Ep. 303 – The Heart of Markness Led Zeppelin Podcast
The 1996 Page/Plant tour of Japan has been extremely well regarded, and documented, for close to 30 years. Thanks to the fantastic audio and video captured, with the ok of the band, by Third Eye, we have a magnificent full stereo recording of February 12, 1996 in Tokyo.
We hear a tender Tea for One (only ever played on this tour) with orchestra, a brilliant and bombastic Babe I’m Gonna Leave You, with a nice Stairway tease, and a supremely tight and cool af Whole Lotta Love, which contains the original, the Knebworth version, and new sections exclusive to the Page/Plant partnership. It’s awesome. The whole show.
