Derek Trucks Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 So what exists of Southampton 73 in the fans hands now? Im wondering if there is a soundboard out or fan-recorded audio, etc. Any help would be appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3hrsoflunacy Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 For the Southampton 1973.01.22 date, there is a fragment of the soundcheck soundboard as well as a multi-track soundboard recording of the show in circulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im wondering if there is a soundboard out or fan-recorded audio, etc. Any help would be appreciated! The multi-tracks are excellent. Note the developing "San Francisco" section of Dazed and Confused.

reids Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Yes. Great show, indeed. There were two shows in Southampton This one, at the University, they performed on a small area with a cool rug on the wooden stage. The college crowd were very animated (according to the audio and pictures). A cool black and white picture is in The Complete Led Zeppelin Concert File. Jonesy has a unique multi-colored vest on.

pinky Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) A soundboard boot does exist (I own it) it has either the second or third best sound of any Led Zeppelin boot the only ones that come close are Flying Circus(the best) or Texas Pop Festival. The performance is great too. Edited July 15, 2008 by pinky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiri Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Really great sound! Have you noticed Jimmy´s strange guitar sound? It almost sounds as "clean" and harmless as on the BBC-session! Not a bit like standard 1973. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapper Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Really great sound! Have you noticed Jimmy´s strange guitar sound? It almost sounds as "clean" and harmless as on the BBC-session! Not a bit like standard 1973. This is true. Not only is it "clean" but also very 'dry'. With a little bit of production work the guitar sound could be vastly improved. As a matter of fact, the recording as a whole could be vastly improved if it were to be given the attention that Kevin Shirley has to every Zep project he's done. I guess Page doesn't consider this to be a great show and not worth the effort, otherwise I would think that since it's one of the few multi-trk recordings from this tour it would have been given alot of time and effort to make it sound as good as possible.

Page said when he was searching for new material to put out (eventually HTWWW/DVD) that he looked at this show, but decided not to release it because it is so similar to TSRTS. He felt that the fans would prefer something different and I agree with him - I would much prefer HTWWW over a Southampton show (if I had to choose).

zep4ever Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 One of the best recent bootleg discoveries - very good recording and a rare playing of HMMT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fsmith9095 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I wonder if there's more of the rehearsal/soundcheck in someone's vault. I'd love to hear more of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docron Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 One of the best recent bootleg discoveries - very good recording and a rare playing of HMMT. Rare?! They played it in nearly every show from 1968-1970... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killing Floor Blues Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Rare?! They played it in nearly every show from 1968-1970... Mabey he means rare for the time period. By 73, they hadn't played HMMT as a regular number in a couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
