  1. Look at what Albini did to Nirvana. Nevermind sounded incredible thanks to Butch Vig. Cobain then decides to bring in Albini for the next record and it sounded like complete shit! What a huge mistake that was.

    I have a feeling it was Plants idea to bring in Albini, but Page should never have let that happen.

    Personally, I can't listen to WITC, primarily because of the vocals, they're just awful sounding to me.

    And yes, the songs sound 'much' better live.

    Major dissapointment.

    If you're talking about "In Utero", I think that sounds fine. Better than the mastering on Physical Graffiti, IMO.

    And as far as tunes from WIC sounding better live, maybe, but they played second fiddle to the Zeppelin numbers in concert in 1998. The sets could've done without them and I wouldn't have missed a thing.

  2. Hi ImPLANTed! :D I'm glad. I just hope (as Buck'EYE'doc' said), that nothing bad has happened to him. I PM'd him twice, no response. :( (This is not like him)

    Would you consider ZeppFanForever a man of honor? If so, maybe he's sticking to his guns and not returning to the forum and as such would not be able to answer his PM's.

    Try email.

  3. And it's funny how the original post was started, doesn't have a Zeppelin sound? Hello? It was NOT meant to be a Zeppelin record!

    it's utterly unfair to judge an album to "awful" just because it doesn't sound Led Zeppelin.

    On it's own, I can see that categorization. However, the show I saw of the 1998 tour had 3 songs from it and THE REST were ALL Zeppelin songs. So in THAT context, and seeing as how that WAS the current album by these guys, the music IS going to be compared and lumped together with LZ material.

    So in reality the tour WAS a nostalgic trip into past Zeppelin music and to separate these songs (as not sounding Led Zeppelin-like) from 80% of the setlist seems out of place.

    I don't really care for "Walking into Clarksdale" and thought the 3 songs were the weakest of the night, back in 1998.

  4. Perfect everyday. Upper 80's down in town and near sealevel, no more than 79 degrees up here and 2500 feet and an occasional passing shower. Nightime finds it in the 60's. Tradewinds predominate and the air is pristine and florally fragrant.

    It's paradise actually. Seriously. :)

    It was pretty hot down on the tarmack today though watching the Thunderbirds and checking out the B-52's, B-1 bombers, C-5A's, C130's, BlackHawk's, F-16's, and the new F-22 Stealth Fighter. That one is state of the art and hasn't been used in combat because nothing matches it and they don't waste it on inferior aircraft. It's primarly a deterent right now, superior to any enemy aircraft in the sky.

  5. I do not go out and buy new product very often, so this was big deal for me to get this:

    After reading your post about Target's $5 gift certificate from buying 2 Beatle remasters, I went out and bought 6 discs.

    Please Please Me $11.99

    A Hard Day's Night $11.99

    Revolver $6.99 (normally $11.99)

    Sgt. Pepper $11.99

    The White Album $11.99 (normally $16.99)

    Abbey Road $11.99

    The deal goes on through Oct. 10 so I'll probably get more as well.
