Absolutely honored to be a part of releasing this piece of history. Thank you to the whole team and happy new year everyone!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much @ledzepfilm cant wait to do this again. Have super new years, you disserve it. You did something really great today for all the LZ fans
@@speedysfilmsstill have more huh 😏
@@nicalter much much more. More LZ and many other bands
this is so cool...time traveling with Zeppelin... an amazing sync! Ledzepfilm
I don’t always listen to LED ZEPPELIN, but when I do, I make sure my neighbors get to enjoy it also!
It might get loud.
I will remember that.
PLAY LOUD
I was at this show along with 2 of my now deceased brothers, my best friend and another friend who is now also deceased. I went with him to get the tickets for all of us, back when you actually had to go get tickets, we waited a day and a half in the cold and let me tell you it was a mad house. They had booths set up and herded you in like cattle, after receiving your tickets they picked you up and let you out on the other side. I was so glad to get my tickets I left my change and luckily, I found a dollar in the mud on my way to Woodward so I was able to take the bus home. This show sounded better than most people say it did, of course I had good seats just to the left of the stage. One of my brothers got arrested for selling a joint in the bathroom halfway through the show so I missed a little bit when I ran into the bathroom just as they were putting the cuffs on him.
RIP To My Brothers Dennis, Michael as well as Jimmy Capobianco.
PEACE
LOVE
LED ZEPPELIN
I saw them as well but I was a baby back then a whole 15 years old.
@@reneeranger2885 I was 14
RIP to your brothers
GREAT STORY !! thank you for sharing ....
Interesting. I saw them on the same '77 tour in NYC, but when tickets were announced, we were only allowed to SEND in mail order orders for up to 6 tickets at a time and NO lining up anywhere to purchase. Part of a safety deal I believe because previous tour there (73?) during ticket sales someone was crushed to death. Worked out greatly in my favor as I got 3rd row seats right up front. Crazy good.
I was at this concert with my mother, but it was the only way I could come, and it was worth it, and I was 13 years old 😎
Did you get a spankin ?
what did your mother think?
@@dadmateryn8092he doesn't know. she and i were busy
The 50's gave us the birth of the rock & roll attitude. The 60's blew the creative lid off what rock & roll could be, the 70's perfected it..... and Led Zeppelin were the inimitable masters.
Couldn’t agree more…the. Then phish came aboard and changed everything regarding exceptional live music experiences. But Zepplin. Fuck. Listen to the crowd.
Chills up ,down ,across the spine.
Wow!
Ðeep Purple
This could be the greatest moment in U- Tube history
What do you mean could be...it IS!!!!
🤣🤣🤣
I Agree!
Without question
This is outrageous!👍👍
Pink Floyd
I was there. I was 17 years old.
Man I'm getting old now
❤
same. Very glad I went
I was there 3 days earlier when they played Cleveland's Richfield Coliseum on April 27th, 1977. This truly will be going back in a time machine......
..there some existing 8mm footage available here on TH-cam from Richfield 4-27 y’know. Have you seen it yet? It’s quite good. Especially at the very end…during the shout choruses of Stairway are going down. The entire SHOWCO lighting rig is illuminating and it looks like something from Close Encounters! Just totally AWESOME.
5 days earlier, April 25,1977 in Louisville Ky I seen Zeppelin live.
I was at the Cleveland show as well (Richfield Coliseum)
There are also full audio of the two show in Cleveland 27-28. Two soundboards from the 27th. Odd that.
I think that show is Destroyer bootleg
I'm 73 years old....saw them at Madison Square Garden in the 70's...NO band has the power, the stage presence, the musical prowess of Zep! Let today's "superstar" bands take note....THIS is what rock is all about....pure, imperfect and mesmerizing.
Thank you for all the hard work that went into restoring this masterpiece....PLS GIVE US MORE!!
I think ZooTV era U2 would give them a run for their money..clips of u2s 1992 show at the pontiac are on youtube..
@marky1974 In terms of spectacle and performance, perhaps, but in terms of musicality and mere presence, nothing can touch Led Zeppelin.
@@DetVen I like both bands but I think u2 have the better songs..in 1992 u2 were twelves years in and at their peak..by 1977 zeppelin were doing 20 minute organ ,drum and therminin solos..they peaked in 75..the pro shot seattle 77 show is very good though..Plants voice was up and down post 73..
LZ is the most majestic of all of them. I think I like Rush a lot more. As amazing as LZ is. Something in live LZ footage always seems to be a bit of a let down in my experience. That being said LZ still is the greatest.
Bullshit
I was 20 years old when me and two of my friends attended this show. We didn't have the festival seating, but we were down there before the show started. As soon as the show started it became a crush. It was so tight I could lift both feet off the ground without going down. People were being passed overhead while the concert went on. Plant even tried to calm everyone down (in this video) because people were getting pushed against the barrier near the stage. It was a great show. The sound in the Silverdome was not very good. Lots of echoing. The show itself was great! Great set. It was without a doubt the best concert I have ever attended to this day. The only time I would ever see the mighty Zeppelin live. If I could go back in time I would have tried to go to some of the other shows in surrounding states.
This PRICELESS footage means more with each and every passing day - so glad Speedy was a visionary and left a legacy in his passing.
I was at this show, aged fifteen. Zeppelin was my favorite band, Kashmir was (and is) my favorite song. There were tears in my eyes that April night, and again tonight as the flood of memories engulfs me. I was with three of my closest friends for this concert, and two of them are no longer with us, so this footage is ever more poignant for me. I've always searched for the CCTV footage, but if it hadn't been wiped, I'm sure it would have surfaced by now. So, I'm sure this will be the next best thing.
Thank you for this. Genuinely, sincerely, from the bottom of my heart - thank you for posting this footage.
You’re bringing tears to my eyes. I’m so glad you were able to go. Wish friends from the past were still around - it sucks getting older. I was 12 in 1977, folks wouldn’t let me go to any shows, haha. I was more into ABBA and disco, hate to say. I didn’t reallllly get into LZ until around 1979 and then it was soon all over with Bonzos death.
Now I’m a huge LZ fan and have seen although I’ve seen Robert Plant several times, which is fine, it’s not LZ.😭😭😭
I was there with about 10 of my friends❤
I was there at 15 years old too. My 1st concert!
Sometimes time-traveling is real, if the emotions are strong enough. 🎉
You just stated exactly how it was for me too but I was 16. It was the best night wasn't it?? Imagine Zeppelin 1/4 mile from my house...
Was at the Silverdome for this amazing piece of history. Had just turned 18 years old. An experience I will never forget!
RIP Speedy. What a goldmine he left for us. How on earth did he sneak all that equipment in, and how did he get to the front of the stage every time? Amazing! Thank you, production team, for putting it all together. This channel is a rock and roll dream come true. 🤘
He worked for a tour bus company for a lot of the shows. So he had extra access then most. If you watch the BBKing or the YES he is back stage
@@speedysfilmsThere used to be a concert tour bus company in Toronto at the corner of College and Yonge. They did a lot of concert tours from the mid 70’s to the mid 80’s. I wonder if Speedy worked for them. Cheers
@speedysfilms Thank you! That explains a lot. The man is an absolute hero for capturing these intimate rock and roll moments and so are you guys for taking the reels out of the time machine so that we can experience, to some degree, what it was like to be there.
Speedy worked for Gamesaway Tours out of T.O. Leo was the owner and I think he worked for another one too
Speedy did 23 Zep shows from 71 to 79. He got to meet the guys in the process. Took lots of pictures too at all the shows he went to as well. One day I'll get the chance to go thru all the boxs of stills he left me as well
I'm here now, and I was there then!🎉❤
Jimmy Page, you need to find the film footage of this show. Deep dive into your archives, find it and release it.
I've heard rumors that while there was in fact a camera crew for the entirety of the set, it was only used to project live footage onto a jumbotron for the crowd. Its possible they weren't even recording the feed, just projecting it...
Page could should have a mission to have every performance they did in a RnR library. LZ should have their own. Would be the first ever !
@PurpleNinja-vn4hv at 5:20 there is a cameraman behind Jimmy. Where is that footage?
I was at this show very very high on good purple microdot. Damn good show! Laserbeam light show, after the show, the lights came on may be a few people left, but we held for 45 minutes and they came back for an encore.
me too, the dot!! I remember the lights going up also, lots of folks left
45 minutes wait for the encore??? Never heard of that lol
Hell I would have too! Sadly one of the few regrets if my life, missing the 7/17/1977 show at the Kingdom! My folks were ultra conservative I had just turned 17 on the 9th of July, there was no way I was going to be able to go! Then of course the beginning of the end happened to the mighty Zeppelin machine with Karac passing, John and Jimmy missing the funeral. The way ITTOD was put together with not much of Jimmy and Bonzos input on it all together! It was my least favorite but was so looking forward to that tour to come to Seattle! When the worst day day of my life up to that sad day September 25th 1980 when I was at work the local news only AM 710 Radio said Bonzo was gone! After work I got arrested with 3 other of my best friends picking shrooms in the Kent Valley that same afternoon! It was horrible I worked for Honeywell that did 85% military D.O.D. work with a security clearance! So a stupid drug charge could mean losing a career job for sure and with daddy being a supervisor it wasn't looking good trying to avoid letting dad find out! Well my little brother failed me when I asked him specifically to make sure to get the mail every day before mom did and put the mail I was expecting in my room and keep it between him and I! HELL NO! The worst case happened, mom got the mail the day that the summons for my appearance in court even opening it up seeing it not having a clue to what what trespassing 3rd degree meant! I lied threw my teeth, took a day of vacation off and so did dad to my surprise! He was pushing me to hurry up cuz he was going too, I said NO! Plus I had to go pick up my buddies 15 miles in the other direction then back track 40 miles to the court house! It was fucked up, but at least dad had gone to work while I was in the shower so I thought! I just mped in my 67 Baja bug and headed off to get my buddies leaving g later than I should doing several double passes on a winding road to get there, but all was good we made the trip in record time! Getting into a packed court room none of us were called up first, so very nervously we realized that 95% of the cases that day were all for the same reason, after hearing a couple of rulings we breathed a BIG sigh of relief only getting a simple 54 dollar fine without any probation! We were out by noon and headed back to were we knew a guy the sold pot and since I had the best job I bought 3 grams of some high grade pot with us all getting ripped the whole afternoon enjoying that we got a slap on the wrist then getting back home just in time for dinner to ward off the lunches! Well my dad a usually a pretty well mannered man definitely had a bit of a attitude even though I told them of the slap on the wrist deal and that it was behind me so not to worry about, it was all cool! No that's when I caught more hell from him, getting the 3rd degree about how I put my clearance in jeopardy and could effect my future advancement at Honeywell! I went to my room after dinner to hide from the rath of dad's anger and probably just took some sneaky hits of pot then later after dad was in bed I went to the fridge to get something to eat when mom caught me to give me more shit about it, I told her to lay off another to make a big deal about it! That's when I found out that dad had left to go to work all right but parked just down the road hiding waiting for me to pass then he was going to follow me to court! He was more pissed that I had lost him in the dust driving like a idiot so not to be late, then had to wait till later when I got home to find out it was no big deal, but for him he was scared to death that I perhaps gone to jail! So it being a no biggie thing, blowing his doors off and losing him watching me passing cars like it was a road course and I was going to win the race and him a loser is what really PISSED him off! My folks were young when I was born, in his early 20's he and his dad were successful go-cart racers with me still in diapers watching intently getting the racing bug that would race around the house like a complete idiot getting the nick name HOT ROD, for yrs that was me and everything I drove i would take it to the limit even though I was very small and had to kick start my motorcycles in the beginning using a 5 gallon bucket to do so! The older I got that nick name wasn't used anymore in fear it would go to my head jjuusstt making me more dangerous maybe killing someone later! Well sure I was hot rodder racing on the road all of the time rarely getting beat with my 65 Barracuda pony car with big balls never wrecking it just beating the hell out of that thing! My dad had bought without me knowing a rare 67 karma ghia aversion bug with a sun roof that wasn't real straight but a good buy, thinking I would have less chance of fucking up with a slow bug! Sure dad! Lol! The first thing I did was get it rebuilt cut up the body and made it into as fast of a death trap as I could and certainly did wreck it! But no harm done too badly and got into VW's after that they could be hot nodded up pretty good with the last one I did that would do wheelies after market geared down race built tranny with 32" tires all the way around, big fat off road tires in the back with a balanced 1600 and dual side draft carbs that made it scream one piece fiberglass tilt front end and custom steal framed with brush guard bumper front and rear and a single glass pack stinger exhaust! It was the perfect dangerous 62 Baja that I beat the hell out of but never wrecked it! If you made it this far thanks for reliving a bit of my crazy life that 63 I'm still alive and crazy as hell still waking up each morning grateful to get another day of life sober, semi retired helping those less fortunate having a good time all of the time, just sad that I never saw the mighty Zeppelin live just Jimmy and Robert at the gorge in 95! I swear on my parents passings that it was all true and just a small fraction of the wild life I've lived with few regrets, one awesome daughter that gave me one grandson who is my mini me that I pity my daughter to have to deal with but all is good and blessed! You all take care and be careful, it's some different times now! Vote smart 2024 Trump to drain the swamp!
@@BradHorning-gi6zj: Trump is evil, a rapist and a criminal. I read your whole post, liked it, then saw the last line. No thank you!
I was just having a conversation with my 16 year old son about how bands back in the day were great live, because you can tell that they are REALLY singing (no backing tracks, etc...). This is a PERFECT example of the power and passion in Robert Plant's live vocals. He is AMAZING!!!!!
Plenty of them out there today. King Gizzard, Umphrey's McGee, Primus, etc
@@joshuakaster9310 - That's nice. In 50 years, no one's going to be talking about King Gizzard, Umphrey's McGee, Primus..... and we won't see any King Gizzard, Umphrey's McGee, Primus cover band. There can never be a band that comes close to the power of Led Zeppelin.
@@broeheemed32 you never know and no reason to be negative. Just go and actually look for the good music instead of focusing on the crap. Otherwise you'll just be miserable listening to the same stuff again and again and again
@joshuakaster9310 The bands you mentioned have no where near the impact of Zeppelin or other bands from that Era. There will NEVER be an Era like that again period.
One of the best nights of my life. Words cannot express my gratitude.

I was there. I got a ticket for my birthday early present. I was turning 17 years old May 20th 1977.
so excited!!! I was at this show, I had just turned 16
Look at the camermen onstage. Anyone ever come across or heard about these video recordings ever being released? Many thanks for sharing this. What a gift!
I had the same question. Why is all the Zep footage crap when other bands of the time produced some very good quality video. Even SRtheS is lousy video. Maybe they didn’t have budget?
This is HUGE. Thanks to all involved for making this happen
I was there and I still remember this like it was yesterday
how amazing i am laying in bed in a LED ZEPPELIN SHIRT as i READ this
I’m wearing my tie-dye 1975 tour shirt on with Icarus in full flight or as my wife says: Robert Plant in full flight!
Let's go !
OOOOOHHHHHH YYYYYAAAAA
I've Been Following Along Elsewhere 👍 I'm Super Excited And Wanted To Say Thank You! I'm Simply Amazed & Grateful! Happy New Year!
Your work in the Zep community is awesome...your videos are great...and big thank you to Speedy..a Toronto Tonto to the Max...and legendary filmer from the 70s
You mean the record breaking and controversial concert that was listed in the Guinness book of records?
what away of ending 2023 by watching this wonderful footage
I feel like this is the closest I’ve ever been to seeing Led Zeppelin live.
I was at this show!! M-80s flying through the air, onr went off in a girl's face infront of me, Frisbee everywhere!!! I was so stoned 76,000+ people held me up!!! Don't remember hardly anything, but the sound did suck!! But man.....I WAS THERE❤❤❤❤❤
I was there too, still have the bootleg T-shirt I bought in the parking lot for 6 bucks!
So cool seeing Jimmy play Ten Years Gone on his B Bender Telecaster.
I was there. They were more than solid that night. The cleaned up audience tape is a testament to this statement. The band had a soft spot for Detroit, not sure why though.
Probably due to Motown and Rock and Blues plus remember KISS wrote Detroit Rock City so Detroit has a reputation for Rock and Soul mainstream music with some pop aka Diana Ross The Jackson 5 Stevie Wonder and of course Kid Rock and Eminem!
@@garylagstrom3864oh yes. Kid rock. The pinnacle of rock n roll…
Detroit: Motown, Mitch Ryder, MC5, Iggy & the Stooges, Alice Cooper Group.
As Bob Seger famously put it in his Live Bullet recording,
"As I told everybody last night
I was reading in Rollin’ Stone where
They said Detroit audiences are the greatest
Rock n roll audiences in the world
I thought to myself ‘Shit, I’ve known that for ten years!’"
Kid Rock is a dk suxer.@@jordan3119
Every glimpse of Bonzo is something to treasure. Thanks for releasing this!
He was a beast!
He was barely adequate.
@@cwinsten1 Then you know zip about music or talent.
One can readily see professional cameramen lurking & prancing about the stage...one must now wonder where those films are lingering...somewhere in grannie's attic.
Thank you to everyone who helped put this together
Thanks DOD , for the epic reveal
That early cam view is about where I was standing.....it'd be a huge moment to see the young ME again!
I was there at the old Pontiac Silverdome in 1977 and could write a short novel on this event. We came from northwest Ohio in a packed van the night before and were amongst the first couple hundred of people admitted into the stadium, or around 3 o'clock as I recall. I was about 30-40 in front, center stage and it was one of the most memorable shows that I've ever seen.
This is fantastical film ! The rumors have finally come to fruition - this film does exist ! Thank you to all who were involved in putting this together for us hardcore Led Zeppelin fans ! I'm glad that the casual LZ will get to see this as well.
You can see the cameras all around the stage - I wish Jimmy would find the film from these shows, if it exists. I guess Jimmy can't find the film, nor the multi-track recording of this show.
Thanks for all your efforts Speedy ! RIP legend ❤💔❤️🫂🤜🤛🎹🥁🎤🎼🎸🎼🎶🎵
What you see are the U-Matic video cameras. They were used to provide the images for the giant screen above the stage. Similar to the setup used for Earls Court in 1975, Seattle Kingdome in 1977, and Knebworth in 1979. The only problem is they did not record multitracks for this show and it is possible that the cameras were just providing live feed to the screen and not recording the images to tape.
Oh, ok. Thanks for clarifying that! Happy New Year! @@seanstrider2185
@seanstrider2185 I've heard those rumors crop up lately that the U-Matic cameras were only used to project video, however the U-Matic system involved 3/4 inch cassette style tapes, which fit inside those box style cameras seen on stage. I'm geared towards it being filmed. The film could get easily damaged in playback, but not always.
The U-Matic style tapes pushed to the way side 16 mm film and many news station switched over to using the U-Matic system by the mid 70s. It's not a stretch to think that film may exist somewhere or is was used and lost or destroyed. It's not a stretch to think that this show may have filmed by Led Zeppelin. It's all speculation at the point.
The silverdome had an actual video production studio in house for the video boards. Some where someone has lots of killer footage from the bands and festivals that happened in the Silverdome.
They probably didn't like the way it came out. Especially audio inside the Silverdome is just atrocious. The echo is just off the charts. Same thing happened when we went to Cobo Hall in Detroit for a very special Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band anniversary of that classic double live bullet recording back in 1975. The Seeger production people had like 11 different cameras some even handheld at the event outside going in and along the floor and in the aisles and cameras everywhere else recording this with professional equipment and probably on audio digital. This was about 2005, 30th anniversary of the live bullet recording at Cobo hall.
And ever since, we've always thought there'd be a DVD and stuff of that epic show that we went to sitting in row 7 right in the front. The camera guy even came by us a couple times and turned and saw us partying and holding our drinks up and everything. And nothing has ever happened. No DVD has ever came out from seager. They probably just didn't like the way it looked and sounded. So they just forgot about it and it's just sitting somewhere. Maybe after he dies and stuff someone will buy the rights and put it together and put it out I don't know. I'm sure his children will probably do it eventually. But that's probably the reason you don't see film from this show either. They must have just thought it sucked
Thank you to everyone involved in releasing this. 👍❤️
Thanks to everyone involved with bringing this to the masses. This was a great way to start the last day of 2023.
They were in great form here.
Probably the best show from 77. Fantastic performance. I love the Since I've Been Loving You in this show. So glad to finally see the footage of it!
Absolutely stoked for this !! Zep -Head till I'm bagged and tagged 🤘🏼
I saw them this tour opening night at MSG on June 7th. The most impressive and powerful show I have ever been to.
I was there and a month and a half shy of graduating high school. Wow what a fantastic memory.
This is truly great. What an amazing way to end 2023 with the premiere of this footage.
Thank you to everyone involved for your hard work in making this possible.
And wishing Zep fans all around the world all the best for 2024
Amazing!! You guys are killing it!!!! God bless Speedy!!!! 🌈🤘
Thank you so much
The best footage of led zeppelin is here...
MANY THANKS to everyone involved in this project!! A truly special time in R n R history!
The footage shot by the professional cameras has to be somewhere. Let's hope it sees light of day!!
Pro shot has been long debunked sadly :(
@@VlogColtonbut there are more cameramen than performers on stage? How can it be debunked?
I'm sure Peter made sure to grab any and all film with the help of Cole & Binion.

Because they were just projector cameras, not any that had reels. :(
I drive past where the Silverdome used to be off of 59 and think about Zep playing there. On the property where the Silverdome used to be is now an Amazon distribution center. 😢😢
So stoked! Thank you to all involved for filming, transferring, and getting this released to the world!
Happy to be at the premiere for this legendary moment in bootleg and rock history. Glad to see y'all finally got the show of your dreams, even if it's not the stuff displayed on the screen. Incredible work. Happy new year, and as always, THANK YOU JIM KELLY. RIP
Was at the show in Atlanta the week before. 4/24/77. Still have the ticket stub. Best show from the greatest band ever!
Absolutely amazing, the highlight for me is the end guitar solo into Achilles Last Stand
I was there, after Achilles Last Stand, they did Stairway, Rock 'n Roll and ended with Trampled Under Foot.
All six nights at MSG I was there.. looking forward to this..
Was it hard to get tickets back then?
My uncle saw LED ZEPPELIN at the Atlanta pop festival when they were still called: The New Yardbirds! He knew Jimmy Page but was unprepared for the vocals of Robert Plant and the rhythm section of Bonham and Jones!
First thank you to everyone involved and the hard work that was put into this project and for sharing, you would think that after selling 76,200 tickets Zeppelin would plan on filming the concert, i don't think the cameramen onstage are just projecting the concert on the large screen i hope they filmed the show and maybe just maybe we'll see pro shot footage of this historic concert, again thank you for sharing this footage and Happy New Year to all.
I was thinking that they were shooting STTS???
Exciting!
Can't wait! Was a highlight of my life to be there! Thank you so much! -Bruce the Buckeye
Yours + this = history.
I was at this show! It was a fantastic concert that I will never forget! In fact after the concert the local radio station WWW4 FM played Led Zeppelin A-Z And I discovered Hey Hey What Can I do!
I'm from Michigan and I was 6 years old at the time, had no idea who Zeppelin was until 1980 and they became my all time favorite to this day!
Amazing that 45 years later I finally get to witness the last time they played in Michigan!
this will go down in history, great work man
Thank you so much to everyone involved. You can definitely tell speedy knew what he was doing. I know from experience how hard it is to shoot from general admission in front of the stage. The way he quickly repositioned to a better view off to jimmy’s side was very smart. How he managed to get that clear of a line of sight in itself is impressive with 70k people. Once again thank you. These films are an absolute pleasure to watch.
Your welcome
What a great show! Band was on fire this night. Sincere thanks to everyone involved.
Happy Twenty-Twenty-4our!!!
Thank you @speedyfilms @ledzepfilm @ikhnaton and everyone else involved in this production and premier today. To see this electric performance come to life on film was amazing to watch! The band truly was on FIRE this night in Pontiac! Thank you for bringing us these rare treasures/historical footage and this one was truly historic playing before a record crowd at the time. Can't wait for more great rock films in 2024!
Ten years gone, OMG!! MY FAV!!
This is the greatest thing I’ve seen in a long time.absolutely love it
Totally agree! Can’t believe all the hate in some of these comments! I’ll take any live Zeppelin! No matter what quality/condition.
the greatest live zeppelin drop since 9/19e 8mm
I was at the Ft. Worth, TX. show & I was 16 yrs. old. I still have the ticket stub.
47 years ago tonight. Still amazing, I've been to around 200 shows, nearly everyone that we all know and love. I rank them as this show, and everything else.

What a wonderful New Year’s Eve!!
I lived in Lansing when this happened. Was a huge Zeppelin fan and 13 years old. I was a small kid. Even though I had been to a few shows by that time they were mainly in our Civic Center that held about 5,000. This was around 80,000 people. My mother at the time, scared for my safety, wouldn’t allow me to go. At that time they only sold tickets from the box office windows. A buddy of mine, who was 17, went to get tickets and said it was chaos, people fighting their way to the front of the line with baseball bats. He managed to get a couple tickets so he’s there somewhere. He said the crowd was wild. I remember imagining the laser light cone surrounding Jimmy during Achilles. I was really pissed at my mother for a long time but I get it now
I was at this Show. I was 17. Something like 77000 people. Sound was terrible. However I’ll never forget it. Thanks for posting this!
WHAT A FLASHBACK !!! I was actually at that concert with Rusty Bearance (RIP old friend) on mescaline and shrooms...fell asleep after concert in the parking lot waiting for traffic to clear listening to a Zeppeiln 8Track . Woke up at 9 the next morning in an empty parking lot.....with a dead battery.
This is the most 70s story ever! 🤪🔨⚡️
Holy Grail
Yeah Zeppelin!!! Thanks speedy and everyone, can’t wait to see what else we got coming. 2024 is already big for Zep
Thank you beautiful people❤
All the best to you 2024 🥂
Let’s hope it doesn’t get taken down!
Would pay a lot to go back to 1977, all my favorite bands were touring. Led Zeppelin, Yes, Pink Floyd and ELP. What a great year for concerts.
Great things come to those who wait. Thank you to everyone involved for releasing this New Years Eve gift~
Rob/Boston
Absolutely Rob and we both know how ‘we’ were robbed of seeing them in Bostons due to the fans trashing the Garden in January ‘75 waiting for tickets to go on sale for a ‘scheduled’ February concert🤬
Zep was banned in Boston for good🤬
@@SteveRastaCahillconcertnetwork Yes indeed Steve. You definitely know your Boston/Zeppelin history. I had to see them in NY in 1977. I saw three out of the six shows. But I would have traded all three to see one show at the Boston Garden. I have spoken to two people who were waiting for tickets in 75. One of them got a ticket. But traded it back in for a refund. The other never got a ticket. Neither of them remembered if the craziness inside the Garden happened before or after the tickets went on sale. I spoke to Major White about his decision to ban Led Zeppelin for five years. He told me that he got a lot of backlash through the years from the fans. It sounded like he regretted doing it. Anyways. Happy New Year to you S~

I’m sooo jealous brother!
I would have given my right arm to have seen the original Zep!
I saw & recorded The Firm 01APR86 w/Virginia Wolf (Jason Bonham’s band) opening.
Also Plant & Page 10APR95 at the Garden.
My 1st concert was Lynyrd Skynyrd 22OCT76 at The Music Hall w/Be bop Deluxe opening.
I was only 13 (my older brother took me).
Cool how Jimmy’s using a Telecaster here on some of the tracks!
Happy New Year, cheers and be safe brother🍻
As is often the case with LZ, it's thanks to the fans, not official means that we get these precious gifts. Knowing how rare footage is, you watch this almost like you're peeking through a curtain at something you're not supposed to see😮 As the world's biggest Bonzo fangirl, I was delighted even just to see him smoking a cigarette and playing a tambourine❤ Thanks to all and RIP Speedy.
Wish List : I sure wish somebody would Liberate all the Earl's Court video, remaster it & release it.

@williamhiles7404 Agree. Anything they have in the vaults would be great. Do you know if TSRTS film exists without the bad members fantasy sequences? I feel there's a lot of great moments on stage at MSG that we missed cos of the 'acting' segments!
@@ellebrook3413those "acting" segments were apparently made because the crew that was supposed to be filming them did such a poor job of it
This brings back memories. I might have been within a few feet of that camera at the beginning. One of the kids I saw might have been me. This was my point of view at this concert. I was 16.
What a treat for Zeppelin fans! Thanks so much to all involved..🌹
I walked to this concert! 1/4 mile from my home in Bloomfield Orchards. My favorite band and I was 16...this video captures a very special night in my young life!
That. Is Just Eeefin Awesome you walking to the Best Concerts that I also
I also walked to the Seattle Kingdome to see The Mighty Zeppelin And it was explosively, a thing of beauty , that first was the 18:05 f
Wonderful. Thank you. Was 14 and living in the UK at the time, having just discovered the majesty of Led Zeppelin. Oh, for a time machine!
Went to a lot of big concerts like this one back in the 70s and thanks to quaaludes i don't remember the shows. Downers were everywhere in those days.
Superb, Spectacular, and SOoooo many thanks!!! And oh yes, another "S" word--SUBSCRIBED!
Was there wounderful 15 yrs old best time of my life best concert ever
Honored !! God Bless Speedy ! im from the suburbs of Detroit a 70s kid ... that was a Big concert that year... oh they were being videoed ........
Epic. Brilliant. Appreciated! I had tickets to their last tour when Bonham died. Page is on it here. Nice to see. Thank you for this. Happy New Year all!
This was a huge tour for Zeppelin, they were at their zenith at this time, 1977, look at Plant on stage, classic "rock god" poses and attitude ...and fortunate enough to hear some of "Ten Years Gone", might be my favorite Zep song, that with Kashmir....
My gosh…thank you so much!!! Grew up 20 mins from the Silverdome. Happy New Year and again….THANK YOU. You made this Zepp heads year. Cheers 🍻
Awesome I saw LED Zeppelin on the 28th of April 1977 Richfield colesium(Cleveland)
F’ing GREAT stuff man WOW!
Puts you right in the audience that night🔥Thank You Speedy🍻
Marvellous to see this, thanks to everyone involved especially the band.
Fabulous! A great piece of history! 👏🎶❤️
Oh hell yes!!!
I'm just speechless. I know it was only bits and pieces of a bootleg but having grown up in the metro Detroit area while Led Zeppelin (never saw LZ there, I was only 10 then and had no idea who they were for another three years; but I did see Pink Floyd there in 87, greatest concert ever) were in town at the Pontiac Silverdome just brought back so many things all over again. Highlights: Ten Years Gone, nearly cried. Moby Dick, so fluid.
