Review of Page Plant Live La Cigalle, Paris, France – March 30th, 1998
The publicity surrounding Walking Into Clarksdale was enormous. The
first album with all original music from Page & Plant since 1979
received much advance airplay with the single “Most High” appearing
both on radio and MTV.
In the months leading up its release Page & Plant were busy with warm
up gigs in eastern Europe (Croatia, Poland, Czech Republic), a much
publicized surprise gig in Shepherd’s Bush Empire, and an appearance
on Top Of The Pops. The publicity junket also included a trip to
France for a gig in La Cigalle in Paris, broadcast on OUÏ FM radio
on March 30th and a television appearance on Canal-1 TV the following
day.
The start of the show maintains a distinct feel of the Unledded tours
from a few years prior. The same opening tape is played before a few
measures of “Immigrant Song” lead into “The Wanton Song.” They follow
with the Led Zeppelin II medley common from the past tour with an
excerpt from “Bring It On Home,” “Heartbreaker” up to through the
solo, and “Ramble On.”
Robert Plant speaks a bit of French in his opening comments. He
mentions they now have “no Egyptians, no orchestra, no hurdy-gurdy,
just four madmen and a friend” (the friend is keyboardist Phillip
Andrews). As he’s introducing the title track from the new album,
the audience cheer in recognition and prompts Plant to quip “that’s
good, you’ve heard it already.”
The new songs in general sound much better played live than on record.
“Walking Into Clarksdale” has schizophrenic dallying between various
styles, flirting with many but with commitments to none. It’s a brave
song which is followed by a stultifyingly orthodox version of “No
Quarter.” While the arrangement on the Unledded tours were dark,
apocalyptic nightmare visions, this sounds like almost identical to
the Houses Of The Holy recording.
“When I Was A Child” is the second new song of the set which Plant says
is “the second time we’ve wove our way through that. It takes some
concentration. And a chair. A chair!” A three song acoustic set
follows with “Going To California” (complete with Plant’s middle
eastern vocal embellishments), “Tangerine” (which, like “No Quarter,”
is performed almost exactly as the studio recording) and finally
“Gallows Pole.”
They follow with “Burning Up,” the third new song. It would be played
the opening week in the US but then dropped in favor of “Shining In
The Light.”
Before “How Many More Times” Plant promises they’re “gonna break all
the boundaries of music…it’s jazz time.” Played as a reference to
the recently released Led Zeppelin BBC Sessions on Atlantic, they
throw in the riff to “Smokestack Lightening” and short versions of
“We’re Gonna Groove” and “In The Light.”
They close the set with the first single from the album “Most High,”
which is their “desperate attempt to win friends and influence people
under the age of ninety.” It is a brilliant synthesis of western rock
and northern African arabic music and deservingly won the Grammy award.
Page & Plant give the French radio audience three encores: “Whole Lotta
Love,” “Thank You” and finally “Rock And Roll.”
Walking Into Clarksdale was released on April 25th, a month after this
broadcast. The publicity paid off. The LP entered the chart at number
five and stayed in the charts for six weeks (it did slightly better in
the UK by entering at number three).
