  1. I'm sure everyone here is aware of the recent headline :

    December 25th, 2021

          The end of the year and some truly exciting news from Japan! Announced just a day ago by Tarantura, it reveals that 2022 gonna be a very special year for all the Led Zeppelin collectors.

    From deepest abbyss of the obscurity, we're extremely proud to announce the long awaited Complete Japan 1971 live album!
    Assembled from the best sounding and most complete sources from each of five nights, including never before circulating material and upgraded versions known from previous releases, this new collection representing the ultimate perspective for this memorable part in rock music history.
    After an aborted plan to play Japan in 1970, tied in with Expo 70, Led Zeppelin finally realised the first part of their true 'World tour' dreams with five outstanding, relaxed shows. Following the conclusion of their 7th US Tour on September 17th - the second of a brace of shows in Honolulu - they arrived as superstars on Sunday the 19th. This three-city, five-concert stop-off on the way back from America saw the present some of their most relaxed and inspired performances. Away from the glare of the press and the growing madness of America, this was the perfect opportunity to lay back and stretch out.
    Both Tokyo and Osaka shows were professionally recorded by the local division of Warner Bros. company for potential live release. Rumoured to be destroyed by Page himself due to rather poor quality, it was confirmed by him in person during preparation of "How The West Was Won" and "DVD" in 2003 that these tapes were in potential use as a candidate for a standalone release.
    This new set consists of all known audience recordings available for each of five nights. A special attention should be given to special bonus content, where - after many years of searching - it was possible to find the original master tape known as Rock Carnival, previously available in a heavily degenrated form and considered as being lost for years.
    So, ladies and gentlemen, please sit back, relax and enjoy "How The East Was Won" - the long lost Led Zeppelin live album!

     

    How excited should we really be? Is it going to be more of the same with an EQ variance? Don't get me wrong, I would love to see an upgraded set but really, can it be really worth spending, what, a 1000$ this time? Yes yes I'm a bit of a pessimist but it's really in the hope of being very pleasantly surprised.

    Does anyone have any more info on this?

    Hey guys, 

    If anyone has 'Intimidating Divinity', I'd really appreciate a link. I'm unable to download it from the JRK Remasters blogspot. 

    Hope you're all keeping safe and having a great Christmas. 

    If you're anal about where shit should be posted, then stop reading now. This is my Christmas message to the good people I've met on this forum. 

    I can honestly say that today is the first day I have truly relaxed 'guilt free' all year. The kids are happy, they're getting older and have their friends around (my boys are 9 and 11)....the weather is good in Western Australia and we are lucky enough to have a pool....I have plenty of shit to do, but it can wait. I even had a kip at lunchtime...in bed....for an hour and a half. And Mrs B is very happy pottering around. 

    @chillumpuffer, I was watching the cricket and I drifted off - it's 43 degrees here today and the air con is struggling  Very Very disappointed that England are now 17/2 in their second innings. If I was a bowler, I'd be tearing the batsmen a new arsehole. Even more disappointed they didn't let the test match in Perth go ahead. My dad was over the last time that happened. I can honestly say it was one of the funniest experiences of both of our lives....the barmy army were in terrific form. 

    Anyway, my kids are showing signs of getting into decent music. I've had a gutful of Ed Sheeran, but at least he plays guitar. Oh, and they love the occasional Zep song, and a lot of the Kinks. Especially Lola. I've taken that as an opportunity to explain all manner of stuff to them - sexuality, cross dressing, transgender etc etc. It was pretty awkard (me more than them), so for further information I've referred them to my Lou Reed and Velvet Underground record collection.   

    I'm in the 'Man Cave' (usually 'Kids Cave') - and I'm just listening to a cassette tape copy I did of my vinyl of JP and the Black Crowes at the Greek....on my vintage Sony system. Yeah sure, the tape doesn't sound as good as the vinyl (which I could play at any time - Dad from 1985 - "you don't want to play the record Neil - get blank tapes and wear them out, not the LP"). It's a nostalgia trip...back to my teenage years. Couple of glasses of red wine to boot. I'm feeling good. And sentimental. Can you tell?

    So yeah. I'm over-sharing, but there you go. Happy Christmas and New Year to my friends on the forum. Thanks for all you do for the Zep community @rm2551 @chillumpuffer @duckman @ZepHead315 @hummingbird69 @SteveZ98. You are all very generous people. I listen to a lot of the shit you have done or have shared on bike rides to and from work...or even on my weekend rides. It's enriched my life. 

    Have a good 2022.

    Neil

  5. Does anyone have any sort of hint of news as to what could possibly be left out there that we have yet to hear?

    Have we hit the ceiling of all possible soundboard recordings available out there in the world? :)

     

     

  6. Not to defend either side, but even though I am aware all these shows can be downloaded for free, i'm guilty of buying the silver CDs releases from Tarantura / EVSD over the years.. it appeals to my collector blood and nobody is forcing anyone to buy them .. so.. anyway..

    Thanks for the explanation, but is this special? I guess not... every copy out of 100 got this “sample disc”? Curious to know!

    just got mine today and it has the same marking.
