RockDude4492 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Hello, As I'm sure some of you might have heard, EV has a new Soundboard Revolution release entitled "Deus Ex Machina." However, that is so far the only information offered regarding this SB. Anyone have an inkling of an idea of what it could be? Only thing I have heard talk of recently is the possibility of a Japan '71 soundboard, of which we have gotten only "Black Dog" so far. Any other thoughts?

SteveAJones Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 "Deus Ex Machina" (God From the Machine) is frequently associated with motorcycles. A photo of them on motorcyles in Australia is known to exist (it's the first one in the Zeppelin Photo Mysteries Thread). http://deuscustoms.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reswati Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Deus ex machina (meaning "god from the machine").The term has evolved to mean a plot device whereby a seemingly unsolvable problem is suddenly and abruptly resolved by the inspired and unexpected intervention of some new event, character, ability or object. Depending on how it is done, it can be intended to allow a story to continue when the writer has "painted themself into a corner" and sees no other way out, to surprise the audience, to bring the tale to a happy ending, or as a comedic device.

luvlz2 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 According to Led Zeppelin news, rumours suggest that it's a recording from 1975. Due to be released in May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZepHead315 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Even though people are tiring of all the 75 soundboards (myself included), I'm still looking forward to this one, assuming it is indeed the Houston show. Never had a recording until now, so it'll be interesting to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Only Way To Fly Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I'm for any new release in good quality 75 or not. Looking forward to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticks of Fire Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 FWIW, someone told me it was a 1977 show and I do trust my source. It just depends if he was given good solid info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pluribus Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 If it's a 1977 show, I'd hope for the Badgeholders gig. Fits with the Deus Ex Machina bit with Keith Moon showing up later in the show. If it's a 1975 show, maybe the Chicago show when they first started playing How Many More Times as a substitute for Dazed and Confused? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a variety of reasons Baton Rouge '77 is one of my personal Zeppelin Holy Grails...we already know Birmingham is one of the better shows from the tour and Greensboro is basically Bonzo's Birthday Party '77 (the gig was on May 31)- how bad can that be? No, we haven't heard Houston '75, either, but all those mid period '75 soundboards we've gotten of late are starting to all run together and sound the same to me. I listened to Fort Worth once and that was enough... 2 hours ago, pluribus said: If it's a 1975 show, maybe the Chicago show when they first started playing How Many More Times as a substitute for Dazed and Confused? Now that I'd be down with- I love them early '75 gigs with "How Many More Times", we don't have any of those shows in soundboard format, and it's high fucking time we got one!

Hi Nutty I knew you'd say that and you know I am not a lover of the 77 tour. I sure hope you get what you want? And no I am not hoarding the tapes. It depends on how the band perform or not as the case may be? One thing I do agree with is an early 75 show with How Many More Times or even When The Levee Breaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did not play any concerts where all three of those songs were performed. When the Levee Breaks was dropped after the January 20th show and How Many More Times was added for the January 21st show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Quota Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 The matrix of a soundboard and a MM audience source from LA 75 would be epic. A soundboard of Atlanta 77 would be nice. It's like the week before Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a soundboard of one of the Millard LA shows from 77 for that matter. God, just imagine what a matrix would sound like. Imagine hearing the opening of TSRTS on 6/21 in sound quality equivalent to Four Blocks in the Snow! Sigh...we can only hope and dream! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recent soundboard for Fort Worth 75 was titled "Rock Super Stars", which I thought was an otherwise random title, until I noticed that it was a reference to the headline of the newspaper article previewing the show. Maybe "Deus Ex Machina" is listed somewhere in an article for one of the shows from 1975-1977? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that's the "machina" ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
