Led Zeppelin: 1973-03-26 Lyon, France (FLAC_AUD 1st Gen_3 CD)

Today is the 42nd anniversary of this recently surfaced Led Zeppelin recording.  Parts of the show have been around for a while, but the almost complete recording just surfaced two years ago today and was uncirculated prior to that.

In past years, part of "Dazed and Confused", "Whole Lotta Love", and "Heartbreaker" was all we had.  And I believe it came from a completely different source too.  The sound in the partial, short audio of the show we had prior to two years ago is a different sounding audio altogether.

Unfortunately, this show is incomplete and it only sounds good in my rating opinion too.  I mentioned this in the Denver 1970 post I last made as well as past posts.  If you are interested in seeing how I define the sound and overall quality of a show, then look at the sticky note link above the band names as you scroll down and look on the right side of the site.  It can be found here: STICKY NOTE - CONTACT ME & USEFUL INFO FOR SITE.

This more complete recording is a 3 CD copy of the show even though it is not the complete show.  It seems "Rock and Roll" was not saved or recorded as one example.  This almost fits on 2 CD-R's, and time-wise, it is under 2 CD in length.  But there is no way to get the full recording onto two discs due to the song lengths making one disc just over 81 minutes and the other disc just over 83 minutes when you try burning it to two discs.  And of course, CD-R's can only hold 80 minutes unless you over-burn a disc and that is not usually recommended (and in my case doesn't seem to work when I've tried in the past).  "Dazed and Confused" is really the song that the change in discs would be at and there was no way it could fit on either CD 1 or CD 2 without running over 80 minutes.  So I put "Dazed and Confused", which runs just over 30 minutes in length, on CD 2 by itself and everything prior to that is on CD 1 as well as everything post that song is on CD 3.

There is an interesting difference in this show too not heard in any other 1973 shows I can recall.  As part of the "Whole Lotta Love" medley, the band plays an almost 10 minute "I Can't Quit You Baby" with "The Lemon Song" in the mid section of the song.  Unlike most shows, where just a small fragment of a song is added in the medley, they play the two songs at length.

The original sharing party I got the show from two years ago had the "Whole Lotta Love" medley's audio broken up into three tracks.  And I left it that same way since "I Can't Quit You Baby" and "The Lemon Song" are so long in this show.

Thanks goes to "unclemeat" for sharing this uncirculated copy of the concert with us two years ago!

I hope you enjoy the show...
