Press Review: Rock Lovers Get Treat at U. Arena
What is powerful and exciting enough to pack University arena full of summer happy-rock lovers? Led Zeppelin was the answer Wednesday night.
As one of the loudest raunchiest exponents of hard rock, the English group is touring America in the most expensive musical jaunts ever, after months of rumors that there were breaking up.
Their re-appearance did not disappoint the extremely well behaved crowd of over 14,000. Backed by carnival style distorting mirrors and led by right suited lead guitarist Jimmy Page, the Zeppelin rocked around the arena stage driven by solid electricity – personal and instrumental.
There was nothing intellectual or sophisticated about the music the group played. It was just heavy, make – your - adrenalin – start – pumping rhythm mixed with familiar Zeppelin style vocal. And as the crowd’s reaction attested, there is nothing wrong with that.
The feeling one got was that the group pounded their instruments for all they were worth. And if the lead singer’s dance-like gyrations were a bit too slick and the drummer a bit too uncontrolled, the concert proved for the umpteenth time that Jimmy knows his guitar. (Albuquerque Journal- 5.24.73)
