Led Zeppelin Live Aid 1985 3 Stairway to Heaven Stereo (Read Description First)

Led Zeppelin's infamous return to the stage in Philadelphia's JFK Stadium in July 1985 to support Bob Geldof's international "Live Aid" event to bring relief to the Ethiopian famine. Introduced by Phil Collins, the band takes to the stage with Tony Thompson on drums & Collins tagging along.
Part 3: The Led Zeppelin reunion takes flight on the Stairway, & carries with them 90,000+ along for the ride. Does anybody remember laughter?
This clip has been cleaned up: the green hues from the 20 yr old + tape has been removed, the brightness & contrast have been balanced out.
The audio has been synchronized to the FM broadcast captured on an old cassette tape. That audio was pretty messed up & had lots of dropouts, hopefully the results are satisfactory.
Enjoy!!!
Watch in HQ with headphones (if possible)

These guys literally came from different places on earth to be together to play this one off gig, with only about one hour of practice time before hitting the stage. With that in mind, I think they sounded great. I remember watching this event on live tv with friends as it was happening, and we were all overjoyed and stoked that the remaining members of Zeppelin were actually performing again. Listen to the joy and cheering from the crowd at the end....they all thought it was great. The VJ's from MTV were beside themselves from happiness. This was an historical moment in rock history, and for those who criticize this performance can go screw themselves, because EVERYONE back then enjoyed the experience and thought it was awesome.

[@rtek5]

timeforachange12 could get sloppy, especially in the later shows but anybody who can watch Dazed and Confused in the Song Remains movie and say he was horrible? And what about the show they did recently for the Celebration Day film. I've been playing for 38 years and he's one of my main influences. I will say the solo in this vid is pretty week. He probably hadn't been practicing much

[@timeforachange12]

He was a bad performer, sorry to say, but a great creator in the studio, when he was not copying old afro-american bluesmen.

[@rtek5]

yea well I disagree that he was always just a bad performer period. and I'm a guy that has stood up there and done it. he had a good stage presence and usually hit the notes. his writing was brilliant. A lot of brits from his era started out with blues. y'know that was how the whole British invasion began?

[@keithb1933]

Was watching all day with pals - drinking beer. - then this - don't care about the ins an outs of the performance - we sat mesmerised - something we never expected to ever see or hears live again...we rocked and rocked and rocked!

[@Zen_Coyote]

It’s funny, watching this now and knowing where I was sitting that day, I had no idea at the time (of course) how much my life would change after that summer. It’s hard to pinpoint the exact moments where your life took an unexpected turn, for better or worse, but for me it was this concert. I miss being young and full of hope.

Each of these men paid their dues. They solidified rock music and took songs to such high levels it became difficult for most any band to reach the heights the Zepp members took it to. While most bands play hard to reach top notch standards but fail, Led Zepplin kept going with better and better. Once bands reach that high plateau, they are unable to do so after. Zepp kept it going. They will always remain the soul of Rock and Roll from each and every song they presented. We get older, things don't quite work as they used to. They came together, on stage after many years and played. Getting to stand and watch them perform would have been an honor. Stairway will always rate number one.

Live aid would have to be one of the best concerts in history. Imagine those lucky enough to be there!

[@laurabaird7267]

No, it’s not “would have” it WAS. Live Aid was the best concert in history. Period. Back then you had to pay to have access to most music video stations as most humans had just the most basic of cable but on that day everything was free. The world opened up and channel corporations allowed the average person like me to watch this extraordinary event. Until the Gulf War a few years later I had never seen paid channels open themselves to everyone. All performers kept to their time frame, no one tried to go over and no egos got in the way - it was the most amazing concert ever! And Phil Collins tool the concord so that he could play at both the British and US concerts - he just wanted to play the drums and help out. There is a book that came out shortly after the concert, but I’m sure it’s long out of print by now, but it or the DVD are well worth the hunt. This was the concert of the century and beyond, it changed music, and it was one of the most amazing experiences watching on my living room floor settled into the shag carpet!

[@bustabass9025]

It's one of those songs where the greatness of the original outshines any subsequent covers or live renditions. It sets just the right elements of composition altogether from the beginning; such that other versions may be nice, but you always come back to the original for the purest appreciation of the masterpiece that it truly is.

Your pastor EH? Jimmy Page was/is an occultism. Dont believe me, look it up. He did ceremonial rituals and some dark magic. Your pastor needs to learn a few things. May Queen is a witch.
