a frequent destination for Led Zeppelin
tours the Royal Orleans Hotel was built
in 1960 on the structure of the Old
Saint Louis Hotel ruined by the 1915 New
Orleans Hurricane the Dublin stayed here
during their 1973 and 1977 tours lyrics
Wise airing poetry but a nasty practical
joke and Jab by Robert Plant the song is
about John Paul Jones who picked up a
drag queen and went to his room they
smoked a joint and fell asleep her room
was allegedly burned down as the lid
spliff fell to the ground unlike their
previous records this is Robert's first
mention of someone from the band exposed
to the public presence was a turning
point for plants riding as he addressed
his own Recollections and battles within
the organization like his very own swan
song John Paul Jones quote Oh that was
Robert in his usual homophobic manner
everybody knew who those drag queens
were they were friends of Richard Cole
and yes we knew they were transvestites
we were friends her name was Stephanie
we'd seen her every time we go to New
Orleans but Robert was a bit provincial
they were in like big city boys they
don't like that sort of thing they were
friends of the band for God's sake you
know now on to the music we have a
distinctive intro with guitar space and
drums playing in unison the intro Rift
seems to be inspired by Deep purple's
coronary Stradic from 1974. back
[Music]
[Applause]
The Sun Also borrows from one of the
Rhythm sections from In My Time of Dying
Plus at an inventive guitar harmonies by
Paige with its Funk inspired verse it's
the cousin to the crunch
a small modulation and trick to have
sharp occurs during the guitar solo in
the same vein of over the hills and far
away some people say there's a slight
inference of the meters 60 strut in here
which I can understand in shape and form
but I didn't really hear it on Royal
Orleans fun fact the meters were the
backup Banner for authentic records
party in New Orleans during the Dublin's
1973 tour the 2015 deluxe edition of
presence gave us a rough mix of Royal
Orleans with a mysterious and hilarious
vocal track people claim it's Bonzo
others say it's Robert or drumple Jones
I would like to know your thoughts in
the comment section I think it's Bonzo
so

Royal leans based around the Walters
walk riff again man the Jimmy maximizes
potential making Stevia on the 1972

love the start and stop Dynamics to
further amplify a hard rocking Groove
and this is no exception it's
deceptively simple but once you take a
closer look at the drum bass and guitar
sections things can get crazy very
quickly with display speeds tricky riffs
and grooves that grow tighter with each
bar there's a drum beat around the 420
Mark that sounds like bonds are losing
it for a second once you hear it you
cannot unhear it the chorus is played
over a familiar Eda chord progression
like communication breakdown and
although it sounds like a party where
everyone's having a good time the lyrics
find Robert talking about his
frustration after the car accident and
The Vibes within the organization he
filled Jimmy Page and Peter Graham did
not understand his situation and point
of view Robert's words here are very
straightforward and without him knowing
foresee future devastating events plan
growing unhappy and Page carrying on
with the show seems like a wound that
never healed I'm surprised 1980s Robert
Plant never played this song The
depressing verses against the exciting
and happy cores are disturbing once you
think of the events of 1977 and how they
happen in the midst of the rock and roll
Carousel because the song has no slow
section it creates a feeling of
isolation in a way that's conceptual
intriguing and speaks of how Robert was
kind of ignored really how can no one in
the band realize what he was talking
about I wonder here's a look at the
lyrics I was burned in the Heat of the
Moment no it could have been the heat of
the day when I learned how my time had
been wasted dear fellows I turned away
now I've got friends who will give me
their shoulder when it should happen to
fall the timing is Right growing older
I've got friends who will give me [ __ ]
off as the moon of the Stars call the
order inside my tide stands the open
sway the sun in my cell is sinking lower
while the Hope in my hands turns to Clay
I don't ask them I feels full of clover
I don't want an opportunities door if
you ask my advice take it slower then
your story beat your finest reward quite
a shame this one was never performed
live as it fits the 70s Vibe musically
speaking pre-framed Van Halen performed
this one on their mid 70s Show can we
say this was a perfect Zeppelin song for
them this had to be an inference on
David Lee Roth's narration Style singing
while the others enjoy them instrumental
challenge early when Halen was on fire I
didn't really like the Evan Hager era
there I said it Jimmy Page played Hudson
for an hour eight times with the black
crowds in the year 2000 to great effect
the guitar part sounded close to the
studio version these passenger
performances makes us wish they played
presence in its entirety
[Music]
nowhere

[Applause]
[Music]
everybody
okay so right off the bat people claim
this is a cover of a famous gospel Blues
artist playing Willie Johnson well he
recorded the song in 1927 this is not
entirely true you see Robert Plant
wanting to play this track but Jimmy
wrote a new musical arrangement in much
the style of 1969 plant kept some of the
original lyrics so if you guys have any
copyright claims you go talk to him
about it musically speaking it's a very
powerful combination of everything that
makes Led Zeppelin or what cover bands
fear the most that is silence between
Hard Rock sections the band's take was
inspired by multiple sources including
John brenborn who did his own version on
his 1967 album another Monday one of the
main differences from the Blind Willie
Johnson composition is the fact that the
verse stays on the E chord rather than
switching to a Paige's intro of multiple
guitars and different octaves captures
your attention with the same fade-in
technique from akili's Last Stand I hear
the influence of deep purples Love Don't
Mean a Thing from 1975 in here
[Music]
nobody's fault but mine sounds like the
blues and guitar vocals do it up you
shook me but darker it's no longer the
enthusiasm of youngsters but questioning
if making deals with the devil was worth
I wouldn't go into rabbit holes by
reading between the lines and the band's
dynamics of 1975 I think this track is a
confession of strange events behind
closed doors one of the most progressive
rock segments in intelligence catalog
happens on this song when Jimmy and
Robert played the main Motif while Jones
and Bonham played those heavy accents to
give you the Sonic illusion of a
polyrhythm while the traditional 4-4
meter never changes it's a bold
statement of musicianship the way they
come back into the main Groove is absurd
and beautiful both Robert and Jimmy
solos have the perfect Rhythm base for a
strong and unrelentless attack it's no
wonder this song was played from 1977
until their 1980 tour as it benefits
from the live show energy with extended
lead guitar moments plus the sudden
stops here and there that made audiences
go crazy like when delivery breaks and
In My Time of Dying there's a pen could
turn a simple Blues into the sound of
the underworld evil spirits and
Redemption clashing the Battle of guitar
layers roaring bass lines massive drums
and shamanic boozeman vocals Robert
Plant started playing this as a solo
artist back in 1988 all the way up to
1991. the Trek made a small comeback on
the 2010s decade page implanted their
own version of the song for their
unleaded project and tours it was closer
to the Blind Willie Johnson original
with a slower Tempo plus a drone effect
I guess this is what happens when you
forget jumper Jones's phone number you
just cannot play the Zeppelin version
without him Jimmy Page returned to the
song with the black crowns for a three
guitar Recreation of the textures and
feel from presence

foreign
[Music]
bonus tracks out of nowhere this came
out in the 2015 deluxe edition of
presence and what a surprise it was for
all of us who thought no keyboards were
used at Munich this song changed
everything we knew about the album from
the get-go it's an emotional piece of
beauty and poetry that seems to be
inspired by hymns recorded by Elvis
Presley jumping Jones delivers a
delicate piano performance before the
band jumps in to take us home while a
1970s TV show credits roll it feels like
the ending of a great adventure and like
many prophetic moments on presence a
signal of how the next studio album
would be led by Jones it doesn't take
much to realize this track was not
suited for the Hard Rock Vibes of
presence Bottom's Groove Jimmy superb
acoustic work and Jones's musical
Arrangement make this a gem in their
catalog if only Robert came up with
lyrics not taking Jabs at his bandmates
who knows what the song could have been
[Music]
okay so first off the song has a
different feel from the rest of the
tracks and presents and it comes down to
the drum sound if you listen carefully
to the opening groove it has the
Physical Graffiti room Reverb back when
I first heard the song in my late teens
I always felt something was off
foreign
[Music]
the 2012 theater screening of
Celebration Day confront my suspicions
if you compare both the studio and live
versions sessions and Munich show there
was a slight tuning issue when every
Jimmy strums the G chord on his
Stratocaster because there's heavy use
of a Tremor bar in the song
stratocasters have sensitive Bridges and
tuning becomes a problem sometimes this
Out Of Tune sensation is distracting for
my musician ears but it can also bother
non-musicians as a 2007 Reunion Show
with Jimmy playing his black beauty Les
Paul improved the sound big time you can
appreciate the attack with the guitar
and bass in perfect Unison Jimmy bought
this blue Stratocaster in 1975 in New
York City and made its live debut at
else Court after a broken string on sick
again when he usually started the show
was probably because his number two Les
Paul was already tuned for Kashmir so
back to for your life there's some rich
or black more inference here from the
opening G chord and Highway Star to the
use of fourths Faron smoking the water
burn and man on the Silver Mountain but
again I sense Paige slagged reach his
guitar work as it did shave an important
part of the 70s
thank you
for your life has one of the most
complicated song structures on the album
yes it's harder to play than a keyless
stand here's why we got the main riff
four times reverse twice mangriff four
times verse twice mainly four times
verse twice easy right okay then the
main riff is played twice Bridge twice
then repeat the whole structure then we
move into four barns with the fun Crypt
in G minor past the funk Jimmy plays an
open G chord to then move into a
downward arpeggio Motif four times the
funk riff is back for eight bars
followed by a modulation into four bars
in a minor the open G chord comes back
plus the arpeggio is preparation for the
guitar solo played over eight bars of
the funk riff in G minor Jimmy's lead
guitar work has some Jeff Beck in there
as well as some of the Physical Graffiti
against the groove guitar phrasing the
slightly dissonant overdubs and layers
in the background create a sense of
trouble that traps The Listener like a
substance the song then comes back to
the same introverse structure at the
beginning with a slight change in the
bridge played four times until the final
single hidden G chord to close the song
for all of us who wish they played more
cuts from presence on their 1977 tour it
comes down to how much rehearsal time
and concentration you need to pull it
off it's not the best material to take
on the road when personal and lifestyle
choices may affect the end result
the 200702 arena version had them far
away from 70 success and they rehearsed
for your life's lyrics criticize the
excessive reach of cocaine the LA scene
back then and how it impacted people's
lives if there was something I learned
from watching tons of YouTube Hollywood
Story episodes as a kid in the 90s was
how drugs and addiction ruined their
careers of artists and celebrities in
the 70s as a musician and day job office
worker I've seen cocaine everywhere from
Rock venue backstage moments to people
in accounting and enthusiastic managers
who never go for lunch and stay awake
for years I've been offered the drug
many times but my reaction is always
fear and hate for cocaine the drug ruins
so many I just they know the drugs and
say yes to life
of course your local drug Pusher may
tell you a little something different
about these drugs and who you believe is
up to you but then again if you go ahead
and try them at least it won't be out of
ignorance just stupidity what would I do
if someone offered me these drugs
I tell him to take a hike
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
this is the rehearsal for
me
because we've ever ever ever ever done
this song ever so maybe if you and I go
you ready a Sonic treasure an Exquisite
Blues number that hides in the deepest
Waters of the Zeppelin discography how
the band arrived at T for one seems like
a natural extension of early blues and
rockabilly runs that Sr studies in Los
Angeles
[Music]
[Applause]
not really
[Music]
beautiful
the band kept moving within a rehearsal
room while the money making machine
stopped with so much potential energy it
had to come out for the pain and passion
of the Blues two for one is the perfect
ending for a hard-hitting album we get a
guitar intro and a deep pocket Groove
that tricks us just as we started to
feel the double guitar harmonies and
layers carefully placed side by side and
openg Court comes in to take us for a
Slow Blues with such degree of surprise
it hits you like a drug like a
medication taking you places to sit back
and exhale to pleasure and lessons life
brings within a Sonic Deja Vu for
Zeppelin fans with a very similar chord
structure to Since I've Been Loving You
t for one ditches a keyboards in favor
of a four piece live in the studio
guitar space drums and vocals where 1970
was passionate and heartbroken 1975 was
a sobering reflection on Solitude and
the price of Fame away from their
families in their wealthy tax exiled
prison of hotels and expectations the
chordal structure for Since I've Been
Loving You overall moves between a more
traditional C minor and F minor segments
what makes tea from one different is the
use of B flat in the mix which connects
the C minor intention adding to
increased levels of nostalgia and
despair she means two guitar string
Motif that runs throughout the song can
be heard as added textures on live
versions of several heaven and The Song
Remains the Same page was a fan of this
lake that is usually found on Vintage
Spanish and Latin American guitar music
one of the earliest recordings of Jimmy
playing this can be heard on the
Dublin's 1969 cover of as long as I have
you bass and drum's complement page on
his list Paul lead guitar poetry that
moves between restraint and bleeding out
his emotions one of their finest Blues
moments it was an honest reflection of
what the band was while Jimmy did play
some of the [ __ ] licks for t41 in
Latter Day 11 Renditions of Since I've
Been Loving You it's a shame they never
attempted the song itself they had the
fame in the audience to take the chance
what they never did puzzles me t41 was
played six times by Paige and plan on
their 1986 toy and it Remains the only
time the Japan members attempted the
song on stage Joe Bonamassa his own
fantastic version in 2006 featuring Doug
Hampton and vocals fun fact Anthony was
a lead singer for healing sixes a band
of touring recorded with Jason bottoman

teamed up with hypnosis for the second
time with design duties handled by
George Hardy he worked in her debut
album Genesis slam lies down on Broadway
and wish you were here it seems Hardy's
appreciation of a white color album
cover moved on to presence it looks
similar to Pink Floyd's wish over here
the main inspiration for the design was
taken from the August 1956 edition of
National Geographic the article was
about the boom of San Francisco Bay
hypnosis decided to recreate the image
using a background photo of an
artificial Marina from the annual boat
show at Earl's Court arena in the winner
of
1974-1975. a photoshoot took place to
capture the family at the table This was
later caught and added to the arrows
Court back rope a black object similar
to the monolith from 2001 A Space
Odyssey was played into various scenes
including the main cover known as the
object it was custom made for the black
and white photos of the inner sleeve the
Japan then hired album Museum Graphics
in New York to make 1 000 individually
numbered 12-inch tall objects for
promotionally use via swan song records
these came in a brown cardboard box with
a sticker I read the objects many
reproductions have been made years later
but the originals had flat black paint
smooth size and bass spotting an
original object can make zelpin
collectors go crazy like this episode
from Pawn Stars now I need to share my
thoughts on the album's imagery which I
find disturbing while hypnosis said the
object represented floors and presence
they didn't really explain what kind of
force and presence looking at the events
of 1977 the tragic finale of the band In
1980 one cares to think of the object as
some sort of bad element waiting to
happen a closer look at the images
suggests metaphors of prescription
recreational drugs money fate and power
looking at the album cover we see a
family of four in an empty table with a
backrob of the boat show at all's Court
the Las Vegas performed that before the
Pan's family accident in Greece the 1956
photo of the boom of San Francisco Bay
is eerie and haunting as Oakland
Coliseum was the last show from the 1977
tour looking at the back cover we see a
woman acting as medium between a young
boy and the object well Samantha Gates
the girl from the houses of the Holy
cover looks at him confused the stuff in
the Blackboard is relevant to the Led
Zeppelin story as well we have the
number 24 that's Led Zeppelin's final
gig in the U.S on July 24 1977. we have
the number 77 in there as well number 80
speaks of John Bonham's passing at the
age of 32. a map of Europe suggests her
final year in the road and the countries
they visited 7780 is also the last show
they ever played in Berlin keeping up
with the Zeppelin tradition of past
efforts delays an album cover production
and held a release date weeks before the
release Melody Maker got all of the
cover Peter Graham was Furious he had
his Entourage including madman John
binden visiting employees from hypnosis
they wanted answers and everybody was
terrified they didn't discover a young
man in Atlantic's record PR department
gave Melody Maker the image while some
sources State the official release date
as March 31st the overall consensus a
presence was released on April 5th
1976. Advanced orders for 1 million
records in America alone gave a Platinum
Status an album recorded by the group
with no bass no home just moving while
looking at the Horizon reporters called
Swanson offices in London to ask about
the object's meaning nobody knew and or
care to explain audience and critics
reception was mixed sales eventually
cooled down and apportion landed on the
infamous discount bins at stories as
part of the popularity at an all-time

October 1976 The Song Remains the Same
film and soundtrack was the real
presence of 1976. their seventh studio
album was overshadowed by an
unprecedented move in Zeppelin's history
Management's strange timing seems like
while The Song Remains the Same as
premieres feature on their president's
timeline it doesn't belong there a movie
that promoted stuff from the Atlantic
gears catalog did nothing to help poor
guy presence the last time the band
released two records in the same year
was 1969 but that was actually good for
both releases the seventh one faced an
uphill battle to find its place to this
day the fact swan song pushed for an all
concert project that had so many
roadblocks says a lot of their hopes for
presence because airplane had been away
from the stage for so long it seems the
1977 tour was not about promoting the
new album but a continuation of their
concert film hype and comeback past the
movie theater I will cover the making of
The Song Remains the Same on a separate
video but I can stay the record business
in 1976 played a major role in having
Zeppelin released the soundtrack despite
having a studio album on the shelves you
see record buyers had 93 live albums to
choose from in 1976 it was a trending
business move the big hit record from
this live document frenzy was Peter
Frampton's comes alive at the fifth
highest selling album of 1976 right on
the general Jar's oxygen Boston subtitle
debut and both the Eagle's greatest hits
in Hotel California Frampton's seminal
release shaped the latter part of the
decade in full force label Executives
took note and Zeppelin was no exception
knowing that plan Jones and Barnum
greatly admired McCartney's work I dare
to speculate Wings was a major inference
and The Song Remains the Same coming to
life in 76. the band released both a
studio album and their whopping wings
over America 3lp set from their heavily
documented six-leg 65 show World Tour
Rush did the same thing on a smaller
scale 21-12 and at the world stage
positioned them as one of the heaviest
bands from the 70s Hungary to gain a
massive Following over the next two
decades most live albums released in 76
featured concerts captured earlier that
year or 1975. Led Zeppelin's drawing
power was so big only they could get
away with a three-year-old concert from
73 ironically present sold almost the
exact same number of records as wings at

opportunity with presents yet there are
a couple of things that I think that
we'll work on but uh rehearsals for Led
Zeppelin's 11th Heroes tour took place
in late 1976 through January of 1977. a
movie theater in London converts into a
rehearsal space was used as headquarters
the venue was Manticore Studios owned by
Emerson Lake and Palmer it helped the
band work out the setlist like finding a
proper one-man guitar arrangement for a

while American fans bought tickets for
all 52 scheduled shows the British music
scene in Market was changing with Ponca
New Wave growing stronger among younger
crowds all bands like Led Zeppelin were
criticized as being out of touch to what
the kids were playing the working-class
mindset of new acts was in opposite
direction of isolated Stadium Rock
millionaires the band responded with
Jimmy and Robert going to see punk bands
like the Damned the 1977 US tour was
scheduled to begin in March with the
upper news in February for last minute
details and Logistics their instruments
and gear were shipped off to the states
a few days before flying for opening
night Robert Plant was diagnosed with
tonsillitis he had no voice nor energy
and the tour was postponed for an entire
month of no rehearsals quite a dangerous
move for Jimmy who didn't touch a guitar
until April a busy mind is better than
anxiously waiting and looking for other
distractions Pilgrim's divorced from his
wife Gloria was the one who would never
recover from she was tired of Peter's
life on the road in excess while Grant
managed to keep custody of his two
children something quite extraordinary
back then and Gloria leaving him added
insult to injury on an already unstable
character who headed towards depression
chemical paranoia and dangerous mood
swings angry at himself and others for
his loss where Peter Graham was the one
keeping everybody happy in the past he
slowly became disconnected and nobody
could emotionally lift him up quote
Richard Cole I think that was the end of
everything I hated the last tour you
could feel it something very bad it was
all the drugs I suppose I don't know but
there was something wrong it wasn't the
same with most of the road crew on
heroin and other assorted pastimes a
negative vibe surrounded the swan song
and Zeppelin Corporation
the band's first leg of the tour began
on April Fools With 17 shows played all
the way up to April 30th Zeppelin's
overall set list here was hard-hitting
daring and wild everything they were
known for compiled in one long and
fascinating collection of songs the
acoustic set was revived so Robert could
sit down and relax his leg he wasn't
running around on stage that job was
left for a dangerously thin Jimmy Page
dancing and dog walking as much as he
could bottoman Jones were consistent
with polished chops that rescued their
guitar and vocal counterparts on more
than one occasion Robert's singing was
better than 1975 with phrasing control
but Jimmy was the opposite alternating
between rhythm guitar greatness erotic
lead playing and sudden bursts of
inspiration presence was represented
with just two cuts Achilles left hand
and nobody's fault but mine both
Achilles and nobody's fault were
ambitious tracks that got the most out
of Jones and Barnum's connection to each
other's feel and intensity Jimmy was not
in top form to play these numbers but
pull through with pure survival Instinct
Robert was able to express himself with
these songs pass the wheelchair
recording of presence he delivers solid
and confident Renditions overall

August 2nd and 3rd at Chicago Stadium

Pittsburgh Arena on August 9th and 10th
you can check out episode 3 of the
making of into the outdoor for my visual
summary of events that led to the tragic
ending of the 1977 tour
foreign
looking at all this information it cares
to say and ask the what if question what
if they didn't record presents and just
released The Song Remains the Same in 76
okay I'll take a guess here first things
first Iron Maiden Steve Harris is not
inspired by Achilles Last Stand he takes
Q from Judas Priest early Works instead
kiss never records that was made for
loving you in breakup in 1981. Jimmy
Page finishes the Lucifer Rising
soundtrack and Kenneth anger Praises his
work the band settles in Montreal with
Robert's recovery making great progress
plus his family visiting from time to
time Jones page and Bonham work on a
Crazy instrumental piece with drums
electronic percussion Funk guitars and
synthesizers they think about contacting
JoJo more there at musicland Studios to
produce an experimental session but
describe the idea after Planet walks in
one day and says he'd like to see Donna
Summer play Dazed and Confused everybody
laughs and bottom shouts well at least
she can dance and moan better than you
Robert Peter Graham books a small U.S
tour from May until late June 1977 with
no Achilles or nobody's fault they to
Celebration Day and in the light played
right after Jimmy's violin bow Thurman
solo they go back to Switzerland
recording sessions for their seventh
studio album begin nature live at
Mountain Studios with a Slow Blues
number t401 and Hudson for nowhere the
project is shelved after Robert gets
devastating news about his son all four
Led Zeppelin members attend carrick's
funeral they reunite Midway through 1978
to rehearse and later record in through
the outdoor outtakes from the sessions
include ozone baby t41 with Jones and
keyboards and wearing and tearing the
1979 and 1980 shows feature four new
songs in the evening all my love hot dog
and Carol salambra the band reunites in
2007 with Jason Bonham drums their set
list includes the Rain song and the
first ever performance of karusa lambra
one can dream right with the tragic
events before and after the recording of
presence I say the album should have
been called premonition with the object
the reminder of things to come a seven
song seventh album that got them busy
while the Horizon looked Grim the sum of
all parts deliver a strong and explosive
record that feels like the ban is
performing in your living room a very
special snapshot of a true ban on the
Run exhaling and inhaling success in
between the gigantic expectations from
the money-making business partners good
and bad Led Zeppelin is stuck to making
music escaping everybody's expectations
and recording one of their most
misunderstood adventures in a career
that couldn't do no wrong their lowest
selling studio album is a badge of honor
for batch holders only this record is a
private club into Zeppelin fandom Exile
away from Rules the place where time
stopped the Chamber Of release Solitude
and mirrors whatever the object means
for everyone the songs are precious and
tangibles forever when a minute seems
like a lifetime let us grab our
headphones and feel this way
this was the making of presents be sure
to hit the like button subscribe and
wait for future episodes on jcm Led
Zeppelin stories bye bye

thank you very much
