Here's the very earliest video (previously unreleased) circulating of Guns N' Roses performing Knockin' on Heaven's Door, live at the Park Plaza Hotel, Los Angeles, California.

This video was shot by longtime friend of the band Marc Canter. This is also the same venue and mini-concert that the Welcome To The Jungle music video was filmed at. The band played an entire set on this day, including Jungle 3-4 times. You can find other videos of this performance on my channel.

This is the earliest known video recording of Knockin' on Heaven's Door and the 4th performance of the song ever by the band. The other three performances were in England at the Marquee in June of 1987. We also know as confirmed by Slash that one of the Marquee gigs was filmed as well, but it is not circulating.

Axl dedicates the song to the late Todd Crew, former band member of Jetboy who overdosed in 1987. Axl dedicates some lyrics in the second verse to him (which he's never done before or after).

Here's some high-quality footage of Led Zeppelin playing at the Fillmore East January 31st, 1969. This film was shot by Dennis Dimatteo.

The audio is from this concert, and I attempted to resync this video as after rewatching the old YouTube upload, I noticed some clips were more than likely the wrong audio. I'm not a 100% sure I got it right, but I didn't have all day to work on it.

This is all of the available footage of this concert in this quality.

Not the video! I'm talking about the audio clip that was released online in 2022 by a fan who recorded their TV speakers back of their Dazed and Confused performance in Amsterdam 1969. If anyone has it, I'd greatly appreciate sharing!
