Review 1:
The coup-de-grace is Bonzo's drumming throughout the whole tape! "Communication Breakdown" has Plant substituting his "banshee-scream" before the solo w/ a growl. I can't really do it justice, here you just have to hear it for yourselves. I really like the intro to "CB" slow intro and then before you know what hit you----a rainstorm of drums and guitar! Incidentally the same arrangement was used in the 1/26 concert---but you wouldn't know it, b/c the way they were playing then, was so fresh, and innovative! Back to "Communication Breakdown" Plant actually loses his cool and yells at the audience to "HANG ABOUT!!" They were begging for an encore, but he thought they'd be cutting into the 2nd set! It turns out that they got the okay, and off they went! A vivid reminder of the early, ramshackle days of Led Zeppelin! Where there were four musicians on stage, and little else! What more could you ask for!

Review 2:
This is all that is known to exist of this show, and it is a shame ... this is great one! Robert is hoarse with a sore throat but his singing is still gutsy and the band is unreal, especially on Dazed and Confused. The group experienced some of equipment problems which caused the long delays between the songs so Robert leading to request the audience, "Has anybody got a Les Paul? Jeff who? Tell him to bring it here then!" As the band took the stage for the encore, Plant saying "I tell you what! This is the third night and we've decided that we're gonna come and live here, 'cos you're so nice! If we don't make it, then the police in England would rather we'd stay there!"
