Robert Plant's vocal chords were overflactuating due to years of singing with a lot of compression. But he still did perform in front of all these thousands of people and one's gotta respect that. Plus he's a legend and always will be. So fair play to him, quite literally.
Jimmy was really high that day. Fortunately, he overcame his addictions (he just didn't stop smoking ...) he showed enormous willpower and discipline when he left drugs and alcohol. That was great, he is alive and healthy, 77 years old now, so beautiful with his gray hair. I love you Jimmy! I love you since I was born and I will love you until the last moment of my life. Thanks to you the world had Led Zeppelin! 🎶🎸❤️
You know what is the most amazing thing about this concert, it's the fact that even at his terrible playing he's still able to carry out the whole concert. Not we see in today's bands or pop stars.
Rock and Roll is probably my favorite concert opener -- but Plant can't sing it as the first song, which is why it surprises me that the band did in fact open with this. Plant didn't do warm-up exercises before taking the stage (ever), which damaged his vocal cords around 1972. Since then he has needed to start out with songs in a lower register, which is why Rock and Roll became the closing number (frequently an encore).
I remember sitting on my bed in 1985 watching this live on TV . It was apparent Robert was struggling with the pitch,and when Jimmy went for the solo I held my breath because I was sure he was going to fall over. They went on too long as Phil missed the ending,due to Robert missing the Ooh yeah bit once. He did it second time around and Roberts like "Stop! I wanna get off". Tony and JPJ made a decent job of it. And Paul did great on bass when JPJ played keyboards on Stairway. They saved a lot of lives that night by not minding what people thought. R.I.P: Tony Thompson.
A very happy 78th birthday to a rock guitar icon. James Patrick Page January 9, 1944, Heston, England. Thank you for making music that changed our lives.. And settting a standard for the best rock guitarist in the world. Now and in the rock future forever..
Sex, drugs, and rock n roll = this performance Sobriety, rehearsal, and a professional approach to preparedness = 2007 Celebration Day concert Honestly, that should be the ad campaign for the anti-drug message. See kids? When you do drugs, this happens. When you don't do drugs, THAT happens!
I still have a clear memory of watching this as a 16 year old Led Zeppelin fanatic. I remember thinking at the time that Page's guitar sounded like it was underwater, and JPJ's bass was inaudible. The drums sounded tinny, and Collins was totally clueless. Worst of all, though, was Plant's vocals. They sounded as if he'd smoked a pound of hash before the show.
"Who needs rehearsals" they said, "Its like riding a bike" they said, "let's just get on stage and let the magic happen" they said, "Let's do a couple more lines before we go out" they said.

Being there was enough.....it's all part of the fun...... Phil played in England, hopped on a plane, then played in America..... That is enough of a miracle for moi And all for a worthy charity..... Fabulous from start to finish.....!!
In 1985, we ZEP fans,would have crawled over broken glass to hear a ZEP reunion of any kind. This was as close as we could get. And it was good enough for some of us. Lastly ,despite all the negative comments on ZEP's performance....ONE very important thing to remember about this "Live Aid" gig. It was for a good ,charitable cause to assist millions of people who were dying of starvation. Lots of $ raised for Ethiopia on this day. And that was what this day was really all about. Lest we forget.
hey the ethipian thing that's something else the performance was awful mostly cause the drummers (more than no one else collins couldn't get anything right his times were wrong all the time his playing was quite shitty it was his fault that this ''so called'' reunion happened to be hideous!
Indominus Solitario What a load of bollocks I'm no Collins fan can't stand the guy , but even I know he's a solid drummer . Led Zeppelin were shit simple as that , don't always believe the hype about them they weren't as good as fans want you to believe, and typical Zeppelin fans always blame Collins for this pile of crap !!
Anthony Mclean- I'm a huge Zeppelin fan, but everyone was at fault for something. Collins, along with Tony Thompson didn't hold up the rhythm so well, despite them being solid drummers. Page was flat out drunk, and Plants voice was burned out from prior concerts. Jones was actually in good form, though. But with the lack of rehearsal, among other things, this performance was destined not to turn out well.
The audience was so excited to see Led Zeppelin, but they deserved better than the way Zeppelin showed up very unprepared. And then Zeppelin had the nerve to blame Phil Collins. Shame on you Led Zeppelin! You stunk and stop trying to blame other people for it.
The gentleman who worked his butt off on this video. Two huge thumbs up! I only watch UA-cam videos with my amplifier and Sennheiser headphones. And you sir did an outstanding job!!! Thank you so much!
It’s remarkable just how the audience responded to Zeppelin just being on stage !! It didn’t seem to matter just how unrehearsed & ramshackle the performance was…
I was there. It was a Philadelphia Rock Show crowd there, and all anyone talked about all day was seeing Zeppelin. They split in 1980, and no one at the time thought they would see the remaining members together again. Also I remember only seeing Led Zep t-shirts everywhere. When Phil Collins announced the band the roar was so loud we didn't hear John Paul Jones introduced. We finally realized it was him halfway through the set(we were in the back of the stadium. ) It was a memorable show. Clapton was great, the Beach Boys also. Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young reunited also, but for some reason all the Led Zeppelin fans ended up with tickets.
@@euanelliott8068 i remember watching this big concert on MTV but they didn't show the zep's reunion with tony Thomson, (from "chic," and "power station,") and /or phil Collins (rumored to be subbing on drums for the late great bonzo himself,) after Collins was asked, he was flown in, from london, to Philadelphia, on an sst jet, or something...i remember watching that, on MTV....but the Zeppelin "reunion". was rumored, (only to be shown on ABC, on a tape delayed playback, broadcast)....and i bet a lot of people captured that, on their VCRs..(or betamax)...anybody still have an old VHS recording of the live aid concert, (when it was on MTV, and later broadcast on ABC?) or didn't VCRs come out yet, at the time?
@UC54a8JxzE5iHRICdItSiuyQ and this was only 5 years after bonzo himself, kicked the bucket,...and Zeppelin had to cancell a planned 1980 US tour, then they called it quits, because they couldn't go on without bonzo.
Bearing in mind Phil Collins had performed at Wembley the same day then caught Concorde to fly to the USA for this performance in Philly with no rehearsal and jet-lagged he did quite well!! As for Robert, ....well.
It's funny how Phil Collins was so hot back then, that HE was the one to play both concerts, and I bet very few millennial's even know who the hell he is now.
Their shambolic performance at Live Aid is the stuff of legend. Such a disappointment for the world who eagerly waited for it. Young people don’t realise how amazing for us Live Aid was. The fact that we all watched on TV the same thing at the same time, was an incredible concept back then. Which is why so many bands got on board and agreed to do it ...for free. It was the best thing about the mid 1980’s. I think. And how quickly it was all organised. I doubt Led Zeppelin would have had time to rehearse.
I saw this live on an old TV set in Minneapolis. I'd been listening to Zeppelin for years. Even carried a boombox on my shoulder with "The Song Remains The Same" on cassette cranked when I did the "Walk for Mankind" (eighteen miles) in '84. Everyone hoped that they would reunite, with Collins on drums. My heart and hopes sank when I saw this. It was the Götterdämmerung of Led Zeppelin.
I love Led Zeppelin but, I'm glad I didn't see this performance back in '85. I was twelve at the time. I think I was still into Michael Jackson? Anyway, my boy's singing wasn't the best but, he redeemed himself on "Stairway To Heaven," I know some might disagree. And, WTF Jimmy?! Is it just me or was his guitar playing all over the place?! I didn't watch this performance because OMG I couldn't. But, the comments are pretty damn funny, even though some are a little on the cruel side.
@@MrJoeythebabykangaro I wish he would have kept on talking. It would have been more pleasant to listen to than the trainwreck that was this "performance".
Im always so thrilled to see these great concert videos.. for all the shows I missed.. so great to be able to experience them.. even all these years later! GREAT!
Was there in Philly! To those who have commented negatively let me give you a little bit of history on this epic day. Fact is that it took place during an extreme heat wave, there were people passing out all over the place, they finally called in local fire departments to assist by hosing down the crowd. It was an epic experience and the crowd was in awe!
From Wiki: "Phil Collins was the only artist to perform at both concerts. After his performance at Wembley Stadium, he flew to Philadelphia on the Concorde, where he played with, among others, Led Zeppelin and Eric Clapton."
I've heard about how awful this performance is but this is the first time I've been able to see it. This is far from Led Zeppelin's best performance, but it's definitely not as bad as I was expecting.
Polyphonic Press The first song sucked, "Whole Lotta Love" was better, and "Stairway"...I thought it was just fine. Rock and roll isn't meant to be played "perfect", it should always have a bit of sloppiness to it when played live.
I keep hearing this was all Collins' fault. Er. Bollocks? And before you say it no, I'm REALLY not a fan. Page says they "didn't rehearse" - well, WHY? Are you saying he couldn't make it happen? Jimmy Page couldn't make it happen...ok. So...he can't play with a nuts drummer? I love JB....But that band played with him NUTS. I don't know what the truth is - sorry, to a Zep-loving ill-educated in drumming, well....Jimmy looked/sounded a bit shit/off his gourd. Blaming one a highly recognised drummer - sorry, he's a good drummer and probably grew up playing this song - and Bonham's SON??? Even if they HAD been shit, YOU make it work. Like JPJ and RP.
Good to see Phil playing the drum part correctly as it was actually recorded. Not many drummers get it right. Snare played on all beats and accented on the 3rd.
Ruby Tuesday You never heard Zep live then, ha, only time Bonzo and Zep ever played something actually as it was recorded was over the radio (album songs). . .. anything outside that was a free for all, and that's what made them top of the mountain.
@Cid L yes. Apparently they only had 30 min to rehearse before going onstage. Jimmy was ticked off because Phil didn't know how to play the intro to Rock n Roll
LED ZEPPELIN Collaboration double drummer Phil Collins & John Bonham .. Hi GUY'S Who still likes to listen to this song in 2022.. are you ready ?!? Rock Never Die 🤟🤩👍
Too bad it didn’t succeed...this was AWFUL...Plant sounded really bad and Paige was high as giraffe pussy...was all over the place playing wise....sloppy
My heart sunk when Jimmys guitar was so out of tune. Live Aid's victors was Queen, it was a real changing of the guard seeing some 70's rock heavyweights fail to impress.
In my opinion John Paul Jones was and is the most talented musician in Zeppelin. It's cool to see the surviving members rock out w/ Phil. Also, in the 80s Robert Plant had a pretty good run during this period as a solo artist w/ his albums "The Principle of Moments", which Phil Collins played drums on.. "Shaken N Stirred", and "Now and Zen."
@PickettMusic def! he is such a talented musician and plays so many different instruments. I feel like if Zep never dissolved or Bonham never died, JPJ and Plant would've took Zeppelin into a more commercially accessible musical direction that Plants solo career eventually went into w/ synthesizers. If you listen to Zeppelin's last album, in through the outdoor, it's already a glimpse of the direction they were going in entering into the 1980s.. and the composers and driving creative force behind that last album was JPJ and Robert Plant.
So true. His arrangements and musicianship made that band the studio powerhouse that it was. They never were a very good live band, though, in spite of Jonesy's skills. This performance really pissed me off at the time, cuz the bass was inaudible, and JPJ got almost no camera time, despite years of life as a recluse.
LOL that's the problem with those high note singers. They sound great when they are young but most of them very quickly lose their ability to hit those highs. Thank goodness for recordings!
@Vambo Roolz Agreed. There is plenty of blame to go around. But Collins’ playing wasn’t bad per se, just plain stupid. And for him to say “It wasn’t my fault, Page didn’t like me because I didn’t know the music” is self-incriminating.
Because he was completely addicted to heroin, as he often did between 1979 and 1986 ... He has always been a mediocre guitarist but under the hammer he is truly unlistenable!
tina hakim during his solo career, he was smart enough to rely on the melodic parts of his voice. Burning down one side, 29 Palms, big log, there are plenty of songs where he makes use of his beautiful voice. But screaming and hollering and throwing his hair back was for the early seventies I agree. Not that kind of voice
Matthew McPeek- I completely agree, and he can throw his hair back and howl... to an extent. But he was one of the smart ones who adapted but never compromised. I love his current voice because his mid range is so full and vibrant. He can still do some vocal acrobatics, but applies them wisely.
yes your right and the main reason they will never tour again one night like o2 but night after night no way but god they are nearly 70 now just think of the good times and what they have given us
Zep had their good days and bad days, and this was certainly a bad one. However, they were a band full of love for all people and that's what makes them great. We had a dream.
Great song and band ! Wish we could have more bands now with that quality of writing and that freaking energy ! Good old times there or I'm getting too old for the new shit with no soul and balls :-). I bumped on one good song the other day, like to share the discovery. A shame they don't have more views given the great sound they deliver : @
+idclolidk yeah this was around the time page did the ARMS benefit concert for Ronnie Lane and was stumbling ago i s stage. Ronnie Lane even looked healthier than Page.
+Tokiofritz I have to say so true about your comment but if your led zeppelin it just don't matter and people just don't care ,they would of all payed that much again to see this live
@Lars A. : Here is the simple version: The drums have microphones placed around them. Those drum mics (the vocal mics, and mics placed in front of the guitar amps etc) are run out to the main board, usually seen out in the middle of the audience in such big shows. There the sound engineer mixes the sound so the audience hears it well, and sends it back to the amplifiers and speakers on either side of the stage.
Nothing other than a bunch of opinionated little c( )cksuckers on this thread. Your b(_)tt budd Collins is playing this song like complete sh:t...playing based on straight 1/8ths -simple 80s rock BS, no triplets or jam groove to his performance. Don't blame Jimmy for throwing this one intentionally, Collins doesn't deserve the stage with these legends.
let me guess jonsey? They were all good and essential parts of the band, but Mr. bass player, umm, no one but other bass players go to a concert to see the bass player, Robert and Jimmy were the front men, now if jonsey sang or had to put himself out there like Jimmy all the time where every so called expert guitar player and critic could find the slightest thing to rip you apart if you weren't prefect every time, then yeah jonsey would have had the camera on him more, it often was when he played piano
Yeah, well, on the down side, most people don't realise that if the drummer or bass player have a bad day then the whole band has a bad day, while if the singer or guitarist have a bad day, the rest of the band can still pull it off. The rhythm section are the unsung heros of rock. It's like the music in a movie; if the composer is doing his job then you don't notice it. If you do notice it then then the whole thing is fucked! On the up side, if you're in the rhythm section you can usually walk down the street and go to the supermarket without being mobbed. There are good sides and bad sides to everything... :-)
To be fair I don't think I've ever heard Robert Plant sing this song the way he sang it on the record. Here he seems to be putting more effort in to it than when I saw them in Vancouver during their tours to support Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti in the 70's. Then he just pranced around the stage, shook his hair and talked the lyrics all the while hoping the initial rush of the lights coming on and all the fans seeing their idols in the flesh would sell the song.
Eu tinha 19 anos na época, vi essa apresentação do Led Zeppelin pela TV aqui no Brasil, e apesar dos flagrantes erros na apresentação, respeito muito o fato deles subirem no palco em prol da caridade e procuraram dar o seu melhor!!! Longa vida ao Led Zeppelin 👍🇧🇷👍
...my roomie, Jerry & I watched and taped the ENTIRE concert...the promoters said it would NEVER be available commercially...ca 2003/4 I found a 4 DVD volume of the whole concert @ Costco..lost it in the intervening years...found it on flEaBay for 22 bux and ordered it last week...HELLUVA concert!!!
keefriff99 - And they took responsibility for this train wreck. Any interview given where this concert was mentioned, RP called it a "disaster." They really didn't practice. Page was finally straight after 10 years on dope. Plant's voice was as it always was a "hit or miss." They threw Phil Collins in that day for their drummer. Poke around ans watch some of the interviews on You Tube. They weren't kidding themselves. They did it for charity!
Adrianne Malden If this was Jimmy Page actually straight, and NOT completely off his head on whatever drug he was on, then he truly is an abysmally overrated guitarist.
With all due respect to Zeppelin and their undeniable genius, it was clear that they didn't rehearse at all. I would let it go if they didn't have the nerve to blame it on Phil Collins, and obviously he had no chance to rehearse with them either, it shows... which makes his acceptable performance an admirable feat, considering he played with other musicians that day either on other instruments or by singing, right after he crossed the atlantic, I doubt there are many who can pull that off. Also, if you think Phil couldn't pull off John Bonham's drumming I suggest you watch him live in 74-75 playing songs like The cinema show with Genesis, I honestly believe they are technically as demanding if not more demanding than whatever Bonham played with Zepp. All that was missing was rehearsal, had they done so not only would Collins had played right on Bonham's groove, but Plant and Page wouldn't have embarrassed themselves that day. My VERY unpopular opinion. Let the stoning begin I guess...
+Rodrigo de la Parra I'm not a rock musician, but your analysis seems pretty spot on. Collins is clearly an excellent drummer, but since he's the guy who sings "Against All Odds" and not the guy who played "Moby Dick", people are going to view this with pre-existing prejudices from the start. And it was likely pretty foolish to get him involved in this since he'd just stepped off the Concorde and likely had NO rehearsals on it.
+motorboat5150 Completely agree with you on every word, sadly enough. I won't deny that Phil sort of is to blame for all the hate he recieved by the rock scene, he freely stepped from being a rock drummer and singer in Genesis to being a mellow pop songwriter in his solo work, that sort of thing is bound to create conflict and controversy. Not that he shouldn't have done it, rather that he should have learned to deal with it and move on, something that clearly he wasn't able to cope with. As for the Zepp reunion I guess it all comes down to Live Aid holding to its promise of making miracles in every sense of the word. "Hey, we can save Africa from poverty and starvation, we can connect the whole world through satellite TV, why shouldn't we be able to reunite a legendary band?!" Mind you it could have been worse, at least there were no technical problems (appart from Page's phaser on his guitar, what the hell was it doing there anyway?) and from the sound engineer point of view being able to mount countless different bands and artists in a single day at the same venue is no small feat.
Damn I miss that man's groove. RIP Tony. Poor Phil is having a hell of a time keeping up. Shame about the car accident, because Tony in Zeppelin may well have kicked ass on record.
Don't see where this is Phil's fault. And for those that say Phil isn't s great drummer, I'd suggest you listen to some 70s Genesis, especially live. Him by himself and his duets with Chester Thompson are awesome (see: the Apocalypse in 9/8 section of Supper's Ready from Seconds Out)
Just read where jimmy was pissed at Phil’s playing but sounds like there was a lot of blame to go around to everyone. Not to mention they didn’t need two drummers.
This is what rock is all about guys. Good bad or ugly! No rehearsal- just going for it in front of millions of people. That takes balls. None of the autotuner/canned music acts today could do it.
really dont want to sound mean ...but a drug addicted , satanic worshipping , (allegedly ) underage groupie groper is not my idea of a icon to be adored ....great player - but his art aside ...not impressed - In this clip - his guitar sounds drenched in muddy reverb and chorus pedal effect ....just awful...apart from that - what have the romans ever done for us ????

They split in 1980, and no one at the time thought they would see the remaining members together again. Also I remember only seeing Led Zep t-shirts everywhere. When Phil Collins announced the band the roar was so loud we didn't hear John Paul Jones introduced. We finally realized it was him halfway through the set(we were in the back of the stadium. ) It was a memorable show. Clapton was great, the Beach Boys also. Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young reunited also, but for some reason all the Led Zeppelin fans ended up with tickets.
The best part of this performance was Phil lol, Jones was solid as always.
People complain now, but that night I remember my brother and I just being thrilled.
@@euanelliott8068 i remember watching this big concert on MTV but they didn't show the zep's reunion with tony Thomson, (from "chic," and "power station,") and /or phil Collins (rumored to be subbing on drums for the late great bonzo himself,) after Collins was asked, he was flown in, from london, to Philadelphia, on an sst jet, or something...i remember watching that, on MTV....but the Zeppelin "reunion". was rumored, (only to be shown on ABC, on a tape delayed playback, broadcast)....and i bet a lot of people captured that, on their VCRs..(or betamax)...anybody still have an old VHS recording of the live aid concert, (when it was on MTV, and later broadcast on ABC?) or didn't VCRs come out yet, at the time?
@UC54a8JxzE5iHRICdItSiuyQ and this was only 5 years after bonzo himself, kicked the bucket,...and Zeppelin had to cancell a planned 1980 US tour, then they called it quits, because they couldn't go on without bonzo.
Plant: "Are you having a good time? We'll soon put an end to that."
Plant hasn't put an end to millions of fans and $$$$$$$$$. Who the F#ck are you little cricket? LMAO
Right.
D G i am your father, nigga
Mata Platypus nah yous just a nigga. Nigga.
😂
thank you for sharing this rare moments of led zeppelin. im happy seeing this two bloody legends. rock n roll!!!!
Well at least JPJ nailed the bass
I can’t hear him on my iPhone so I have nothing to complain😂
JPJ never missed.
😂
Hahaha
JPJ always delivers! I don't recall ever seeing him do a bad show.
Bearing in mind Phil Collins had performed at Wembley the same day then caught Concorde to fly to the USA for this performance in Philly with no rehearsal and jet-lagged he did quite well!! As for Robert, ....well.
And what was the point of Phil playing both stages? Oh yeah, none. Ego. It's not all about you Phil?
Propper out the head
It's funny how Phil Collins was so hot back then, that HE was the one to play both concerts, and I bet very few millennial's even know who the hell he is now.
Their shambolic performance at Live Aid is the stuff of legend. Such a disappointment for the world who eagerly waited for it.
Young people don’t realise how amazing for us Live Aid was. The fact that we all watched on TV the same thing at the same time, was an incredible concept back then. Which is why so many bands got on board and agreed to do it ...for free. It was the best thing about the mid 1980’s. I think.
And how quickly it was all organised.
I doubt Led Zeppelin would have had time to rehearse.
it is spectacular and highlights via contrast their greatest days - and those were great days
I saw this live on an old TV set in Minneapolis. I'd been listening to Zeppelin for years. Even carried a boombox on my shoulder with "The Song Remains The Same" on cassette cranked when I did the "Walk for Mankind" (eighteen miles) in '84. Everyone hoped that they would reunite, with Collins on drums. My heart and hopes sank when I saw this. It was the Götterdämmerung of Led Zeppelin.
I love Led Zeppelin but, I'm glad I didn't see this performance back in '85. I was twelve at the time. I think I was still into Michael Jackson? Anyway, my boy's singing wasn't the best but, he redeemed himself on "Stairway To Heaven," I know some might disagree. And, WTF Jimmy?! Is it just me or was his guitar playing all over the place?! I didn't watch this performance because OMG I couldn't. But, the comments are pretty damn funny, even though some are a little on the cruel side.
"I'm not going to give it away.... but they are doing Rock and Roll, and Stairway"
You gave it away.
And he talked over the start!
Ted Cantu was that Mark Goodman running his fat mouth back in the day? I couldn’t stand him or Kurt Loder.
As bad as the performance was, the commentary was worse.
@@MrJoeythebabykangaro I wish he would have kept on talking. It would have been more pleasant to listen to than the trainwreck that was this "performance".
winogirlll o
Hilarious!😂 I don’t think I’ve ever enjoyed reading the comments so much.

0:31 Jimmy bowing to the stage guy😂
omfg
Jimmy fighting the mic stand had me cracking up
You hit happy hour AFTER your set not before
Was there in Philly! To those who have commented negatively let me give you a little bit of history on this epic day. Fact is that it took place during an extreme heat wave, there were people passing out all over the place, they finally called in local fire departments to assist by hosing down the crowd. It was an epic experience and the crowd was in awe!
Sorry to correct you. Led Zeppelin only played in Philly. The only one who played in both locations was Phil Collins
From Wiki:
"Phil Collins was the only artist to perform at both concerts. After his performance at Wembley Stadium, he flew to Philadelphia on the Concorde, where he played with, among others, Led Zeppelin and Eric Clapton."
4:41 Ah yes, Jimmy Paige. Because Jimmy Page was certainly not playing on that day
BROWN22SUGAR Jimmy was al strung out on heroin,I was there!
Knebworth was the last time he played good live IMHO
Just spotted that typo after 36 years... Ha
Jimmy just brilliant. Really rocked.
@@710LL59 he played pretty well with The Black Crowe’s.
I've heard about how awful this performance is but this is the first time I've been able to see it. This is far from Led Zeppelin's best performance, but it's definitely not as bad as I was expecting.
Polyphonic Press The first song sucked, "Whole Lotta Love" was better, and "Stairway"...I thought it was just fine. Rock and roll isn't meant to be played "perfect", it should always have a bit of sloppiness to it when played live.
+motorboat5150 Rock n Roll was so bad. Phil Collins was the best musician on that song lol.
I keep hearing this was all Collins' fault. Er. Bollocks? And before you say it no, I'm REALLY not a fan. Page says they "didn't rehearse" - well, WHY? Are you saying he couldn't make it happen? Jimmy Page couldn't make it happen...ok. So...he can't play with a nuts drummer? I love JB....But that band played with him NUTS. I don't know what the truth is - sorry, to a Zep-loving ill-educated in drumming, well....Jimmy looked/sounded a bit shit/off his gourd. Blaming one a highly recognised drummer - sorry, he's a good drummer and probably grew up playing this song - and Bonham's SON??? Even if they HAD been shit, YOU make it work. Like JPJ and RP.
+idclolidk .....AAAHHH....did you not see John Paul Jones there with them?
it's really not that bad. I agree. and Collins sounds good.
Good to see Phil playing the drum part correctly as it was actually recorded. Not many drummers get it right. Snare played on all beats and accented on the 3rd.
Ruby Tuesday You never heard Zep live then, ha, only time Bonzo and Zep ever played something actually as it was recorded was over the radio (album songs). . .. anything outside that was a free for all, and that's what made them top of the mountain.
Jimmy was livid at Phil over his playing on this tune. Said Phil got it wrong.
@@DG-sf9ei FYI I saw them at Knebworth in ‘79.
Collins got the intro wrong and things went downhill from there.
@Cid L yes. Apparently they only had 30 min to rehearse before going onstage. Jimmy was ticked off because Phil didn't know how to play the intro to Rock n Roll
LED ZEPPELIN Collaboration double drummer Phil Collins & John Bonham .. Hi GUY'S Who still likes to listen to this song in 2022.. are you ready ?!? Rock Never Die 🤟🤩👍
Phil was everywhere in the 80's,couldn't get away from him..
Even the mic stand was trying to stop this. 2:13
LOL
😂
Haha ha
Too bad it didn’t succeed...this was AWFUL...Plant sounded really bad and Paige was high as giraffe pussy...was all over the place playing wise....sloppy
Funniest comment.
i seen Zeppelin in 1970, 1971, and 1977. This is tragic.
Okay I agree they do suck here
What can I say they do
Being a guitar player I know every day is not perfect
still great to see them alive. Better than Mr Page fighting with the mic at 2:12 is Mr Jones trying not to burst out laughing at 2:18
My heart sunk when Jimmys guitar was so out of tune. Live Aid's victors was Queen, it was a real changing of the guard seeing some 70's rock heavyweights fail to impress.
Sacrilege I say. How dare you!!!?
Queen were at their peak in the mid 80's Live Aid was perfect timing for them
His guitar wasn't out of tune, but the playing was shitty.
nope, Jimmy always plaid like that, that's why I still thing he is over rated... He never learned how to play clean!
George Tempest overrated my ass he was amazing in the yardbirds and the first half of Led Zeppelin’s career. This is why you don’t do heroin.
Even though Page hated this performance....the crowd loved them anyway.
In my opinion John Paul Jones was and is the most talented musician in Zeppelin. It's cool to see the surviving members rock out w/ Phil. Also, in the 80s Robert Plant had a pretty good run during this period as a solo artist w/ his albums "The Principle of Moments", which Phil Collins played drums on.. "Shaken N Stirred", and "Now and Zen."
And Brian Jones of Rolling Stones.
Agreed. JPJ is the secret weapon...
@@myself1943 what are you referring to when you say Brian Jones?
@PickettMusic def! he is such a talented musician and plays so many different instruments. I feel like if Zep never dissolved or Bonham never died, JPJ and Plant would've took Zeppelin into a more commercially accessible musical direction that Plants solo career eventually went into w/ synthesizers. If you listen to Zeppelin's last album, in through the outdoor, it's already a glimpse of the direction they were going in entering into the 1980s.. and the composers and driving creative force behind that last album was JPJ and Robert Plant.
So true. His arrangements and musicianship made that band the studio powerhouse that it was. They never were a very good live band, though, in spite of Jonesy's skills. This performance really pissed me off at the time, cuz the bass was inaudible, and JPJ got almost no camera time, despite years of life as a recluse.
just listen to 2:32 and you heard everything about this "performance".
Вообще в никуда поёт, задыхается))
I just love how nobody is complaining about JPJ XD he's the only good thing about this performance tbh
He's barely audible
Lmao
Plant with his 80`s perm and Jimmy strutting around like a damn rooster
John Malerba That made me laugh haha
Guitar screams in pain and agony at 3:22 because it finally realizes what is happening.
It was the microphone
It's been a long time since they were in tune
2:08 Robert singing exactly how my mind is feeling while listening to this....far from perfect performance
LOL that's the problem with those high note singers. They sound great when they are young but most of them very quickly lose their ability to hit those highs. Thank goodness for recordings!
The crowd was way to charged, but Zepplins return to stage, was epic. Don't think anyone in the moment said, "not the best performance ",..
At first I thought it sounded bad because of the recording quality, then I saw the dead audience lol
Unused Acct the audience is surprising happy to say how bad it is
This is MY #1 youtube channel! Thank you!
When you've made magic in your day, don't muss it up by trying to extend it once it's gone.
"Ooohh been a long time since I rock n rolled."
Hmmm yeah, it shows.
🤣🤣🤣
Hey blame Collins and his shitty drumming
Megalodon Morrison why not, that’s what they did. I mean it was Collins fault that both Jimmy and Robert were crap, wasn’t it......
@Vambo Roolz Agreed. There is plenty of blame to go around. But Collins’ playing wasn’t bad per se, just plain stupid. And for him to say “It wasn’t my fault, Page didn’t like me because I didn’t know the music” is self-incriminating.
@@cazamilfs8945 no blame Collins and the stage crew
JPJ-- doesn't need rehearsal. The perfect main man of LZ
Sobriety tends to have that effect.
Thank you.
2:14
I dont know why page is having fight with that microphone stand
looked at him funny
He's coked out of his mind here he probably saw a guy instead of that mic stand 😂😂
He Lost.
Haha
Because he was completely addicted to heroin, as he often did between 1979 and 1986 ... He has always been a mediocre guitarist but under the hammer he is truly unlistenable!
I remember watching this live and being horrified that this was the mighty Led Zeppelin. They more than made up for it in 2007 at the O2.
@Joe F You talk like you can also do better. It really isn't hard to tell when a band is doing a terrible show.
@@idk-mk2pj it’s easy to tell one who judges who really shouldn’t be. Kinda like you.
Yep, they sure did, young Jason did a fine job
robert plant's voice has been holding on for dear life since 1972
It’s true
Steven Kolar- Just because he cannot hit the high notes doesn't mean he can't sing. He's been in fine voice on his Carry Fire Tour.
tina hakim during his solo career, he was smart enough to rely on the melodic parts of his voice. Burning down one side, 29 Palms, big log, there are plenty of songs where he makes use of his beautiful voice. But screaming and hollering and throwing his hair back was for the early seventies I agree. Not that kind of voice
Matthew McPeek- I completely agree, and he can throw his hair back and howl... to an extent. But he was one of the smart ones who adapted but never compromised. I love his current voice because his mid range is so full and vibrant. He can still do some vocal acrobatics, but applies them wisely.
yes your right and the main reason they will never tour again one night like o2 but night after night no way but god they are nearly 70 now just think of the good times and what they have given us
2:14 Page : Go Home Mic Your Drunk😂
Zep had their good days and bad days, and this was certainly a bad one. However, they were a band full of love for all people and that's what makes them great. We had a dream.
Iain Jamieson From 1969 - 1980 they had only 1 to 3 Bad performances. This one was wtf have i listend to.
😂ILL TAKE THIS PERFORMANCE ANYTIME TODAY KIDS GOT JUSTIN BIEBER SELENA GOMEZ AND LIZZO CARDI B 😂😂
@@mype9133 I don't think they were helped much by Phil Collins who seemed to either be playing a different song or another band!
@@Bulletguy07 yeah u right my guy
Great job with a neat video and audio...Superb! Appreciate it!
This sums up the 80's. Like, seriously
I'm not sure all the blame should fall on Collins. It was a joint effort! What the hell was all that phaser doing on Page's guitar?!
Jez Creed Trying to cover for all of the clams, I'd guess.
their awful in this the drumers are collins and Tony Thompson those aren't exactly Scrubs, Thompson is one of the best drummers ever
It’s chorus. It was a fad in the ‘80s.
Phasers were Page's thing. Don'think he used a chorus on stage.
Was bad from the first note Plant sang, long before Collins lack of preparation showed up.
Great song and band ! Wish we could have more bands now with that quality of writing and that freaking energy ! Good old times there or I'm getting too old for the new shit with no soul and balls :-).
I bumped on one good song the other day, like to share the discovery. A shame they don't have more views given the great sound they deliver : @
thankyou for posting this rock 'n Roll History.
If you're gonna have a day playing badly, go all the way and do it in a stadium of 90,000 with a TV audience of a billion.
+Tokiofritz Yeah and then they tried to block all recording of it lol like that would change the fact half the Earth already saw it.
+idclolidk yeah this was around the time page did the ARMS benefit concert for Ronnie Lane and was stumbling ago i s stage. Ronnie Lane even looked healthier than Page.
+Tokiofritz I have to say so true about your comment but if your led zeppelin it just don't matter and people just don't care ,they would of all payed that much again to see this live
+idclolidk 1/7 of the earth.
wellandboy
You're right.
I remember watching this live drinking beer smoking the good stuff me and my unemployed friends had a good time. Good video but I'm going to Queen
2 bars in and Phil's wishing he hadn't jumped on Concorde after all!
For context guys, this was supposed to be their “endgame” moment back in the day
And Page still has the nerve to blame Collins for this shambles.
Horrible sounding guitar effect Page is the one that is having a bad gig.
Right?? Phil was the only one keeping it together. Plus the sound man needed to never work again with all the feedback. Sad!
@@divanymph Actually Phil`s drums are switched off, you hear Tony Thompson.
@Lars A. : Here is the simple version: The drums have microphones placed around them. Those drum mics (the vocal mics, and mics placed in front of the guitar amps etc) are run out to the main board, usually seen out in the middle of the audience in such big shows. There the sound engineer mixes the sound so the audience hears it well, and sends it back to the amplifiers and speakers on either side of the stage.
Nothing other than a bunch of opinionated little c( )cksuckers on this thread. Your b(_)tt budd Collins is playing this song like complete sh:t...playing based on straight 1/8ths -simple 80s rock BS, no triplets or jam groove to his performance. Don't blame Jimmy for throwing this one intentionally, Collins doesn't deserve the stage with these legends.
As usual the best man in the band is forgotten by the camera's
let me guess jonsey? They were all good and essential parts of the band, but Mr. bass player, umm, no one but other bass players go to a concert to see the bass player, Robert and Jimmy were the front men, now if jonsey sang or had to put himself out there like Jimmy all the time where every so called expert guitar player and critic could find the slightest thing to rip you apart if you weren't prefect every time, then yeah jonsey would have had the camera on him more, it often was when he played piano
in LZ, John Paul Jones played bass, keyboards, mandolin, rhythm guitar and acoustic guitar. But you are right, people are clueless.
Yeah, well, on the down side, most people don't realise that if the drummer or bass player have a bad day then the whole band has a bad day, while if the singer or guitarist have a bad day, the rest of the band can still pull it off. The rhythm section are the unsung heros of rock. It's like the music in a movie; if the composer is doing his job then you don't notice it. If you do notice it then then the whole thing is fucked!
On the up side, if you're in the rhythm section you can usually walk down the street and go to the supermarket without being mobbed.
There are good sides and bad sides to everything...
:-)
Il tempo passa ma le cose migliori rimangono
I was just thinking that exactly!! Always on. Never fails. Amazing every time.. Aahh the simple folk easily distracted by glitter and butterflies.
To be fair I don't think I've ever heard Robert Plant sing this song the way he sang it on the record. Here he seems to be putting more effort in to it than when I saw them in Vancouver during their tours to support Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti in the 70's. Then he just pranced around the stage, shook his hair and talked the lyrics all the while hoping the initial rush of the lights coming on and all the fans seeing their idols in the flesh would sell the song.
check out a recording from 1971 or 1972, he nails it during those years
Eu tinha 19 anos na época, vi essa apresentação do Led Zeppelin pela TV aqui no Brasil, e apesar dos flagrantes erros na apresentação, respeito muito o fato deles subirem no palco em prol da caridade e procuraram dar o seu melhor!!! Longa vida ao Led Zeppelin 👍🇧🇷👍
Thank goodness they redeemed themselves in 07 for one final concert.
2:14 Jimmy fighting his demons....and a mike stand.
Yeah well if he was fighting demons his ass won lol .Hes the godess of guitar's and he didn't miss a beat while playing 👍
That was the best part. Bet in the moment he thought the mike stand was attacking him 😅
The mike stand won 😂😂😂
Mic
😂
2:12 Jimmy Page " Go home mic YOUR DRUNK" , guitar strap got caught in the mic stand
Sonic Pulp I laughed so hard at this.
The cord, not his strap.
Jerome LeBlanc road crew fucked up
ᆢ
Jerome LeBlanc : Stop picking on Jimmy. In his day no one could touch him.
...my roomie, Jerry & I watched and taped the ENTIRE concert...the promoters said it would NEVER be available commercially...ca 2003/4 I found a 4 DVD volume of the whole concert @ Costco..lost it in the intervening years...found it on flEaBay for 22 bux and ordered it last week...HELLUVA concert!!!
The blame for this entire debacle falls squarely on Page and Plant.
keefriff99 - And they took responsibility for this train wreck. Any interview given where this concert was mentioned, RP called it a "disaster." They really didn't practice. Page was finally straight after 10 years on dope. Plant's voice was as it always was a "hit or miss." They threw Phil Collins in that day for their drummer. Poke around ans watch some of the interviews on You Tube. They weren't kidding themselves. They did it for charity!
Adrianne Malden If this was Jimmy Page actually straight, and NOT completely off his head on whatever drug he was on, then he truly is an abysmally overrated guitarist.
I think Phil did AWESOME!
I know~ I don't get all the Phil hate~ he was amazing!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
With all due respect to Zeppelin and their undeniable genius, it was clear that they didn't rehearse at all. I would let it go if they didn't have the nerve to blame it on Phil Collins, and obviously he had no chance to rehearse with them either, it shows... which makes his acceptable performance an admirable feat, considering he played with other musicians that day either on other instruments or by singing, right after he crossed the atlantic, I doubt there are many who can pull that off. Also, if you think Phil couldn't pull off John Bonham's drumming I suggest you watch him live in 74-75 playing songs like The cinema show with Genesis, I honestly believe they are technically as demanding if not more demanding than whatever Bonham played with Zepp. All that was missing was rehearsal, had they done so not only would Collins had played right on Bonham's groove, but Plant and Page wouldn't have embarrassed themselves that day. My VERY unpopular opinion. Let the stoning begin I guess...
+Rodrigo de la Parra I'm not a rock musician, but your analysis seems pretty spot on. Collins is clearly an excellent drummer, but since he's the guy who sings "Against All Odds" and not the guy who played "Moby Dick", people are going to view this with pre-existing prejudices from the start. And it was likely pretty foolish to get him involved in this since he'd just stepped off the Concorde and likely had NO rehearsals on it.
+motorboat5150 Completely agree with you on every word, sadly enough. I won't deny that Phil sort of is to blame for all the hate he recieved by the rock scene, he freely stepped from being a rock drummer and singer in Genesis to being a mellow pop songwriter in his solo work, that sort of thing is bound to create conflict and controversy. Not that he shouldn't have done it, rather that he should have learned to deal with it and move on, something that clearly he wasn't able to cope with. As for the Zepp reunion I guess it all comes down to Live Aid holding to its promise of making miracles in every sense of the word. "Hey, we can save Africa from poverty and starvation, we can connect the whole world through satellite TV, why shouldn't we be able to reunite a legendary band?!" Mind you it could have been worse, at least there were no technical problems (appart from Page's phaser on his guitar, what the hell was it doing there anyway?) and from the sound engineer point of view being able to mount countless different bands and artists in a single day at the same venue is no small feat.
Well done. Outstanding job cleaning & syncing!
"Well... they're just these guys... you know?
3:03 Phil Collins realizing just how bad this is. lol
He didn't help, sounds like a plain 1/8th note rock drummer trying to play Zep
Tony Thompson kicking butts on the drums.
Damn I miss that man's groove. RIP Tony. Poor Phil is having a hell of a time keeping up. Shame about the car accident, because Tony in Zeppelin may well have kicked ass on record.
Sou cada dia mais apaixonada por Led Zeppelin ! Este rock é o melhor dos tempos!
I hope that was sarcastic lmao
OK then, ummmm, wut?
"Not to give away the set list..."
Mark Goodman, you just gave away two thirds of it!
I remember watching this live and we couldn't understand why Jimmy got into a fight with that mic stand at the beginning of this song... ;)
Don't see where this is Phil's fault.
And for those that say Phil isn't s great drummer, I'd suggest you listen to some 70s Genesis, especially live. Him by himself and his duets with Chester Thompson are awesome (see: the Apocalypse in 9/8 section of Supper's Ready from Seconds Out)
he doesn't know how to play Zeppelin's songs as in he did not practice them
He is more than adequate here. Page was f'd up off his ass and Plant decided he didn't want to warm up his voice, but it's Phil Collins' fault?
Phil is one of the best drummers EVER.
No blame can be put at the feet of Collins.
Robert Plant really embraced the 80's!
Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
so cool

Just read where jimmy was pissed at Phil’s playing but sounds like there was a lot of blame to go around to everyone. Not to mention they didn’t need two drummers.
This is what rock is all about guys. Good bad or ugly! No rehearsal- just going for it in front of millions of people. That takes balls. None of the autotuner/canned music acts today could do it.
I love Jimmy Page. What a wild man. His life’s ups and downs on display for the world to see. Makes him vulnerable. Always a legend.
really dont want to sound mean ...but a drug addicted , satanic worshipping , (allegedly ) underage groupie groper is not my idea of a icon to be adored ....great player - but his art aside ...not impressed - In this clip - his guitar sounds drenched in muddy reverb and chorus pedal effect ....just awful...apart from that - what have the romans ever done for us ????
