Thank you very much. I was gonna say good evening again. This is one that we're attempting for the second time for the benefit of the man who usually sits in the second row, but obviously's gone to the bathroom. A Richie Blackmore look alike wherever he's gone.

Over the hills and very far away. How this is the second night in eight and a half years, Bonzo the second night in eight and a half years. Most blues that you're acoustomed to, or most blues music which is largely ignored ah, section of American music unfortunately, generally is considered to be associated with Chicago, urban Chicago. This comes from, this is what you might call a central London blues.

Jimmy Page guitar. This next piece is ah, I guess it tells the tale of a voyage that you might say through time. It could be from one hotel room to another or it could be just one of those voyages that we have to take from time to time. A journey in life. It's called No Quarter. It features John Paul Jones.

Before: Ten Years Gone
That was a song with some cryptic undertones, I guess. That's why it featured John Paul Jones. This is a song about that ah, the first love, the love that should never go wrong. The love you always lose in the end, and never forget. It's called Ten Years Gone.

This is the ah, gosh, this is when you know you got a cheap P.A. company whan all the mic stands have been, even Rusty. For anybody, as anybody been here any other night? That's the truth. Well in that case, I better think of some different verbal before we do this. This is a song that's very reminiscent of the ah, sort of attmosphere that sort of predominates the borders between England and Scotland, or England and Wales. The earthy parts. It also brings a very earthy character to the front of the stage, the rhinestone cowgirl, John Bonham. John Henry Bonham. I beg your pardon.

So it's no good going groovy, what a nice alcoholic. It's water. The alcohol comes later. I should have quit you, long time ago. This song's for a very very dedicated to a very very important New York group from a while back, that you all know, the Jive Five. This is for the Jive Five. Remember the Jove Five?

Jimmy accidentily dropped his guitar. We'll tell you about it. Fortunately for anyone who managed to see a film called Monty Python and teh Holy Grail, we have the one they call Tim, the Scottish Gentleman who's now left ah, the film business, and is now walking across the stage with that piece of white paper. The one they call Tim has tuned the guitar, Tim.

That was a song called ah, um, Kashmir, one of our favorites. Talking about favorites, the man now looks like finishing a bottle of vodka, and is in fact drinking water. The very great. The very rhinstoned man from the complaint department, John Bonham. Over the Top.
