Ep. 275 – The Heart of Markness Led Zeppelin Podcast
This is a delightful recording of a confident young Zep playing The Schaefer Music Festival, Central Park, NYC, on July 21, 1969. It’s from a 1st gen reel and it sounds very good to these ears. The performance is, of course, glorious.
I play a frenetic proto-funky Communication Breakdown, You Shook Me which is as much Robert’s as it is Jimmy’s with that awesome harp playing. This song shines brightly for me. Maybe you’ll like it, too.
Then of course we finish strong with How Many More Times. Until Whole Lotta Love took over, this song was the vehicle for the medleys in which our boys loved to indulge. In this performance we get a teeny taste of Woody Woodpecker, You Make Feel So Young, For What It’s Worth, and a salacious and durrrrrrrty Lemon Song. It’s greasy greatness.
