Led Zeppelin's 1970 United Kingdom Tour was a concert tour of the United Kingdom by the English rock band. The tour commenced on 7 January and concluded on 17 February 1970.
This tour is arguably best known for the band's performance at the Royal Albert Hall on 9 January. According to Led Zeppelin guitarist, Jimmy Page, the Royal Albert hall was "at the time the largest and most prestigious gig in London." The band's manager, Peter Grant, arranged for this performance to be professionally filmed by Peter Whitehead and Stanley Dorfman for a proposed documentary project. However, it was not officially released at the time because the footage was reportedly filmed at the wrong speed. A 40-minute cut was prepared but was deemed by the band to be of unsatisfactory quality. This cut was released years later as a bootleg. In 2003 the original footage was officially remastered and virtually the entire concert was released on the Led Zeppelin DVD. Audio recordings of two songs from the concert, "We're Gonna Groove" and "I Can't Quit You Baby", had earlier been released on the 1982 Led Zeppelin album, Coda
