Good Post!!!

That was cool

I use 10s but have been contemplating a hybrid set where the three fats are from a set if tens and the skinnies are from nines... set up a guitar with heavy strings and do warmups then lighter strings are a breeze... or even better play a bass till your hands feel like they are going to fall apart for a week running scales and dissecting intervals then go back to your six string... it'll feel like buttah... I use Ernie Ball slinkies and make em last forever... it really comes down to the amount of oil your hands secreet... had a rhythm guitarist in a past band that just flew through strings his hands ate them up... also some string sets just get too much air to em before you even put em on and that gives em a head start on rust...

thank you for turning me on to this show... its awesome!!!

in terms of phrasing i'm with you... there are guitarist that i can pick up their phrasing and comprehend the "flow".... but not really Page... i can learn the parts but his feeling is amazing and hard to nail... i will take all the "sloppiness" in the world from Page because out of that comes moments where he plays notes on that guitar that make me feel like no other... and make a cat purr for days ;-) ... ...as far as Page and his physical stature even hand size I feel like the tele may have fit him better... but come on who could resist a les paul...

Listening to George's I Need You the other day i find that song would be so different if mixed with drum & bass more up front...any live versions?

great show great vibe...

Deep Purple had badass music and yes that japanese live album was badass but the lyrics kind of lacked and i felt Ian Gillan tried to sing out of his vocal range sometimes when he was comfortable it was good... Blackmore was always trying to reach higher and higher with DP and i believe it was because he didn't want to live in the shadow of those other great british bands

the first show on the 21st has lesser quality recording but with headphones cranked its unbelievable ... the second night you can tell they are a little tired from the first night but as they warm up wow... so on par with 71 Japan ...

Ummmm Zeppelin as a live band vs. The Who... Go listen to Zeppelin live LA Forum 1971 bootleg... not the greatest quality but crank it up listen intently and then tell me about a live band....

Wow!!!!

Jack Bruce... a man of soul of passion ... he pushed the boundaries of improvisation creatin.g new boundaries ... my dad gave me Wheels of Fire at 16 on vinyl and I fell head over hills for Cream... as an artist musician visionary and legend... you will be loved and missed and you will live on forever

Pete Townshend is a horrible singer!!!

not thread hijacking and i know this is an older post but when i read this i kinda thought... ahem.. Queen? ... in terms of The Who vs Zep... musician to musician... Zep wins... The Who may have genre jumped a bit but their pop/commmercial appeal in some circles puts them below a band like zep who were churning out juggernauts like Achilles, Kashmir, or No Quarter ...

No Quarter 7/24/79.... killer version all around

i did not know that about the doors and the kinks but that sounds ludicrous... interesting and informative though...

Check out the first 4 notes of Peter Green doing this BB King song... don't see them suing... should one artist sue because another artist used the same A note or the same Fmaj arpeggio...(sarcastically) "oh all they did was play it in a different order"... who was the first to use a I IV V blues progression lets resurrect them from the grave so they can sue every blues musician in history... this kind of bs makes lawyers who take these cases look like ignorant morons...

That was rad... and touched on so many flavors

^^^^I was thinking this was the case as well...when i first heard it i wondered about the "delay" as well... i felt it kinda rendered the start of the solo a little anti-climactic ... i say a little because overtime i got used to it and plus I've grown to love the live raw experimentation... ... plus figuring out how he makes the switch on the double neck adds to the general conversation of how hard Jimmy had to work night in and night out to get that Zeppelin nice and toasty... i break a sweat just daydreaming of playing a 3 hour plus setlist... 3 hrs of guitar is no f-ing joke

I know its a bit off topic but i wish there was footage from the bearded era after seeing. the covers of those bootlegs
