Incredible Remastered Footage of Led Zeppelin Performing of ‘Dazed and Confused’ Live in 1973

In a remastered clip from the iconic film The Song Remains the Same, Led Zeppelin perform a jaw-dropping version of “Dazed and Confused” in front of a Madison Square Garden audience in 1973. What’s most notable about this footage is not only that Jimmy Page played his guitar with a cello bow, but also the surreptitious non-verbal conversation between John Paul Jones and John Bonham during a solo.
