- This is Part 2: Led Zeppelin at Live Aid Continues...
Any requests? Whatta Whole Lotta Love!!
This clip has been cleaned up: the green hues from the 20 yr old + tape has been removed, the brightness & contrast have been balanced out.
The audio has been synchronized to the FM broadcast captured on an old cassette tape. That audio was pretty messed up & had lots of dropouts, hopefully the results are satisfactory.
Watch in HQ with headphones if possible.
Not often you see a stadium show and the impression you leave with is, "damn that's one mighty fine bass player!"
shit😂😫
I love how nobody complains about JPJ!!!
A true legend.
Nobody Complained on Page Plant Either
cause these iPhones can’t really hear him, so there’s nothing to fuss about 🤣
Cause he doesn’t know how to mess up
he was not there or was he? I saw Willem Dafoe instead
It sounds like Saturday afternoon at my local Guitar Center
In my opinion any Zep is better than no Zep. It was great to see them together again for this cause. I wish they would do a reunion tour they would sell out. Instead of being a critic I am grateful to see them together once agin. Great memories from a great band. Thank you very much for the music.
Just came here from the 1970 Royal Albert hall show. Fuck me, what a difference 15 years make. Going back to that year.
And it was on this day that the musical genre known as "Grunge" was created. Led Zeppelin, ahead of the pack, as always..
More like Rape Zeppelin amirite?
@@cryptsub yes , yes you are
haha)))))
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So true, Jimmy Page’s tone sounds very grungy on this particular day
Me:Mom can we have Led Zeppelin please?
Mom:No we have Led Zeppelin at home
Led Zeppelin at home:
DUde I laughed pretty hard at that!
Firefall
i have a better version:
son: mom can we buy the Led Zeppelin live album ? (shows to mother how the west was won album)
mom: no we already have Led Zeppelin live at home (takes the live aid DVD)
What do you mean
@@lucasnn2008 too wordy
any live zeppelin is solid priceless gold
The most beautiful train wreck ever. I loved this from the day this was live and always will. I just love when page goes into his own thing at 4:07 and starts getting his swerve on. I don’t recall any bootleg or official live recording of whole lotta love that contains that guitar playing.
At least it was better than Justin Bieber.
@@a.t.m873Well Justin’s music is for snowflakes so of course it’s better lol
How they got through this mess is nothing short of a miracle...imagine them having to go backstage and face their families, friends, and other musicians...wow! No wonder they were loaded!
Jimmy's thinking "God, I miss Bonzo!!"
2 drummers = 1/2 Bonzo
I don't think Jimmy was even thinking.........
@@LuckyTown77 1/10 Bonzo
Jimmy's thinking "God I'm such a Bozo"
@@vinniepaul9187 hey tony thompson was good
Susan Boyle on lead guitar at 0:30. No wonder why it was a disaster.
funny, the crowd seems to be getting off on it, the tv sound was no where as near as potent or as close to what the audience was hearing very loudly, and it would have helped of either of the two drummers kept the right time and groove
Ive been laughing at this comment for 10 minutes straight.
Should have had Susan Boyle on drums too!! Phil Collins was just being himself, AWFUL!
Thats one Susan Boyle that got tons more pussy then any of us! Even in that stage
Man every time I watch live aid footage of Zeppelin I go back to watching the version they did at Msg 1973 to remember how it sounds.
exactly it’s like they were different people; MSG is fabulous
Me too. This one's s train wreck
Robert was past his prime i n 73 too...I mean it was far better than this but not prime plant.
cocaine is one hell of a drug lol
Led zep on a bad day.....still great.
Led Zeppelin is led Zeppelin no matter what!
Maybe if they got Jimmy Page to play guitar instead of Susan Boyle it wouldn't have been so bad.
Hahahhahahahahaha!!!!
😂😂😂
Stupid Comment
I large part of their sub par performance.they really didn't have a lot of time to rehearse. They were told Phil Collins knew the songs.various other mistakes.now consider the comeback at the O2 arena. They had a whole lotta timeti get ready , of course Jason knew the songs. A very good fill in for his late father. That O2 show was a premium grade performance.
I think his looks at the time are a big reason as to why the show is hated so much
UGH 1:46 I LOVE JIMMY DOING THE BACKUP VOCALS so adorbs
as Plant looks at him and smiles (which I love about Plant..he has a sweet side) .. Page obliviously dribbles.
Robert Plant, Deine Musik liebe ich auch! Aus erster Hand weiß ich, daß Du ein toller Mensch bist, danke! 💖👍💖🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Tony Thompson (RIP)-The drums killer, Best studio drummer ever He is played with Madonna, Dawid, Bowie, Power Station, Chic...
3:02 this voice crack should've been included in the original
And people wonder why Robert Plant never wanted a full reunion tour......
He is doing good with his band actually
Yeah... And his band doesn't have ANY songs that require Zeppelin-like vocals
Dave Carsley Very, very seldom am I critical on UA-cam but seriously...
what a stupid comment
@@daisyladyklg8538 you're right, that's a very stupid comment
@@davecarsley8773 RP played some Zep songs on his Zen tour in 1990. Sounded good. He belted out Heaven knows (a collaboration with JP) pretty well. You need monitors set up with a sound check before you take the stage. This did not happen as we witnessed and therefore they sounded a bit crappy.
Digan todo lo que quieran, ellos son Led Zeppelin 🙌
Un très bon moment !!! Mes oreilles ont apprécié !!!!✌✌✌
Playing in different tunes with out of tune instruments. Epic!
Alot of criticism was thrown toward Phil & Tony for not drumming properly during the Zeppelin set. But Phil said in a 2010 interview that it was actually Zep who were the ones who performed badly. He said: "They weren't playing very good and I was made to feel a little uncomfortable by the dribbling Jimmy Page." "If I could have walked off, I would have - but then we'd be talking about why Phil Collins walked off from Led Zeppelin. So I just stayed there and bit my tongue."
I love Zep but after watching this, I'd have to agree with him cuz they weren't too impressive. Plant was off key in some parts & Page's playing was just plain sloppy. But even mediocre Zep is better than no Zep.
KoolCat ! Phil Collins is the best drummer ever and his adaptability to almost anything is 100%. It sounds like Led Zeppelin had a really bad day!
Still playing better than a lot of bands today
They also sound pretty alright 🤷♂️ Plants voice is not breaking too much and Jimmy is at least hitting notes in the key scale
They hadn't played together in awhile either
Not even mediocre Led Zep
Page was intoxicated 😵
Damn they were good sometimes the good Lord puts people together and it's just amazing they were great I could watch this all day
@Leo, thanks for all of your good work!
1.9 billion people watching in 150 nations..worldwide... UnF**king Real..A complete embarrassment.
I do not believe what I seen. Now I know why Its not on the the dvd or soundtrack..
led zep didn't want their gig on the official dvd they devolved their fee in beneficence
I love Led Zep but this performance was NOT Phil Collins' fault.
Why was it anyone's fault? I think its pretty damn good considering.
Take into account they just rehearsed on the flight from England into NY...
several hours before that they were just relaxing at their homes. They obviously weren't in shape...and Collins did suck
The guy did NOT even know the songs! He certainly didn't help matters, that's for damn sure.
Jimmy forgot his own fucking song, and Robert was off key. Phil Collins didn't even have a minor role in this performance being shit.
Yep - Collin's didn't suck. A common misconception but it just isn't true. He'd just played with Clapton and that was all just fine. He had to mime half the time because Tony Thompson decided to let rip and not play with Phil properly. In fact, they were all well rehearsed except for Phil.
- Plant didn't even warm up his voice so didn't know if he was going to reach the first note or not (he couldn't) and was hoarse through the whole thing.
- Page was in a bad state anyway and hadn't yet realised it's a bad idea to be drunk on stage.
- JPJ almost didn't get to play because Plant just wanted Jimmy.
I like this show and the way they played. The chorus is magnificent. I like Jimmy Page's voice.
This was a beautiful mess! Love it!!
They should've just had Tony Thompson on drums, Throwing Phil up there just for the clout factor( he was THE MAN in '85 ), set off a chain reaction of confusion, panic and all around uptight vibes. You can have two drummers in a band but they need a lot of time playing together before it locks in and is an overall plus to the sound. Put it together a few hours before the show and it sounds like a whole music store being thrown down a flight of stairs.
musicalchairs777 he was the only musician on stage that day
@@justinlarsen2281 Phil's a great singer, songwriter, drummer, piano player, producer, etc. But he, along with everybody else were in a tough situation and weren't prepared for it. You can throw an extra celebrity guitar player up there and just bring them out of the mix if they're lost. Can't really do that with drums. If you don't like mushrooms, you can pick them off the pizza. If the crust is bad, that complicates matters.
I agree. I think he and JPJ were the only musicians on stage that day
tony thompson was one of the best 10 drummers of all time. he was formally invited to join led zeppelin right after live aid in 1985 but reluctantly declined because he had to take care of his dying father.
never heard that before , interesting comment
Led zeppelin the best band ever
It was nice of the rehab center to let Jimmy out to play.
😂😂😂😇
That was harsh....but Mr. Page deserved it, I'm afraid.
I see a lot of people blaming Phil Collins for this entire lackluster set and here is my opinion: if Collins could be blamed for ANY song of the Zeppelin set it’s this one, Whole Lotta Love. You can clearly tell he doesn’t know how to or when to play the drum fills between Page’s solo. Besides that, he did his job as a backup drummer in Rock and Roll and Stairway. The rest of this set that fell to shambles is on Jimmy Page. Plant can only be blamed so much, his voice being strained only adds to the low quality performance, but it can’t cause it. Jimmy’s playing absolutely causes this whole thing to sound like trash.
Page said Phil Collins only rehearsed for 2 hours before the show.
I've read Phil Collins's and he addresses this. He agreed to do a few songs with Robert Plant it became a Zep reunion and the others had been rehearsing for two weeks without him. He agrees itcwas terrible and he should have not done it but they insisted he would be fine.
Yeah absolutely doesn't know when it's the ending, he tried to end that during Jimmy's epic ending he plays every single time which obviously Phil Collins had never listened to like a waka waka waka waka waka waka waka waka waka waka waka Waka waka waka waka waka waka Waka, oh now it's over wackawaka
Yeah it sounds like shite but when you were right in front of the stage like I was it was f****** awesome! It's all about the moment folks, not hindsight. One of the best days of my life. The best performer there was Eric Clapton
How much were the tickets?
@@tbonemoon1330 commenting so I can get an answer
Ya that was like please don't do this again,we are trying to say to our kids these guys were awesome
Agreed. It was very exciting at the time.
It was the thought that counted
This sucks compared to their Royal Albert Hall performance back in 1970!!! That was top notched!!!
this is one fantastic band is awesome.
These guys didn't rehearse, or so goes the legend. Song 1 (Rock n Roll) was sloppy but by Song 2 (Whole Lotta Love) Robert's voice had settled down and Jimmy's swagger kicked in.
John Bonham was so good it took 2 drummers to replace him!
1/2 replace of bonham
Bonham drumming is so boring.. listen Genesis Phil Collins drum work and you will see a real drummer
@@goncalosantos496 I don’t want to get into a huge debate over this but Bonzo could wipe the floor with Phil.
@@velvetwatermelon2647 Bonzo was so boring 🤦 same beat all the time
@@velvetwatermelon2647 not really - both great but different (try listening to some Brand X). This was unrehearsed and Tony T had no interest in cooperating - Phil was just trying to stay out of the way.
sounds GREAT, & they had a GREAT time!!!!:)
I watched it on MTV I couldn't wait
Honestly Queen owned that day. No one, i mean no one came close to Freddie, Brian, Roger and John on that day. They absolutely killed it.
Queen absolutey killed all
Also U2, but at that time, they were a Cult Band (and better...)
Yeah, but U2 came close.
Led zeppelin the best band ever
Mark Shaggy nope that's micheal jackson
This isn't that bad actually. At least they reunited.
Just amazing
I was there this was def a low point. Queen stole the show.
This is perfect. You can see where Phil screws up but Tony was on point.
Phil Collins always played with two drums in his recitals.
1:53 Phil has to stop because TONY THOMPSON is out of time!!
best rock band in history
Thanks, I was curious about that as well.
Actually, Tony did indeed join LZ in late 1985/early 1986. He apparently did 8 new tracks with LZ at Bron-Yr-Aur studios with them but Jimmy decided to shelve the project after Tony was involved in a car wreck later that year. Jimmy still has those master tapes.
God I remember Live Aid - a lot of legendary perfomances that day. We all gathered round our wee telly and watched this. Poor pagey though, he was completely fucked up on heroin. Amazingly though, he still pulls it of - because he's Jimmy flippin page!
Alex Simpson Poor Pagey? The dude gets completely fucked up on herion and God knows what else, and then has the audacity to put all the blame on Collins? Fuck that. Maybe if him and Plant took their giant egos out of the equation and actually rehearsed, then the only bad thing about this performance would have been Plant's voice shot to shit. Phil Collins should be the one getting the pity, not that junkie asshole Page.
I wish I never saw this
I feel you, mate.
loads say that but i loved it
LED ZEPPELIN FOREVER!
- "any request?!!!"
- "yes: quit the stage, please"
I love Robert Plant's matured voice.
exceptional piece! I was 14 and I listened to this concert Mondovision in 1985! Excellent Led Zeppelin!
Super, Perfect!!!!!!!👍👍👍🎸🎸🎸🎸
When stars believe the hype and think they can wing it. (yeah, I get it, their last toe nail clipping has more talent than me, but at least I know my limitations)
It's like watching a pretty good Led Zeppelin cover band.
it's hilarious you said that because I saw a cover band called Zoso 2 years ago and they didn't even do Whole Lotta Love!
@@blutomindpretzel1735 Zoso is a great band, back in the 90s a local bar would have open jam night, me and a handful of musicians would play, one night a terrible snow storm was happening, these long haired guys come walking in the bar, I got talking to them, it was Zoso, we talked them into getting up and playing a few songs, it was killer, you never know what a big snow storm might bring.
just think all during the 70s we thought these bums were iconic.studio creations .go watch queen on the same day.
led zeppelin sucks.
What I would do to see this concert live!
And this is why John Bonham still is the best drummer ever
Zeppelin on a bad day is still better than most bands on a good day
If that was the case music would be not listened to. This is terrible. Lol
@@mitchcarson6309 wasn’t that bad considering they took more kilos of who knows what compared to the food given to ethiopia

Questa band è stata davvero sfortunata
LZ,The legend of Super Band to spirit Africans in Live Aids ! Thank you so much (Teriima kasih banyak banget) 0k Bro n Sis
SOO MUCH PHASE, CHORUS WHY?
***** this is 1985, everyone were using this, very fashionable at the time.
Four very important things in 80's music; chorus effect, shoulder pads, mullet, cocaine.
Thank god the 80’s chorus effect is done with, ass sound!!!
there are two drummers..Tony Thompson was hitting drums during that time
Great Drummin'. Kickass Version!
LOL
Best song rock all time 😮
Great to see a great band sound like a garage band again.......at 3.27, I think Page is even playing the riff backwards....
Everybody so high and Robert Plant had a bad period of not knowing what he wanna be.
5 years later man...barely together LZ was. real raw.
Led Zeps favourite song
I notice Page & Plant barely acknowledge John Paul Jones is onstage with them. Were there tensions between them at the time??
cardman880 I know nothing at all completely. But I saw another comment on this vid say that Plant wanted Page not JPJ to play... Idk tho
Phil Collins..el único que actuó en dos continentes en el Live Aid.
i have respect for him playing for them
.... he first helped me to sing soft without straining my voice. then, he taught me how to get the power out, the classical way, loud and ...clean!!!loudd, but not risky! This gave me a very clean voice, soft medium or loud, it didn't matter! But never dirty: no rock n roll!!! Through trial and error, I found my way back to a more "average" technic... I now make my living as a vocal coach ... and the low pay concerts are just for the hell of it!
The look on the guy's face behind the speakers when Jimmy's headbanging out of the solo is priceless.
It's like "WTF is he on?"
Page is drunk.
Plant's voice is shot.
Phil Collins was the best one there, and that's not saying much.
John Paul Jones absolutely solid as always
JPJ was the best one there. Phil Collins wasn't great
True JPJ was decent but there was no need for 2 drummers. Most fills were terrible.
Collins and Thompson both kept missing ques. That second solo from Page was not intended to be a solo, that was supposed to be the final rave up to end the song, but when he realized they weren't with him on that he played it off like it was a solo. At that point, they were in a bit of trouble - the song was supposed to be over. Plant just vamped with "oh yes..oh yes..oh yes..finally Page turns completely around to both drummers to indicate to them emphatically that this final bit is the END! This is not a solo!
Plant looks decidedly haunted of expression going ooh ooh yes at the end.
I don't think he knew where the end of the song was, Phil kept going having a whale of a time until Jimmy turned around as if to say that's it.
After Live Aid, Zeppelin said they were not happy with the performance. That may be so. However, it was great to see the 3 of them on stage together
this is to one of fantastic band
I know all of them messed up a little, but it's still thrilling to hear led zepplin. I think john bonham would have been okay with Phil's drumming.
Collins fan that I am, I have to defend my guy! I believe he tried to play more honest to the recordings, especially coming right off the plane & with no rehearsal. But they also had the late great Tony Thompson (Chic, Power Station), who was playing everything too fast--and maybe that was by design as he probably didn't want Phil stepping in and taking away his lead. Then of course, Jimmy Page was zonked out of his mind and maybe Plant was a bit too. If Phil had his way, he would've played for everyone that day, and in the 80's he did play for just about everyone with excellent results. I just wish he had let these guys bomb on their own, but is there any rock drummer who would say no to playing with these guys if offered the chance?
Bentom86 me too!! He is number one on the top 10 singing drummers of all time and Roger Taylor, from Queen is number five. I like them both. I just love them dearly and they are so funny and darn good.
It was neither age nor is lack of practice. It was simply that his voice rapidly deteriorated in the mid-70s, probably from overuse and abuse, chain smoking, etc. Cripes, you can even see him smoking a cigarette just before he begins the show! The only reason he could continue doing songs like this is that he was very musically talented, so he was able to improvise singing lower notes with less power. But unfortunately, it was his original power and range that was the appeal to songs like this.
JFK stadium, Philly......what a kick ass venue. saw many great band there, in fact i saw the last event, dylan and dead 1987 before they tore it down. but on this day i was home watching on tv as zeppelin played less than 30 minutes from my house....what was i thinking?
terrible performance
Yes. terrible, but still better than most bands today! I'd prefer the worst Zep performance to any well designed crappy Rock group today.
ah.. well thats for sure!
@@Marny700 No. The music of today isn't very good, that's true, but this is NOT better than most bands today. This is fucking awful!
@@davecarsley8773 check out king gizzard and the lizard wizard - awesome modern band
Phil Collins - "It wasn't amazing to be there, I have to say. They weren't very good. And I was made to feel a little uncomfortable by the dribbling Jimmy Page. If I could have walked off, I would have. That day the tempos were all over the place, and it may have seemed like it was my fault, because I was the one who hadn't rehearsed, but I would pledge to my dying day that it wasn't me. I remember in the middle of the thing, I actually thought, How do I get out of here?"
good times BAD times, very bad times
You can see where The Edge gets his inspiration for his guitar on 'Bullet in the Blue Sky'!
And then there came her majesty 'QUEEN' with their legendary performance,Freddie with absolute control on crowd,Brian got his fingers on his red special,deacy with the bass with his spot jumping moves and Roger Taylor with his sexy looks and talent on drums.... 🙏🙏
Page and Plant sounded awful that day, but I had forgotten how great Phil Collins was on drums with Zeppelin that day. He's not used to playing heavy rock, but he was amazing, very underrated drummer.
And Jimmy tried to blame Phil for their subpar performance.
Holy moly, Phil Collins is an international superstar and the song "in the Air tonight" is probably the most famous drum heavy song in the entire world. How exactly is he underrated?
Phil Collins is definitely used to playing heavy rock songs. Some of those early Genesis songs were quite heavy, especially for the time. Dancing with the Moonlit Knight, The Knife, In the Cage, Apocalypse In 9/8, Cinema Show for example. Check out The Knife live in 1973, that's not that much different from what Zeppelin was playing at the time.
I really think he was the best one that day and anyways whatever phil collins does they blame him for everything and poor collins can't seem to get a break no matter what he does. But it was Jimmy page drunk off his ass and Robert plant was horse and couldn't get vocals together that day and why not blame everybody else and phil was the fall guy.
stan smith yes, Poor Phil is like a fish out of water but he’s doing a great job. I give that man a gold medal because he performed in England and then hopped on a plane and flew to JFK to perform. That’s an incredible man right there doing incredible work for charity.
80's were awsome
Show. Banda qy arrastou uma, duas , três gerações. Na vrdd até hj. Rock pesado. Estilo agressivo. Para aqueles qy gostam de vrdd. Vcs ainda estão no palco.
Jimmy's face through the whole song: 🥴🥴
When Jimmy completely blasted still plays better than most clean
Eh that's a stretch. He is one of the greatest players of all time but substance abuse really affected his playing. His timing is a bit off and I'm certain something is out of tune there. From what I understand they had very little time to actually rehearse. Anways, the stars of this performance were Collins and Jones.
