Trashbag Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I was just wondering how much better Zeppelin's performance sounded live than the broadcast. JPJ's keyboards were non-existent in the mix and Jimmy's guitar didn't have enough volume or distortion. Did it sound better live? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kashmiran Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I wasn't there, but I've got a bootleg of the original soundboards. JPJ's keyboard's sound great on this. I'm listening to Kashmir right now. Jimmy's guitar does have some violent, distorted noises on Stairway and WLL, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveAJones Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Only the telecast audio feed was abominable. It seemed to me the FM simulcast was fine and everyone there whom I've ever corresponded with has said the live sound was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninelives Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I was there and I have the show on dvd. It's a totally different experience being there because you're caught up in the energy and excitement and in that moment, I heard nothing wrong. I never saw Zep in their day so for me, this was an incredible blessing to have been there. The whole show was pretty special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likecats Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I was there too, and it was indeed special, in spite of a couple of mis-steps in the lyrics. It sounded great to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfman Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 It might have sounded good but Jimmy was pretty terrible that night. Didn't he get drunk off his ass before the show. Why did he have to do HB? Still, I remember the chills of when Phill Collins held up that license plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kashmiran Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I thought Jimmy sounded great. Especially on the Heartbreaker/Whole Lotta Love Medley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
