	It really is lol I have the live version and it pretty much dominates They were great live.. not the same... psychicness of Zeppelin.. But they had a really cool unique live sound Plus they were just crazy

No Picture Chad Wanna Be	#5 by Chad Husky at Aug 28, 1992 at 1:16 PM EST
	Ill check them sets on youtube Mose Allison, yeh , heard them explain about 'da jazz sage' on Live at Leeds when I checked that. Its a tune man, the who were so tight musically. Bad ass music The WHO are fuckin lethal, the best set of musicians in a band for me man.

No Picture Jack Average	#6 by Jack at May 4, 1994 at 3:33 PM EST
	My mom and aaunt saw Zep on the US '77 tour. Both said it was the worst show they'd ever been to. Page seemingly forgot how to play halfway through and they were basically wobbling around and hitting a random note on an out-of-tune guitar and bass and just wacking away at the floor tom while Plant mumbled random bullshit.

No Picture Jami Average	#7 by Jami B. at Apr 21, 2004 at 11:08 AM EST
	Actually, I have a playlist of this on youtube... live at the Isle of Wight '69, in London c. Dec '69, at the Tanglewood Music Shed July of '70, the Isle of Wight '70, again in '74, and finally in Chicago in '79. I also have 2 or 3 covers included. Too bad there ain't video footaage of the Leeds version- but that one is a bit clean for me anyway.
