Notes (Excerpts from The Concert File):

Tonight's show got off to a sluggish start, but soon settled into a comfortable groove. Plant was struggling in places and seemed to be deliberately aiming at a lower register so as not to force his voice too much - only reaching for the high notes on a few occasions.

Page's playing was extremely loose, verging on sloppy in places, particularly on TSRTS. D&C was overflowing in energy, leading to near chaos in several instances. Page even attempted several runs deploying riffs later to be used on "Hots on for Nowhere". WLL was also outstanding and included a version of the Isley Brothers' "It's Your Thing".
