After nearly 45 years forgotten in a drawer, 13 minutes of previously unseen Led Zeppelin footage from July 24, 1979, have surfaced online. The Super 8 film was shot at Copenhagen’s Falkoner Centre during the band’s final Danish performance—a warm‑up gig prior to their legendary Knebworth shows
Captured by fan Lennart Ström using a covertly concealed pocket Super 8 camera, the black‑and‑white snippets include electrifying moments from “The Song Remains the Same,” “Black Dog,” “Kashmir,” “Whole Lotta Love,” and “Stairway to Heaven,” accompanied by Jimmy Page’s soaring guitar solo
The film, stored away for decades, was recently digitized and color‑corrected by Reel Revival Film and The Pink Floyd Research Group, then expertly synced with archival audio from the live show.
The discovery reignites interest in the band, especially following their recent documentary Becoming Led Zeppelin. According to one reddit fan, the footage’s “insanely beautiful volumetric lighting and grain from the Super 8 … just incredible looking” . Another noted the seamless match between film test footage and the audio, saying:“When the film was transferred recently, it was ‘matched with an audio recording from the show.’”
For die‑hard fans and archivists alike, this rare gem offers a fresh glimpse into Led Zeppelin’s live prowess at the height of their power.
