Some rock band LONDON — supple tempos of them when they make their decade old music after the fact. Play fast is a type of armor: refutation. Real simple's age — unregainable enthusiasm and synapsids lost then all collectively — and block the band heavy lessened of cultural importance.
But Led Zeppelin delay of interruption to little O2 arena here on Monday. In a full concert of the first set but 1980 — by John Bonham, who died last year, but with the. His men into a natural substitute Jason — the band found much older in tempos in power that more graceful than on the old save cash. The speed of music ran near the Group's third Studio record, or slow the "good easy" frosted winter time mountain Hop "and" whole Lotta Love "was confident cruises" Dazed and confused "crawled the glorious epoch.
All back to the blues that completely decomposed is a good start and Led Zeppelin with the idea of the half. Singer Robert Plant's band doesn't want you to remember: he suggests "Trampled under foot" by describing a Robert Johnson "Terraplane Blues" and mentions Blind Willie cho nasan is the inspiration for "who's fault but mine (aside from the band that 10 minutes each in two luxuriant blues and other songs from the catalog of the latter:" because I love you "and" in my time of Dying).
Ahmet Ertegun at the concert is dedicated enough. Sure he has of the centrality of black American music under culture. Signed, Mr. Ertegun, who died last year Led Zeppelin to Atlantic records.

With the kind of calmness about Led Zeppelin theme it was well rehearsed the same thing: planning and finance, operating since April under. Band members wore black clothes instead of their most wardrobes candy colors, Mick Jagger, Mr. Unlike old Plant — the life of the original 51 members — not walk and gesture like girls that exciting anymore. Some of the top of his voice, but except for one tried and failed to note in "stairway to heaven" ("a walk to all la-dy that we know ..."), He found other melodic path to suit him. He trusted. He has a good reputation.
Not for Jimmy Page, his guitar solos as articulated by, and that they used to be, but only drove home the point that they are always minor riffs that Monday is enormous bitter ' (he did produce a bow violin for his solo on "dazed and confused" during great music spooky global)
John Paul Jones bass line have lost little in the acoustics of the Hall — like all O2 Arena location such as 22000-seat rough on low frequency — but he carefully in your pocket with Jason Bonham when he could not be cached played keyboard on "mu" and "no quarter" and he is ready to do some other pedal bass with his feet secured with groove that far behind the pace.
And what of Jason Bonham, the big question of what — there is no way to prove this, but let's just rounding it off — Reunion rock projected in age full of them?

Among the 16 songs is one has never played live before: "For Your Life from the album" presence "
