Oh that's awesome! :ahhh: I can't understand why it's not mentioned here more, I think it outclasses pretty much every other '70 show, even blueberry hill and Montreux!

It's sooooo good

It gets mentioned here, but depending on the context, it might get overlooked sometimes because of the sound quality.

It is definitely in my top 10 or 12 Zeppelin shows that I like to listen to, and I rank it above Blueberry Hill and Montreux '70 in performance. But some people won't accept anything less than soundboard or Mike Millard tape quality and when they ask for bootleg references with great sound, it means shows like 9.19.70 often don't make the cut to some people's ears.

Ah that makes sense, the recording is pretty meh but it's not bad! Pretty well balanced for an audience recording and I can't get over the incredible setlist

Same here...first time I listened to the show, the stretch from the WLL medley to the encores with the Out on the Tiles/Communication Breakdown and The Girl Can't Help It/Twenty Flight Rock combos made my hair stand on end. Simply sizzling!

It should be noted for accuracy, in case any newcomers are reading this, that it is the Evening show of September 19, 1970 that we are referring to, not the early afternoon concert. The band played two concerts at MSG on 9.19.70. Both shows were taped and the afternoon show is good but the evening one is killer. A MUST-HAVE for any Zeppelin collection.

One more thing on that, I have the Born to Please release from years ago, is the newer ones any better?

I have heard a few different versions, usually pretty similar to my ears. Here is a review of the version I own. According to CMR, its as good as definitive.

Here is my progression on this show starting with the first release I acquired to the most recent...they all sound pretty much the same.

Requiem

One More For the Road

The best version of 1970/09/19 is 'One More For the Road 2005 Edition'. It's the lowest generation/best transfer around, better than anything bootleg label has released.

I got that the other day but I also got "Funeral for a friend" and I think that sounds better than the other ones, pretty good on the bass and stuff, a soundboard would be so amazing!

1970/09/19 is not such a bad recording, just a little "distant". Maybe a bit of effort to put on your bootleg ears but the payback is well worth it! It has one of the best setlists of the Fall '70 tour.

I'm listening to Berkeley 1970/09/02 right now! Maybe my favorite from 1970.

Edited to say "Oops! I meant Oakland 1970/09/02"

Oh no not at all, the balance is great, you really hear everything very well, the balance is up there with the Millard tapes, just not as clear otherwise, I don't know if any amount of remastering could fix that which is a shame, such a good show deserves the best audio quality possible

And I have Berkeley already and it's a GREAT show like most 1970 shows, the thing I love about 1970/09/19 is that it's so looong, goes on forever and every second is amazing

I hope BBC sessions, HTWWW and DVD, get more and more people into the early bootlegs! Most of the very known bootlegs of the latter era, have a lot better sound then most of the early ones and even if many latter shows bootlegs, have all the essence of the early ones, some people were missing quite a lot, by not really knowing about the greatness of the early shows, including almost non existent Page sloppiness, chameleonic nature of the early shows, great improvisations, that were especially vigoruos early on and huge energy!

I just picked up a copy of this show....it is my next one to pop in a listen to!

Currently listening to:

No Quarter - May 26, 1973 - Salt Lake City

Same here...first time I listened to the show, the stretch from the WLL medley to the encores with the Out on the Tiles/Communication Breakdown and The Girl Can't Help It/Twenty Flight Rock combos made my hair stand on end. Simply sizzling!
