  1. Furthermore, lots of countries had already shut down their boarders and you cannot receive or ship anything except for cargo and medicaments as local airlines are also shut down due to pandemia for at least 14 days if not more.

    Not sure where to post this question...but is anyone else experiencing longer delays (or even parcels missing) after ordering from the Far East these days?

    Correct. The Japan Postal Service is affected by the situation and they put the statement:

    Due to a sudden increase of international deliveries (specifically to China, Hong Kong and Macau) in response to the new corona virus emergency we have received an update from Japan Post that it will take more time than usual to send packages and acquire customs clearance at airports and International Exchange Offices for packages that have already been sent.
    As a result, the delivery of postal items to foreign countries (especially EMS postal items) will be delayed.

    For more information regarding the tracking and delays, please refer to the link below:

    We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

    I guess you're underestimating the importance of that show. Bath 1969 (incl. Led Zeppelin) drew approx. 30.000 people. In 1970 they were widely accepted by English press and fans. Until that point it was mainly the States where they achieved success, the festival was a turning point in their career. It is said the festival attracted some 150,000 people and by the time Led Zeppelin took the stage it was grown to 200,000 people. BTW. it is also said an excellent soundboard recording exists.

    The sound quality was always mediocre, but with this new set we have a much better choice of experiencing this show. I was sceptical too when I first saw this set had to be announced, knowing the fact what the label did with their previous efforts, but as soon as I got my copy I was surprised much of its quality. Of course, it's something for more advanced listeners as the quality is far from perfect, but at least it's better than numerous fan and bootleg releases available in the past.

  4. Ebay, start as auction from minimum bid you want and I bet you'll end with very high price. Be sure to picture your item in the best way possible, to show all the details, and to make your pics in very high resolution. Grade your item first and use Record Collectors guide and follow their rate system.

    Finally put on my "audience ears" and listened to the last night at the Forum in '75. Can't believe I've neglected this show for so long. Maybe one of the best shows I've ever heard by any band. 

     

    Gotta pick up that "Deep Throat" box now. 

    You'd better go for this one, which is an upgrade over Deep Throat and contain exact same material plus a single disc of previously uhearded soundboard:

    I don’t want to start anything I was just genuinely curious about this as a 77 fan, could you tell me the story about this show

    Several years ago there was some discussion concentrated on some uncirculated stuff and this including Indianapolis 1977 audience tape. Some guys were reported to get copies, some of them were hoarding this as well. That's all. Typical horse play here.

    "There won't be any unmolested versions, this guy is a fuckin' arrogance type of man. I have enough of that shit in the community. You can throw me away from this forum for good. I am done." 

    - you, two years ago

    Jees...

    But nobody was gimme gimme. You were suggesting to another board member to contact “someone”, to buy a bootleg. But that “someone” is you, so why the act? Your website is great. Just don’t understand the need to pretend here. Bootledz/Brannon makes himself completely visible to the public, for instance.

    He's not a member here. Again, please do not connect my person with that guy. What are u smoking, guys? You'd better to find some better dealer then.

    Thanks man, much appreciated. I was wondering where to find stuff that's not from EV/Moonchild.

     

    Not at all a "gimmie gimmie" situation here, I would be willing to trade as I stated in my original post, or even buy it if I decide it's worth it.

    Sure, just hit me a message if you want this and I will send him your inquiry.

    Same here, especially given AA's history withing the Zeppelin community...

    You're still missing me with that guy. Why are you so stubborn, hah? Perhaps not enough knowledge as to who is who...typical in such place.

    Ignore him. He's a hypocrite. When the LTTE alternate source popped up a couple of years ago, he had a complete meltdown because the taper wouldn't give his master tapes to him (and him alone) so he could work his "magic" on them and polish them up. If that's not the epitome of the "gimme gimme" attitude he claims to rail against, then I don't know what is.

    It wasn't me, you stupid asshole!

    I could not care less whether something is an unreleased board tape or not, no boots were board tapes until Page left himself open to "the theft". Your comment  [''If I could sit on any uncirculated stuff, I wouldn't hesitate to make money on it'' ]  is flabbergasting, I bet you would sell a "Winston" if you could get away with it.  One other thing, don't call me bro. 

    So what's the fuckin' problem by your side? Did you suffer from fact he opened his vaults eventually? You should be grateful for that, as if not, we would eventually stay with mediocre quality aud tapes, that's all. My comment reveals exactly of what the capitalism is. If you want something, just pay for that! I can agree that bootlegs are illegal and if someone's selling them, it's a theft but hell, we all thefts as we all listening to something that couldn't be even discussed when shown from perspective of any musician/owner.
    So get you off, pal!

    Teenage wankers ? That's not very nice is it. You're probably not old enough to remember the mid 1970's when bootlegs were just a few pence/cents more than a regular release, not tens of £s or $s. (My first bootleg cost me £ 2.25p, "Mudslide" on green vinyl)

    I'm not crying because the torrent sites don't have this,  yet. I can wait, it will appear soon enough. I could not give two fucks that esvd(sic) whomever  they  are paid through nose for the stolen (unless one is a conspiracy theorist that think Page is supplying them) tape, they can go and fuck themselves with their crying arses whining about torrent sites posting their stolen wares, it's not about being able to afford their rip off prices, I can, but no way am I. In fact I am never going to give any bootlegger my money ever again, they can shove their products as far up their arses as they can get them. So  grow up kid, get off your high horse and accept the many of us will just sit back and wait. 

    Case well and truly. Open.

    They were cheaper a lot, but none of them contained unreleased board tape. I really do not see any further point of explaining this as, from what I see, lots of you'd probably won't buy even a complete soundboard because you tend to think it should be for free. If I could sit on any uncirculated stuff, I wouldn't hesitate to make money on it. It's the real world we're living in, bro! Or maybe you should go and eventually ask North Korea for permanent visa? ;)

    While I'm not a teenager anymore, I am still in my early-20s and in grad school.  I can't justify spending over $300 on an actual ticket to a concert, much less a bootleg of half of a show.  I would love to have the physical copies with the nice packaging, and will gladly pay for same once I'm established in my career.  In the meantime, as others have said, I would gladly pay $50-$75 for these titles, and I think many others would as well...600 copies at $50 vs. 100 copies at $300 -- what difference is it to them?  Still $30,000...

    It's all about the prestige, something that younger generation completely have no clue what is all about. In my youth getting a bootleg or go to a show was something BIG, something special. There were no downloads, no CDs, just vinyl, tapes and snail male trading. We've been more than grateful if someone would eventually get us into something like that and we got a big respect to everything. Now you have everything but yet you do not wanna pay any fuckin' cent for it! That tells a lot! You're missing a very important part of something that is highly related with the nature of so called subculture - to be a someone from the club, someone important, someone distinguish. Today kids aren't even close to be elite in any aspect. Free Net, free music, free food...Jees, what else you'd call for free? A bread from your local bakery because you don't wanna pay for it?

    Rubbish! All the guy did was ask for more of the show. Who are you to lecture him? 
     
    If EV had the business acumen to release their titles at a reasonable price, many more would be prepared to buy. They would double their profits. In fact, they would also be cornering the market if Eelgrass. 
     

    The fact they are so expensive in the first place is bad enough. However, they then fuck you over by only giving you half the show, and charging you a fortune for the rest.  
     

    Make the releases $50 each and everyone wins. 

    And before you lecture me, I’ve bought bootlegs and shared them with other fans. But I’m not buying this and being shafted twice. 

    I told this many times before but it looks you're one of those, who would get more wanky job than learning!

    So here's again: EV had to bought these tapes, and likely they have to spend a lot of $ at the start. Now they are trying to recover the capital, and of course, making some money on it. The Japanese copyright laws allows to release bootlegs as long as they're strictly limited, distributed in exact places and contain absolutely none of their native artists. It is called a loophole.

    Now you and dozens of teenage wankers are crying because you cannot get it for free.

    My proposition is: learn more, find a good school, get a proper job so you can afford EV products.

    If you're still have any objections of what I typed above, it means you're just 1) stupid, 2) not enough educated; 3) very stubborn.

    Case closed.

    It's because Japanese do hear different than we, Europeans, they much often paying more attention to higher freq's frequently. Just listen to any of Japanese versions of any of our fav band's albums, they all sounding a bit tweaked when compared to the UK or US pressings. Even early vinyl reissues differs slightly.

    Also, the EQ could be use to mask/hide some of the inaccuracies in the audio but this is of course a very amateur way of mastering.
    I wish T2K more released like this though, if they can keep up this kind of mastering, then I'll be their casual client as I do love their deluxe, lavish packaging. It is much better of what EV does offer these days...
