i literally had downloaded this over the weekend, and was listening to it the past few days.   I don't think it was this particular concert, but Plant's intro was basically the same.

Never heard the term hurdy-gurdy outside of the Donovan song.

Sure, it's Zantz who can't dance.

Watching that video really made me appreciate the amazing talent of John Bonham. Also, if you want to pick a song from the Page and Plant tour that better highlights Eaton's playing try Gallows Pole.

/Nothing against the hurdy-gurdy, that was great, but Bonham brought a lot to the table particularly with When the Levee Breaks.
