Seattle, good evening.

Good evening.

Well we went across the border. It was alright, but it's much better back here, and that's, that's no lie. That's the truth. What we intend, what we intend to do tonight is to ah, to relieve our physical ah, pent up ness on stage and then to relieve it after the gig else where. Now the this is, what we intend to do is try and give you a crossection of, of what we've been trying to produce and write over the last six and a half years. As you know, as youknow there's ah, the material varies, and so you will appreciate it as we take it from one extreme to the other, and what better way to start, but to gaze out on to the horizon and see what tomorrow may bring.

Thank you very much. Well you probably heard that one before, yeah? There's one demand that I'd like to make apart from letting you enjoy what we're doing, and that is that you don't sway around too much at the front, and that is because somebody might get hurt, OK? I've seen it happen, and it's very gory. In England we have soccer matches where same sort of thing happens, only the soccer is terrific. Right, now it came to pass that, it came to pass that after eighteen months of our sitting down on our backsides forming swansong records and messing around generally, we finally managed to put a record into the shops, Physical Grafitti. Once again a lot of variation in music. We intend to , we intend to give you some of that tonight if we got any left.

Thank you very much. That was taken from ah, that was , we were inspired should we say from something that came from an old work song a long long long time ago, before they started putting music down on pieces of paper in the south of North American states. ah This song is a different story altogether, this next one. It relates to our travelling, to our voyages and experiences with all kinds of people in all kinds of situations. We always find that we end up having a very nice time after, after the initial confrontation. Whatever language, whatever creed, whatever guitar, whatever road manager. Let me tell you about Raymond. Poor Raymond's working with us with a broken leg. Raymond comes from Scotland with a broken leg. A broken leg. Poor Raymond. So, What was I saying? The Song Remains the Same.

It is the summer of my smiles. It should be the summer of everybody's smiles, right? Even our friend who plays the mellotron, John Paul Jones, melltoron, John Paul Jones. Mellotron is ah, a very easy way of carrying around a thirty six piece orchestra ah, with the aid of tapes. Good evening. John Paul Jones is a very easy was of being an orchestra, and to prove this he's gonna play in the ah, standard ah, middle age and eastern style of violin playing on this next piece. We'd like to dedicate this to ah, everybody we've met in Seattle this time. It's been a groove, and a gas, and we didn't really mean, and we didn't really mean to have left people out of that. This is called Kashmir.

This is an Elvis Pressley show or what? Hi Everybody. That last song holds great signifficance for us really because Kashmir is a place we haven't been yet. So if we can writea song about it before we get there, what happens when we get there? A song now with a nother journey, a journey with ah, more somber intonations and fingers. It features once again the nimble fingers of John Paul Jones. This is a song about a journey where there can be No Quarter.

I don't think anybody else in the band knows about it yet. Just a little bit of change in ah, sorry about that John, and this you see right on the spot. It could be Louie Louie, but instead it's a thing from the third album. Since I've Been Loving You.

Well nobody expected that, least of all, us. That's what it's all about. A lot of distinguished people on the wings tonight. A MR. Peter Grant, known as Panama Pete to the Seattle police, Panama Pete, Peter Grant. Sorry Petey, you didn't go down too welWe got a friend called Lou who's birthda it is today. Lou, happy birthday Lou. We got a guy who plays the drums who kicks the shit out of everybody when he's drunk, John Bonham. A song from Physical Grafitti to, to make you toes curl up. It's a song ah, related to the motions of a motor car, which really is all about ladies like you my dear. It's called Trampled Underfoot, and long may we trample.

With just a little bit of Gallows Pole thrown in. I think this concert has the right vibes for a good time, yeah? No pretense. Everything is just straight on the level. It's really nice. It feels good. ah Our wishes and heartfelt sorrow go out to Benji Lefevre who's suffering from a social disease at the moment. Poor Benji don't forget to pop in the clinic in California. Panama Pete's still in the wings, and we're still here. Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you John Bonham. Moby Dick.

John Bonham. John Bonham John Bonham. Moby Dick. Moby Dick. Tonight on the Johnny Carson show. Well that was too much. Is everybody ah, enjoying themselves? Mr. Page is having a fit. There's a little bit of a discrepancy about a guitar and a man who's being held by the police, and all sorts of things. Quite a, quite a story going on behind the scenes. I think we'll dedicate this to the innocent party, whoever, and wherever he may be in this giant intrude that goes on, as we try and maintain law and order in society withou, not us, but everybody, you know? So, it's a communal effort. Right, this is something that we should dedicate to the difference and the balances between law and order, and where they start crossing each other's lines.

Master guitarist, Jimmy Page. We shal keep you less than a moment. Well ah, a couple of years ago when we were here we ah, you remember the Kingsmen? That's the trouble with you, you American people. You have all this great musical herritage. Well that was the Kingsmen right, and they came from Seattle. Now I want you to try and remember that. When we go to New Orleans nobody's heard of Ernie Kato, or Aaron Neville, or Benni Spellman, and all these people came from New Orleans. So you really must brush up. There's one character that you know came from Seattle who I didn't really know that well, but we'd like to dedicate this piece of music to the amount of work that Jimi Hendrix gave, and the amount of, the amount of inspiration that he gave everybody in the business. Everybody in the whole Rock and Roll world.

That's the Hammer of the gods. Good evening. The fishing wasn't as good as usual, but ah, I believe there's something to be said here.

Seattle. Thank you very much indeed. Good night

Oh, Thank you very much. We've had a great time. Thank you. You've been fantastic. Seattle, good night. Muhammed Bonham. Muhammed Bonham. One of the, one of the most timid men in showbusiness leaving the stage now. John Paul Jones, Jimmy PAge, and a red rose.
