Ep. 271 – The Heart of Markness Led Zeppelin Podcast
I play a nice show from July 7, 1973 of Led Zeppelin lighting up Chicago. Robert’s voice is in rough shape, but not as bad as the night before. Jimmy and Bonzo ably pick up any slack left by Mr. Plant.
I play Over the Hills and a raucous Dazed. Good stuff. Performed 51 years ago, today.

I finally get around to the new 8/19/71 Vancouver show. It’s a wild bacchanal of top tier Zep. I play Gallows Pole (another one appears!), Whole Lotta Love (w/ medleys) and a rockin’ Weekend (Eddie Cochran cover). What a band!

We hear the NakedEye25 remaster of the soundboard for Led Zeppelin on 6/7/77 @ Madison Square Garden. Nobody’s Fault, In My Time, and No Quarter are heard, and they’re amazing. Bombastic fantastic power. Powerful 1977 vibes.

October 9, 1971 Chicago, IL: The Heart of Markness Classic Rock Podcast
We hear a great show from Traffic on their Low Sparks tour on Oct. 9, 1971 in Chicago. The rhythm section is hothothot and Steve Winwood/Jim Capaldi sound fine. I play Light or Leave Me Alone, Low Spark, and Dear Mr. Fantasy. Fine show from a fine band.

We listen to what many say is one of Robert Plant’s best nights, Sept. 6, 1970 Honolulu. This is top shelf Led Zeppelin & we hear Immigrant Song, Whole Lotta Love (w/ medleys) & Communication Breakdown. Epic night.

We visit the 1988 Led Zeppelin reunion for Atlantic Record’s 40th Anniversary. I give the backstory and context and explain the sound, and personal, issues which colored this performance. We hear a pretty killer Whole Lotta Love and Misty Mountain Hop as well.

We hear the entire set from Them Crooked Vultures from Sept. 27, 2022 in Los Angeles, for the Taylor Hawkins Memorial show. A nice tight three song set with an Elton John song, a TCV song, and a QOTSA song. Good stuff from a great band.

We listen to a beautiful Liriodendron remaster of Led Zeppelin on March 3, 1975 in Ft. Worth Texas. The sound is incredible as we hear No Quarter, Stairway, and a funky Whole Lotta Love. The funk is real. A great sounding soundboard.
