  1. This is one of the greatest things, you being here and sharing the story. All zep fans consider you like a goddess!!! Welcome.
  2. yup just as I thought, 2:15 for sure and 2;21 most likely. Think like an editor-after a complete phrase- good time to get in I mean just guessing, I hear all kinds of shit in those records- lots of times im wrong- no big deal. think about it though, the first album went real good---the second album shaping up nicely. "just roll the tape ill do it in 3 passes---unlikely---he would have wanted to think long and hard about it and have lots of option you can be sure, but i wasnt there
  3. All right check this out, I splice this stuff all the time. You can use ten reels of solos real easy, just roll tape and start doing thing. Then you go back and listen to all the solos and just take the best few parts and nick em together, totally a pagy thing to do, no big deal. just because you have 10 tapes doesn't mean you take little bits from each performance, the song is spliced together already. I read somewhere probably here that page said" its important to always have the tape rolling when mixing because you never know what youll get." how i remember it. Pete townsend did like 3500 splices baba oriely. Then after you have the coolist most casual vibes pieced together, when you play live- you kinda just play like the record. Thats how you get records to sound spontaniuos- because they are, but when your playing spontainous sometimes you get shitty stuff in there to because your taking risks. hence you edit out the shit stuff and are left with the cool stuff. Ill go back and listen and tell where the edits are, its usually obvious once you know what your looking for. I have to admit however that I would have never have thought this when listening to heartbreaker as a child but now I know- thats how its done Page invented a lot those techniques
  4. very interesting, some cats can splice tape so fast and clean you would never know, as far as choosing bits from multiple takes-its a vibe thing - splicing the vibes together, I could see it

  8. I was just watching a movie "Small Town Girl " 1936. I wasn't really paying attention and then one of the characters said, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, "...............Stairway to Paradise" this really percked up my ears and watching the movie a little longer a character was introduced as "ZOSO" "Zoso" this and "Zoso" could this classic film have been a partial inspiration? I guess we'll never know for sure.
