  1. And on the reverse side of the negativity dump, hey - professionally recorded, multi tracked Live Led Zeppelin is finally making it's way to us after almost 50 years in the can. I don't understand all this stupid negativity. EV is releasing these tapes, be glad. You certainly don't have to buy them, they will be available for download soon enough, much sooner than 4+ decades they have sat. If you do want to buy them then cheaper options will emerge for you so just can all the jackmonkey complaining and celebrate what we are getting you snivelling bat farts. This is the greatest Led Zeppelin release in well over a decade and you just gripe and complain how its not just as you want it to be. Boohoo. You all sound like a bunch of ninnies. Now I remember why i hadn't been bothered to post at this site in so long. Also, if EV does not make money on these releases they will not continue. That is the most important point. Let them make their money, they are holding the most precious commodity available to us and if they cant make profit there is no incentive to release the tapes to a bunch of people who have constantly slagged them all over the internet. Thank you EV, my wallet is open - keep the tapes coming please.
  2. I ordered my copy of this first installment of the 09/29/1971 show. Hopefully when the next part drops it will complete the show. (I'll be buying that one too, of course) Here is to the joy of unheard, pro-recorded, Led Zeppelin tapes from their defining era finally coming to the unwashed masses.
  3. Yeah, it's pretty good. I ripped and the copy I bought off Ebay from Japan, made the video, posted it on youtube, then shared the link. 😉
  4. For those that have not heard the full soundboard version yet... Finally it's available - Stairway To Heaven Osaka, Japan 09-29-1971 ENJOY !! https://youtu.be/Hzpq-LNVU44
  5. Killer 1958 Les Paul solos from Mark, the last one is blistering.
  6. The June 19th 1977 show in San Diego was also strangely disappointing, come to think of it so is the March 10th, 1975 San Diego show. All of the SD shows were right around the time of other epic performances. Hmmmm.... maybe the local San Diego drug dealer had bad stuff.
  7. Holy sh!T bro, what is the tracklist ?
  8. I too enjoy reading the opinions of shows from other fans. None of us are ever going to agree about anything except that Led Zeppelin freakin' rocked !! How hard they rocked at a show cannot be determined by Page's flubs or his awesomeness alone of course because other things we cannot measure went into the entirety of the show as both an audio and visual experience. Seattle 03-21-75 is a prime example - how many fans went home that night complaining about Led Zeppelin's performance ? I'm guessing that occasionally some of JP's flubbs could be traced back to showmanship, doing something for the visual aspect of the show, he was quite the showman as well as guitar player and he obviously took that part to heart wearing elaborate stage costumes and using his well known book of Rock and Roll guitar player moves. 03-03-75 Fort Worth is one of my very favorite 1975 shows even though Jimmy and Robert are not in top form, Bonham and Jones really step it up and the overall energy the band brought as a whole unit that night is top tier. At least to my ears, Jimmy was really trying and had the energy and will to play hard that night, but his finger was holding him back.
  9. I'll go with Hamburg and Essen 1973 with an honorable mention for both Seattle '73 and '75 (03/21/75)
  10. Some great stuff on the companion discs, the OP must have moosh for brains.
  11. Stupid double post crap !! WTF how do we delete a post ? So annoying....
  12. This is a pic I photoshopped my Shih Tzus, Noni and Oggy, into with Robert.

  14. Well, if it wasn't for Charles Martel all of Europe would most likely be islamic. Imagine if Europe was like iran and pakistan since 732 AD. The world would be completely different....and goats would be very scared.
  15. Just saw Mark Knopfler at Red Rocks on the 23rd of September, great show.
  16. Once they started putting rap "artists"in the R&RHOF it became a joke. Even maddonna was voted in, and before RUSH was for God's sake.
  17. Annie Lennox, Ann Wilson, Stevie Nicks, and Bonnie Raitt though i'm not sure if Bonnie is Rock and Roll or blues/Folk. Either way she has a beautiful and powerful voice. If we are just talking about amazing pipes then Patti Labelle is very hard to beat though calling her a rock vocalist is a stretch.
  18. The ending of Dazed and Confused played at Essen 03-22-1973.
  19. This guy can finger pick like nobody's biznezz. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9Qevx6Q6gc
