The Dark Lord Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 In terms of completeness and/or musical enjoyment, so far I've been most impressed by the In the Court of the Crimson King box and The Dark Side of the Moon "Immersion" box set. I'll be more interested, and derive more pleasure, from these boxes because they're Zeppelin, though. I'm still keeping my expectations low, based on my general experience with DE's. If they turn out to be great, then that will be a big plus. From a completist perspective, I must have them all, naturally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the-ocean87 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Pretty ballsy if you ask me, posting a pirate link on the official Zeppelin forum. Just makes it easier for the team to have it taken down, though. :wizard: :wizard: ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markbot Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I'm looking for information pertaining to the vinyl pressing locations for the new remasters. I pre-ordered the super deluxe sets on Amazon.com. If I order the same on amazon.co.uk will I actually get a different pressing? The vinyl pressings for the recent Pink Floyd remasters from the USA and Europe were quite different in packaging and pressing quality. This is why I ask. Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Just makes it easier for the team to have it taken down, though. Can't see why they would care at this point. I mean, the song has already been played on the radio...KLOS's "Get the Led Out" played it Tuesday night...so it's not as if they've revealed a big secret. And anyone who would accept a YouTube clip as a substitute for the real thing ala buying the cd or album is a moron anyway and not worth the trouble of worrying about.

gdog4 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Isn't the YouTube link from the "Official Led Zeppelin" YouTube account? That's where I first saw/heard the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And anyone who would accept a YouTube clip as a substitute for the real thing ala buying the cd or album is a moron anyway and not worth the trouble of worrying about. You obviously don't know how dangerous a site like YouTube can be, then. I (unfortunately) have met such "morons," who would rather download lossy YT audio than pay a dollar for the track on iTunes. Isn't the YouTube link from the "Official Led Zeppelin" YouTube account? That's where I first saw/heard the song. The YT link from the previous page is not -- but I see they've uploaded the full track themselves, so I guess it's a moot point. It was really interesting to hear the Jam Sandwich riff at the end of GTBD/ CB... Sounds an awful lot like "It's Your Thing," to me. I'm still keeping my expectations low, based on my general experience with DE's. If they turn out to be great, then that will be a big plus. From a completist perspective, I must have them all, naturally. Not a bad idea, keeping them low. Makes the good that much better, and the bad (or at least not great) slightly less so.

The Dark Lord Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Sounds an awful lot like "It's Your Thing," to me. Well, that was probably the nick behind the Jam Sandwich riff, but yes, it sounds like both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melcórë Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Well, that was probably the nick behind the Jam Sandwich riff, but yes, it sounds like both. Definitely where Jimmy got the riff -- he'd been including bits of "It's Your Thing" into "Communication Breakdown" since (at least) June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not really sure how different pressing plants, end up with different results, is there not say a THX standard when it comes to vinyl.? I am the sort chap who is taking in that new fresh vinyl smell to bother with the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 The smell is intoxicating, Cecil. This will be the first vinyl I will have purchased since the 80's and I don't currently have a working turntable. All the more reason to get the old one working again...

steelersfan1968 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 How many unheard of tracks do they really have. I'm starting to think. That we are going to get the same tracks from the album on the bonus disk. I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTM Posted April 19, 2014 Author Share Posted April 19, 2014 ^^^^ That's right, when the remasters of the Fourth and HOTH are released this coming October the bonus discs will only have alternate versions of the tracks on the original albums. No live stuff. A bit of a downer for those hoping for a live show or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For My Life Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I continue to hope and pray that we get No Quarter live from Earls Court 24th May 1975 on the HOTH or PG set. What possible justification can than there be for this masterpiece failing to see the light of day in all its multi-tracked glory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I'm concerned, the single greatest performance of NQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
