Led Zeppelin played in Melbourne on 20 February 1972 as part of their only Australasian tour. Performing at the outdoor Kooyong tennis stadium, they delivered a powerful set that was disrupted by a summer rainstorm. After a pause they returned to finish with classics like 'Stairway to Heaven' and 'Whole Lotta Love'.
