    It's one of the pressings of the original Blueberry Hill issued by Blimp at the end of 1970. It pre-dating latter issues by the TMoQ and other labels so you're holding original, first issue. There were also colored vinyl pressings but they're all from the same plates and were released at the same time. Those matrix nos. are different on each of every single press so it's difficult to say from which part/run it has been taken. For sure it's a very early issue. Photos of the artwork and labels could only help to determine more details.

    Thank you! So happy about this, i will post some pics of  them soon

  2. I wanted to identify the version of blueberry hill i have. It has the standard art and no information at all but What was carved on the black wax: 

    Matrix / Runout Runout side A, etched: EV 666-A1 70-401-F

    Matrix / Runout Runout side B, etched: EV 666-B2 70-402-F

    Matrix / Runout Runout side C, etched: EV 664-A3 70-399-F

    Matrix / Runout Runout side D, etched: EV 664-B4 70-400-F

    in discogs this shows several TMOQ releases and one ‘mushroom records’ release. Could this be a unmarked TMOQ vinyl. I am very confused

    That doesn't look like a G to me, look at the G in Grant just bellow. A scratch does not make a C a G.

    Its not a scratch, its a printing error. My friends refer to it as the "ogean cassette" I know its not a G, just used to calling it that.

  4. The ‘OGEAN’ is just a printer error , which makes it one of a kind.  The LZ1 i thought was of interest, as i have never found a miscut album like that. Just some minor errors i found from years of collecting

  5. Would be interested to see if anyone has their hands on any misprint vinyl/cassette. I am not talking about the more common ones like ‘misty mountain top’ or ‘living loving wreck’ i mean real obscure oddities. For examplw i have a 77’ cassette of HOTH that lists the ocean as ‘THE OGEAN’ and i have a very off center LZ1 in which you can barely see the Atlantic label at the bottom. I will post these later under this topic.

  6. It mostly sounds better as an audience recording. The whole song is incredible live, but I think the solo was meant more for studio recording because it seems he plays it too fast or doesnt get the right tone. Some beautiful versions i found (partially thanks to your suggestions) are:

    4/28/77

    4/30/77

    3/21/75

    3/12/75

    3/19/75

    In terms of pure performance, here would be my top 10, in chronological order:

    Boston 1/26/69

    New York 9/19/70 (evening show)

    Belfast 3/5/71

    Osaka 9/28/71

    Seattle 6/19/72

    Offenburg 3/24/73

    Los Angeles 6/3/73

    Seattle 3/21/75

    Los Angeles 6/22/77

    Copenhagen 7/24/79

    I agree with others that Strider's list is a good jumping off point if you're just starting to get into bootlegs. All of the shows he's listed have a good mix of sound quality and performance.

    Thats very similar to what i would say, glad you included belfast, an amazing show especially for plant

  8. This has been discussed before many times, but they are all over the place, id like a nice updated top 10 list of bootlegs from any time based mostly on performance from ththe entire band, must include good plant shows. This would be a difficult task but id just like to hear what everyone has to say
