    Just YouTube those baby's! Pretty much all Zep boots are available on YouTube now and you can listen for free...Bonus! No need to buy. I have not bought a boot in years as I just YouTube it and feed it to the stereo. Anything by LedZepBoots is almost guaranteed to be good and there are other sources as well on YT. An example of a middling quality would be Copenhagen 71' (and I listen to this all the time because the quality is good enough and the performance is stellar) and a good quality are most of the 75' - 77' boots. There are several boots from 72'-80' which are excellent quality and more and more come out which are official release quality. Anything by Mike Millard is pretty close to official release quality as are most of the hybrids (combo of audience & soundboard recordings). 

     

    Agreed. That's what I do as well regarding YT.

    Page actually looks very good right now, he's aged better than Plant.  Pretty amazing.

    That's quite astounding how well Page has aged considering what his lifestyle was during the 70's and a good chunk of the 80's. Too bad he gave up on making new music and performing for the most part 20 years ago. He could have given us so much more, but I'll take what he gave us and very thankful for that!

    I imagine the boys are waiting until the Beatles doc runs its course.

    I have been thinking the same thing as may be part of the reason it's being held back. Although, there may be some more re-editing of the doc as some of the reviews were a bit mixed. I'm sure they want to release a great product. Although, most of the reviews have said that much of the doc is great but needs to focus more on certain things. Like creating their sound and perhaps input and interviews with others outside the band would give it more substance. Either way, I hope I get to see it one day.

    Yeah, D+C from 75 is f***ing tedious lol. I usually skip straight to the Woodstock/SF section then straight to the outro - or just skip the song altogether. There are a handful from that year that are killer and fly by for me, but they are rare. 

    I agree. One of the Seattle versions is very good from 1975, even though so long.

  5. Skip the Guitar Solo in 1977 for certain. Not crazy about the WLL/RAR encores from that tour either with the harmonizer effect Plant uses. Most years of Moby Dick but I do enjoy the Blueberry Hill version from 1970 as only 11 minutes at that point. Also Dazed from 1975 as way too long at 40 minutes plus. There may be some others I'm forgetting but most everything else I'll listen to.

  6. Good to hear. At least we know a little something. It would be cool if the film gets nominated for an Oscar at the 2022 Academy Awards. I wouldn't be surprised, considering the filmmakers involved in this and their work with "American Epic." Gotta see that some time. It's on Netflix or Prime but not free. Wish it was. The main criteria for a film to be eligible to be nominated for an Academy Award is that a particular film must have at least one showing in a theatre before the New Year strikes in a given year. I'm quite sure about this. So "Becoming Led Zeppelin" meets that with the showings at the Venice Film Festival and Telluride as well.

    But, I'm still looking for word on a release date for the film so I can finally see it as all of you are. We shall see if something more is included with the release. I thought the release would be close to the 50th anniversary of Zep IV, but I'm sure it will now be next year. Who knows when. Either way, I can't wait to see it!

     

    Do you think we will hear something on Monday as it is the 50th anniversary of Led Zeppelin IV?   HMMMM?  I'm thinking this or something is possible as such a big date for the band!

    Moving to a new house a couple of months ago set me back, so I haven't finished the 4/27/69 show, although I've made a lot of progress. I don't think I will be able to make the second part of the show (Killing Floor, etc.) sound as good as the first part (As Long As I Have You, etc.), but I'm trying to improve it as much as possible before I release it. At some point I'll realize I've done as much as I can given how bad the second part sounded to begin with, but I'm not ready to give up yet so it will be a while before I'm ready to release it.

    Thanks and sounds good. I appreciate this very much and the amount of love and passion you put into these remasters.

  8. Steve as there is another show from the same date back in 1969, I was wondering if you ever finished remastering that show from the Fillmore. You said you were still working on it a few months ago. I'm sure it will be a gem from the sample you provided and from the other shows you've done. Great work! Send me a link when it's complete. The version I have sounds good but could use some remastering to bring the sound out more and clarity too.

    Powerful, yes, but woefully incomplete. Missing "Whole Lotta Love" and the encores sinks it below the top 10 in my opinion. Plus, the soundboard is overloaded on bass and sounds muddy and dull compared to the other 1971 soundboards.

    That's how I've always felt about the Hampton show. It needs a good remix by SteveZ98 who has done a good job with some of these shows.
