Seattle '73

Recommended Posts

Who has heard this new one? Could be good. Here's one comment:

This shit sounds waaaayyyy better than the old Vinyl, the remastered Vinyl,

the other audience source, the soundboard source, the alternate soundboard

source and the soundboard+audience Winston matrix.

Get this, this sounds like a 73' Millard tape.

Can't wait for other recordings from this collection, here's hoping all of

Dave's tapes sound remotely as good as this.

Notes:

JEMS is proud to be able to partner with and present some of the choice

recordings in the D & D archives. Some of these recordings have been around

for years but none of the master tapes or safety copies in some cases have

ever been digitized until now. Dave and Donn taped many shows in and around

the Seattle area in the 70's and also were contemporaries of some of the

JEMS members. Volume 1 consists of Led Zeppelin's stop in Seattle in 1973.

This recording is the source for the original V 1/2 Led Zeppelin Performed

Live in Seattle on Highway HiFi Collector's Edition Records (HHCER) and

later variations on the V 1/2 title released on other vinyl bootlegs. This

is the very first time any copies of this recording have been made outside

of the press plates for the original vinyl pressing and/or internal copies

Dave and Donn may have made for each other. Unfortunately one of the masters

was completely erased over to be reused to tape other shows so Stairway To

Heaven and Whole Lotta Love are pieced in from a transfer off of Dave's

original vinyl. This is an excellent sounding recording and one of the best

audience recordings in general available for any Zeppelin show from the 73

U.S. tour. The recording is missing part of the show(Dazed And Confused,

Moby Dick) but this is the first time Heartbreaker has been made available

from this show. The recording has been mastered for sonic perfection along

with the vinyl portion being cleaned up of surface noise and such.

I want to check it out! Seattle 73' was one of the first bootlegs I acquired along with Cleveland 77' (Destroyer). Even though it was an audience recording (Seattle 73') I always loved it. I have to hear this new one.

IMO, It's better than any Millard recording, it's sooo clear and upfront, it's one THE best AUD Zep tapes for sure, transerred majesticly, a brilliant recording of a already brilliant gig, just listening to No Quarter now, magic..
