Well, I'm not talking about mp3. Lossless files ripped to a cdr that you can blast on your stereo is one way to economically enjoy Winston's work for very little cost or time. $10 is fine I guess for the disc and artwork but it is disrespectful to WRs wishes that his work not be sold for profit.
True. But...
Like the band and their wishes of not having their music bootlegged, I'm sure Winston and every other bootlegger has their own wishes too.
It all comes down to the consumer.
If Page and Winston were worried about losing money because of me listening to some old concerts, I'm sure they would sell some recordings anonymously, or start their own label to cash in. Cough.
They won't or can't, or they have, and we will probably never know.
People who are fans will give up cash for something they truly love. If Page doesn't like it, release some nuggets, if Winnie is opposed, start a "Silver Rails" company. Either way, people pay.

10 bucks to have a copy of a Winston in a format that can't be deleted or erased is ok with me.
MP3 is not the end all. I'd pay 50 bucks for a Winston vinyl.
Hell, I paid 15 bucks for a Katy Perry cd for my daughter. Hmmm. LTE or Roar.

I always heard it was Four Sticks. Odd time signatures and such.

It's not youtube but it is a video.
New Wonder Woman teaser with Stairway as the music.

All I can find is it (soundboard) was released by Wendy Records in November 2011.

The 2/3/75 NY show is full of hilarity.

They played on some of the SAME sessions in the 1960s, though Ritchie is a little younger than Jimmy. I can't say for certain, but it seems there is a lack of positive connection between them.
However, there was also an interview he gave to Rolling Stone magazine that was published in their April 10, 1975 issue. In it, he says "I haven’t taken steps toward becoming a guitar star simply because I don’t fit the mold. That’s best left to people like Jimmy Page, who took the part. I always get embarrassed when I start flaunting myself. I could be very sexy onstage, but all that business is rather silly. I know I’m a great guitarist. I know I can blow any other guitarist off any stage..." In the same interview, the author reports that a label spokesman said that no one, not even Led Zeppelin, was selling more records worldwide than Deep Purple.
I do remember there's an offstage photo of Page circa 1973 that I humorously captioned "Call me Ritchie Blackmore one more time and see what happens!" The resemblance then can be striking.
I wonder if Plant is picking on Jimmy when in NY 77' he says, "one that we're attempting for the second time for the benefit of a man who usually sits in the second row... a Ritchie Blackmore look-alike, wherever he's gone."

If I'm getting your question correct, I thought the "blast off" part was Page slamming the cord against his strings when I first heard it. I have heard him say he actually pressed down the whammy bar as far as it would go and then "catastrophically" released it.

Here's a link to an extended version of Fire I put together with audacity. I included a short spacey manipulated middle section and then back to the song. I tried to finish it for the boys.
Great job!

Same here. The guy that ran it was here a few months ago plugging the site, might have been his undoing, unfortunately.
Undoing how? Too much traffic? Copyright? I assumed the site was out of Japan.
Thanks for the replies.

Atlanta 77. Trying to clean it up a bit using software. Aint technology amazing?!
On a side note without starting a thread on the subject, is the fantastically "beautiful black" website that is set on a "starship" and a MP3 source been shut down? I haven't been able to access it for several weeks now.
Pardon the hints in parenthesis. Not sure about any rules naming websites by name.

What a great website. Joined for two reasons. To finally find some like minded fans of the greatest improvisational live band ever (including rock, country, orchestra
and to answer this question.Grew up in late 60's early 70's too young to appreciate good music. I remember mom hopping around the house cleaning and picking up listening to Neal Diamond and Elvis on the tiny radio, but other than that, my mind was into bikes, tree houses and fishing.
Then came The Hi-Fidelity Stereo my dad bought around '76. Big nobs, lights and speakers. The amp looked like a jet dashboard. The record player had a strobe to "tune in" the speed. Neat stuff to a near teen.
I remember hearing Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac and really liking this "edgier music".
Then came "Frampton Comes Alive" and the final solo. I was hooked and began to want to play guitar.
Teen years came with love for Skynyrd (mainly because we could play it) and any other guitar type bands.
In the early to mid 80's, Zeppelin was hard to find on the radio. Dinosaurs.
New music with it's catchy sounds (think Malmstien) and V.H. were what was pushed music-wise. And who could deny that Yngve and Randy were playing more notes per second than anyone else!!! They must be the greatest!
One day in late in high school years a fellow guitar player grabbed me by the shoulders and said "I saw The Song Remains the Same last night. And JIMMY PAGE IS THE BEST GUITARIST EVER".
Not many of the fellow guitarists believed him, mainly because LZ was too hard to play. Not many garage bands were doing Four Sticks.
This resonated with me and a few months later (things moved a lot slower back then) I bought the album version of TSRTS because I figured that the live version of Stairway was on it.
Then, as the love story goes, along came No Quarter. "Holy Fecal Matter!!!". What a song. I was hooked and started to slowly accumulate the catalogue from 1 to Coda.
Each album was captivating in it's music and mystery. Each album now can evoke memories of the months dedicated to its listening. This post could get ridiculously long to speak of those stories. From acid trips to sword making, we all have 'em.
My first foray into the boots came in the early 90's. Like every Zeppelin fan, starving for a fix of anything Zep.
I had just broken up with a high school sweetheart and a friend had picked up the Paris Theater BBC boot "Going to California".
I was floored. The ambiance and beauty of GTC and jazzy feel of WIAWSNB was intoxicating. I was hooked.
I could go on, but I really like Zep and after 25 years of collecting, I can say I have every concert recording that is out there and have listened to them all. (There may be a MD or two that I skipped).
50 years old and I'm still blown away. Often copied but never equaled. The music is always fresh.
I was at a Zoso (tribute band) concert lately and I enjoyed watching the young crowd mouth every word as much as the music.
Timeless.
It's good being an old fart and being vindicated. Long live the greatest improvisational, mysterious, sonically powerful, talented band ever.
Favorite/Best version of Since I've Been Loving You

I've always kinda liked the 80's version with Munich at the top of my list. For those who like the solo, you get two for one on this tour and this one has a meloncholy blues and a sadness that is unique.
