This is an excellent CD of Led Zeppelin's show in Lewisville, Texas (just north of Dallas, Texas) at the Texas International Pop Festival in 1969. This festival had many great artists including Janis Joplin too. There is a documentary video of this event, with part of Led Zeppelin's performance, and it aired on PBSS (I believe) in the early, early 1970's (I think it was 1970). It isn't the best quality due to the generations of the DVDs of it circulating nowadays. But it is very interesting to see the footage and what was going on at the festival too. I may upload it here some day.
I originally got this master reel-to-reel version of the show from the old QualityBootz site (no longer around). It had been put there after the blog's owner downloaded it from Dime it appeared. He'd left the files intact just as he had downloaded them at the time, and since everything has already been done to them (text file, md5 file, ffp file, etc) that I'd ordinarily do, I left everything intact too.

I'm adding a few Texas International Pop Festival mementos (and no, I wasn't there) to this posting that I've found through the years. I think these came from The Hammer of the Gods website. They'll be the images at the bottom of the page.
I've had a number of bootleg label silver CD's and other sources (even an audience source) of this show that I have collected through the years. But in my opinion, this unaltered master reel-to-reel copy is the best.
I hope you enjoy the show...
