DavidZoso Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Trampled Underfoot - I wouldn't call this a mess up-just unique- Bonzo goes from hi-hat to ride for a few secs -where most drummers would have stayed on the hi-hat-even Jason has remarked about this in something I read. This occurs at 5:17 5:22 There is also the false start on Tangerine which I like on Zep 3 but Jimmy took off on the version on the 1990 box set.

Ludwig_Paiste Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Yes this is very blatant in the song, I thought it was put in on purpouse The distant "I can hear it calling me" is very weird indeed. I never read anything about it or why it is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwig_Paiste Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 That only makes it better. If the quirks weren't there, the songs may sound a bit different. I have NO problems on how they stand after all of these years. Now, time to listen to Physical Graffiti! Right on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwig_Paiste Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 There is also the laughing in You Shook Me. So what! Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ywyexv Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 There is also the laughing in You Shook Me. So what! Love it! Yeah.I love this so much though I am not a big blues fan.The laughing is exact at the right moment and supports the great feeling. Wonder why that is not mentioned often.These recordings have alot of natural energy you won´t find this in later productions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ywyexv Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 What do you think about the recordingsounds in generally? The old sounds (Good times bad times) fit much better than the néwer once(In the evening). It not a Zep thing only .Compare:"Honky tonk" woman with newer recordings of the Stones.

Black_Dog_90 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I've always liked this "ghost" voice in "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You". It is weird but I never thought it's a mess-up. Actually I think it's a pretty good effect in a song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just listened to that and noticed it. Strange indeed. A lot of this stuff happens when they record over other tapes and some residual from the original recordings still exists. My guess at least.

JPJ = the groovinator Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Wait.... Don't tell me you guys are mistaking Bonzo talking in the beginning of The Ocean as 'ghost voice'.... Have you watched the DVD?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zepps_apprentice Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 st after the 1:23 mark in the track, someone in the recording studio is heard saying "stop". It is widely believed that it was Page who said it, although this has never been confirmed. As the song has unique rhythm and syncopation, it is assumed that whoever yelled "stop" was trying to act as a verbal conductor. Before that, at about 0:11 in the song, someone (again possibly Page) says "All right". Are you talking about Out On The Tiles? At 1:23 Plant says stop. But I never noticed anything at 0:11.

DewieCox Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Are you talking about Out On The Tiles? At 1:23 Plant says stop. But I never noticed anything at 0:11. Someone says stop several times during the song. Thought I remember reading it was Bonzo to remind everyone of the turnaround of the riff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roxie1981 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 3'43" into 'I'm Gonna Crawl' - beautiful solo but there's some weird thump that goes on at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiMiHeNdRiX1967 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 its very very faint but i do hear the ocean riff before the actual riff comes in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the chase Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 It is John Bonham talking actually and I hear some other noises too which sound like drum beats right before the main riff. It's John Bonham counting off the intro.. "We've done 4 already and now we're steady and then they went.... 1 2 3 4..." BAM! Something like that.. JB also counted The Ocean off like this on the 1973 tour. plus the riff real low.. maybe leaking thru headphones... i've never heard the phone ringing though...

zepps_apprentice Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Whole Lotta Love (studio) You can hear the snares on Bonzo's drums rattle before the drums kick in. Not a mess up but kinda cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 There is a rumor that Bonham groaned during Achiles Last Stand, also you can hear faintly the original orchestra track in Kashmir during the instrumental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireOpal Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Yeah, by the way is he chuckling in the beginning of WLL or was that a cough? I think of it as "The Wheeze" He's laughing I believe. Love all the quirks in LZ's recordings. "I too keep hearing that voice shouting in the background, whenever I listen to "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You"! I do wonder what's the story behind that! I'm very very curious." The famous bleed-throughs on the early records, great stuff. It is pre-echo, caused by print-through from one layer of tape, magnetizing its image onto the next layer. Engineer Eddie Kramer was asked about the bleed-through on WLL: "At one point there was bleed-through of a previously recorded vocal in the recording of 'Whole Lotta Love.' It was the middle part where Robert [Plant] screams 'Wo-man. You need it.' Since we couldn't re-record at that point, I just threw some echo on it to see how it would sound and Jimmy said 'Great! Just leave it.'" JP is such a genius producer; he is a bit underrated in that department IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
