Sue Dounim Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Even with how brickwalled it is, this is the only 75 version of The Rain Song I've heard where the mellotron doesn't bleed the ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie0024 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I'm going to put together a high-res version of the box cover so people can use it in iTunes. If anybody has a decent resolution photo of the front that I can use to grab the stickers and text, that would be cool. If not, I'll match the font the best I can.

Sue Dounim Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Since the watermark isn't touching any of the stickers, this is acceptable, right?

Yeah, when bootlegs like this come out usually there's just rubbishy packaging shots for months until someone comes along and fixes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lololabrute Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 very surprised at the amount of negativity re this show - enough with the pouting people. Appreciate that we have so many soundboards to enjoy for our favorite band. How can we expect better quality. I'm sure EV is doing their best to give us their best. Not simply money hungry people, but fans as well. Am I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Listening to Rock and Roll now. Robert's really hoarse. I also hear some distortion, but it's not ear degrading. lololabrute, is rereleasing a show multiple times (like the "deluxe edition" of this show, releasing 2/14 with 2/13) mean that they're not money hungry? And the release of new soundboards at ridiculous prices? I don't disagree with what you're saying, but I'm just pointing that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattmc1973 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I'm sure acquiring these soundboards to release them isn't free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilsoncb420 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 i think this release gave us the best overall performance from Page and Plant that we have on sbd yet from 1975! I can't believe that this show, 2/13, kicks major ass, when 2/12 and 2/14 are average/mediocre 75 shows to me. Like I said, the performance is what makes this shine. And the quality is better than I first thought. I guess headphones really exaggerate quality flaws. Highlights: -Sick Again through Kashmir just blow me away (ooh my ears man) -No Quarter is probably my favorite 75 version of this song. The ENDING/Dogs of Doom part is SO HEAVY and Jones' use of the lower octave bass pedals adds heaviness. -Trampled is good -Stairway, and the Encores aren't the usual slop fests (even though I enjoy all LZ performances very much), and Black Dog is good Not that impressed with Dazed and Communication Breakdown, but I am surprised how well Zep held it together 'til the end. And its really cool hearing Pagey walk circles around Ron Wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilsoncb420 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I've always wondered HOW much? I wouldn't even begin to know where to start if I wanted to buy one personally, but I imagine it is a lot. C'mon, can't be THAT much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilsoncb420 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 thats the released sbd. how much does "EVSD" pay for the raw tape before they try to sell it? THAT is what I have always wondered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe that this show, 2/13, kicks major ass, when 2/12 and 2/14 are average/mediocre 75 shows to me. No kidding? I would put this show in the middle of the pack of soundboards for '75. 2-12 and 2-14 are exceptional, and 3-11 is right there with them. Probably 3-5, too.

gstritzi Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 2-28 Rampaging Cajun is better than all above yet it's all opinions of us Zep fan's let's just enjoy these show's sbds as we are lucky to get them and wait for the next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glyn Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 The $10,000 figure is constantly thrown around when talking about privately acquiring soundboards. I doubt EVSD pays that much...but maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I would put that show in the first tier. Really, I only find 3-14 and 3-17 a little lackluster as far as U.S. '75 soundboards go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilsoncb420 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 interesting to see how opinions differ! i would put my favorite shows, with a good solid performance from beginning to finish: Favorite: 2/13/75 2nd: 3/20/75 3rd: 3/19/75 (even though I rather have No Quarter solos slower, the Vancouver shows kick ass to me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nutrocker Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 How can we expect better quality. I'm sure EV is doing their best to give us their best. Not simply money hungry people When fans who get the EVSD version via download find it necessary to remaster the thing before they're even finished listening to it because the EVSD mastering is so loud (i.e. 'brickwalled') I don't think I'd say EVSD is 'doing their best' or giving us the best quality. I'm sorry, but they're not. When the bootleg company charges extortionate amounts for their product yet don't seem to give a ratfuck about the goddamn sound quality, that's a problem. If I'd spent $150 or whatever on this, I'd be pissed, Amduscia is infinitely more forgiving than I am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
