ZepHead315 Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 A couple of very brief snippets of the soundboard for this show have surfaced. See this thread for more info: http://www.royal-orleans.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=46657 Quote
William Austin Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 I think it's safe to say, with Plant basically nailing The Wanton Song here, that this could be one of the best shows of 1975. Sure, it definitely won't be Page's best show ever, but with Wanton, Levee, possibly How Many More Times, and any other surprises that may be in store, in crystal clear sound no less, this would be the epitome of awesome! I'm praying more surfaces soon... Quote
June72 Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Yeah, no question about it, this has quickly become a very interesting grail. Sounds like we're not gonna be hearing it any time soon though, unless anyone has 20,000 bucks lying around. Of course I wouldn't be opposed to crowd funding, 😄 Quote
Walter Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 That was an amazing clip of Wanton Song! So much better than the P/P versions. That show must come out!! Quote
goldenretreiver157 Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 That Wanton Song sounded so close to the studio, Robert's wail was amazing! Cant wait to hear more.. What an exciting week! Quote
Bonzo_fan Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Too bad they dropped it so soon...what's an extra 3-4 minutes when you're playing over three hours every night? 😂 Quote

June72 Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 A few others on Royal Orleans have also supported the idea. If more people both here and over there support it, I'll make sure the word gets around and try to get it off the ground. Quote

Who knows how long it'll be before someone ponies up the dosh. Quote
zeplz71 Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 I heard rumors a while ago this Wanton Song source is incomplete on the soundboard. There might also be an audience source. Quote
drpete Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 The snippet sounds amazing. I wonder what the standard rate is for EV to pay for a board tape. Is 20 grand outrageously high or within the norm? Quote

cosmic_juice Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Whoa! This is great! First Japan 9/28 SB and now a possible new 75 show to wait for... Hope it gets freed! Woohoo! Quote

Anyone willing to chip in is appreciated in my book, and the recording would be made public once it's in our hands (again, as far as I'm concerned. This hasn't quite lifted off yet so the logistics haven't been set in stone.) Quote

kirchzep27 Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 Why would the band have better material out there on bootleg, than they officially release? It does not make sense, they should catch up in the marketing world already. Quote

It does not make sense, they should catch up in the marketing world already. At this point I'm not sure they care all that much unfortunately. They couldn't even be bothered to fix the mess of the TSRTS reissue or to include Tangerine/Communication Breakdown/Thank You on the HTWWW reissue (there wouldn't even be any outside royalty issues there), so a whole new release seems out of the question. At least at this point. Edited February 22, 2020 by 1998giventofly Quote

Bonzo_fan Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 I just realized that if/when the complete tape surfaces, it will be the first post-1970 North American tour opener we have in its entirety! 1971: August 19 Vancouver is missing 1972: June 6 Detroit surfaced last year, but only the second half of the show 1973: May 4 Atlanta is missing 1975: January 18 Minneapolis we now know exists at least 🙌 1977: April 1 Dallas is missing I wonder why so many tour openers are missing 🤔 They can often be interesting, from a setlist experimentation perspective at the very least. Look at the first show of the Stones' '72 tour in Vancouver -- only time they ever played "Ventilator Blues," one of three performances of "Torn And Frayed" (the other two were in 2002) and one of the few times they played "Loving Cup" that year. I realize we probably would have read about it by now in people's accounts of the shows if any of the above Zepp shows had similar rarities, but you never know... Quote

I still can't believe the '77 one is missing. I posted on another thread: The world's biggest band start their first tour for more than 2 years and nobody taped it?!! It must be out there. Quote

Interesting but certainly just a coincidence. Maybe because they were in somewhat oddball places rather that at MSG or the LA Forum etc. Quote

Of which the last 3 are SBD, so, maybe....😉 just maybe... Shows At This Venue: Memorial Auditorium (Dallas) - March 28, 1970 Memorial Auditorium (Dallas) - August 24, 1971 Memorial Auditorium (Dallas) - May 18, 1973 Memorial Auditorium (Dallas) - March 4, 1975 Memorial Auditorium (Dallas) - March 5, 1975 Memorial Auditorium (Dallas) - April 1, 1977 Quote
