tmtomh Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Indeed - a fantastic show and arguably one of their very best post-'73 shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 They had great moments at Knebworth and the 1980 tour but this is the last great start-to-finish concert of their career. Even casual or non-fans don't complain about this one when you play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider myself a die hard Zep fan and collector and after your post I realized I did not have either the 23rd or the 24th show. Now I do and i am listening and LOVING them! Cheers my friend and Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night_flight3030 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 hopefully if there is ever an official release of chronological live album from 69-79 this show definitely should be selected. Kinda to bad this 50th anniversary was a bust. Not interested in Zeppelin picture book or Zeppelin skateboards or vans Zeppelin shoes.

The Only Way To Fly Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Wasn't there an announcement about streaming? What a let down the whole thing has been. Sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The optimistic me says they are cleaning up a variety of concerts in prep for streaming and it's taking time. Strange they announce streaming with no follow up info/Announcements for so long. The realistic me considers the almost non existent 50th content of real interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmic_Equilibrium Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 The Pseudonym remaster is the one to go for as far as this show is concerned. I must admit that I have never really given this show much of a chance as IMO the recording just sounds far too thin and tinny. There is just no bass or power to it. I genuinely can't understand why people acclaim it as one of the best audience recordings ever, to my ears it's really lacking for the reasons I just gave. However the Pseudonym remaster does go some way towards giving it more weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 24th is definitely the better performance, but the 23rd is an all-time great recording sound-wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecongo Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 No offense to Pseudonym but I thought that remaster made it sound artificial and squeezed too much the 23rd is a nice Aud recording for sure, but the 24th is SUCH a better show, and my dream is that a SB will surface some day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobDobbs Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 IMO the Achilles Last Stand on 7-24-79 is the most technically perfect version played live and the one closest to the album. Jimmy even throws in some lines he never used before which works very well to fill in the sound. Also want to point out Jimmy's tone during these show's is much more reminiscent of 73'. He still uses the super-clean tone at times but in this case his playing is up to the task so it sounds good but, IMO I am not a fan of the super clean tone he used especially in 75'. I prefer the fatter, fuller, raunchier tone of 73'. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It puts a serious dent in the appeal of the music that year along with croaky Plant and over relaxed Bonzo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
