Bbagm Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 (edited) Hi, just a quick question. Could someone tell me please what the source is for this bootleg of "The Song Remains The Same"? I can't find any information about it anywhere online. Thanks. https://www.discogs.com/release/7509264-Led-Zeppelin-The-Song-Remains-The-Same Edited January 18 by Bbagm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeplz71 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Probably the audio from the film which had Black Dog and Since I've Been Loving You. These were not available on cd at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbagm Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 Hi, thanks for the reply. So I guess it's probably transferred from video (or maybe lazerdisc given the Japanese love of all things technological!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 When "The Song Remains the Same" became available on home video in the 1980s, I took a blank Maxell 120 minute cassette and Frankensteined a complete (or as complete as was officially available at that time) "The Song Remains the Same" soundtrack for myself. For side A of the cassette, I first recorded from my video of "The Song Remains the Same": 1. Bron-Yr-Aur/Crowd noise right up until Bonham's exclamation. Hitting pause, I then switched sources to my clean 1976 "The Song Remains the Same" original soundtrack album: 2. Rock and Roll 3. Celebration Day Hitting pause, I switched sources from the vinyl and back to my video of "The Song Remains the Same" and recorded: 4. Bring It On Home Intro/Black Dog 5. Since I've Been Loving You Then, it was back to Side 1 of the vinyl for: 6. The Song Remains the Same 7. Rain Song Flip to side 2 for: 8. Dazed and Confused That took up all of side A of the cassette. Side B of the cassette was Sides 3 and 4 of the album: 1. No Quarter 2. Stairway To Heaven 3. Moby Dick 4. Whole Lotta Love "Heartbreaker" was just too damn choppy and incomplete to try to record on cassette, but since I had about 11 or so minutes of tape left, I switched back to the video and added the studio version of "Stairway To Heaven" that runs over the closing credits and the hurdy gurdy tune that Jimmy Page plays by the lake. This tape did not survive the 80s. 120 minute cassettes were notoriously fickle and susceptible to damage and getting eaten by cassette players. But it was fun while it lasted.
