Listening to this show right now for the first time in a while...apart from Robert's voice, which is rough at the beginning but gets better (he lets out a great scream in The Rain Song), a fantastic show in a great recording...is this one of Freezer's tapes?

Yes, it's a Freezer recording, and probably his most controversial, he says that he's never circulated the masters, and the version we have is a 12th gen cassette recording, yet again he claims that trader's claim to circulate the masters.

A really long, sad history of what bootlegging and back-stabbing among circles is all about...

I vote for his 1977.05.19 Baton Rouge tape for most controversial. There is 1 other he has, and I think it is from 1971.

Agreed...I'd love to hear his '77 show...I have heard he also has the Who's show from Baton Rouge in 1975...would love to hear that as well, as it's never been circulated...

:P ....were you trying to link to one of the epic Freezer/Zeppelin threads over at the Den, 3 Hours? The "Where Do The New Sources...", "Freezer's Revenge" and "Latest News From Japan" discussions (for wont of a better term) are essential reading for Zep collectors IMO...

This is a great show. One of the earliest (if not the first) versions of No Quarter to feature Jonesy on the grand piano as well as the electric piano. Killer version.

Yep. A really great atmosphere on the recording as well...Mid-Feb through the end of the US tour was really good in 1975...I know a lot of people slag '75 but I quite like it!

What is Freezer's real name - does anybody know?

im listening to pieces from this show and i gotta say this is going to be one of my top 3 audience recordings. Right off the bat i gotta say i like the sound better than listen to this eddie because the drums are so much more prominent. I have to be able to hear bonham clearly and it is so awesomely captured on this show.
