13 minutes of beforehand unseen footage of Led Zeppelin enjoying dwell has emerged on-line. The movie was shot on the 2000-capacity Falkoner Centre in Copenhagen, Denmark, in July 1979, on the second of two warm-up exhibits previous to the band’s remaining UK exhibits at Knebworth the next month.
The 8mm movie was initially shot by Led Zeppelin fan Lennart Ström, who revealed the existence of the footage final summer season. Since then, Ström’s footage has been scanned by US firm Reel Revival Movie and colour-corrected by The Pink Floyd Analysis Group, earlier than being matched with an audio recording from the present.
“We introduced the Tremendous 8 digicam to check a brand new movie that will work indoors,” Ström tells LedZepNews. “It was no downside getting the digicam in, it was fairly small and I feel I had it in my trousers on my again. Filming wasn’t that usually performed in these days. They appeared extra for audio tools.”
The footage, which Ström saved in a drawer for over 40 years, consists of sections of Tune Stays The Similar, Black Canine, No person’s Fault However Mine, Over The Hills And Far Away, Misty Mountain Hop, Since I’ve Been Loving You, No Quarter, Sizzling Canine, Rain Tune, White Summer time, Kashmir, Trampled Underfoot, Sick Once more, Achilles Final Stand, In The Night, Stairway To Heaven and Complete Lotta Love, in addition to a clip of Jimmy Web page’s guitar solo.
The footage seems within the wake of the well-received official band biopic, Turning into Led Zeppelin, which incorporates movie of Jimmy Web page & Co. performing on the Bathtub Competition in 1970. That footage had by no means been seen till it was unearthed in a British college movie archive in 2017.
