Thank you. Right, we;; what I was going to try to say before, now that Jimmy's just broken a string, it gives me the opportunity to say that we been, us English folk are usually living on sea level, you know? For over a week now, we been above four thousand five hundred feet, and ah, I suppose it's like the dinosaurs, and the complete evolution of things, the way you get, you know, the way you get out of, sort of a certain environment, into another. We been managing to stay awake about eight hours a day, and we're supposed to have a good reputation for staying awake twenty four hours a day. So anyway, it's been a really good tour. I'm doing a bit of spiel, which you'll appreciate while a string is being changed. It's been a good tour. We played in, in Tampa, and we thought we'd see a few people there, but fifty eight thousand people came. That was,

so then we played in Atlanta, and we thought we'd see, and fifty four thousand people came. So we had to sit down for a few days, and work it out. Anyway, we got back into the swing of doing concerts and things again after sitting down for at least three days. So we want this one, we want tto make this one, cause we move from here to the west coast, this is the last midwest thing that we do before we get entirely crazy in California. We're gonna do, we're gonna make this gig the best one in the midwest. What we've had to do, to do this, we all got out of bed about an hour ago, so as we could do it properly. So if you could excuse this little gap we've sent so many things on to California that ah, we even sent all of the spare guitars, and I even found one foot of mine that was drifting across there. Now, how are we doing Raymond? We got a Scotsman

doing the guitars tonight, so he might be a little distorted with the height above sea level. So if you'll just talk amongst yourselves for a second, we'll have a chat. Now this is a very very professional run group, so cool it for a bit. I could do a harmonica solo, but me harmonicas are in, in the west coast too. Ahh, another musician amongst us.

Ahh, wait a minute, hold it , hold it. The night club is now closed down, and we can get on with the concert. Right, this is a track from the album before the one with the title. It's about what happens, you see we speed up again. It's the one about, about if you're caught walking through the park with the wrong stuff in your cigarette papers. Misty Mountain Hop.

I think that it would be advisible that if you didn't throw those green things around, you know? In case it hits somebody on the nut. This is a track from the titled album. It's called No Quarter.

Well, as you can tell, as the group gets older, we get into all sorts of different trips, ah sorry, different scenes, and not even that. Different things. And you go all around the world and you pick up sort of different feelings from different countries, different towns, just like this one, and in the end you find that it's all the very same. So The Song Remains the Same.

John Paul Jones was the Henry Mancini orchestra. What ever happened to Henry Mancini? Right, now during these five years, there's bee all sorts of different colors musically that we've come across, and put onto plastic, and this is one of the very first. An oldie, but goodie.

That's the way to the stairway. Thank you. Well, I reckon the guy who did that should at least get a rotten carrot. Very well done sir. Actually, I'll keep the rest of it to carry as a memento of Salt Lake City.
