“The tours took a lot ... well, did it take a lot out of me? I don’t know whether it did. It gave as much to me as it took out. It was like being on a permanent adrenalin drip, do you know what I mean? [Playing live was] to be right on the edge of the moment.”

1970
The Milwaukee Journal review was definitely prescient: "Led Zeppelin is so much a part of today that it can easily transform into tomorrow."
1971
Florida in August. It was hot. The audience was obnoxious. Plant: "For God's sake...SHUT UP!". Jimmy Page slipped a few bars of "You Really Got Me "(The Kinks) just before breaking into "What Is And What Should Never Be".
