Led Zeppelin - Live at Earls Court (May 18th, 1975)
I find this to be my favorite of the 5 nights at Earls Court. Jimmy is playing with passion and dexterity. One of his best 1975 shows, imo. I’m playing a source mix making an excellent, complete recording. These excellent audience tapes allow us to hear Tangerine with the four part harmony, unlike on the videos which only had Robert’s voice. That alone makes this show pretty dang okey dokey, but I’ve included a white hot Over The Hills And Far Way (Jimmy is spectacular), and one of the best No Quarters I’ve heard in a bit. Again, Jimmy is rolling 20’s throughout and sticking every landing, solo-wise. His inspiration and his dexterity were both at their best.

On the second day, 5/18, Jimmy did not use his Stratocaster!
Phil T who took this photo, and his friend Dave Lewis were at the first day, 5/17. Jimmy only used the Stratocaster on 5/17 at OTHAFA and 5/23 at No Quarter (from the middle of his solo).
