cheesehead1204 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 What's your favorite version of Dazed And Confused officially released to cd? Personally, I choose the version from The Song Remains The Same. The vocals are a bit overdone in some spots, but the middle section of the song is better than any of the other live efforts in my opinion. I do really like the Studio version too, obviously.

danelectro Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Studio for me. Live that's one of the songs where Robert could be a little too over the top IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ally Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 For me, it's Hampton 71. Brilliant solo section and improv. One of those shows where Bonzo and Jonesy make Jimmy catch up. Too bad there's a cut towards the end of the tape Cudos to Osaka 9/29/71 as well ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi_Zep_Fan87 Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I like the Studio Version the best! There is that certain vulnerability and rawness in Robert's voice which I just adore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom kid Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Essen '73, Bonzo and Jimmy are so in sync with one another that it's ridiculous. 17/7/73 would have to have the best bow solo I've ever heard though. As for official releases, definitely TSRTS. HTWWW is great, as is the Albert Hall but I just love the 'San Francisco' section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babyzoso Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I like the BBC session one and the Albert Royal Hall version the SRTS one didn't sound right it sound so different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPJ = the groovinator Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I can't decide so I'll just mention the parts I really enjoy from each version. Studio - the original and that's that TSRTS - wonderful version, i really love the intro harmonic phrases, the verse guitar fills, the pre-bow solo jam is superb, very dynamic guitar solo, and the ending drum solo is absolutely insane and nothing reaches that intensity. BBC 1 - bonzo's drumming is extra powerful on this track BBC 2 - haven't givin it many play throughs HTWWW - flawless crunge jam, best bow solo i have heard from page, ending coda jam is the best i've heard followed by a pounding drum solo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazedcat Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 The original studio version. Very concise and very powerful. I don't need to hear Page drag a bow across his guitar for 20 minutes anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangani Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 I actually prefer the BBC sessions on disc 1 from '69. As has been mentioned, Bonzo's drumming on that is so damn powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Fills the Air Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 TSRTS remastered version. I was listening to that version yesterday, and middle section with Jimmy's solo is just amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackDog71 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I seem to be in the minority here, but I like HTWWW version. Very crisp sound to it. I just like the feel and groove of it the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Dog_90 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Studio version. I know it is a studio recording but this version is the most powerful in my opinion. All band members did a great job and even topped themselves, especially Robert Plant. Live version are great too and I like them a lot but I think The Song Remains The Same version is the most magical one. I especially like "San Francisco" part and bow section. It is just amazing and pure magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastress of procrastinate Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I like the Studio Version the best! There is that certain vulnerability and rawness in Robert's voice which I just adore! Just my thoughts PLus, I like the studio version because it is more concentrated. I am not always in the mood for extended jams. But when TSRTS is my version of choice.

ally Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I seem to be in the minority here, but I like HTWWW version. Very crisp sound to it. I just like the feel and groove of it the most. It still has that early tours heaviness about it that short of the bow section, is missing from TSRTS soundtrack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 TSRTS, Original Album. Bonzo is on fire! As for a bootleg, Southampton 1973. A great long jam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[it doesnt matter because it pales in comparison to BBC Disc 1] [oh yes... the sustained fuzz on jimmy's guitar as he exits the middle section back to the main body @5:00-5:05 in this version is one of the greatest 5 seconds in rock history] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
