Authentik Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) This remastered take is stellar. You can hear the wood of Jimmy’s Les Paul rosewood neck. Bonzo’s groove is eloquent. JPJ’s organ is prodigious. I listen to this cut 5 times every day. The solo….man the solo. On this remix, you can hear every nuance, the album versions sound poor. Imo, the greatest lead, ever, by anyone. Albeit, not for the novice ear. Edited September 19, 2022 by Authentik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibsonfan159 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I'll check this out later. 👍 Even still, this is probably my favorite version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Authentik Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 If you have a decent headphones or stereo, I hear great clarity. I’m curious as to how this was made. Just Eq’d or stem remix, or whatever. Its very clear compared to the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Smith Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 When that descending guitar lick kicks in it's goosebumps every time. Nice post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozoso73 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I'm the guy who doesn't listen to anything from this reissue from 07. . I bought the original and after JP got a hold of it, it doesn't resonate to me like the record does from 1976. . While it is still amazing, they butchered the recording and I only gave it one listen. . Old habits die hard. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Authentik Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 I hear ya but the point here is the re EQ making the nuances all able to be heard. It brings it alive. listen at 6:10. I love listening to Bonzo’s drums as the solo prepares to begin. so tasteful. the mastered album version sounds like dogs ass, this one moves me. sonically. I listen to it daily. its about the mix, not the take. ty!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Authentik Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 whoever did this rainson zeppelin posted a couple different versions reEq’d on youtube years ago. I think these were never on tape? lmk if wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john morrison Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 i bought this the day it was released . agree '76 version sounds as good if not better than subsequent remasters / whatever . no quarter is as good as it gets for me . ever so slightly ahead of dased . am lucky enough to have the cut by classic records . my goodness is it ever good . it is to my ears better than the original '76 .

Blaize86 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 It’s a tragedy ..a sin..that Jimmy and the director or directors should I say did not leave in the concert footage of this wonderful passage. I wonder what Jimmy thinks sometimes. On the re issue he edited this beautiful solo and removed the entire buildup. Again..I wonder what he thinks. He needs to release this whole concert ..all three shows mixed ..with no fantasy sequences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
