johnlennon696 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Please be something live. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reids Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 (edited) Unless it’s a single or an EP possibly for record store day in April, 2018. R😎 Edited October 26, 2017 by reids Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RockDude4492 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I am very much hoping it’s live. Any guesses as to what it could be? If the picture is any indication, maybe we’d be getting something from ‘75 (Earl’s Court?). If not, maybe a remastered How the West Was Won? I’m dying to know now, more Zeppelin in any capacity can only be a good thing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuperStatic Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I assume its not a re-master of anything since he said 'Mastering' Led Zeppelin. Not really sure what it could be honestly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reids Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Hopefully something that hasn’t been already officially released. My guess is Earls Court. We’ll see. R😎 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

morningson Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Earls Court Live 1975 maybe? A compilation of the best bits of the entire run? Personally, I'm hoping of a new DVD with rare, live, remastered concert and interview footage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As to the picture in question in this thread, I'm going to assume this an encore picture, where security lightens up and allows the fans to crowd the stage in front of those with the front row seats. IF, John is only mastering that one show, then that would mean no D&C from 1975, which I particularly like. But, perhaps he's mastering a Best Of from 1975... ??

IpMan Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 (edited) Logic would dictate if it is from 75' it would have to be a best of Earls Court. The complete concert made up of the best songs over the five nights as, to my knowledge, these were the only professionally recorded gigs of the tour. Another, possibly stronger possibility would be a best of 79' with the majority coming from Aug 4th Knebworth with patches (or whole songs) from the July 24th Copenhagen gig plus that amazing, over the top Communication Breakdown from the 11th.

Mook Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I wouldn't read too much into the photo. My hope is that it's the live 'greatest hits' we've all been hoping for, I have my doubts though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rm2551 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I actually hope its not a "greatest hits". More an Earls Court or other specific event or live run that is mastered and released as a celebration of that specific run or tour, and also as a 'lets test the waters' for further releases. 2018 - the year of Led Zeppelin! Surely there MUST be enough live stuff in the vaults to warrant a series of releases. THAT - is my hope. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed RE the photo - I think people are getting too hung up on it when it's probably something John just grabbed from Google Images. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He done exactly the same thing in 2014 with the remasters so Page would've probably jibbed him off then & never worked with him again if he was upset about it. It's likely a planned method of building up the hype, it's certainly worked on here anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cookie0024 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I don't buy the "he intentionally posted it and then deleted it" conspiracy theory. He was just sharing his day and didn't think people would spot it. Led Zeppelin doesn't need to do viral marketing for upcoming releases. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blindwillie127 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 The potential for some good shit here is very high. My anxiety level is already in the red. Bring it!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ZepHead315 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 This is some exciting news for sure! I'm going to try my best to contain my enthusiasm until we get more info, but I'm already wondering what it'll be. Like others here, I'm thinking/hoping it'll be something live. Regardless of what it is, I can't wait! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuperStatic Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 I would guess its unreleased live material of some sort since its been stated that pretty much everything recorded in the studio has been re-mastered and released already. Look forward to finding out either way! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bozoso73 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Most of us have a collection of live stuff. . If anything I hope its not early 75 as Percy got sick and the shows are below par at that time. I can hope hope the 3 shows of EC that are sub par recordings can be polished or JP has multi track or something but even EC was underwhelming. . I really dont want a best of live but whole shows. . bum notes and all. . shows or recordings not already on the "market" . . my 2 cents:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
