ZepHead315 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Blimp_Life just tweeted this out earlier today: Here's a translation: "A rough day of two days in a row called Nishi ShinjukuInside the BF store, “Trambled Underfoot”, a new-sounding board sound source, was flowing. It was like it wasn't Romby's second day ... (No confirmation" In a reply to someone asking whether it was a 1977 or 1975 show, Blimp_Life said "1975, probably". If this is indeed true, my educated guess is that it's either San Diego 3/10 or Houston 2/27 based on the pattern of releases so far. One of the LA shows is a possibility as well. Of course, I'd be over the moon if this were Long Beach 3/12, Philadelphia 2/8, or one of the January shows. Can't wait to find out what it is!

SteveZ98 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Are they going to dribble the songs out like they did with 9/29/71? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere near the level of demand for a 75 or 77 show in contrast to Osaka 71. The singles just wouldn’t sell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonzo_fan Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Great news indeed! If it's '75, I'd rank the board-less shows of the second leg as far as desirability as follows: 1. 3/12 Long Beach -- All-time great show, so it's #1. The recently-surfaced third source makes getting the board less urgent, but still a tantalizing possibility--could be a great matrix! 2. 2/27 Houston -- Obviously a previously-unheard show is very desirable, but it's also presumably the debut of the grand piano in "No Quarter"! If Bonham is on fire like he is in Baton Rouge and the Dallas-Ft.Worth shows, this one should be a treat! 3. 3/27 Los Angeles -- One of my personal favourites, and hopefully the tape changes on the board would be in different spots than those of Millard's recording so that we'd have "The Rain Song," "No Quarter," and "Dazed And Confused" complete. Would make a fantastic matrix. 4. 3/25 Los Angeles -- Tough call between this and 3/10, but the 'Dazed' from this show alone gives it the edge for me. 5. 3/10 San Diego -- ^ 6. 3/24 Los Angeles -- This one always feels dull to me--maybe it's just a letdown being the one right after 3/21... As far as the first leg goes, it's a very tough call between 1/18 Minneapolis for curiosity's sake and 2/8 Philadelphia for a known fantastic show--I'll call it a tie. After that, any of the Chicago shows would be good because of the setlist. Anything between Chicago and Philly is considerably less desirable in my opinion. If it's '77, it can't be my top choice (6/22) or 6/13 since "Trampled Under Foot" wasn't played at either of those, and isn't claimed to have been played at 5/31 Greensboro, which is another at the top of my '77 list. Could be 4/28 or 4/30 though, or conceivably 5/19 Baton Rouge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porgie66 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I'm hoping it's one of the early 75 shows, maybe Bloomington Minnesota or Chicago. I like to hear that's adlist in soundboard quality and I have a feeling that's been in the works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTM Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 75/77 disappointing, (for me). Give me anything 69 to 73 over those years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no, if it is going to be a January 75 SB, things will be completely different. Due to Mr. Plant´s outstanding vocal artistry the new SB will not only sell for just half of the usual price, furthermore, buyers will be rewarded with an additional SB (of their choice) for free. Those lucky devils who are able to send in their original ticket stub of any January 75 date, will be provided with 3 additional SBs- a kind of late compensation...........

Why you prefer '75? Personally, I am bored after 4 years of '75 releases. A soundboard recording of Pontiac, Birmingham, Cleveland, NY or L.A. '77 seems less important to you? I am just asking of curiosity, because I am surprised by the fact that so many people keep trashing the '77 tour, especialy when most of the '75 tour is plagued by Plant's shot voice.

I agree I’d definitely rather have a 77 show due to just how good Plants voice was and how good Jimmy could recapture his magic on certain nights such as the LA New York run and the last two shows of the first leg of 77 at Cleveland 4/28 and Pontiac 4/30, just my opinion.

And as others say, there are some brilliant '77 gigs not yet out there. Personally, I'll be happy either way. A great new live show you say??? YAY!

tom kid Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I'm hoping for a SBD of both Cincinnati shows from '77 tbh, that version of NQ from the 19th is maybe the best ever. The outro solo absolutely smokes in particular; not to mention Lady Madonna! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some find the '75 setlist somewhat boring, but I don't. I enjoy a '77 show as much as the next fan, but there are niggles: setlist is a bit bloated, the pace can be sluggish (some performances of Kashmir are downright pedestrian), and we all know about Jimmy's less than precise playing on that tour. Probably the deciding factor for me is that '75 soundboards uniformly sound better (at least to me) than '77 soundboards, and I have wondered about that. Different system in '77? I'll take whatever it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These last 2 versions are not bad, but they are plagued by mistakes. So we have 4 "bad" '77 performances of kashmir, out of 44. The numbers are not lying. Plus '77 was the best year for this song, thanks to the double black mellotron, the Danelectro guitar and Plant's improved voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If clarification is needed, I should have said mundane performances....sluggish. Uninspired. Was 6-23 one where they got lost in Kashmir? It can be hypnotic. But the same (sluggish) can't be said of Achilles. Always a highlight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A user on Royal Orleans said they went to the store where the song was playing. He asked the person working there if they had any additional info and they said they didn't. Only that they thought it was from 1975. No idea as to when it will be released. Looks like we're still back at square one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
