
I guess as he had used the guitar for the preceeding two tracks and it was in his hands that he decided it would be as quick to do it himself (all three acoustic tracks sequenced together on this tour are in different tunings!). Nowadays most musicians would have spare guitars brought out I guess !!
maybe Robert's "Are ye alright Wally?" is referring to Jimmy's guitar tech, which was probably busy backstage 😆
I can’t understand, it’s for Robert’s dog or for his blue eyes friend??????
His dog is his blue-eyed friend. His blue-eyed merle
Wagging his tail didn't give it away !
You know dogs have eyes right lmao what a dunce
Wait what tuning is Page playing in here? Seems different from the record.
The tuning he is playing on record is open f. And because this sounds a bit higher pitched I would assume he is playing somewhere closer to open g.
Jesus Christ Jimmy!
Get on with it"!
Lol did Bonham come in late? Also this sounds more sharp then the album
You me and me seem to be the only ones who caught this. I swear he came in late and even yelled “sorry” when he finally did join in.
goku5511 lol even Robert was like, “oi mate!”
Fuck how long does it take Jimmy to tune there ? His tech must have been neck deep in something else at the time
What tech lol
I have never tuned a guitar coked up and on heroin and drunk but i feel like it could be very difficult
Jimmy had to tune the guitar to F before the song? He didn't have a second guitar already tuned for that song?
don't care. still awesome.
Song begins at 2:22
Anybody else catch the neil young reference near the front?
Was Plant ripping on Neil Young???
Kinda on a slide here!
"Old man take a look at my life..." That was not Robert Plant.
Bob being a little snarky
I wanna blues from Bonzo...
Sloppy Cripple creek or wotevah lines in there. Gotta love Jimmy lol.

Maybe Steve Howe is maybe just maybe in the same league.....
No one tuned an extra guitar to open F before the show? You'd think that would be standard. Too many groupies.
