Led Zeppelin: 1975-02-28 Baton Rouge, LA (FLAC_SB_3 CD)

I was listening to this excellent show yesterday and then I realized it was 38 years ago today this concert was held in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.  That helped me decide what to upload to my blog today :-)

This is a superb sounding show.  It has the right mix and instruments, vocals, etc all seemed balanced very well.  About half way through "The Song Remains The Same", the sound changes a little making it just right for the rest of the show.  This could have been an official release had Led Zeppelin ever wanted to officially release it.

A special thanks goes out to "Amduscia" over at Royal Orleans for making this show available.  This is definitely one of the best sounding 1975 tour Led Zeppelin shows.  There are a number of them out there, but this is definitely one more of them.

By the way, I wonder why they did not call this EVSD release "Raging Cajun"?  That makes more of a rhyming sense to me :-)

I hope you enjoy this show from a few hours of history that occurred 35 years ago tonight.

Heart: 1982-05-28 Dortmund, Germany (Pro Shot DVD)

Here is a great Heart concert aired on the German TV program "RockPop" in 1982.  Heart must have been playing a German rock festival or something similar when this show was recorded.  I say this because I have a Joan Jett And The Blackhearts DVD from this same venue, on the same date, and aired on the same German TV program too.  I wonder if there might be any other good bands that might have played and were recorded too?

Led Zeppelin: 2013-01-04 Charlie Rose Interview

Here is a good interview of Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, and John  Paul Jones from 10 days ago.  I like this interview because they talk about things we (collectors) talk about.  And Charlie Rose actually asked great questions instead of those generic, water down, useless questions most media people interviewing them ask.  And they refer to "the bootlegs" too :-)

Enjoy...

Boston: 1979-02-06 Fort Worth, TX (FLAC_AUD_2 CD)

This is a super rare Boston show with very, very low circulation.  I got this is a trade about 15 years ago, and if memory serves me correctly (no guarantee it does), it came from the trader's master recording.  Either way, in all of my years of trading and collecting live and rare music, I've never once seen this anywhere.  I even did an internet search looking for this recording being mentioned anywhere today.  I found nothing on it.  I did find a number of sites referencing the show and date at the Tarrant County Convention Center.  But I couldn't find anything on this recording or any recording of this show.

The trader also sent me about 25 to 35 pictures from the concert.  I don't believe he took them however.  I'm sure he was busy recording the show.  I have looked high and low for where I have these pictures stored but have not found them yet.  I have a feeling (actually more than a feeling :-)) they are on an old 486 DX66V Gateway PC (pre-Pentium) or on an old external hard drive somewhere around the house.  If I can find them, I'll make another upload of them and add it to my website as a zipped WinRAR file and post the link.
