Ep. 323 – The Heart of Markness Led Zeppelin Podcast

We hear a banger of a show from Jimmy Page/Robert Plant from March 11, 1995 in New Orleans. This show had some unique performances and great energy. I play House of The Rising Sun/Good Times Bad Times, a lovely Thank You, and a super groovy Dancing Days. A good one!

Ep. 322 – The Heart of Markness Led Zeppelin Podcast

This is a North Bridge remix/remaster of Led Zeppelin playing Frankfurt on June 30, 1980. This is a fun, very good show with flashes of magic. North Bridge did a hell of job fattening up the soundboard recording, and making it sound almost professionally recorded.

I play In the Evening (which benefits the most imo from the North Bridge treatment), Trampled Underfoot, and a glorious, fun, joyous, playful Whole Lotta Love with Jimmy playing sweet blues licks in the Boogie Mama section, along with a spontaneous performance of Frankfurt Special. This is a good one.

Ep. 321 – The Heart of Markness Led Zeppelin Podcast

This is a show I covered in a two parter about 5 years ago. Led Zeppelin in Cleveland, Ohio on April 28, 1977. I’m revisiting it now because it’s an amazing show, worthy of another listen. The band is on and the power and mystery are on display. Bonzo seems locked in a little tighter, Jonesy seems a bit more front and center, and it makes for a glorious show.

I play The Song Remains the Same, Achilles Last Stand, and a rare encore performance of Trampled Underfoot. This is a fantastic gig and a very nice recording.

Bonus – The Heart of Markness Classic Rock Podcast

This is a fantastic Two of Us recording of Lou Reed at NYC’s St. James Theater, on March 21, 1989. He plays the entirety of the New York album before playing a second set of Lou faves. It’s glorious.

I play Dirty Boulevard, Strawman (germane to the time in which we find ourselves), and a rollicking Vicious. If you do Lou (I know you do) then I hope you enjoy this one.
