Watch Robert Plant play five Led Zeppelin classics in official pro-shot video (PinkPop festival, Netherlands, 2014)

Excerpt from Classic Rock's article, then the video and setlist below.

Robert Plant has always been diplomatic in his refusal to entertain the idea of a Led Zeppelin reunion, and he remained noticeably silent when this year's critically acclaimed Becoming Led Zeppelin documentary introduced the band to a new audience.

Nevertheless, Plant has never failed to embrace his old band's catalogue when playing live, and the official video of his set at the Dutch Pinkpop festival in 2014 bears this out. Uploaded to the festival's official YouTube channel at the weekend, it features Plant and his band, the Sensational Space Shifters, performing a nine-song set that includes five Led Zeppelin classics.

Plant opens his set with Babe I'm Gonna Leave You – written by American folk singer Anne Bredon but credited to "Trad arr Page" on Led Zeppelin's first album – and goes on to play covers of Black Dog, Going To California, Ramble On and Whole Lotta Love.

Elsewhere in the set, Plant and his band play Willie Dixon's Spoonful, the Appalachian folk classic Little Maggie, and two of his own solo songs, Funny in My Mind (I Believe I'm Fixin' to Die) (based on Bukka White's Fixin' To Die Blues) and Tin Pan Valley.
