Yea he looks really uncomfortable doesn’t he. Jimmy’s the king of the killer riff and this certainly would have been a Zeppelin anthem. The whole Coverdale Page episode is shrouded in rock folk law, probably the last time Page was at his most creative and it was not with Plant?
@@paulhoughton5431 I'm convinced that Page knew exactly how to get Plant's attention by playing to his ego. Back then Plant would routinely knock Coverdale's Whitesnake as a Zeppelin rip-off during interviews and such. Page knew what that name would do to Plant, and he was right. Even though, ironically, both of them released their best post-Zeppelin work. Page with Coverdale and Plant with Fate of Nations. The next thing they did was the unplugged sessions and they were on their way. Too bad they couldn't combine on the material of those two records, because Clarksdale was a mishmash of gray matter.
@@Ed9870 yea totally agree. I saw them in 98, Jimmy was playing very well(best he’d played for years) but Robert was going through the motion a bit, he was probably struggling vocally at 50 to do justice to material he’d sung decades before. I think Page struggles outside of the Zeppelin catalogue live, it’s a real shame he did not give it a go with Coverdale? I think he found DC’s personality a bit too ‘rich’ for his liking!
@@paulhoughton5431 Same here. Caught the 95 and 98 shows. Four piece in 98 was tremendous but I agree with you: Plant was getting it out of his system, while Jimmy was regaining his swagger. Credit to both for doing Celebration Day in 07. They deserved a proper send-off, the greatest rock and roll band ever.
Hhahahahahahahaha --- I clicked on this thinking that Coverdale looked very Plant-y in the thumbnail, not reading it correctly that it was "Page & PLANT" not "& Coverdale"! And I immediately see Plant and think, "Man, those were some lucky flies on that wall who witnessed Page bringing THIS to the rehearsal studio and putting his foot down to play it."
Unbelievable!I I Saw David Coverdale Singing Black Dog With Jimmy Page In 1993. I Then Saw Robert Plant Sing Shake My Tree With Jimmy Page In 1995. Fucking Amazing!!
@@signalsyyzand if anyone did see pathetic plant want to be David Coverdale trying to sing Black dog it was a Japan because that's the only shows they done for that pathetic album the US laughed at it
Yup, it was written for In Through The Out Door, as well as "Wearing and Tearing", and "Fire (Say You're Gonna Leave Me)." It was supposed to be a much heavier album than ITTOD became.
Wouldn't have missed this show for anything. Fabulous sh*+. Caught Plant Principle of Moments tour in ATX too. RIP BRYSON. Never forget watching this with my fellow guitar bud.
Saw this tour in Austin Tx....great event. They played "Lullaby" by the Cure. It actually was a great cover...but this song belongs to Coverdale 😎. Plant just does not have the chops for this song.
He’s almost doing a caricature here…not treating the song seriously. He could have put much more punch into it but held back because he just wasn’t into it, and was doing it as Jimmy’s insistence I’m sure. Too bad, because the other guys DID treat it seriously and did a damn fine job.
For a caricature, as you call it, Robert kills it, in my opinion. The other guy, Coverdale, took a song about sex seriously while Robert was there to show that he can simultaneously take the piss and out do Coverdale at his own game.
This song needs to be taken back in a time machine to 1976 and put on Presence. It is an individual song unto itself of course, but to me there's chunks of Nobody's Fault and Achilles. Quite a bit of Song Remains The Same also. Absolute fckng banger of a song that needed Plant's vocals on it in the first place as opposed to David Coverband.
I love Coverdale's but I agree that Plants raspy tone of 76 would do it wonders, for sure he would've sung it differently, to me Coverdale imitated Axel Rose on the chorus and Axel imitated 73 Plant.
It was written for In Through The Out Door in 1978, as well as "Wearing and Tearing", and "Fire (Say You're Gonna Leave Me)." ITTOD was supposed to be a much heavier album than it became.
People teasing Plant in the comments, at that point Plannt had nothing left to prove, he'd been the king since the 60's annd if it wasn't for him this vocal style would have never been, people forget that. There's Plant and then there's everybody who came after.
This is THE best version of this song from the tour. The whole theremin part is perfectly done. The way they ease on into it and the way it culminates at the end.
Agree, he may have done it under pressure from JP as the Page /Coverdale LP sold very well. Better than "Fate". Oddly enuf, I don't see a lot of difference in how Coverdale and Plant looked in dress style when performing back then on stage w/Page. Could almost be twins in their attire and look.
I really like how Robert sings Shake My Tree, hearing Robert sing this song is like sipping on a smooth glass of very expensive wine and when I hear David sing this same song, it’s like trying to choke down some really bitter dark beer, it’s strong, overpowering and in your face.
Robert is amazing in this, he really is the tall cool one. I don't even listen to the original anymore because it pales in comparison this tour de force.
I saw this tour at the Gorge in George Washington state in '95 with a 60 piece orchestra best concert I've ever seen besides the Roger Waters concert when he had his pilot fly sideways over the crowd in his 737 jet.around the same era. But plant and page did not perform this song for some reason. But I did here Robert plant refered to this song as a zep song originally recorded by David Cover version 😂😂😂. But even still I've seen over a hundred live shows in my life and those 2 stand out above all others for sure, just an incredible place to see a show, number one place in the world followed closely by redeock
Did he break into a theramin solo on this? And Plant singing it? I always thought this album would have been better recorded by Led Zeppelin. Awesome as hell to know this happened!
By far, this song belongs to David Coverdale. I must confess to being biased. I am a huge fan of Coverdale. I like Robert Plant. However, Plant is an amazing singer in his own right. I just have a preference for David Coverdale
I am surpirised Plant would sing it considering it is a Coverdale song. It is no secret that he is not a fan of Mr Coverdale. He looked and sounded very uncomfortable. Perhaps, he did it as a favor to Page
It's apples and oranges-both are/were pretty much on the same level and as I've stated elsewhere- Coverdale/Page was Led Zeppelin II and should have done more music !!!###
A rare sighting of Mr P tackling a Coverdale lyric. Robert embellished it in a live setting. Good to see Coverdale/Page shows up in Y.T. Had they toured the U.K, I would have been there.
Chris Andrews- This number is being played live. If you know Zeppelin and its members then you know that they never performed songs like they did on record.
I don't think he had to try too hard to talk Plant into it. I bet there was a side of Plant that said let me show you what I can do with this. I'm sure Plant had heard lots of about the Coverdale Page union, and wanted to throw down a little
I think this is a great rendition of the song and I listened to the record version. Plant just did his own thing with it, though I'm he sure he didn't really care to cover a copycat. May have been a favor to Page.
@@SealofPerfection, unfortunately I must agree :-( Although he seems to be stuck in a rut, Coverdale does his own stuff very badly lately. Beside it being repetitive, it also lacks depth and fire. Plant, at least, is still creative and - although not always - still hits the right fresh tone.
Fuck this song sounds sooo much better with Plant. Even tho he doesn't have the same range he just sounds RIGHT over Pages riffs. While Coverdale hit all the notes like classic Plant there was just something not 100% right with his voice with Jimmy.
I saw both tours they did I. The 90’s both I liked and both were different- the 98’ tour was better imo- the crowd was blown away by the power of the 4 piece and I will never forget the literally whaling in the stairways out through the stadium doors - ppl just out of their minds in one community roar - it was ridiculous -
It amazes me that Plant went along with this. And yes, he looks a little uncomfortable. But you know what? He did it better than Coverdale. And I'm a Coverdale fan.
@@albertolizarraga5477- Coverdale is a copycat mate. Third rate metal wannabe. He was Paul Rodgers in the 70s then tried a hand at being Plant in the 80s.
Saw them at Irvine Meadows back then......Also saw Zeppelin at the Fabulous Forum in Inglewood back in 78'......The World's Best........They were so incredible together......Plant with his band now is very good......Page doesn't do too much anymore.....Why ?....Even Plant wants to know why.......
Page retired from live performances back in 2000, the O2 got his juices going but Robert was not interested. Jimmy suffered a lot of back pain touring, I think he’s happy with his catalogue of incredible work.
Good frickin' god, I can actually see why DC (as genuinely amazing and accomplished as he is) was intimidated by Robert Plant. Some reading this will get it and some won't. Use your ears.
I would've loved to have seen Plant's face when they were putting a set list together and Page tossed this grenade into the room.

Shake my tree is an old blues song it is not David Coverdale the Robert plant wannabes song
Page was playing METAL music on that album. Heaviest riffs we'll ever hear from him
Hell ya!
That's got to be one of the baddest riffs in rock history. Pure Page.
RIP Michael Lee.. Miss his drumming
95-98 Jimmy had really gotten most of his mojo back... his performances of HMMT w/ Plant were spectacular.
Getting off heroin definitely helped.
Mr Michael Lee, how we miss thee.
Thanks for posting Randy. I was at this show as well as the night before. They killed it both nights! So good I still think back 22 years later.
Прекрасный состав музыкантов!
Браво Пейдж, браво Плант!!!
I saw this tour in Dallas Texas at the old reunion arena
Transperformance baby! what a sound!
I could swear I read that Page had written this for the next (never to be) Zep album.
The intro riff was written during In Through the Out Door sessions but never used until this song
Yup, it was written for In Through The Out Door, as well as "Wearing and Tearing", and "Fire (Say You're Gonna Leave Me)." It was supposed to be a much heavier album than ITTOD became.
Page is hitting like Muhammad Ali on that guitar

What a trip Robert singing David. I was there
Plant: first a Steve Marriott wanna be...than a Coverdale wanna be.
HAHAHAHA you're fucking hilarious

I have no words wow those 2 were and are the baddest asses there's ever been ❤❤
I attended the San Diego show they played a few nights before this one. Outstanding!
Me too! I was at that one AND this one! Both great performances!
Awesome show. Was there second night...Forum. My buddy and I were 18 hahaha we were so buzzed over this show
Love Page still doing his moves as best he can.
A riff that Page played during the In through the out door sessions but i dont think the others were interested in doing it.
I was there! Great western forum Inglewood California!!!
Was there too!!! Second show on the floor. 11 rows back

I don't know he didn't next level it..
@@joeyhuebner10why are you so bitter? Your obsession with chatting shit about DC is honestly pathetic and you really need to get a new hobby.
B.A. guitar riff, of course. Both legends, plus drove R.P. to collaborate again!
Awesome album
Os deuses do Rock sem mais palavras
plant brought his A game for this...for obvious reasons...this is Coverdales though ,but plant sang it well
I think the Coverdale Page studio version is better. IMHO

Its a little hard to listen too. DC makes it work.

I was there and at Manchester too.
You've got to be kidding me - Plant actually played one of the Coverdale tunes? Can't believe he would allow himself to do that. Sounds damn good BTW.

Oddly enuf, I don't see a lot of difference in how Coverdale and Plant looked in dress style when performing back then on stage w/Page.
Could almost be twins in their attire and look.
Are you kidding? Coverdale blew Plant away. That’s why it’s embarrassing for Plant. He’s great but Coverdale is unreal.
and he sucked. Coverdale proved that he could sing Zepp songs by the early '90s. Plant proved that he was done by the early '90s
Mailed it in. I was at this show.

Not a bad song. Made fantastic by the only vocalist that matters. As always great performance by Page and Plant . Love Plant s voice .
