  1. Yessir! I'd never ask for another Zep recording again if we got these two. IS from 6/15 is some of the nastiest, raunchiest playing from Jimmy's entire career. And the D&C is just bone crushing.
  2. ^^What a shame... that that's considered some of the best footage we have.
  3. Love it! Care to offer more? I personally love the EC run. A best of 5/23, 24 and 25 would make for one ridiculously good & HEAVY live album.
  4. Holy shit, can't believe I'm just now stumbling upon this. Almost brings a tear to my eye that there's no recording of this....
  5. The last 2 minutes or so of Carouselambra are great (starting at Bonzo's fills at 8:08, but I especially love the last minute). Bonham is just going crazy and the tension is just fantastic. Has always been one of my favorite parts of any Zep tune. Evidence that Zep could still bring (a bit of) the Hammer of The Gods when it wanted to.
  6. Really-REALLY-love this album. Page's solos are incendiary. The crunch of his solos in INE, the one in SBS you mentioned, and IGC... which is simply beautiful. And yeah, SBS... no matter how many times I try to keep time with Bonzo I manage to F it up. I just can't figure it out. His drumming on that entire album is fantastic.
  7. I didn't stop to think about the post too much. You're right. Still a great last album that gets dumped on too much by critics. ITTOD is fantastic.
  8. Boy... I've never thought of it THAT way. The greatest last album a band, ANY BAND, ever released. Wow. How true is that??????
  9. I've rediscovered this album recently. Have fallen back in love with it all over again. Substitute Wearing For Tearing for Hot Dog and it's a Killer F'ing album all the way thru.
  10. Not a huge fan of the this live, but going to give this a listen. Thanks. The studio version is just brilliant. You ever "reconnect" with a Zep tune after some time off? This and The Epic (which should've been used on the official release)... recently, just can't get enough of either of these songs.
  11. Cannot believe this is the first I've seen of this. Damn that was awesome. What a F*CKING catalog of music they have!!! Just gets me all goosebumply, if that's a word.
  12. That's Paul Rodgers?? It looks just like a young Walter Matthau. Great thread, BTW.
  13. Yeah-a little bit. Went and listened to it again and Jimmy is a little weak. Bonzo is magnificent (as usual in 77) which hides a lot of Jimmy's sloppiness.
  14. Yep. And just listen to Bonham on the 5/24/75 STH. He gets overlooked because it's one of Jimmy's best ever solos, but Bonham was spectacular on it.
  15. I've always stayed away from this one. This and Greensboro 75. Too much of a diehard fanboy to listen to arguably their two worst shows. Will. Not. Do. It!!!!
  16. Bonzo's fills are so fast and clean it's remarkable. ALS might be my favorite version. Never understood the reviews Luis Rey gave these 2 shows.
  17. Very true. I don't expect it to ever happen... but it could/would be monumental if it did. And I've said it many times before... why won't Jimmy release audio of STH and TU from the 24th?! They are INCREDIBLE versions.
