DAY 5; FESTIVAL HALL,
OSAKA SEPTEMBER 29, 1971
One of the most famous and bootlegged Led Zeppelin shows of all, the performance lives up to the reputation. The band is clearly determined to have a fitting send off to such an amazing tour. Plant’s voice is showing some signs of straining here and there, being the third show in as many days. He’s not bad by any means, but one can particularly hear him struggling a bit during the first few songs. As such, this is probably his weakest show of the tour. Page, by contrast, is perhaps having his best night of the whole tour. His soloing is out of this world, as can be heard on songs like Immigrant Song, Heartbreaker, Since I’ve Been Loving You, Dazed And Confused, Celebration Day, and Whole Lotta Love.
This show has many strong highlights, including the longest version of Immigrant Song ever with a wild wah-wah guitar solo. Following flawless versions of Heartbreaker, Since I’ve Been Loving You and Black Dog, the band embarks on an incredibly epic Dazed And Confused, clocking in at nearly 31 minutes (the longest version up to that point), and featuring a spontaneous, haunting version of Pennies From Heaven. The acoustic set once again includes rarities such as the first and only live performance of Friends, a snippet of Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, and the longest version of Going To California ever. Some humorous banter with Bonzo can be heard as he refuses to rejoin the band (there are rumors that he ate some local cuisine that disagreed with him). The drum solo here is up there with one of the best versions ever, as Bonzo experiments with some military style drum beats.
The Whole Lotta Love medley is once again a major highlight, clocking in at over 31 minutes, and features rarities such as I Gotta Know, Twist And Shout, Fortune Teller, and Good Times Bad Times. The show closes with three encores, including the only version of Rock And Roll from the tour. A truly amazing performance that does an excellent job of summing up just what made this tour so special.
