chapita Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Hey zeppelin fans. What do you think?. Is better Seattle of 1975 or Earl Court.? Seattle has a amazing version of Dazed And Confused with 43.00 minutes! Earl court has great acustic songs. Voice of Robert isn´t the best but i think that the rest of the band just were AWESOME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue Dounim Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Seattle has more of a sense of spontaneity about it, with the band pushing themselves any way they can to put on the best damn show they've got in 'em. Earl's Court was a five day affair, with plenty of time to play around. Those five nights have a more laid-back, yet still palpable energy to them. I love both of these gigs, but I'm at a loss to pick one over the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecongo Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I've always thought Seattle 75 was a little overhyped. 5.25.75 is just a great show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Hey zeppelin fans. What do you think?. Is better Seattle of 1975 or Earl Court.? The one song that Seattle has that EC doesn't is SIBLY. The songs that EC has that Seattle doesn't are Tangerine, Communication Breakdown and the entire amazing acoustic set. Case closed...Earls Court for the win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Only Way To Fly Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 EC & the acoustic set does it for me too! Plus some respect for home court (ha no pun) advantage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmtomh Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Yep, EC for me too - acoustic set including the beautiful electric "Tangerine" with harmonizing; plus great performances, and wonderful-sounding sources for the 24th & 25th. And while the Seattle Dazed is an epic, the May 24th ED Dazed is a monster as well, with the great "Woodstock" section instead of the usual "San Francisco." Plus Robert's voice was in a bit better shape, having had nearly two months to rest it after the US Tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but the one from the 21st has the Woodstock version, with "I Shot the Sheriff" by Bob Marley, and "For What It's Worth" by Buffalo Springfield.

f2walsh Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I prefer the performance of Seattle 75 but I love the set list of EC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgeholder Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Not a fair fight, five shows to two. But Earls Court often sounds kinda 'forced' to me, like they're just trying too hard. Whereas they're rockin' on that whole west coast swing in '75 (IMO). The acoustic set is a great addition, though, for sure, plus the EC 'No Quarters' are all pretty stellar, too. If I could be at one of these shows, I think I'd pick Seattle (21st) with the full, kitchen-sink 'Dazed'. If the SBD ever comes out, I'm sure it will stand up to any Earls Court boot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer the "For What It's Worth" of 9.4.70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
