Good evening. We're really glad you, we're really glad to have you here. This is ah, this is the last gig on teh American tour for us. So, so it only remains to be said that we intend to have yet even a better time than we've had here before. We'd like to thank Linda Lovelace for coming on and making an appropriate ah, speech about our presence and we'd like to apologize for being late, but one of the cars didn't crash. It didn't crash. Right, having established that, we'd like to tell you what we intend to do. We intend to, if you don't already know, take six and a half years of a four man group, Led Zeppelin, and give you a little taste, a little toke, just a little blast, of a little bit of everything.

ah The last time that we finished a tour in the States we finished i toff on New York, which is not really the most pleasant place to be, you know? But um, there's some nice ladies on righty third street, but um, the rest of it, no. So it's, it's almost um, it's with a bit of sorrow that we've got to leave California, and ah, even the Continental Riot Houses wasn't that bad in the end. Anyway, apart from that, apart from telling you about my blues, or the possibility if my blues, we got to tell you that ah, we had an album come out about three weeks ago, Physical Grafitti, and we're really, we're really please that after eighteen months of vanishing from your sight altogether that it's been received as well as it has, so we want to thank you and we want to do some of the tracks from it. You mihgt of ah, possibly you may have even heard them already. This is the first one.

Does anybody remember? I think it might be one of those nights actually, Right, well we've played , we've played a lot of gigs in this vicinity in this area, with Long Beach and San Diego, and three nights here, and ah, sometimes you can get a little cheesed off with playing the same, shut up a minute, hang on, wait sometimes you can get a bot cheesed off for playing the same place, but it's really nice to know that you're giving us what we're giving you, you know? Cause after, after tonight I think we've got three gigs in England and then I don't beleive we work again for quite a long time. So ah, this has got to be good. Linda Lovelace, where have you gone? I have a small gesture for you. This is a song that came about after lots of um, experiences, oh hang on it's Captain Calloway's hat. This is a thing that really motors and moves. It's called The Song Remains the Same.

John Paul Jones played mellotron. Good ole Jonesy. Well it's ah, it's been a long time since we saw the wasted, truely wasted lands, and I believe ah, I believe probably in the fall we'll end up doing a gig in the middle of the Sahara desert, or something like that. It's very possible. Our attraction to those places. This is a track that ah, hang on a minute, this is a track about one such place that had um, more than meets the eye. Kashmir.

A moment of your time before ah, this, hey, you ain't kidding um, this is a song that ah, yeah, hang on, oh, we're changing the program. Hang on. It's just been changed. Right, we were just gonna do ah, but instead we'll do, this is a blues. It's ah, I think it's where we first came in that is a blues a guitar, and this is called Since I've Been Loving You.

Right, well that was something that we've done about three times in three years. ah It's always quite, it's always quite refreshing to do things that we haven't done for such a long time, even though sometime you might think it puts your reputation at stake in front of twenty thousand people, but it doesn't really matter, does it? We're playing our balls out, and talking about playing our balls out, we now feature a man with a lot of balls, in fact three. ah This track, three balls you fool, ladies and gentlemn, No Quarter. John Paul Jones on piano. No Quarter.

John Paul Jones grand piano. John Paul Jones, grand piano and heineken beer. Peter Grant looking now and then. So we've been through the moods of contemplation and , and possible ah, possible um, possible problems on the jungle, the jungle, oh sorry. Thank you. I'm getting a little carried away. So now we come to a thing that as we should dedicate to, we should dedicate to a 1950 Buick Rocket Eighty, that I rented the other day. A yellow one. It kept breaking down, the sherrif's office stopped me, and everyone was saying tsk tsk tsk. Anyway, this car really moves. You could feel the pistons moving. You could feel the gas pumping through it. You could just feel all of that sort of, you know what I'm talking about? I mean, do you ever relate anything to anything else? This is a, I suppose instead of a lemon song, it's a, it's a quart of oil song. It's called Trampled Underfoot.

Keep a swingin, keep a swingin. That was, that was Trampled Under Gallows. Trampled Under Gallows. Right ah, last night there was a party held in ah, in honor of the Pretty Things, who are, anybody heard of the Pretty Things? Don't all shout at once. They are a really good English band who happened to throw a party that a few people came to. Much fun was had by all. Bonzo, our precussionist, left early and went back to the hotel and threw a television out of the window. So tonight, tonight he;s gonna go home and there are no TV's to throw out of the plane. So it's probably best that he does one of the things that he does fantastically well, better than even throwing TV's. Ladies and gentlemen, John Bonham, Moby Dick.

John Bonham. Let's hear it for John Bonham. Moby Dick. Moby Dick. John Henry Bonham. A childhood friend. Tomorrow we will be milking cows. Well ah, well actually, I'm a little bit speechless because it, when it comes to like close, yeah, ah, when it comes to almost the end of a tour, and you know you're not too far away, you start going, oh no, you know? Oh dear. We'll do this ah, we'll do this next thing ah, let's see ah, as a deliberance, or as a deliberation for the fact that we should be now, in about three months time, I don't know, on our way to Catmandu. So stand by for the songs when we come back from there. This is a thing from the very very beginning, when ah, when we were all very young. That might sound ah, quite obvious, but when we were babies in the game.

Jimmy Page guitar. This is a song that came to us um, about two or three years ago, sitting around a fire. We managed to get a recording truck and stick the microphones through the window, sit by the fire, and make an LP. Can you believe that? That's the way to do it, right? It gives you the right attmosphere to write sometimes to write, what we consider to be, reasonable songs. We'll leave you to decide.

Los Angeles, 1975, Good night. Good evening. Good evening. We'd like to thank California for being such good hosts to us while we've been here, and if anybody can hear us in England, we're coming back baby.

Thank you very much. You've been fantastic. Thank you very much indeed for a wonderful stay. It's time to ramble on. Good night.
