    Unfortunately, a lot of those Timeline photos have been taken down. Not sure what's going on but many that were once there are missing. Something about " maintenance".

    Our latest effort.

    That would be wonderful, I would love to participate if you'd be inclined. I have a YouTube channel devoted to Bonzo's drumming and it would be great to hear from you about your father and his relationship with Bonzo. Are you a musician, Dan?

    Thank you , Sam!

    Our newest YouTube video drops today at 3pm EST, and features Jimmy Sakurai on guitar. Hope you all dig it. We feel it came off pretty well, considering we are in 4 different places ! Chicago, NY, Cleveland and Tokyo!

    This topic comes up from time to time, and it still amazes and frustrates me that more footage, alternate takes, Bonzo's solo (!!!) can't be cobbled together for a special release. Something like... "The Song Remains The Same - An Alternate Perspective " Maybe it has something to do with the rights owner of the film..(Warner) ?? How happy would all Zep fans be if they had the fantasy sequence footage replaced with the actual playing, (do you mean to tell me the dumb ass film crew didn't get Jimmy's solo on No Q or Bonzo's drum solo??) or alternate versions of songs , or even a full stage view , house shot ( like the end of Rock and Roll) . I'll never understand how there could be so many gaps , these guys must've been hacks. Probably will never happen and the film will just rot in the vaults.

    Sorry to hear, my condolences.

    I just sent a PM as well. Brilliant work!

    No soundboard, only the excellent audience tape. The footwork is impressive but it's actually not that difficult if you practice it . He was playing quick doubles , which is a signature of his right foot technique. You can hear it also in Achilles Last Stand, Dazed and Confused live and Whole Lotta Love live etal. Good Times Bad Times is more challenging. The only studio track I think he may have used two bass drums for was Bonzo's Montreux. Here is a demo that I did of that version

    Totally agree. What's with the rose colored ears and '75..seriously? Not even close to 71-73.

    Graf Zeppelin's is my fav for the audience merge. The sources are clear, the edits well done and Moby Dick is also complete which bizarrely wasn't the case for pretty much all prior releases. For me a matrix works best if you have most of the show in both SBD and Aud. This show is a typical '73 incomplete SBD. Still I'm surprised no one did a decent matrix recently. Seems like the era of matrixing was 10-15 years ago. Am I wrong ?

    That's great, I have Audacity...maybe I'll try tweaking it a bit but I'm really novice at sound production. Looking forward to your RAH. Still maddening that they never put out a stand alone release .

    My drums only for D'yer Mak'er.

    Pb is always better than any Mudslide release. Brighter and clearer. Not much that can be done to correct the level fluctuations and low guitar because as far as I know, there is no "tape"I version. They all come from vinyl. I ripped my original copy of Pb and shared it on dime a while back. I believe Liquid Led and Wendy used my rip because the track timings for both of those are identical to mine and sound very similar. If you can find the Liquid Led online to download , grab it...or the Wendy version. They also added the audience source missing songs.

    I would love to hear Chicago or New Orleans '71.

    Hey, thanks for sharing here! 👊🏼

    Absolutely. The notion that the boot would have any effect on official sales is ludicrous. Casual to semi-serious fans will buy the official release, not even being much aware of a boot... hardcore fans will likely buy it too , even if it's edited to death, like the other official live releases.

    Thanks so much! I'll be in touch .

    For once and for all...It's clearly not a click. If you try to align with a metronome, the tempo drifts. Even Rick contradicts himself ( sort of ) here. At the beginning he calls it a click but at the end he says " hand drums" , so who knows why he said "click" at the beginning. You can clearly hear that Bonzo is phrasing with those sixteenths , playing with a feel for the rhythms of the guitars. There is variance and dynamics. When you listen to the isolated track, it's very obvious. Whether it's on a guitar case, or a rubber waste bin, it's human not mechanical. Also, I wish I could've done that drum demo...that guy was not happening.

    Thanks . We intend to do it. Here is the latest.

    No dress up, Halloween stuff. We just play the music.

    Fantastic! I'm looking forward to delving into your book. I have a YouTube channel devoted to Bonzo's drumming and I've always been curious to learn more about his work in the studio, the kits he used , miking...his overall approach to recording. Would you be up for a chat sometime, either email or by phone? Here is a link to my channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyPPcUtsiLoagS62b4qkYtg Kind thanks, George
