Led zeppelin: 1971-08-31 Orlando, FL (FLAC_SB/AUD_2 CD)

To me, it's a toss-up between this Empress Valley Supreme Disc (EVSD) version and the Genuine Masters (GM) version of this show as to which is the best.  Both are really excellent recordings; each having their own strong points as well.

I'm uploading the EVSD version today for two reasons.  First, I like the high end audio on this version.  And secondly, I finally got a copy of this version yesterday that hasn't been "fan remastered" version or a version messed with since EVSD put it out years ago.  I have a fan remastered version of this exact label's recording I got a few years ago, but the great high end audio was muffled and it doesn't sound near as good as what the person doing the remastering started their project with (the EVSD release).

I really like this show and the band's performance in it!  They really rock and Page's guitar playing is incredible sounding in this recording.  I'll eventually upload the GM version I'm sure.  GM always does an excellent job on their releases, and what I really want to find to upload is their DVD-A of this show.  But still, and to my ears, this EVSD version is a tie for the best source for this show.

There is one thing I'm sure I've researched before but cannot recall what I found out at the moment.  The artwork shows this as a 4 CD set.  I'm guessing EVSD released this show in two different alterations, but I cannot recall for sure?  I went ahead and did some research (again) but all I could find out is the 4 CD set dates are both still 1971-08-31.  Maybe two of the CD's are the audience recording of the show and the other two CD's are the soundboard and audience mix.  I've only got the Lemon Song label version of the audience recording at this time and it ends with the song "Moby Dick".  So without a better desription or possibly more artwork for the other two CD's, I'm still at a loss.  One last guess is that the 4 CD set is titled "Florida Sunshine" and the 2003 2 CD release and/or its reissue (this upload) is titled "Orlando Magic".  Labels have the tendency to put out box sets with one title and individual releases of what's in the box set with different titles.  And that likely is what happened here.

I hope you enjoy the show...
