Ep. 306 – The Heart of Markness Led Zeppelin Podcast

On July 1, 1980 Santana played Frankfurt, Germany at the same venue in which Led Zeppelin played the night before. Jimmy Page hung around and attended the show, and even joined the band for a couple of tunes.

What is noteworthy is how good the jams are. 1980 Jimmy can be very hit or miss. This is a hit. A hit out of the park. First of all Santana is an incredible band as is the recording (Master Soundboard) which was remastered by Dario Romero. They did a great job.

I play a raucous and extremely tight Shake Your Moneymaker where Jimmy easily matches Carlos lick for lick. It’s great. I then play Evil Ways which says it has Jimmy on it but I’m not too sure. Still a great performance from a great band.

Ep. 282 – The Heart of Markness Led Zeppelin Podcast

Bonzo is the star of this show. Led Zeppelin in St. Paul, Minnesota July, 9, 1973 is a top tier NA 1973 show. Jimmy and Jonesy are on fire, but John Bonham is head and shoulders above them this night. He plays stuff I’ve not heard before, adding complexity to Heartbreaker and ingenuity to No Quarter and, and bombastic fire to Whole Lotta Love.

The band playing at full tilt reminds one of a cheetah running at top speed in pursuit of prey. Absolute beauty and grace. I must confess, I have covered this show before (Ep. 206) but this recording is a brand new remaster by Dario Romero, and it’s totally worth the repeat performance. The only repeated song is No Quarter, and it’s totally worth the additional listen.

Ep. 228 – The Heart of Markness Led Zeppelin Podcast

We hear a remaster of Led Zeppelin’s first concert in two years, July 23, 1979 in Copenhagen, DK. The sound is stellar as is the performance. Everyone involved was eager to prove that there was still gas in the tank.
A unique peek at late era Zep playing a small 1000ish capacity venue a week before playing Knebworth in front of hundreds of thousands.
