A week after night one of the 1979 Knebworth Festival, the band returns for what will prove to be their final performance in England. The nerves of the first show have subsided and the band launches into The Song Remains the Same with power and gusto. Plant pushes his voice to the limit during a frantic Celebration Day. The massive crowd sings along with every word during a bone-crushing Black Dog. Plant has some trouble with his microphone during the initial verses of Over the Hills and Far Away, which causes a series of loud popping noises. Page's fingers get caught in the strings of his guitar during the song's outro.

Since I've Been Loving You is simply outstanding. Page blazes through a fantastic guitar solo with incredible fluency and precision. An unbelievably powerful performance, one of the best in recent memory. Jones briefly hints at Your Time is Gonna Come near the end of an excellent piano solo during the band's final performance of No Quarter. Page tears through an amazing guitar solo, shredding wildly during the song's explosive outro. In mentioning the new album, Plant tells the crowd "it's called In Through the Out Door, which is... one of those methods of entry that proves to be harder than one would originally expect." Hot Dog is dedicated to "the texas road crew and all the people to be found in the sleazy hangouts around there." Someone in the crowd can be heard shouting "New York City!" as Page begins The Rain Song. Bonzo pummels the crowd with his thunderous fills near the end of Kashmir. Page stumbles through a sticky-fingered guitar solo during Trampled Underfoot.

Achilles Last Stand is a bit dull and uninspired, despite Bonzo's efforts to inject some energy into the performance. Page gets lost near the end of the song. Plant delivers an incredibly powerful performance during In the Evening. As the song ends, someone in the crowd can be heard shouting "happy birthday Robert Plant!", to which Plant responds "not yet, one week." The crowd erupts as Rock and Roll crashes into motion. Page flubs the guitar solo during Whole Lotta Love. The biggest surprise of the night is the inclusion of the Boogie Chillen' section for the first time since 7/29/1973. Page blazes through an outstanding guitar solo. Plant shreds his voice as the band hammers through a blistering Communication Breakdown. An explosive finale to a somewhat uneven performance. As the band leaves the stage for the last time, Plant announces "thank you very much indeed... we'll see ya soon, very soon."

Honestly, this is the best live version of No Quarter. They're just hitting on ALL the nuances, this is absurdly fantastic!

[ayhamshaheed]

Woooow this was so good!! For all the…rather disheartening performances during this show, it’s great to see a true diamond in the rough.

[verginithe]

13:10 - 13:39 ... their best transition for this part of the song ever!

[kaneda]

Pour moi la meilleure interprétation en concert de " no quarter".
Le solo de Jones est admirablement écrit. Les trois autres acolytes restent merveilleux bien sûr 😁.
Un très très grand moment à vivre.
Vraiment...

Robert's voice cut through like a sharp knife or a mighty sword

[Sean-ifrp]

Of the rough performances of this night, this certainly was not rough

[derekjackson]

This and Kashmir were the standouts from the night

[adammadrigal]

No quarter reminds me of drinking vodka on 76 Place my street with all my homies on a rainy 🎉

[SteveWright]

The 8/11 show paled in comparison to the 8/4 show. But this performance is stunning!! The highlight of this show by far.

[rishavpaudel]

How did page pull this off on 8/11 holy shit.

[dannyhamilton]

Led zep the greatest rock band of all time there will never be another band to ever touch where they been

[joshuavargas]

At 1:57, you can see JPJ playing the Piano with his hands, his left foot on the sustain pedal for the piano, and his right foot playing the bass via bass pedals. it just blew my mind

[Htchips]

Ladies and gentlemen, John Paul Jones.

[simeonflake]

For the 8/11 show, this was a good stretch, starting with this and ending with Kashmir. After that, it all went down the tubes....

[andrewallen]

I wonder why this performance wasn't included on the box set

[robertofigueira]

Qualquer comentariosobre led zepplin sera pouco se tratando desta banda viva o Rock n Roll o sonho nao acabou paz e amor

[adamwatson]

JImmy needed a little more Saturation/overdrive on the guitar . His solo was great but the tone was too clean and dry . You can see him almost fighting the Guitar trying get more sustain out of it ..
Its no suprise that in 2002 when the Zep DVD was being worked on Pages guitar from the knebwortth performances was re amped by running the original guitar tracks thrugh a guitar amp with a microphone on the amp recording Pages Re amped guitat tracks onto a spare track which was then layered with the original non re amped guitar track . Reverb was added as well .
This is why on the DVD Pages knebworth tone is fat warm and full .

[andrewallen]

Fun fact his real name is John Baldwin

[milfordcubicle]

How did they not get keep the camera on JPJ during his masterclass
