Sticks of Fire Posted November 4 (edited) 1 hour ago, TheStairwayRemainsTheSame said: Why do the AUD bootlegs randomly get cut into recordings from the console, Essen, Vienna both examples of this happening for the same songs. Again, the copies we have were made this way: Jimmy has the entire soundboard and then upon listening to them in the late 1980s he made himself a copy of the parts he liked the most. Maybe for new ideas for himself. What we have are simply those edited down copies. Not the full master copy (which is complete).

jsj Posted November 4 Because soundboard recordings are mostly better than audience recordings. So if a bootlegger has an audience tape of a gig but there are sections available from soundboard it's better to edit them in, particularly if the audience tape isn't great the soundboard recordings could be from the stash of tapes stolen from Page long ago. Bands sometimes record gigs to playback to themselves to check how the shows are sounding. And in Zeppelins case it seems the jam sections of songs are what Page was listening to, maybe to develop and refine cues to progress from one section to another and to see what motifs and licks work best Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why in each of those EU shows does it meticulously only provide the SBD source for the major medleys.7 Playback and listen yes maybe so but it happened and is odd.

Going by the March 1973 soundboards; it appears for every one we have; they contain what would have been on Tape #2 containing the last part of the concerts. IE, whoever stole these from Jimmy didn’t get the first reel of each concert. Do we know 100% for sure; maybe not. But with the evidence it’s a pretty sure bet. Why would they purposely tell the sound man; “Don’t record the full show, only record two parts...”. Doesn’t make sense. It would be a pain in the ass. They simply set up the tapes and hit record, and flipped them/added a new one when they ran out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are being a misogynist and that is simply ignorant and unacceptable. Maybe they were very nice ladies? Maybe they were not ladies? Maybe the tapes were never stolen and Jimmy simply lost them while on a bender. Either way, knock it off with the generalizations. How would you like it if you were referred to as "some INCEL dude?"

gibsonfan159 Posted November 8 Ok, I was skeptical about this being a far-fetched load of bologna but I just took samples of both shows, set the tempo the same just to be sure, panned each sample to one side and played them simultaneously and I didn't actually do any of that because these are two different shows and it's far-fetched bologna.
