I put this on for my 5 year old daughter and her three cousins and they watched without saying a word. When it finished I said 'How cool was that!' One said 'He has pretty hair.' I asked 'Did you like the song?' and they all said it was like magic. Thank you James Patrick Page! :)
Way to go. Getting to appreciation early. I just took my 16 year old son to GTLO last week and I started playing the live concerts for him. We didn’t have that growing up and we got gem after gem of live shows on video 2 or so years ago. We never had that Just like this, it’s so beautiful. We are so blessed seeing this and all the latest concerts and footage that have been released.
Greatness always reaches out and touches souls across barriers of time, space, age, what have you. Reminded me of the time I first played Hendrix for my lil girl, all of 3 years old. She listened, wide-eyed, and as the last notes of Voodoo Child died away, she asked "what was that, papa?" I said, that was Jimi Hendrix, he's playing the guitar. (yes, she knew what a guitar was, because she'd seen mine....such as it is!) She was quite for a moment, and then asks, "can i have a guitar like Jimi Hendrix's, papa?" And i said of course you can, darling, and thought: just as soon as you are as big as the guitar!
This is why Clapton will always be wrong about Page. Page could play sweet harmony and melodic tones, but he could also give you the raw thrash that your heart desires. Clapton never could get that raw intensity that Page could. IMO Page is way better than Clapton. RIP Claptons Hands
Clapton never strayed far from the blues. Page knew no musical boundaries. That's what made Led Zeppelin so exciting. What Page is doing here is clearly influenced by Indian music.
Constantine i honestly never understood why Hendrix is lumped in with page all the time, Hendrix was great yes. Innovative? Yes he was but did he ever actually sit down to a full crowd and do something like this? Did he play the music that is what zep is known for? No he got big because his technique was great, I’m not denying that but you will never top page for his influences, his absolute understanding of not understanding method and that’s why he’s better
@@oujiascrabble He was having fun with the DADGAD tuning on that Danelectro. Probably his favorite non standard tuning although he did use others like open C in Bron Yr Aur and open G.
We have to remind ourselves how lucky we are to have this footage saved for all time. Currently massively grateful to see this legend in his prime in an age decades before my own
What were they like at that age? Were they wild in public? Lol I always wondered how they acted in front of people , being a fan for a long time since I first hear them stairway to heaven which about 15 years now, I always wanted to meet them sit and talk about they're adventures being young and everything . I'm pretty sure I'd would of done the same stuff as them lol they seem fun :)
He just plays all the right notes. That’s the only way I can describe it. He is the most expressive emotional player of all time. Pure creative genius and talent.
It’s not “especially” open tunings! He had such a masterful knowledge of musical theory and a creative way of looking at the guitar that he literally created and adapted the tuning to be able to reach the notes he intended to play!! I can hardly hit the notes I want to play in my mind in standard tuning, so I am awestruck every time I watch him play!
It’s mind boggling just how good Led Zeppelin was. jimmy page was the most expressive player of all time. Love this Indian classical number. I can feel the emotion flowing through jimmy page and his fingers and coming out of the guitar. Greatest band of all time and it’s not close.
How about that? Jimmy Page was note perfect, Robert was his charming self, Bonzo the magician--and I have to repeat my favorite anecdote from Robert Plant the first time he met Bonzo. I think it went something like this, Page had just done a performance with Plant and Jones and someone playing drums and after the gig, Bonzo came up to Plant and said, "What you need is the greatest drummer in the world." And Robert Plant answered, "And I suppose that's you?" And of course it was. To reiterate, one of the most innovative, talented and creative rock bands in the world hung up their guns when the irreplacable Bonzo died. Apparently, his playing was what make the band come together. He had such fantastic rolls and taps and hits and clings, that without him the band simply was without its musical motor. His fills are legendary; what he was was Jimmy Page on drums. He was Jimmy's twin. We thank these lads for giving us the dream that will never die of life in the time of Led Zepelin. You have saved a generation of people from growing old in their minds.
Robert Plant spoke those words in an interview with English radio station. One got the feeling they hit it off right away. What they say about the sixties is that if you remember what happened, you weren't there. I'll try to find the broadcast. It was his words and Bonham can't say. I was repeating his anecdote. But hey, ask him? I think he will answer you.
I have watched this nearly every day since I found it, and will continue to until the day I die. Mastery of the guitar in every sense of the word. For those who don’t know the context, this was Led Zeppelin’s “coming our party”. They had something to prove. This was the biggest venue in England at the time, and Page felt like he had to silence the haters. This piece is purely a showing of skill and mastery by Page to show that Zeppelin were here, and here to stay.
I’ve listened to Led Zeppelin ever since I was a child but I should look into their history more thanks for sharing that, Jimmy Page is literally the only reason I ever wanted to play a guitar from the first time I heard him. Best guitar player ever born imo.

This is why Jimmy Page is the best guitar player of all time. This one performance. It says everything. An emotional experience. Could you really see Keith Richards or Pete Townshend do something like this?
Wyatt G I just think they’re different, and both otherworldly. It’s hard for me to rank musicians because art is not black or white or a competition (probably why the Grammy’s piss me off so much haha). Definitely still fun to compare though!
is mean he IS the greatest guitarist ever (electric, not acoustic) but this song isn't really why. the real reason is what he did behind the mixing board as a producer and engineer. that's what puts him one step above the pure guitarist like hendrix or just a virtuoso with little imagination like malmsteen
This is a great guitar piece. I like how John Bonham accents Jimmy Page here. He nailed Jim McCarty's drumming on the Yardbird's version of White Summer perfectly here. Jim McCarty is a great drummer, but John Bonham was on a whole different level.
I missed The Yardbirds almost entirely; I was too young and, moreover, completely removed by a gulf of distance from world culture, having been born into a remote and isolated industrial backwater plunked into a dark, cold and endless Canadian forest. But thanks to a friend's older brother, I was there for the inception of Led Zeppelin, on vinyl at least; and from that moment on, THAT music (the first SIX albums) was probably the most important thing in my life, from 1969 through 1975, at which point I rejected the past and my life and my origins, and I moved away from home and never returned. And I sold those records, maybe for other records, maybe for food. But it's only now that I begin to truly understand the importance and lofty achievement of Jimmy Page, completely aside from rock and from fame, and his place in the world alongside Davey Graham, and the traditions of English folk music, and Gnawa, and south Indian classical music, and the exodus of musical cultures from north and east Africa, by way of the rural south in the United States, and a host of other influences, and how he, in his own original ways, carried these holy grails forward. I'm learning how to play some of these things on the acoustic steel-string guitar now, and it raises my spirit to find myself come full circle. The end is the beginning.
@@glennleonard3362 Yes and? Plus, if you compare to the original, it's miles apart. Like saying "Nobody's fault but mine" is just a cheap copy of Blind Willie Johnson lol
2:34 does anyone else feel that it’s just a silent little tune and you can see in jimmys face he went into some sort of trance I felt that he felt it too 💗💗 so euphoric
I find it so great that Jimmy Page originally performed this with the Yardbirds, and then continued to play it through many performances with Led Zeppelin! Shows how much Jimmy cherished this piece. Led Zeppelin FOREVER!!!
Holy shit man I thought the acoustic version was amazing....this version is extraterrestrial out of this fricken world man. Y’all have no idea how much I dream of being at a Led Zeppelin concert I was born in 2003 when I should have been born in the 40s or 50s.

Bars, live local festivals etc. Stuff is out there, tho now we can't find anything close to Jimmy playing like this!!♥️
This performance is something i’ll be watching for the rest of my life... and I’ve just turned twenty. Led Zeppelin is something that transcends time and you & I will be the lucky ones to watch that happen years down the road.
@@QuantumLeap89 No, he would be human and that would make him even more perfect in my eyes. The fact that he has strange quirks and passions means he's REAL, and that's as sexy as you can get.
I just sent this to my nephew today. He's really improving daily. He likes heavy guitar kerchunks but I've been trying to stress feel, tonal quality... Kids learn FAST. Clapton and Page are magic. Just different styles. I love them both. Hendrix too..ALL KINGS.
This is the reasonn why I bought a Danelectro,,, a very humble obtainable guitar but Jimmy heard the potential of the instrument and got the sound he was after with it. Randy California of the band Spirit heard it too. There was a time you couldnt even give em away. Just like the Stratocaster , before Hendrix , nobody wanted anything to do with them. Now everyone has to have one. The rest is history. Rock on JP. You have our full attention. DD in L.A.
Yes. People who say they don't like this want that pop sound. I am 57 years old and never heard it before. When we were tripping together on Led Zeppelin in the 1970s we didn't have access to these performances. Sure, we would like to have heard it, but I am in the 2020s and appreciate the talent.
This is what you get when 4 Master Musician's come together never again will you see this..Love Jimmy I could watch this over and over again bad ass greatest guitarist the world has ever seen 💕
This will always be a classic. I cried after listening to God strum the guitar with his sheer talent. This video changed my life forever. I am forever grateful to music
02:03 John "the god of drumming" Bonham has joined Jimmy "the mage of the guitar" Page in attempt to elevate the audience to the seventh sphere of existence. This is beyond superlatives.
Just casualy not looking at the fretboard while flying over it. I love Jimmy so much. He's the reason I picked up electric guitar and the reason my first electric was a Les Paul.
Bought the How the West Was Won DVD when I was 15, and just worshipped this and other songs from this concert. Only now is the rest of the world catching up.
never forget getting mothership back in the fifth grade and popping in the DVD and watching this whole show in one sitting. blew my mind and changed my life forever and still the epitome of cool to me. thank you jimmy, thank you led zep
.....i listen LED ZEPPELIN from 1970 . Incredibly architecture in XXth century !!!!!! This is High Class of High Art !!! Music for All the Time FOREVER !!!!!! ........alex vitebsk Belarus 🎩
The one thing about Jimmy Page was that his sound was raw, he never tried to recreate the studio version sound of his work. He may be choppy at times but that’s just how it is playing the guitar! I love it!
So much for Jimmy's alleged sloppiness live: a brilliant performance and, had I been there and the rest of the numbers of this standard (likely), I think my head might have blown up!
His “sloppiness” is a bit of a punk rock aspect to Jimmy, pure raw, alive, and purely in the moment. The imperfections are part of him expressing his soul live and not just playing a written part straight.
It's fascinating and unreal. I can't help but think about Charlotte who was backstage, I feel that if I had been in her place, I might have fainted with admiration. I've never felt that before and I will never feel it again.

And time has conveniently stopped whenever white summer is being played. At least for the last 50 years
If I could learn this, I’d be content with my life.

Or take some drugs and pick up your guitar…then crush some hammer-ons spastically, yet precisely.

How has this had only 90k views, what is everyone else watching??! What legends page and Bonham are
Perhaps they already own it on DVD like me. 😎
Who is still out here in 2022 listening to this great performance? #Ijustcreamedinmypants
9:54- 10:09 sounds like one of those jams Pink Floyd would have done in the early years. Ethereal and mystical sounding. Very psychedelic
Very true
I really want the tabs for that part ,it's so good
@@osama_salem just look white summer tabs live and you will find it.
Hey You
@@GeneralArtisan out there in the cold?
That is how guitar is played.
2:51-3:04 is literally the craziest lick I’ve ever heard in my life
Of all my music loving friends I try tj talk about Zeppelin and they say "I know" until I show them this. Same thing. Jaw drop.
I have now witnessed my end musical goal
8:15 is such an incredible drop. The groove is so deep and the tone fills the arena with a sound like a small army marching.
I can listen to this song many of times, without getting tired to be fascinated.
Absolutely it’s a masterpiece!
This is why I play guitar
He was the most creative out of all the yardbirds guitarists.
So insanely wonderful there isn;t a word to describe it
I just sent this to my nephew today.
He's really improving daily. He likes heavy guitar kerchunks but I've been trying to stress feel, tonal quality...
Kids learn FAST.
Clapton and Page are magic. Just different styles. I love them both. Hendrix too..ALL KINGS.
THE LAYERS? Holy Shit! best guitar playing ive heard lately. happened 50+ years or so ago! We are still chasing that sound!
This is the reasonn why I bought a Danelectro,,, a very humble obtainable guitar but Jimmy heard the potential of the instrument and got the sound he was after with it. Randy California of the band Spirit heard it too. There was a time you couldnt even give em away. Just like the Stratocaster , before Hendrix , nobody wanted anything to do with them. Now everyone has to have one. The rest is history. Rock on JP. You have our full attention. DD in L.A.
Yes. People who say they don't like this want that pop sound. I am 57 years old and never heard it before.
When we were tripping together on Led Zeppelin in the 1970s we didn't have access to these performances. Sure, we would like to have heard it, but I am in the 2020s and appreciate the talent.
Jon were still here still tripping. It lives on brother
Jimmy and brilliant John Bonham on drums leisurely sipping whiskey; My favourite piece by Zeppelins;
This is what you get when 4 Master Musician's come together never again will you see this..Love Jimmy I could watch this over and over again bad ass greatest guitarist the world has ever seen 💕
NO DOUBT!!!!!
@@constantine7382 Hands down 👍
I love Robert's comment at the start "A song called "White Summer", that changes every day [curses!!] .... Jimmy Page!!"
God exists and bears the name of Jimmy Page
Love how cool page is as he wipes his fingers on his trousers whilst playing, not missing a note
Maybe this is best performance ever filmed. Imagine all those concerts which are not filmed...
54 years ago .... today! I've been listening to this tune for over 30 years.
This will always be a classic. I cried after listening to God strum the guitar with his sheer talent. This video changed my life forever. I am forever grateful to music
Bonham is a monster on this
02:03 John "the god of drumming" Bonham has joined Jimmy "the mage of the guitar" Page in attempt to elevate the audience to the seventh sphere of existence.
This is beyond superlatives.
Just casualy not looking at the fretboard while flying over it. I love Jimmy so much. He's the reason I picked up electric guitar and the reason my first electric was a Les Paul.
Every artist, writer, painter, singer and fighter surely had a magical stuff that can't be re-created even if they tried themselves ❤️
Bought the How the West Was Won DVD when I was 15, and just worshipped this and other songs from this concert. Only now is the rest of the world catching up.
never forget getting mothership back in the fifth grade and popping in the DVD and watching this whole show in one sitting. blew my mind and changed my life forever and still the epitome of cool to me. thank you jimmy, thank you led zep
.....i listen LED ZEPPELIN from 1970 . Incredibly architecture in XXth century !!!!!! This is High Class of High Art !!! Music for All the Time FOREVER !!!!!! ........alex vitebsk Belarus 🎩
I've never heard this beautuful song. Takes youve places your never been..
dipping into ethnic mediterranean sounds ..at 3:23....Love it.
that's Indian music.
@@apurvsingh5541 have you heard Pontian music, (Lyra instrument)
annarks no , my bad. Will listen to it.
This is Indian classical.
@@chuckydombroski have listen to Pontian greek music, Rembetika music. btw I'm Greek
The one thing about Jimmy Page was that his sound was raw, he never tried to recreate the studio version sound of his work. He may be choppy at times but that’s just how it is playing the guitar! I love it!
This song will make a grown man weep.
Think I've watched this over a thousand times at this point...Some insane picking
Unbelievable. Truly incredible
Jimmy Page....um monstro da guitarra!!!!!
i think he played guitar in the cuna, je je je
Точнее гитарный урод😂
So much for Jimmy's alleged sloppiness live: a brilliant performance and, had I been there and the rest of the numbers of this standard (likely), I think my head might have blown up!
His “sloppiness” is a bit of a punk rock aspect to Jimmy, pure raw, alive, and purely in the moment. The imperfections are part of him expressing his soul live and not just playing a written part straight.
I take a shock every time when I listen and see a perfomance like this...acoustic or electric version. remains a a Jimmy's masterpiece! WALTER
One of the best live performances by any human in any medium. Period.
It's fascinating and unreal. I can't help but think about Charlotte who was backstage, I feel that if I had been in her place, I might have fainted with admiration. I've never felt that before and I will never feel it again.

@@jimmypage1589 sure bruh
Marvelous!!! One way or another it brings back memories to fairport Convention's ..... The deserter??? ..... something from Liege and Lief!
I like it when Jimmy wipes his left fingers on his leg at 4:16. It's the little things that count sometimes. Love love love it !
The man is legend!
First time I hear this version. Always heard the live yardbirds version of white summer, WOW what a difference!
Godlike and heavenly all at once! White Summer indeed!
This is my favorite performance of this ever!
Boomers and beyond are blessed to have musical treats this in our lives ❤
Page... no other commentary needed.
otherworldly sounds: 6:38, 7:42, 8:15
Absolutely stunning performance on his 26th Birthday. Pure shredding and nuance at its finest. The Cosmic Master @ work....
I'm falling into a blissful trance.... Whoaaaaa
Torrential!!!
Beautiful, with hints of Black Mountain Side throughout.
Long Live Jimmy Page! 🎼🙏
Im saying it again at that time it was not jimmy playin the guitar it was the black man who tuned robert johnson guitar
It is so chilling
ik exactly what you’re talking about bc i saw it myself but it’s very fascinating and intriguing to me. i almost wish it were me that was in contact with that spirit
Get screwed.
@@chrisiollich4890 You get screwed you idiot.
