Kev, IIRC this was initially cut with the EQ wrongly set for a normal speed cut rather than for a half speed. This was then rectified on 43453.

Wow, where did you dig that LF version?
Wasn’t it released on some sort of Rough Trade compilation? That’s my favourite version.
Respect sir! :sunglasses:

Yes off a CD on Rough Trade called ‘Stop Me If You Have Heard This One Before’

the Dana Gavanski version is very good and my favourite.

Seattle, 17th July 1973 – one of the best Zep boots. Has a wonderful “No Quarter” with outstanding synth piano work from JPJ, a faster-than-usual “Song Remains The Same” with Bonzo (and JPJ) going at it hammer and tongs and a fantastic 36-minute “Dazed and Confused”. A superb performance all round.

Led Zeppelin, III. Omg, it’s a brisky foggy 2 degrees Celsius in Melbourne this morning. Need a bit of pace and sound pressure to get me up. :cold_face:

Not sure this is the original video, if there ever was one, but it’s pretty atmospheric.

He’s a very good singer songwriter imho. My favourite album is Breakfast in New Orleans Dinner in Timbuktu which has some great songs but that is from some while ago now. I need to investigate his more recent stuff as I have lost touch somewhat. And yes a shame not playing further north as I would have been tempted too.
