BBC Set

[Michael Shannon <michaels@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Hey Badgeholders,
  
Comments on the BBC set:

1)  On disc 1 track 11, why do they edit out "It's Your Thing" on
Communication Breakdown?  There are similar "It's Your Thing" breaks on
the other two versions of Breakdown.  It really doesn't seem to be
enough of a reference for them to worry about giving a songwriting
credit.  Maybe they are gun shy from previous problems with Whole Lotta
Love etc...But I don't see the problem.

2)  The picture on the inside back cover.  Is this supposed to be Zep
live at the BBC?  It looks a lot like the Paris '69 video.  I know the
picture on the inside front cover is from Bath '70.

3)  Why was Traveling Riverside Blues included when it is already on the
box set(s)?  One beef with Zeppelin fans is the matter of live songs
being taken out of context.  Well now TRB has been "put back" in context
and people can hear it as part of the BBC set.

4)  Of course the whole BBC set is not in it's original form but I think
they did a fine job arranging the songs to fit on two discs.  Because of
time restrictions they edited down the Whole Lotta Love medley.  They
should release a single or EP CD with the entire WLL medley to please us
fans.  Let's petition Jimmy shall we?


All For Now,
