This is mislabeled on YouTube. it is not outtakes but rather the basic tracks without overdubs. This would have made a great companion disc. I think this album is Aerosmith's best and it is burned into my memory because it was released almost the same time as Presence. My friends and I wore out multiple 8 track copies of both albums in the crazy spring and summer of 1976.

April 1973 live in a studio

For studio recordings: Night Flight

This was the first time I saw Yes. Great set list spanning their career to that point. I was glad they played the Future Times/Rejoice and Awaken. In the round so everyone had a good seat at the Garden. Pretty good audience recording. A fantastic evening.

Danny Gatton and Vince Gill - quite a pairing

good article but I noticed it says Zep played there in 1979.

I used to buy the models to sell in my dad's store. I learned that from my older brother. We all built alot of models too. We had some strange traditions too with models. One was we would pour glue on battleship models and light them on fire in our neighbor's pool to make battle scenes. Man did we get in trouble when he got caught! Just so you know, the neighbor kid was my older brother's best friend and chief instigator in this crazy activity. One time my brother was getting frustrated with a model and he threw it against the wall in our basement where we all built models. The next few times anyone got frustrated with a decal or something he would say "you should just wall it" He drew a big X on the wall and soon on a regular basis models were being demolished against that wall. It was a stone wall - very old house. We also built balsa wood model airplanes in middle school shop class, covering the wings with that thin paper and then coating it with "dope" and yes it really was called "dope". My favorite models were WWII fighter planes.

I will gladly defend the 1977 tour and explain it from my point of view any time. Only time I saw them. Just missed 1975 MSG because parents said I was too young (15 going on 16) to go to the City with my older brother and his friends. Sure the tour had its low points but so much of it was just amazing and over the top.

Thanks for posting this. I had not heard this particular compilation/mix before. That is kick ass! Celebration Day 1971 - always one of my favorite Zeppelin live moments.

Listen to Jones in The Song Remains the Same. Four years to the day before the Kingdome show.

What a great idea for a thread. I was nine, almost 10. We watched so many launches and missions in the 60s I don't recall the specific launch, but I do clearly recall watching live when Armstrong stepped out and on to the moon. I also remember getting a free lunar landing module model every day at the local Texaco station. My brothers, friends and I spent lots of time building those models and acting out the whole series of steps in the mission from when the LEM left the orbiting ship with Michael Collins to take Armstrong and Aldrin down to the moon. It was a very big deal that summer. My parents were really into it, maybe just because we were so into it, but they made sure we were awake to watch the first steps on the moon.

From the 1958 recording The Scene Changes. The whole album is excellent.

Here is a sampling http://starship.jpn.ph/zeppelin/beauty/disp/boot.jsp?R_idx=947

That sounds fantastic! Thanks for all these remasters you are doing.

The things you can find on YouTube

I love the original version with vocals, but this instrumental version is much heavier and quite different. Howe and Squire are really rocking this one and so locked in together. It was such a revelation to hear this so many years after the original.

Have you heard the DADGAD remaster of the show?

The first time I saw them in the late 70s Rick did this wailing solo spot where he just went crazy. After one blistering run he stopped and said "That was a thousand times better than FRED NUGENT!!" (He really did call him Fred Nugent - the crowd went ape.) Then he continued wailing and stopped - looked out at the audience and said "Almost as good as - - - JIMMY PAGE!!" and the crowd went berserk.

A friend of mine recently reminded me how great this show is and he encouraged me to listen to it again. Wow.

I think alot of it has to do with someone's perspective and what else they listen to. This guy was into 1940s and 1950s blues and R n B. So he liked alot of great music. He got me to listen to Little Walter, who at the time I had not heard before. Little Walter was amazing. Around the same time a younger guy I worked with (who was into 80s alternative rock bands like Eleventh Dream Day etc) listened to a Zep compilation tape I made him and said Plant sounded like someone was strangling a cat. I recall I had put For Your Life as the first track on the cassette because I thought it might appeal to his taste. I had also put Hots On and Wearing and Tearing near the beginning of the mix tape.
